4 Star!!!!

Wow what more can I Say? This is the third book in tihs series I have read and oh boy I sure was not let down. I really have enjoyed this author’s take on a reverse harem. I find that the series is refreshing and unique. I have really enjoyed reading this series.

The characters are all very well written. I like how there is not just romance but a bit of drama too. Even though this is paranormal the characters have real life issues and this makes it so much better to read as it isn’t predictable and the reader can relate to the characters better. I cannot wait for more from this series.

Something Lost (Funerals and Weddings Series Book 1) by Bernadette Marie

Something Lost is the first book in the Funerals and Weddings Series by Bernadette Marie. This is a Contemporary Romance about second chances. I absolutely loved this book and being pulled in from the beginning I was lost in the pages and had to know what was going to happen next. I’ve read several books by this author and I’m a huge fan and this looks kike this series will go on my re-read list as well. There were parts of this story my heart ached and my emotions were all over the place but it could have had something to do with my life at that moment. This is Rachel and Craig’s story. These two were a thing in high school he was the star football player and she was the coach’s daughter. Things happened and it tore them apart but they are brought back together years later after her dads funeral. Can these two get a second chance? But will past secrets tear them apart again? I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Something Lost was a really good read! It was entertaining, romantic, emotional and had some funny bits in it as well. If you’re looking for a feel good, happy ending type of story this one is it. Bernadette Marie’s books all seem to follow a similar style and this one is no different. Picking up one of her books is like a comfort because you always know what to expect. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I can’t wait to read the next installment in this series!

For one, I would like to state that this book has many surprises, but I am so glad, because man were they SO GOOD! You first start out at a funeral of a loving coach, father, and husband. You are introduced to his family, as well as his main students he took pride in and watched all of them from afar. When his daughter finds one of those members again, another story rekindles and begins there. There are a lot of twist and turns, past and present, and lots of love, relationships, and friendships that are everlasting. I cannot wait to continue reading this series!

There was so much in the book I don’t even know where to start. So we start with a funeral, which was not a surprise given the series is called Funerals and Weddings. The beloved coach is gone and “his” has come to pay their respect. What will happen when Rachel and Craig meet again? I laughed and cried through this book. Definitely will be reading the next book!

A touching story of a rekindled love from a decade before. The bond between the two characters is so strong that nothing can keep them apart. Following them through their journey to re-discover what they once had pulls at the heart-strings. Although much happens to try and keep their happiness at bay…..everything happens for a reason. As you get caught up in their romance it’s hard to put down the book, you want to just know what happens next. Will they get their happily ever after? Or will it all be taken away?

Something Lost is the first book of the Funerals and Weddings series by Bernadette Marie. Rachel Diaz has just lost her father and at his funeral the one man who stole her hearts returns, Craig Turner. Can Rachel put aside her demons and get a second chance at love?

This story was well-written and enjoyable on many levels. You feel every emotion from these characters, that at one point I wanted to just hug them. I am looking forward to more books from the other Fab 5.

There are so many good things that I could say about this book! The first book in the Funerals and Weddings series by Bernadette Marie, Something Lost is a great start to what I assume will be a fantastic series!

When his college basketball coach dies from illness, Craig Turner goes to his funeral and reconnects with multiple people from his past, including the coach’s daughter Rachel. Ten years had passed since he had seen her last, but the chemistry between them proves to be strong as ever as they reconnect over the span of the book.

One of the things that I loved about the book was the focus on mental illness. It was interesting to see just how much mental illness can impact a family. I hope that the future books in the series also focus a bit on mental illness, because the author did a very good job at making the reader relate to and understand what the characters were going through.

I love and appreciate the concept of second chances. I cherish rectifying wrongs, healing past hurts and mending broken relationships. I thought that Something Lost was a typical second chance story- but imagine my delight when I found out that it was something more! While I understand the importance of primary characters, I also relished the interactions of the secondary characters. This novel encompasses broken relationships, not only intimate relationships but also friendships and family relationships. Something Lost has so many layers and beautiful complexities. There are some triggering scenes; however, it does not take away from the novel but adds a realistic point of view to the book. I wholeheartedly recommend Something Lost and hope that you too will have that second chance to mend that which is broken and turn it into something beautiful.

Bernadette Marie did a great job at creating her little world within this series. I have so far only read the first book but I absolutely adore books that follow character storylines from other perspectives.
“Something Lost” is a fantastic palette cleanser for someone who is in the need of a light hearted romance with a bit of a spin. The entire story has you thinking “what’s going to happen next?!”; each sentence is like a cliffhanger!
The minute detail that was included, simply to bring the scene together in the reader’s head was absolutely on point. 10/10 would recommend!

This is book 2 of 3 in a series of the Australian Outback! The author Nicole Flockton builds great characters and story lines. I can’t wait for book 3.

I absolutely adore the Bunya Junction series by Nicole Flockton that focuses on the Carruthers siblings and finding their match. In this second in the series, Runaway to the Outback, we find out more about Jonas Carruthers, the local pub owner of Bunya Junction. One day, a woman, Pandora Sebastian, walks into his pub in a wedding dress. Speculation of being a runaway bride leads to the discovery that Pandora is a model and has run off her photoshoot. She escapes to the small town of Bunya Junction and discovers that the small town is in fact a wonderful place full of people who genuinely care for others. We follow the tale of Jonas and Pandora and discover to trust in others along the way.
I enjoy the people of Bunya Junction and how the are all there for one another. This is such a rare thing these days that I instantly want to meet these characters in the real world. I appreciate the secondary story lines mixed throughout the main one, such as Ray, the sweet and lovable storyteller of the pub and town. Although sometimes I wanted to yell at Jonas for being a sulking and stubborn man, he is a great character and takes criticism well from his siblings. I also appreciate the tease into the 3rd book about Scott and now I anxiously await its release.

Something Lost by Bernadette Marie is book one of the Funerals and Weddings series. Second chance romances are one of my favorite tropes and this book is no exception!

Craig and Rachel broke the rules when they dated in high school but that didn’t stop them from falling in love. As it does, the real world got in the way and they both went separate ways. Now they are forced back together. Craig and Rachel have both experienced some highs and lows since they’ve been separated but there is some rekindling of their spark when they see each other again. They definitely have hurdles in their way. Can Rachel face her traumas to be with Craig and can he handle the baggage or will these two fizzle out like they did before?

I enjoyed this book. There was a lot of emotion and the characters were well developed. It really felt like you were right next to them going through this story. I can’t wait to see what this series has in store for the rest of the characters!

I also loved that this book let us see what happened to Ryan and Sindy after the first book. This series is quickly becoming a favorite because the characters are so relatable.

Runaway to the Outback by Nicole Flockton is the second book in the series A Welcome to Bunya Junction Romance. Jonas Carruthers runs the pub in Bunya Junction, a meeting place for the locals. One Saturday afternoon, the pub patrons cease their conversations when a bride walks into the pub. The bride isn’t a local resident and as the bride walks towards the bars and sits down in front of Jonas all he can ask is, “What can I get you?” It is scenes like this that Ms. Flockton does a wonderful job describing to bring you into the world of Bunya Junction that gets me sucked into reading her books. I love the way Jonas and Pandora Sebastian (the woman who isn’t a bride but is a famous model) begin talking to each other and finding they interact and work together well. I really enjoyed this book and had a good laugh at the last scene. I hope you love it as much as I did!

This book touched on some deep situations, grief being one of the biggest. Craig and Rachel dated secretly behind coach Diaz’s back, but things ended years before they reunited. Something Lost is a story that shows, the heart wants what it wants. I enjoyed this book because it was realistic. It was just fairytales and rainbows. Real life issues surrounding grief are very well displayed.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If only they would allow me to give me more options for the stars! I want to give this a solid 4.5 because I have loved everything by Krysten Lindsay Hager that I have managed to get my hands on. This is an adorable YA romance. Emme has had a tough time after breaking up with her previous boyfriend. Trust is a difficult thing to come by, especially when you’re attempting to trust someone that you feel is so far out of your league. Constantly comparing yourself to their exes and everyone else that finds themselves in their inner circle. Brendon appears to be far more down to earth than anyone on the outside looking in could have predicted. He wants more out of life than what his family has planned for him and he has his sights set on Emme. Their relationship goes through typical ups and downs that you would expect with a high school couple, but there are subtle differences that make this book stand out from the rest and make it so enjoyable to read. The amount of emotions I had while reading this is one of the main reasons I will always grab a KLH book when I have the opportunity! Get this for yourself or recommend it to someone who loves YA romance and would enjoy the amazing storytelling for themselves!

I have not read the first book in this series but make no mistake I’m going to go grab it now and read it quick! Who doesn’t want to be a supermodel? Pandora maybe? She will have to decide while she is hiding out in the small town. Then you have Jonas and the town not making things easy for her. Pandora finds she is falling in love with the whole town. I truly love this story and can’t wait to get the first book and any that come after.

In an instant, Author Bernadette Marie, has a new fan! Something Lost was a wonderfully sweet story that brought out so many different emotions in myself as I read through it. Dealing with grief is never easy and so many Authors attempt to bring out the pain their characters feel in a very real way. Ms. Marie has not only accomplished that, but made me care deeply about the characters as well. I had a real connection with Rachel and Craig. I found myself unable to put this book down and finished it in two days time. I cannot wait for the next novel by Bernadette Marie! As I said in the beginning she has a fan for life!! You won’t regret reading one of her extraordinarily impressive, emotional, beautifully written tales!

Bernadette Marie’s Something Lost, brought my empathy out in full force! I absolutely enjoy the story! Fantastic character development throughout. I was happy, sad, angry, and even cried some while reading Craig and Rachel’s story.
Rachel being a goner the minute she noticed Craig. Craig felt the same but promised his coach, her father, that he would stay away from her. Till one day they got caught. Craig disappeared and withdrew from everyone. Rachel spiraled down a path that almost lost her, her life.
10 years after Craig graduated college he returns to support the Diaz family whose patriarch, and his former college coach, has passed away. While reuniting with his teammates he hears the voice of the one who got away behind him. He’s always loved Rachel and little did he know she’s always felt the same.
The trials and tribulations of the adventures they are about to both embark on, is what kept me reading.
The author created a very real world and realistic story that could happen to anyone. Like I said at the beginning it brought my empathy out in full force. I felt like I knew these people, that I was also part of their friends group. When tears came to my eyes at one point, I knew the author had me. Had me not only push forward in this story to find out what was going to happen, but had me wanting to read anything she has ever written.
The title of it might be Something Lost, but it’s really about Something(s) found!

The meet cute between these two is great! When she shows up on scene she could have been high-browed and snooty but she was cool, collected and made the meet between them fun.

I really enjoyed catching up with Ryan and Sindy as well as getting to know more about Scott. I am thinking his story will be next.
