Summer Jones only wants three things in life:
1. Keep her house plants alive.
2. Open a beautiful bed-and-breakfast.
3. Never see or speak to Beckett Valentine again.
None of those things are currently possible.
Summer Jones and Beckett Valentine are rivals and have never wanted the same things in life except for the newly for sale Horseshoe Creek Ranch. Summer thought her dreams of building a B&B would finally come true until her number one enemy decides he wants the land, too. Beckett plays dirty and refuses to give her what she wants—a common theme in their relationship—and the dream of acquiring the property turns into a living nightmare.
They might’ve been at each other’s throats since they were teens, but the stakes have never been so high. And right now, she’s more determined than ever to take down her best friend’s older brother—cowboy boots and all.
**Bless Your Heart is a small town, enemies to lovers, best friend’s older brother, contemporary southern romance with a guaranteed happily ever after. Each book in the Valentine Texas series is a stand-alone. Warning: this book contains tons of Southern sass, sarcasm, and lots of spice! Fade to black is not included.**

Bless Your Heart is the first book in Lyla’s newest series, Valentine Texas, and knows how to grab her readers and keep them vested.
I absolutely loved this enemies-to-lovers story. Beckett and Summer have lived by one another for their entire lives and Summer also happens to be Beckett’s sister’s best friend. So these have always been at each other’s throats until Beckett’s family started seeing it as sexual tension the older everyone got.
A property next to the Beckett farm has now come up for sale and both want it for their own businesses. But neither is willing to help the other out because that’s just how these two roll. But what happens when Beckett challenges Summer and she’s loses the bet and now has to go on a date with him?!?
Lyla delivered the perfect southern romance with the right amount of sexual tension. I absolutely enjoyed the banter amongst everyone, especially the siblings. There were some conversations that started to veer towards weird, but thankfully Lyla handled that well.
Overall, this is a great start to the series and I cannot see who we read about next.
