Courage of Us is book one in it’s series. It is such a great story that you can very easily get lost in! I know I did! The characters are realistic and so believable. The story felt so real, it was full of feelings and emotions, chemistry, poorly made decisions, forgiveness and second chances. It was just beautifully written and such a great, amazing read. I highly recommend giving this a read. I’m very eager to read more from the series.

Courage of Us is book one in the Code of Honor series by Brooke May. It is a gripping second chance story that pulled at the heartstrings. Patience and Duke share past and their journey is one of being lost, discovering an inner strength and determination to live a wonderful life, courage to carry on and fight for your wants and desires. It was easy to be captured by their story and captivated by their attraction and chemistry. The path was tumultuous, the feelings intense, the passion palpable, the ending sublime. A clever and heartfelt love story that will stay in my thoughts and leave its mark. 4 stars.

Friends to lovers and second chances This was an easy, quick-read with good character and story development. Told in dual POV, I connected with both characters. The author does a brilliant job of putting a unique twist on what could have been a predictable romance story. This is the first book I have read from Brooke May and I will definitely be checking out more of her work. She does a fantastic job of drawing the reader into the story. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

Patience LaClare and Duke Michaels had been best friends since they were in diapers. Everything was looking up for them as they graduated from high school. Patience was ready to drop her high school boyfriend and profess her love for Duke. But all that changed the day after graduation when Duke left Centennial, Montana to join the Marine Corps.
Seven years later, Duke is returning to Centennial after being medically discharged from the Corps. Suffering from PTSD, he knows that he still needs help from a therapist and medication. He left years ago hoping to come back from the love of his life, Patience. Instead, she had married her high school boyfriend, and so Duke stayed away.
Brooke May tells a story of love and loss in the Courage of Us. The story is written beautifully. The characters in the book are inspiring and relatable. I loved reading this book as I can relate to Patience, and her desire to be her own person after losing so much in life

Courage of Us is the story of Patience and Duke, teenage best friends, who both want to be more but as most teenagers do, they don’t communicate that to each other and life takes them on different paths. Fast forward a few years, Duke returns to town after years away in the Marines and is trying to find his way in civilian life again. He is determined that Patience is going to be a big part of that. He wants her back in his life! Patience however, is also trying to find her way in the world after a bad and emotionally abusive marriage. So the big question becomes can they find their way to each other and finally be together they way they should have been all these years??? or is the pain of the past too much for both of them to make it possible.
Courage of Us by Brooke May is a wonderful read by a very talented and creative author. Her characters have heart and depth. I am really hoping that there will be more books to follow and soon. Please tell me Ms May that Chase, Holt, Decker and Ryder are going to get stories too?

Courage of Us (Code of Honor Book 1) by Brooke May – Review by Michelle Collier
My rating 4 out of 5
Courage of Us is the first book in the code of Honor series by Brooke May. Patience and Duke are both struggling with the consequences of the choices they made in the past. You can feel their struggles and pain. They are really a pair you cheer for. I can’t wait to read the rest of this series.

Courage of Us by Brooke May a beautifully broken five-star read. This is number one in the code of honor series, and I can’t wait for more, this is a different style to what I have come to love from this author, but it was still well done and just lovely. You will feel for the characters, you will want to help them and on occasion shake them. But that’s what I adore about this author, she makes you believe in the characters, and has great chemistry and pace of the story, it flows nicely and makes it such an easy read. Do not miss this start to what I am sure will be a great series.

Courage; a strong word Patience LaClare thought she lost the meaning to.
Lost, the word she has come to know. She lost her way in a loveless marriage and stuck in a never-ending cycle of life which lacks any form of joy.
That is all about to end, she is taking Courage back and finding who she truly is meant to be. With none of her friends close to help her, Patience finds her own way to bring her life back to something she can be proud of.
Everything is about to change.
Duke
Broken; is who Marine Duke Michaels is now. Medically discharged from the Marines, he is heading home where to Centennial, Montana and the first piece of his life fell apart.
Patience
Not just a word of one’s state of being but the girl he left. She was everything to him and he let her move on with someone else. He lives with many regrets, but none are as powerful as not fighting for Patience. But things aren’t what he thought they would be once he came home.
He discovers the shell of a girl he loved and sees she is now struggling to gain Courage once more. Duke isn’t about to let her slip through his fingers for a second time.
This time, he has his own Courage to go after what he wants.
Romance author Brooke May spends her days writing whatever her overactive imagination has brewed up and her evenings reading while she works alongside her mom. Telling stories is second natural to her, from a young age she has told anyone who would listen what she had thought up. Now, a mom of two, she splits her time writing, playing with her kids, and of course, hiking, hunting, fishing, and four-wheeling in her beloved Bighorn Mountains.
While on maternity leave with her youngest, Brooke was putting laundry away when she looked at a poem she had written in high school that was framed in her son’s bedroom. That poem triggered the idea of My Cowboy and soon she was sitting in front of her computer with her infant next to her writing her first love story that wasn’t a fanfiction.

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May. This book had me completely hooked from start to finish. I love a story that makes me forget about the outside world for a bit and this definitely delivered on that. The characters are complex and draw readers into their world so completely. It was an easy fun read and just what I needed and was looking for in a read. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking. This author is definitely climbing my favorites list quickly. Can’t wait for more! Four big stars and highly recommended!

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May – Review by Krista Vaughan
Willow is such a loveable and relatable lady! She dumps a loser of a boyfriend after spending a drunken night out with her friends. Her night gave her 4 numbers and she allows herself to be convinced to call the numbers to see if she had met her true love…at a bar.. while drunk. What a bunch of winners she finds! There IS Gun, though. Their chemistry is intense and all-encompassing… And she has to avoid him to not be the “other woman”. Such a great read! Highly recommended!

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by May, but it is the first one by her that is a standalone. May is talented and it shows in the way she writes.
Willow hasn’t had much luck in the dating department. Going out with her brother and sister-in-law ends with her waking at their house the next morning. From there things go downhill and fast. The quote I chose for Willow is: “I’ll keep a hold of them until I’ve had more time to think about it.”
Gun didn’t want to think about Willow, but doing a fundraiser with her doesn’t help. Sophie leaves and all Willow does is remind him of her. The quote I chose for Gun is: “I’ll see myself out. Good-bye, Willow.”

Scorching Hot Mess is a great romantic comedy from Brooke May. I have read, and enjoyed, a few of her other books so was looking forward to reading this one. So glad that I read this book as I really enjoyed it. It’s funny and quirky and will entertain you from start to end. Poor Willow has no luck when it comes to love so when a drunken night leads her to have four napkins with phone numbers on them, her best friend pushes her to meet these men and have some fun. We all need a friend like Willow. She’s funny and quirky and a very loyal friend. My one moan about this book is Willow’s friend. I found her to controlling and pushy. I wouldn’t be able to cope with a friend like that. Luckily Willow knows how to deal with her. I also adored Gun. He’s such a strong, dependable and caring man. I was captivated by him straight away and was hoping that Willow was going to have some fun with him. If you’re up for an enjoyable, fun romance then Scorching Hot Mess is definitely the book for you. Give it a try!!

This is the first book I’ve picked up by this author, and I can honestly say I am intrigued. Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May is delightfully funny. It has all the fixings of a great romantic comedy: steam, drama, sarcasm, jealousy, betrayal, and even a blind raccoon. The protagonist, Willow Everett, is relatable and charming, as well as witty. When she meets Gun, the connection between them is obvious and the pages turn effortlessly because you just want to see how everything turns out. It was quite the ride, following her through all her misadventures in this entertaining book. Awesome characters and witty charm. I recommend this book with 4 out of 5 stars!

Scorching Hot Mess is a rom com by Brooke May. This is not the first book I have read by Ms. May, but is my new favorite by her. This story sucked me right in and I couldn’t put it down until I finished. The characters are believable, the dialogue is witty, and the romance is scorching hot. After a drunken night out, Willow finds herself with four napkins with numbers on them and no other memories of the night. It is hilarious watching her try to figure it out. I truly enjoyed this book, and highly recommend it if rom com and romance are your thing. Review by @sunbarn

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May is a fun and enjoyable read that will most definitely put a smile on your face.
Willow gets herself into a bit of a dilemma when she can’t quite piece together the events of a drunken night out. Her main clues are the phone numbers she finds on a bunch of wrinkled-up napkins. On the search for ‘Mr Right’, she decides that calling them up could help on her hunt, but things don’t quite go as she hoped. I was looking for a light-hearted read when I picked this book, but I got a lot more. The author makes the characters strong and relatable and the story funny. It was a quick read for me, mainly because I couldn’t put it down. This was my first time reading anything by Brooke May, but I will definitely lookout for more in the future.

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May. I LOVED this book. Its so good and its very realistic. Its the story of Willow Everett who by way of a hot drunken night her life is about to change. Willow is strong, sassy, loud and not about to be told what to do or how to do it. She has a best friend who is always goading her into messes and she loves her dearly. Her best friend is the reason she finally got the nerve up to dump her lazy no good boyfriend. So the drunken night happens and the only thing she has to remember that drunken night by are 4 napkins with phone numbers on them. When she finally meets a guy, Gun who she thinks she might be able to settle down with her past comes calling. Will she and Gun the hot fire fighter make it work? Read Scorching Hot Mess to find out!

I have yet to read a book by Brooke May that I did not just outright laugh while reading. This book is no exception to the rule. I was so excited to get my hands on this as soon as I saw the teasers. Scorching Hot Mess is an easy read with lots of aspects to it that almost anyone who loves to laugh could read this and find it absolutely enjoyable. I really loved our MC, Willow Everett. She is the definition of a hot mess lol. I found this catchy and relatable because this is often a phrase I use to describe my kiddos or myself lol. Someone is always having a hot mess kind of day in our house. I loved how this book read so fast as well even at a full length novel. I got to devour it on a sunny afternoon and it could not have been the more perfect read to lift my spirits. If you love witty rom coms and strong characters with some fun twists this is the book for you! I am excited to see what we will get next from Brooke May!

Scorching Hit Mess by Brooke May is an entertaining rom com you don’t want to miss. This wasn’t the first book I’ve read by this author but definitely tops my list of favorites from her.
Willow just wants what her brother and her best friend have but in order to have that, she has to get through some duds first. This is the story about how Willow found her match.
This book was so entertaining to read. Willow has quite the disastrous dating life but Brenda won’t let her give up. The characters are so relatable as is Willow’s dating experience. I couldn’t put this book down once I started. I wanted to tell that everything Willow was looking for was right in front of her but honestly her journey was worth the read!

This is a Romantic Comedy novel and is 435 pages. This story follows Willow, the hot mess. One night she gets drunk and ends up with four different phone numbers and not a very good memory of what happened that night. Willow’s friend convinces her to dump her lazy boyfriend and go on the search for her “forever”. Willow has a history of wrong guys, until she meets Gun. Instant sparks, but then she learns about Sophie. This story has the perfect amount of romance, comedy, and drama. I think my favorite was the pet blind raccoon – hilarious!

I really enjoyed this romance. I loved the lead character Willow. She is a independent young woman who knows what she wants and doesn’t want. Her attitude comes through the book and I love how funny she is.
Willows love life has been one disaster after another. After a night out when she gets very drunk she ends up with the details for 4 guys. Is one of them her Prince Charming?
One bad date leads to another and Willow starts to lose hope. But she meets Gun at the fire station and the attraction to him is so strong. Who is Gun? Is he taken or single?
With the help and advice from her best friend and brother this is a rollercoaster of laughter and tears as Willow finds her way through life.

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May is an entertaining story about a woman on a mission to find her match. This whole book has such a fun feel to it and I thought that Willow was such an entertaining character. Her and her friend combined really made me chuckle. I enjoyed reading about her and Gun. They seemed to have such a connection from the start that just felt real and engaging. It made you want to read more about them. This isn’t the first book that I have read by this author and I like the fact that I always know I am going to get a well written story when I read one of her books. This was a great read and one I thoroughly enjoyed.

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May a fun five-star read. This author always makes me smile as I read their work, and this was no different. I so enjoyed this story, Willow reminded me so much of someone I know, and she knows I think she is a hot mess. Watching her as she goes on her journey made me laugh so hard at times I snorted. There are so many great characters but Willow was the one for me.

Scorching Hot Mess was without a doubt one of the funniest stories I have read in a long time. Brooke May just captured the very essence of a thrilling and captivating read. I was enamoured by Willow and Gun. She was absolutely hilarious and her match was meat with Gun. The charismatic and enigmatic personalities were impossible to ignore, and was totally invested in them pursuing their happily ever after. Excitement was always at the turn of the page. Drama was never far behind. All that a reader could ever want at the tips of all page turning fingers. Willow and Gun were a couple that were meant to be. And the thrills and spills along the way just made their story that much more entertaining. Alcohol and raging hormones are never a good combination, but the level of passion and compatibility was electric. 4 stars

I really enjoyed this story. It was a great rom com read and one that I would highly recommend. I loved Willow, she was such a relatable character, the author really made her feel believable. There were a few laugh out loud moments between her and Gun, they had a nice amount of chemistry and attraction. The flow of the story was really good, it made it so easy to read. Overall a fantastic read and I can’t wait to read more from Ms May again in the future.

This was a lighthearted and fun romantic comedy with a realistic and lovable main character, Willow and I could not put the book down. It has plenty of romance and comedy, and a little bit of drama and suspense to keep the storyline exciting. It’s a wonderfully written heartwarming story with some real laugh out loud moments. Willow Everett only has flash backs of her drunken night and four wrinkled up napkins that all have phone numbers on them. With her best friends encouragement Willow dumps her lazy boyfriend and goes on a journey to find ‘her forever’. Unfortunately just when she thinks she has found this in the kind, funny and handsome Gun she learns about Sophie. Not wanting to be ‘that type of women’ Sophie tries to ignore the attraction between them but this only gets harder each time they meet. The obvious chemistry between Willow and Gun really comes across in the narrative and I loved the interactions between the two of them. The storyline flowed well and the plot had enough twists in it to keep me happily turning the pages. An enjoyable and engaging read.

I was concerned about this book as it is out of realm of my normal genres. Also, I wasn’t familiar with the author as I haven’t read any of her previous books. However, I will say that after reading this book I am going to check out some of her other books because that’s how much I enjoyed reading this one. I must say that I found this to be a very well written romantic story. The characters were very relatable I thought and while filled with their romantic journey there was quite a bit of drama mixed in as well. I found myself laughing out loud at a lot of the mess that she has managed to get herself into that makes her a “hot mess”. In fact, there were some instances that made me think back to several of my friends during their college years. This was a quick read for me because I found myself turning the pages to get to the end of the story. I was intrigued from the first chapter to see where and what was going to happen with this train wreck, and I wasn’t disappointed. It was a wild but fun ride.

Scorching Hot Mess by Brooke May is a rom com and flowed well from start to end. Brooke brings her loveable, quirky, and realistic characters to life. They are believable and you become invested in them. This story has a little bit of everything in it, from drama and fun, sarcasm and drunken nights, to holly hotness and lazy boyfriends, to frustration and love and of devil besties. Brooke is really good at writing rom com and always makes me laugh out loud and getting funny looks on the bus.
Willow Everett is definitely a hot mess. She is also sassy and bold, funny, and feisty and after one drunken night her life is about to change.
I enjoy Brooke’s writing and haven’t read anything I have not liked from her. I mean who doesn’t like a blind racoon as a pet?

After Willow Everett has some unfortunate luck in love, she and her quirky friend have a night on the town. When Willow’s drunken night leaves her with four phone numbers and some fuzzy memories, she bravely embarks on a mission to find a decent love match among them. Meanwhile, a connection forms with a rather interesting man, Gun, through a few twists of fate. Despite what Willow knows of another woman, by the name of Sophie, in Gun’s life, Willow can’t help but feel a connection to Gun. Scorching Hot Mess will lead you on a crazy ride of romance that will have you rooting for the heroine’s happiness.
