Emma has a bad history of her past and what her ex has done to her. She is all about not settling. She has rules and boundaries, that is until she meets Liam. He’s usually a one and done kind of guy. Emma tries to keep Liam at arms length. But they both want more than just a hook up, and they are both falling for each other. Emma is so guarded but Liam breaks through it with her. I love the character building, and how they can work through things. There are lots of steamy parts but in all the right places to build up the story.

Liam and Emma will pull you into their world so fast. I instantly felt a connection to each character. Their relationship is fun to watch grow and become something neither knew they were looking for. Emma is so sassy and her character is fun. Liam is just as fun mixed with his protective nature is the best recipe for the perfect book boyfriend. This one is definitely spicy so have a fan at the ready. It’s well written with characters you connect with and root for easily. Five stars and highly recommended.

Emma is working her way to becoming a Sommelier but with school, work and an Ex- boyfriend she would rather forget she has no time for a relationship. Hook ups are fine but need to leave by the morning as she does not want to get her heart broken again, but when a handsome, dashing man walks into the bar she may have to rethink her whole dating life.

Liam is a player, he gives them a night and then by the end of it they need to leave. His notion on marriage and relationships is that they are not worth the energy as his only reference is his parents marriage which is non-existent, but when he meets Emma she crawls under his skin and he is doing couplie things he would not imagine him doing. So when he offers Emma an agreement can both of them come away with their hearts in tacked, you will have to read to find out.

This is the first book I have read by this author and it was brilliant flowing story. Emma was just the right amount of sass and wanting to be a wine waiter was a refreshing change to the normal career paths people go down. Liam is a confident, powerful man but in his interactions with Emma they are soft and kind, showing at times his vulnerability in his character.

The story is well developed and fast paced and the chemistry between the two characters is brilliant, the slow burn of the relationship makes it more appealing to keep reading to see if in the end their is a happy ending for the two of them. I could have done some serious damage to her ex-boyfriend but it all works out in the end lol.

Can’t wait to read more books from this author in the future.

After her ex leaves her with major trust issues and walls that she doesn’t want anyone to get past, Emma is content with one night stands. When she meets Liam, she is attracted to him…and soon, their one night stand turns into two, which turns into a friends with benefits situation. To get his inheritance, Liam must get married and stay married for a year…so their friends with benefits situation seems ideal to turn into a marriage of convenience. But, as seems to happen, feelings start emerging and the walls she has erected around her heart begins to crumble. Will these two admit the way they are really feeling…or will they part ways in a year, with Emma already seeing a broken heart in her future? Will they even make it a year?

The way these two fight their feelings made me chuckle…and want to knock their heads together! There was great character growth throughout the story and I enjoyed watching their relationship grow along the way. There were some steamy scenes scattered along the way that left no doubt that these two were compatible between the sheets! Overall, a good story that I enjoyed reading!

This book is about Liam Cross being patient and waiting for Emma Price to agree to go out with him. It’s hard because Emma’s best friend is with Liam’s best friend.
Emma usually only has one night stands. She can’t trust any man after Stuart broke her trust in the worst of ways.
Emma and Liam get along great. Their one night was so explosive that they agreed they can’t just stop at one night. I guess you can say they become friends with benefits. They both enjoy eachothers company and they are totally in sync between the sheets. Emma starts to have real Feelings for Liam and she doesn’t realize it but, he feels the same way. He tries to fight it at every turn. They have an agreement that they will get married, Emma gets paid to stay married to him for 1 year and he gets his trust fund released to him. These two really annoyed me because they are perfect for eachother. Emma knows she will have a broken heart at the end of the year.
Wi these two have a chance at a happy ending ? Will Liam ever tell Emma how he really feels or is this really just a contract that will end in a year and these two go their separate ways ? Definitely a great read but everything this author writes is amazing!

This book was a great read. I love that the main characters had issues in their pasts and did what they could to move past them by setting boundaries. Emma will only have one night stands because of her past and when she meets Liam, that is about to change. They both agree to certain rules and boundaries but they quickly find that their hearts are moving faster than they would like. There are some steamy scenes in this book that help elevate the story line. I find that these scenes aren’t throughout the book but in very strategic places and that is what helps elevate the story line. There are some surprised in the book that I didn’t see coming and that made it even better. I love the simplicity of them falling in love. It kept me turning the pages and hating that it ended. There is character development throughout the book that doesn’t smack you in the face. It is at a pace that matches the story line. It isn’t like poof the characters are different then before. There is also struggle with the growth which makes the characters more relatable. With change comes some push back and that is what happens in this book. It is a gentle tug of war within themselves that grows into an amazing story. I highly suggest reading this.

I have never read a book by this author but after reading this book I will look for more books by her. Since I am a Senior I prefer to read books that have some sex but not very explicit sex. However, I did enjoy this book.

I especially liked the characters and the story line. I hope to find a Liam Cross one day but maybe an older version because I think he may be too much for this old gal to handle.

But seriously, I did enjoy reading this book and will look for other books from her.

Before you say I do is a steaming hot contemporary romance by Marina Hanna.

This is the story of Emma who starts the book with a very hot one night stand…So many details and actually ends up being part of the character building as Emma has been badly burnt and is a one night stand kind of girl – you are not allowed to sleep over kind of girl – until she meets Liam. They cannot get enough of each other and become exclusive….. Liam pops the question as a way to get his inheritance and they decide on one year to scratch the itch of that they have for each other. One year is enough right? Guess you need to read the book to find out!!

Multi pov with some chapters having both POVs (Clearly labeled)

Before you say I do by Mariana Hanna is a fast burn. There is spice.

Emma- Bartender. Doesn’t want a relationship, and only has one nightstand due to her ex.

Liam- Lawyer “hottie” who doesn’t want anything serious but also wants only Emma.

The MCs met at a bar and after weeks of trying to get with her, the MMC finally got her information and had a chance. After having “fun” a few times they decided to become FWB- MMC idea- but both right away feel more of a connection than just FWB and don’t speak on it. There are twists in the plot and has a HEA ending even though it seems it might not. I personally didn’t care for the beginning of the book, but it did get better so if you are struggling just give it some time before deciding if you want to continue or not.

This is the first book I have read by this author, and she did not disappoint. It’s a contemporary romance story. Emma is not looking for romance but with Liam it seems to find her, for both of them, unexpectedly. The story goes great and is a great read. It keeps your attention and you won’t want to put it down. I will definitely be reading more from this author!

This was a good 4 star read. I really liked these characters and their story right from the start. Emma has been hurt in the past and has a rule of one night stands only. However when she meets Liam things change. Liam suggests something to her that will change things for both of them. But, will they be able to stick to the rules or will their hearts get in the way. The author did a great job with her writing and I didn’t want to put it down. I had to see what was coming next. There are some twists and turns that added a great element to the story. I look forward to reading more from this author, 1-click and get started today.

This book was a great romance book with a few adult scenes but the story line is worth the read. Emma and Liam’s budding relationship continues to draw you in. It’s a perfect picture of people that have been jaded by previous relationships and don’t want to risk the hurt again. It keeps you guessing until the very end.

One Night stands is all Emma will do after being so badly treated by her EX then along comes Liam who agrees to her terms but it soon becomes obvious that they both want more of each other. So when Liam comes up with the idea of them marrying simply so he can receive his trust fund earlier, they both see the benefit in being able to spend more time together, in other words more amazing sex but with an end date to their relationship. Simple right??? Oh so not simple at all! This storyline will keep you turning page after page in your quest to find out what happens next with these wonderful characters. You don’t want to miss this!

This is a contemporary romance that is such a great read with all the feels! This story is about Emma and Liam. Thanks to her ex, Emma only wants one-night stands. That is, until she meets Liam. She only meant it to be one night. One night turned into a lot of nights. Now she is at an impasse. She never meant to fall in love.

Before You Say I Do is a wonderfully written Contemporary Romance that I absolutely loved reading. I’ve read several books by this author and this may be my favorite yet. Her characters are real, fully developed and relatable. They make the story fly off the pages and you find yourself not only invested in the characters but the story to. Her style of writing and attention to detail makes for an amazing story. This is Emma and Liam’s story. She’s only interested in one night stands, she doesn’t allow them to stay over. This all changes with him. Their one night turned into more and more . But what will happen when skeletons come out? Can these two have a relationship they both deserve ? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. Im already looking forward to reading more from this Author.

This book is a brilliant contemporary romance story that pulls you in right from the word go. For me, this book is definitely all about the characters. I really enjoyed watching the relationship between the main characters develop from a one night stand to something more.
The story is a well written book and I liked the pace that the author had achieved. It added to the overall feel of the book and, for me, made it so much more engaging. I wanted to see how things would play out and what was in store for the characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from the moment I started reading.

4 Stars

 

Before You Say I Do by Marina Hanna is a contemporary romance with plenty of chemistry, steam, ‘ex’ drama, emotion, and just enough angst to keep things interesting.
This was a fun read that had me invested right from the get-go. As expected from Ms. Hanna, it entertained me the whole way through. We follow Liam and Emma through their highs and lows, as their ‘one-night-stand’ turns into more- will they take a chance on love? Well worth the read to find out.
Another great read from this talented author. Looking forward to whatever Ms. Hanna has in store for us next?
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Marina Hanna!

Before You Say I Do by Marina Hanna is a captivating contemporary romance. I have read many of Marina’s books and have fallen in love with every one of them. Marina’s writing draws me into her stories and had me completely intrigued.
The characters are wonderfully real, and you become very invested in their story. Marina also has a wicked sense of humour that shines through in her words. Although Before You Say I Do is a quick read it has everything to keep the pages turning. I was engrossed and engaged, and I loved every minute of it.
The chemistry is smoking, sexy, steamy and sizzles right off the page. With lots of passion, desire, some sass, there are intense moments, some angst and drama making some fabulous reading.
She only meant it to be one night, but she couldn’t get enough. Even though she knew she should stay away. Mor than one-night leads to heart ache.
Do yourself a favour and start reading Marina’s books today.
