Piece of Me by Juliana Stone

5 stars

  These two, and their kids, just wormed their way right into my heart! Of course, that meant that anything that hurt them, wounded me as well. For the most part, this is two people getting to know each other and falling in love. She’s been burned, he’s been non-committal, but the freight train that is their feelings won’t be denied. A bit of drama with our side characters (can’t wait for that story to be told) and a mishap for our couple, that, after everything is thought out and acted on, only brings them to the HEA that they so richly deserve <3

audiobook

Marissa and Koda kept everything hopping, all the time, as every string they unravelled led to more questions! There is a mystery to solve here, and these two agents are devoted to solving it, the attraction growing between them, well, that is for later, or now, or whatever, you know. Lots of action, lots of heat, and a few giggles, as they get to the bottom of everything while falling in love <3

The Villains We Make by Natasha Knight

5 stars

Every twist led to another, and then it still all fell apart! I loved the way this story played out, and a big part of that was that I loved Silas and Ophelia. The way things started, progressed, and finalized with them, such a natural growth, from the kids they had been, to the adults they became, to the life they are experiencing now. I also totally felt that things didn’t tie up in a nice neat bow, and while our couple has closure, life still has frayed edges that simply get to be that way, and that’s okay. Lots of heat, lots of intrigue, some tears, and a great big HEA for our couple <3

Cage of Ice and Echoes by Pam Godwin

5 stars

My emotions were all over the place reading this! There was bone-crushing despair, heart wrenching pain, pulse pounding fear, soul lifting happiness, and skin tingling heat. Even though the story is told in different characters POV, I didn’t need to headers to tell me who, I could tell by their narrative who we were seeing into the psyche of. This is book two of three, and while one piece is solved, it seems like a million more are more scrambled than ever. Exactly like the first book, these people are living rent free in my head, and I don’t see that changing any time soon, it is that compelling and consuming

Two widows. One wedding dress. And a promise of forever in the next installment of the Wilder Brothers.

Moments for You, an all-new second chance, small town romance from New York Times bestselling author Carrie Ann Ryan is now available!

A wedding dress is meant to be worn only once.

When a stranger finds herself in need of a miracle at the last minute, I do the unthinkable: I offer mine to her.

The same one I wore down the aisle for my late husband.

Now I’m invited to the wedding and finding myself wondering why I shut myself away from the world for so long.

I’m only meant to be at the Wilder Retreat for a single day except I go home with not only a job offer, but the promise of something more.

Ridge Wilder is hiding secrets of his own. And the undeniable chemistry between us burns before we even contemplate taking that first step.

Only I’ve already had my happy ever after. I never planned on finding another.

And Ridge is even far more broken than I am—with a past that might come back to haunt us both.

Moments for You is now available on ALL retailers in eBook, Paperback, Special Edition paperback, and audio with Teddy Hamilton and Samantha Brentmoor. It's also on Kobo Plus and Libraries for those who love subscriptions! https://geni.us/MomentsYouChoice

Moments For You by Carrie Ann Ryan

5 stars

I really liked these two! Both people have experienced loss which was compounded by what happened afterwards. Both people have had their own way to deal with their grief and pain, and are on their way to healing. Neither is exactly where they want to be, but willing to try and get there in their own way. They make each other stronger, they help each other accept themselves, and they understand there will be set backs. Much like them, before I knew it, I loved them, and was so happy for their HEA <3

Spare Me by Tara Sivec

5 stars

audiobook

I didn’t realize I needed Ryan’s story until I had it, and I think it is my favourite of the series! He is such a nice guy, and Dani empowers him to stand up for himself. Even all their miscommunications happen because they are both being nice to the other, or so they think. Watching these two stumble and act out of their normal character, but totally who they are, was all sorts of fun and definitely swoon-worthy <3

With This Fling by Tara Sivec

4 stars

Ah, a mature couple, always a good story! Older, more jaded, and not any wiser, these two are heat personified from their first meeting, and it only keeps growing from there. They are not immune from the hijinks of Summersweet though, though they do try and reign it in a bit…. sometimes 😉

First and Tension by Tara Sivec

4 1/2 stars

audiobook

Ah, Fake Dating the football player you’ve had a crush on forever, like that wasn’t going to become real and scary for you! These two had a lot of push and pull, and at times Emily truly annoyed me, but Quinn more than made up for it. Loved when they made the other admit it was never fake for them, so they could get on with the real thing <3

audiobook

Swing and A Mishap by Tara Sivec

5 stars

audiobook

I loved these two! So bumbly and well-meaning and stuck as their teenage selves, but as grown adults with needs, wants, and desires, oh, and of course, baggage. Loved, loved, loved, our hero, he really is every woman’s dream, so it is understandable that Wren doesn’t trust it. As sweet as these two are together, the heat and chemistry between them is just as evident, and they easily flip and slide from one to the other <3

In Bed With The Bachelor by Megan Crane

 4 1/2 stars

These two were just perfect together, I couldn’t think of a better couple to be stranded, in a snowstorm, with only one bed! These Grey’s have their issues, and Jesse has a good reason. Micheala, I just loved her, so smart, a bit naive, but also having self-confidence. It really was inevitable these two would end up together, and it was refreshing that they both realized it <3

Come Home for Christmas Cowboy by Megan Crane

4 1/2 stars

Oh, queue the angst and pain, and fretting over how this beautiful couple will ever work this out!?!?! Right in the heart, right from the start. Lots of baggage and lack of communication to work through, and all the self-reflection that comes with that. By the end though, they are so much better, plus, him saying “I will come after you 100% of the times you leave me”, that was just perfection <3

The Heroes We Break by Natasha Knight

4 stars

Wow, that ended with a pretty big twist and lots of questions to be answered! This seemed like a pretty standard rich people doing bad things, and then, and then, the lid is popped off and this is way, way, more than that. Ophelia and Silas, they don’t seem to fit, but there is definitely something there. She seems much more suited for Ethan, but that doesn’t feel right, and then we find out why. This has all sorts of secrets, and it seems like they are just getting started. Cannot wait for the second half of this duet to have it all exposed!!!
