I absoluetly loved this book! I could not get enough and enjoyed flipping every page until it was done! It was an easy read with great characters who had nice development throughout the entire store and even though it was set in a different time there wasn’t many if any period discrepancies that took away from the focus of the book! I loved how descriptive the author was and how well readers were truly brought into the story! I look forward to reading more by this author!

Philip has a problem.
Namely, his relationship to the throne.
Well, that and paparazzi hounding him, plus family obligations on steroids.
Years ago, the notoriously private Earl of Arburne and Glasgow’s #1 most eligible bachelor decided relationships were impossible with his unique pressures.
So he avoids anything serious. Hell, he avoids dating at all.
When he lands in yet another tabloid headline, he has the brilliant (or brilliantly stupid) idea to give the tabloids what they want.
A romance.
No one needs to know it’s fake.
But when he enlists beautiful, bold, and outspoken Anna McDonnell, his best friend’s little sister, he finds himself with a whole new set of troubles.
Anna’s rules for their ruse make their arrangement feel far from pretend. Counterfeit feels more and more like something authentic.
And in the realm of royalty and public scrutiny, anything real and pure can’t survive.
Philip has a problem.
Will this liason be a love-match or will their fling fall flat?
Fairly Royal is the page-turning third book in The Fair Series of contemporary romances. If you like bold heroines, billionaire heroes, and plenty of steam, then you’ll adore Grace Grahme’s royal romance.

I love reading and I love writing even more- I balance (not always successfully) writing, a career, a family, and a menagerie of rescued dogs, cats, and backyard chickens.
Writing allows me to live vicariously through my characters, escape to worlds and experiences I might never have, and my characters always have a witty response or a perfect retort. (no more 5 hours later having the thought of ‘that’s what I should have said!’)
I’m an avid coffee consumer and adult beverage fan. I love catching up with my friends on Marco Polo and working out at the gym. I avoid cleaning, cardio, and carbs- unless it’s an emergency.
I carve out writing time by starting my day at 515am. Which unfortunately means I’m in bed earlier than I’d like. And I still don’t get my to-do list done!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Amber Waves of Grace is a story about a girl who moves back home after her fathers accident, to help with the family farm. When she moves home, she has more obstacles than keeping the farm going. Her old love that did not end well, is now the pastor of her church. While old emotions and memories are coming to the surface, she is also starting to have new feelings for her ex’s older brother.
I can’t say enough good things about this book. I really enjoyed it right from the beginning. The characters are very well developed and there is a lot more to the story than a simple love triangle. There is mystery and sabotage. Laughter and tears. I highly recommend this book and I can not wait to read more from this very talented author.

My first book by this other and I can’t wait to see what else was written. Instantly hooked. I can’t believe I missed out on this author for so long. I love how she deals with real-world problems in a gentle way. Even though I hadn’t read other books by this author I never felt like I was missing out on anything. I think we need more than 5 stars here! Highly Recommend!

Amber Waves of Grace by Jessica Berg
I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of this book & how much I enjoyed it. I wasn’t sure how well I would be able to relate to the farm life, however the emphasis on family loyalty, struck a chord with me and I was instantly hooked. This book had it all—sweet romance, compelling mystery, & insight to the hard choices we make when family is involved! Great read! Highly recommend. 5 stars!
Corrie Lancaster leaves the life she had built for herself and returns to the family farm after a tragic accident leaves her dad with a brain injury and unable to man the farm. It’s harvest time when Corrie returns, however she is short staffed—that is until the Tuttle brothers step up & offer to help run the farm. Luke Tuttle, was “the one” in Corrie’s mind, until he left her broken-hearted. Corrie is still angry & hurt and the way Luke ended the relationship and is having a hard time putting the past behind her. Luke’s older brother Aaron, is a rock and seems to be there every step of the way for Corrie, regardless of the circumstances. While there is no denying the attraction between the two, Corrie isn’t sure if she can put her heart in the hands of another Tuttle and trust that she won’t end up devastated once again. Excellent read! Highly recommend.

Key to His Heart by Kristina Beck – Review by Christina Gran
Key To His Heart by Kristina Beck
Phenomenal love story—the love everyone wishes that they had! I loved this book so much! Leaves the reader feeling all the feels & believing that soulmates really do exist! First book I’ve read from Kristina Beck, but absolutely won’t be my last. I can’t wait to find another one of her gems to dive into.
Divorced & pregnant, Katrina Klenkos moves to a quaint, small town in PA….hopeful to regroup & raise her baby, far away from her previous life. Kat feels that she has FINALLY found “home”, and is determined to give her precious baby a life very different than she had.
TJ, a former NFL star, returns to Golden Crest after hanging up his football cleats! TJ is enjoying retirement teaching & coaching at the high school he attended, however something is missing from his life. When TJ & Kat’s paths cross, there is an immediate attraction, and a feeling of knowing they can’t explain. While the fire continues to simmer among these two characters, there are some twists & turns that occur which could prevent them both with having the “happily ever after” they both so desperately desire.

Paige and the Reluctant Artist by Darci Garcia
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Paige is a New York art curator who comes across this beautiful painting and she just has to know the artist. Her boss is able to locate the artist and sends Paige to the beautiful scenery of Montana to convince him to showcase in their gallery. Paige meets up with Mark who makes no qualms in telling her that he is not interested in any way, shape, or form of being an artist in their gallery. He doesn’t, however, hide his immediate interest in Paige.
I loved this super quick read and would recommend this author. It’s the first book I’ve read of hers but her characters are loveable and relatable. The writing style has a great flow to it and is believable. I look forward to more of her work!

Paige is a curator at a gallery in New York City. She is really good at her job and especially likes to find new artists to showcase in the gallery. When she spots an amazing painting of a horse by Mark Richard’s who lives in Montana. Mark is not a big fan of sharing his art so Paige decides to fly out to Montana to speak to Mark in person. What they don’t realize right away is their mutual attraction of each other.
The story is easy to read, I connected to the characters and got invested in their thoughts and feelings, and the descriptions of Mark’s home and pastures make you feel like you’re in Montana. Overall it is a cute story of love at first sight that takes you through a couple who’s finding if they can overcome past relationship issues and become a couple.

KISS A THIEF by Marina Hanna
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Kiss a Thief is a fast-paced contemporary romance with some mystery and angst thrown in! Once you begin the first few pages, buckle up because it is going to be a fast, bumpy, but thoroughly enjoyable ride!
Our story opens up in an art gallery where Mia works for the boss from hell. She is just paying her dues, hoping one day to open her own gallery. In walks the sexy billionaire Dylan Knight who captures her attention when she sees him admiring a piece of art. What begins as a sexy flirtation turns to lust and then much more! Yet, their road to happiness will be full of bumps, and I found myself rooting so hard for this couple, hoping they would get their HEA.
I was expecting a steamy romance, but what I wasn’t expecting was the great suspense and adventure which just added more layers to the book. Without spoiling anything, that little twist added trust issues for both characters, and that, in turn, added more layers and made the characters multi-faceted and complex. If you are looking for a quick, sexy read with some suspense, give Kiss a Thief a try!

This book was great well written and full of great characters, very descriptive and overall wonderful. It’s hard being a farmer physically mentally and emotionally and this book really just gives you a great description on how farming can either come together or it can come apart. The author a does a good job and letting you know the ends and outs of farming and all that it entails. This book is full of redemption, struggle, and family drama but it all comes together and works out well. I would recommend this book to someone who enjoys romantic moments, and real-life struggles. Looking forward to reading more by this author.

I don’t believe I have read from this author before however that changed with this book. It was a great read full of all the goods! Action, suspense, chemistry, and the perfect amount of surprise.

As always when starting a new book, you never truly know what to expect. As with this read I wasn’t sure myself but I was not disappointed to say the least. When family falls on hard times, family helps family no matter what. Exactly what Corrie the main character does. This book was such a great read, ALL the characters were nothing short of amazing. The author gives a very detailed description of what it truly takes to own, live on and make a farm life work. Oh there’s a heartfelt romance that brews too 😉 This book, brought out all the feels for sure! Really glad I gave it a read.

Amber Waves of Grace
I almost didn’t read this book, but changed my mind for some reason. I’m so glad I did because I really enjoyed this book. I think the main takeaway for me from this book is how valuable family is, no matter how they come to be family.
This book had a lot happen in what seemed to be a pretty short period of time. Injuries, conflict, suspense and love are just a few of the things that happen.
Corrie is definitely the oldest sibling of the three and it’s obvious from the beginning. Those of us that are the oldest can spot our own. She takes over the farm when her family needs her even though she had to leave the life she made to do it. It may have been the best decision should could have made for herself, not to mention her family.
If you’re looking for a sweet love story and about family and their importance in your life I would recommend you give this one a try.

Meet Corrie who is brought back to the family farm when a devastating accident leaves her father disabled.
There is so much work and she’s terrible at asking for help…but it will come in ways she didn’t expect.
Her ex boyfriend with a complicated past comes back into her life and his brother Aaron who Corrie could find herself falling in love with.
And then a mysterious pregnant women comes into their life but mysterious fires come with her.
This story is full of mystery, characters you can fall in love with and a sweet love story.
This one kept my attention… definitely worth a read!

So so delightful! The story and the characters are full of love, tears and just moving forward in life. The main storyline does have a few harder issues but it blends in perfectly with the story and doesn’t overshadow the true reason. I admire the strength of Corrie! She impressed the heck out of me! She is a “just do it” woman. Going back to the farm was fun for me as well. Its a reminder of all the things that can go wrong but don’t let it overshadow the good too. When she is eating that tomato from the gardern—I could taste the freshness and its a reminder of why farmers farm.
Overall this was a quick read as I struggled to put it down. All the characters from the main ones to the secondary were perfect and memorable. This is a wonderful story

I enjoyed this romance story. This is my first book by this author which I look forward to seeing what is next for them. I enjoyed how I was pulled into the story from the start by the characters. They are strong, supportive and relatable which just added to the story. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout. This is a fast paced story that was written with a lot of heart and it shines through with the characters. This is a well written story that has great chemistry and emotional parts. A story where romance could be a second chance but also forgiveness for betrayal. A story that is easy, entertaining to read and just hard to put down. The growth of the plot added to the story which had me coming back for more. I really enjoyed reading this book and I highly recommend it.

This is a really heartwarming and beautifully written romance. I loved the authors writing style and the characters. Corrie is such a strong and determined character who’s love for her family and her faith in things being the way the should be keeps her moving forwards no matter the odds against her.
When she returns back to the family farm to help after her father’s accident it’s not somewhere Corrie saw herself returning too. But farming runs in her blood and even though she is overwhelmed she fits back into farm life as if she never left.
When she is left needed help the brother of her ex flame offers her help. This bring her old flame Luke back into her life, wanting to rekindle things, however with his past betrayals this isn’t possible for Corrie.
When things start to get worse with her parents marriage, the stress of the farm and the younger siblings and someone from their past out for revenge she turns to Lukes brother Aaron. But when feelings of friendship turns into attraction it just adds another complicated situation to an already complicated life.
You will fall in love with this story and characters and you will be inspired by Corrie’s determined nature to make sure she does what is right by everyone she cares for, even when things are against her.

This book was a really sweet read and one that I really enjoyed. When I first read the synopsis I wasn’t sure it would be my kind of story and worried I wouldn’t connect with the characters but I was wrong on both things! I will say that it wasn’t that instant connection but I grew to care about the characters over the story. I liked Paige, she clearly loved her job and it was important to her, the author certainly got that across well and she seemed like a genuinely nice person. I actually really liked the fact that Mark was a billionaire but not your typical one I would normally read about – it actually made for a refreshing change. There were a few slower parts in the story but as a whole I really did enjoy it and would definitely recommend to others!

I enjoyed this book a lot, made for a great afternoon read.
Billionaire romance is a small guilty pleasure in reading of mine so this was up my alley.
I liked these two main characters as they brought the chemistry and a good story with them.
I was kept along from beginning to end and now I will be watching for the next book in this series .

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A heartwarming contemporary romance which had me hooked from start to finish. Corrie Lancaster moves back to the family farm following her father’s accident, just in time to help with the harvest. When the farm’s hired hand quits, and with a bumper wheat crop needing harvesting, Corrie has to accept the help of Aaron Tuttle, her ex boyfriend’s older brother. Corrie soon starts to lean on Aaron for emotional support, as she’s busy with the farm and harvesting, but also looking after her younger siblings and having to watch her parents marriage crumble. Unfortunately, Corrie learns that her ex boyfriend, Luke isn’t over her, and when he apologises for the past and attempts to rekindle their romance, she must decide between the two brothers.
When everything is finally under control, a stranger arrives at the farm asking for shelter, and an old nemesis returns looking for revenge. Corrie must decide which man she loves and who’s love will restore her faith. Corrie is a likeable and relatable heroine of this novel, who brings the story together. I love the connection between her and Aaron and enjoyed seeing how their relationship developed throughout the story, especially with the complication of Luke reappearing. The storyline had me gripped and I found this book hard to put down down. It took me on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading it, and I felt immersed in farm life, as the setting was brought to life by the descriptive narrative. A real page turner, which I definitely recommend reading.

Amber Waves of Grace is a Contemporary Romance/ Inspirational story about finding your true purpose and unexpected love. There’s plenty of drama along the way to keep you glued to the pages. What a heart-warming yet heart breaking story that will have your emotions all over the place. This author is a fairly new author to me and I’m hooked and will definitely be checking out what other books she has written. Her wonderfully written story along with great characters makes it hard not to love. Corrie has returned home to help out her family out. Her father was injured in a accident and its harvest time. Corrie needs to hire some help and with not many choices she takes on her ex-boyfriend’s older brother Aaron. What will happen when certain obstacles occur and old feelings get involved? I absolutely loved reading this book and highly recommend reading to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

What a wonderful read. Corrie Lancaster is one very strong young woman. She is trying so hard to look after her family farm after her dads accident and its that inner strength and family loyalty that makes it hard for her to accept help. That is until Aaron Tuttle comes along. He is the older brother of an old boyfriend which brings back lots of hurtful memories but there is just something about him that she can’t resist. Again and again she is tested when things go wrong but Aaron is there for her each and every time. The question is can she let go of her past with his brother to build a future together with Aaron. This truly is a heartfelt, beautifully written story that needs to be read!

Reminders of Him by Colleen Hoover
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is my first Colleen Hoover book (I know I know I know). 10% in an I am already bawling, tears streaming down my face like I am Kenna and can feel everything she is going through, the self torture, the pain, the struggle, the fear. This book already has me by the eyeballs and I can’t put it down.
I can not with Kenna’s mother. All of the history that Kenna describes breaks my heart. As a parent how could you ever be like that with your child? A part of you?
Like Kenna and Ledger in this story I am so torn. I can feel every single thing, I found myself crying and not realizing I was crying. I found myself holding my breath, waiting on pins and needles, I found myself shaking my head and my heart filling with so much pain, empathy, and frustration for what they must be going through. Each of them.
This book deals with love, heartache, betrayal, grief in more ways than one, regret, and so much more. I could not put it down and by the end it left me way beyond spent. I can not wait to devour all of Colleen Hoover’s Books. If you love a good tear jerker book, with heartache and romance then grab this asap.

This was my first book by this author and it’s set in Australian. There are a few cultural differences between the book setting and my home country, but overall they aren’t large enough to be confusing. I felt the book jumped in a serious situation quickly and felt almost overwhelmed at the beginning. I found myself having to reread to make sure I understood the situation correctly. I think if the book was a little more of a slow burn, I would have enjoyed it more. The seriousness of the custody battle seemed rushed and left me with questions at times.

This book is a great, steamy, standalone romance story that is pretty quick to read but a good read nonetheless. Although I think the book could have benefited from a little bit more depth at times I still found myself pulled in by the characters. This, for me, is the perfect kind of book to get lost in one afternoon.
Mia and Dylan really were what this book was all about. Their story and their connection was believable and easy to get behind. The author has clearly set up the basis for other books in the series, with periphery characters from this book, and I am already looking forward to reading them.

This book was much more detailed and involved than I was expecting. I went into reading it thinking I was going to get a nice, simple romance story and instead got a book that gave me so much more. I loved the characters in the story. They all had so much about them that even the secondary characters seemed to stand out.
The story was really well developed. The author seemed to have thought everything through and pushed the story forward as it needed. This was a surprisingly good read that I thoroughly enjoyed.
