While this is a short novella. It can be listened to as a standalone that ends with a HEA. This story has everything needed to keep you intrigued as well as excited. Which is what makes for a great short story. I fell in love with both Nadia and Cade. I love a story that draws me in and keeps me interested. There was plenty of action and heart stopping moments. I am looking forward to reading more from Amy McKinley! Well Done Amy McKinley you have done it again. I am looking forward to reading more stories from you!

Fletcher – Review by Melissa Agena
I really enjoy books written by Ms. Fletcher. Many of them romances that give you hope that love can be found in many situations. In this book, Ginger who lost her husband in an accident and Johnathan (a doctor) who is still mourning the loss of his wife meet when Ginger was having complications from breastfeeding. Will these two be able to work through their issues together and grow closer? Will their hearts be open enough to find that they need each other? I love that Ms. Fletcher is also the narrator of the audio book.

This was my first ever audio book and I actually had no idea what to expect – would I like it? Would I be able to get into the story? But I have to be honest and say I was pleasantly surprise. I guess I was a little put off when I saw it was over 7 hours long and as I am a fast reader was worried I would lose interest but I found that I was able to listen at times when reading would have been inconvenient and the time actually went faster than I thought as I was engrossed in Ginger’s story.
I really liked the story, it was an emotional read and the author definitely got the feels across. I did kind of guess what might happen but that didn’t matter because I really liked the characters that I was listening about. Ginger was a sweet character and I really felt for her with everything that happened. Her love for Rusty and Daisy just poured off the pages at the beginning and so did her grief as the story progressed. I could feel the connection she found with Jonathon, I really liked him!!
The narration of the story was good; it took me a while to get used to but the narrator’s voice had a nice soothing, melody tone to it which I found quite relaxing!
I would definitely listen to another audio book from this author in the future.

Fiona and Connor met when they were kids and life separated them only to find each other later as adults. When they are brought together again they realize they never stopped loving each other. I like this story, these two had to cross obstacles to get back together. Author Amy McKinley did not disappoint in this romantic story. It is a smooth, quick read perfect for a take along when you need something to fill time with. You will not be disappointed.
Tara Miller is a woman with a lot on her plate, she has her own restaurant in the town of and when she isn’t there, she is working on the family ranch, the Broken Bow, or her truck and it is in the middle of doing this when she sees the new deputy sheriff moving into her brother’s place next door, as he distracts her with his good looks and a body to match, but she doesn’t want to think about that, she doesn’t want to think about him and how her body reacts to him, instead when he comes over to lend a hand, she blows him off. After she finishes, showers and gets ready, she heads to her best friend’s coffee shop before heading to the restaurant to prepare for the evening’s service, some caffeine and Macy’s crazy attitude is just what she needs to take her mind off of a certain man, because of the feelings his type bring back up, she doesn’t want to think of the past and how it can’t let it repeat itself. She gets what she needs as well as a grilling over said certain man and couple of unwanted messages, one from her past job and one from her current one, she ignores the first and stresses about the current one, so she is inspired to go and get some local produce when her ordered ones don’t arrive, so she goes to get the produce and is grilled about Jace again while collecting it all, as soon as she has everything she needs, she heads over to her restaurant.
Meanwhile, Jace is unpacking the boxes of stuff from his old apartment, there isn’t much, but it is enough, he is thinking about the circumstances around his move, but it is the woman next door who his thoughts eventually turn to, he can’t understand why she doesn’t ;ole him, but he is determined to change her mind. He decides to go and visit the rest of the family who live on the ranch and let them know that he has moved in, over tea, they talk about the reason he moved there, as well as talking about both his and Tara’s past and he can’t really believe how similar their stories are, but he doesn’t want to think about that, so he decides to go and explore the ranch some more, so he borrows a horse and goes for a ride to clear his head. When he gets back to the barn and settles the horse back down, he senses that he is someone is in the barn with him, however, when he goes to look, there is nobody there, but he can’t shake the feeling that he is being watched.
Later on in the evening as Tara gets home from work, she is about to run herself a bath and put some oil in it, but as she reaches for the bath oil, she notices that it is in the wrong place and that on closer inspection, there are a lot of other things which are only just out of place, in fact, it is in every room of her house, she is very disturbed by this and so calls Jace to come over to her house and check it over, when she does, she is not expecting him to answer in just his joggers and that makes him even harder to resist, but she is too worried to dwell on it and it turns out that there has been a break in and the back door has been tampered with, so Jace insists on staying overnight on the couch to keep her company so she feels more secure. The next day a family meeting is called to discuss what has happened and to see whether it has happened anywhere else on the ranch, when a plan is formulated and everyone knows what they need to do, things go back to normal, that is until it happens again, but this time Tara is home.
As things escalate and become more dangerous, things also escalate between Jace and Tara, but can either of them let the other in and share the secrets of their past, or will they let those secrets come between them? This is a romance which is peppered with familial love, mysteries and danger, it is as unpredictable as its namesake and will keep you guessing right up until the end, but will those doing the hunting stop at nothing to get what they are after, or will the mystery be solved before anyone gets hurt?

Romantics of the world, unite, for this is a perfect book for you! K. G. Fletcher has given us a story that mixes the beautiful with the mundane, and shows that there is more to the launch of a line than fragrance bottles and the right idea. With compelling characters and a plot that keeps you on your toes, “The Nearness of You” is a phenomenal read from start to finish. I also encourage you to be prepared to be transported to the heart of Atlanta, GA as you cheer on the protagonists. Never have I seen such attention to the detail of the city, and being from Georgia, it warms my heart to see it in the spotlight.

Fletcher – Review by Victoria Mashburn
This is the first book I have read by this author and I have really enjoyed it. It is a story filled with heartbreak, mystery, and a smoking hot connection between the characters. Both the main characters have really sad and heartbreaking back stories which has helped to make them more real and more rounded as a character.
Tara has moved back home. After her husband was killed in action she gave up her life as a photojournalist and moved back to her family home town where she opens a restaurant. Even after all this time Tara doesn’t feel ready to move on. She has never had interest in anyone else. That is until her new neighbour Jace came along.
Jace has moved to be away from his memories. After losing all his family to a boating accident he needed to get away and start fresh. One thing making things more pleasant for him is his neighbour Tara.
There is no denying the connection and the attraction between them but both of their pasts are still impacting their futures. When Taras house gets repeatedly broken into Jace feel like he needs to protect her, but who is he protecting her from? Can they move forward and build a relationship together? Will their pasts hold them back? And who is breaking into Tara’s House? Is it someone from her past?

At first I wasn’t sure where this book was going, so I was kind of conflicted about how I would feel about it in the end. I was quickly sucked into the story and the characters lives. I was not so patiently waiting for the story to continue quickly so that I could find out what role each character was playing and what would happen. Nadia seems like such a sweetheart, I really like how she fell in love with Cade and couldn’t follow through with her mission, and still wanted to get a glimpse of him years later. The fact that Cade has a near death experience and still manages to remember the girl who saved him years prior proves in my mind, that they are meant to be. They both follow their gut when it comes to each other and knowing that they are forever. I really enjoyed the drama the unfolded when Cade’s sister notices Nadia and finding out the organization Nadia works for and why. I was sad to have this story end, I was wanting more but was satisfied with the ending.

I love discovering a new-to-me author whose work immediately pulls me into their story which then sparks to life before my eyes- their words able to block out the ‘real world’ while ensuring that I am fully engaged and invested in their creation. Well, Wildfire by Ashley A. Quinnwas all that and more- an unexpected little gem of a story that has left me with a taste for more of her work. I can feel the beginnings of an addiction forming. Her work reminds me of Ann Voss Peterson’s books. This is the second book in The Broken Bow series, and I have already gone back to purchase book one to read next- as well as pre-ordering the upcoming book in the series. While there were a few issues to find through the story, such as character name changes and wrong words used- they were quite minor and in the end they didn’t detract from my overall enjoyment of the story. This is primarily a romantic suspense- with plenty of danger, suspense, drama, intrigue, angst and emotion. But this is also a story of second chances, new beginnings, secrets, chemistry, connection, family, friendships- and more. Weave in the disturbing ‘stalker’ aspect, as well as the clever twists and turns- and this story became un-put-down-able. I was so absorbed by the story that I read it in one sitting- as I really needed to know how everything played out in the end. It has definitely left me wanting more- in a great way. So now I really can’t wait to devour the rest of the series! I was going to go into the story and give you a bit of a rundown on what to expect- but I think I will let you discover all the appeal for yourself- as I am sure you are going to enjoy it just as mush as I have. Highly recommended!

The Nearness of You: A British celebrity standalone, love-at-first-sight romance is a feel-good romance by K.G Fletcher.
David falls for Lauren Rose the minute he sees her and hears her beautiful singing voice. Lauren Rose is a teacher by day and a lounge singer by night, a million miles away from David’s supermodel lifestyle. This is my first time reading anything by this author, and I absolutely loved it. The characters sparkled, they were so endearing and the chemistry between them brought this story to life. It had all of my favourite things, and just enough drama to keep me turning the pages. I would definitely recommend this story.

Moonlit Whisper : An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley. Let me start this review by saying how much I adored this story , this author never fails to drag me into her stories and making me never want to join reality again. This is a quick read but it’s not hindered in anyway but that, from start to finish it had everything I was needing in a great read. The characters are complex and relatable, they pulled me right in and I didn’t want to leave. I happily got lost in the pages with them for a while. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. But the characters truly bring it to life and I loved the time I got to spend with them. Five stars all the way and highly recommended!
Carly Lawson loves working winters as a ski patrol and summers as a rafting guide. The work is hard, but satisfying, and the soaring beauty of the Big Sky Ski Resort in Montana helps her forget the terrible mistake she made ten years ago—a secret she’s vowed to carry alone. Each winter brings a new lover, and each spring the end of that relationship—and that’s the way she likes it. But the new guy on the slopes is different.
A crash he can’t forget…
Downhill ski racer Chris Markham almost had it all—until his race for a spot on the Olympic team ended in a spectacular crash and life as a paraplegic. He’s not about to let that end his dreams; two years later, he’s got his sights set on the Paralympics. He’s come to Montana to concentrate on training, not get involved with a woman. But Carly makes him feel things he hasn’t felt in a long time—things he wasn’t sure he could feel.
In it for the long run…
Chris is conquering the slopes, but do his heart and body still have what it takes to satisfy a woman like Carly? Carly’s falling for Chris, but if she finds the courage to share her secret with him, can he forgive her past even when she can’t forgive herself? Will their relationship end before they make it out of the starting gate, or will they commit to making the longest run of their lives—together?
Many experiences influence Tracey’s writing, and she has been known to undertake unusual endeavors (such as firefighter training and learning to fly a helicopter) just for the sake of the experience. Being an Army-trained combat medic and a “biker chick” for over 30 years has had significant influence in her books, but even “ordinary” events have struck a chord or inspired a character or plot idea.
In 2018 Tracey returned to school to recertify as an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) and currently works at various sporting and music events when she’s not processing orders for the family business (Leader Motorcycle) or working at a substance abuse counseling center.
Tracey lives in small-town Minnesota with her husband, two kids, and two cats. They are a true “soccer family” (she even worked as a referee for two years). She enjoys downhill skiing and spending time at the family lake place.
This story was very enjoyable, although too short. Fiona, Lach, and Conner are all strong characters who are different in many ways but each with their own strengths. I thought that the author did a great job of giving you just a taste of each characters background and then bringing it all together. This author doesn’t put in a bunch of extra fluff words which I really like. I thought that Fiona was a strong female character who knew what she wanted and made it happen. The romance was very sweet and I could see all the characters from this book being in a full length novel and driving it remarkably well.
Moonlit Whisper by Amy McKinley is a novella in the Moonlit Destination Series. This book can be read as a standalone.
Fiona agrees to help the new transfer student from the football team. She definitely had no reason to believe it would be Connor. What were the chances? She thought she’d never see him again. Will they be able to rekindle the closeness they had or is there too much history?
I truly enjoyed reading this book even though it was on the shorter side. I wouldn’t complain about reading more of Fiona and Connor’s story! It was very well written you just get sucked in until the end!
IRRESISTIBLE CHRISTMAS – PETS TO THE RESCUE ANTHOLOGY
I have no idea what we as humans did to deserve the love we get from our pets but I’m so happy to have the live of my two dogs as well as all of the other pets in my life. There is just something about a story with a pet involved that makes me love it just a little more.
The story I’m going to highlight is Two Hearts Christmas Rescue by Tamara Ferguson which is the seventeenth book in the Two Hearts Wounded Warrior Romance.
Kinley is new to Crystal Rock, she’s been hired to run the animal shelter, specifically the Wounded Warrior program which will pair up animals and Veterans.
Jake is back in Crystal Rock on an assignment and while there is helping out at the shelter. He has no idea that someone from his past will come back into his life.
I really enjoyed the story but the animals were the stars as far as I’m concerned. Buster and McTavish had amazing and large personalities they both stole my heart.

I’m not sure what rock I’ve been living under that I haven’t discovered this author before now. But after devouring this book you can be assured that I am already adding the rest of this author’s works to my library. This book – I cannot put into words how much I enjoyed it. It was the perfect addition to my holiday list. A good clean romance with the perfect balance of sass. All of the characters blended perfectly and I loved the underlying theme of a strong family unit. 5++++ stars!

Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley – Review by Gail Guerrero
Four stars
This was a short and sweet story. You don’t really learn much about the characters since it’s so short. You do get a lot of background history about Fio, Lach and Connor. I found the relationship dynamic interesting. I didn’t like how Fio kept talking about how she needed Connor and he wasn’t there. Like she wouldn’t have survived without a guy to lean on. Like he had no choice. Her relationship with Lach was so fake I saw the outcome s mile away. I loved how the necklace played a part in this. The fairies waking her up was extremely cute. Overall a nice quick read
Moonlit Whisper : An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) By Amy McKinley
This is a quick sweet read. This author always delivers and this time was no different. I wish the book would have been longer because I didn’t want it to end. I would love to keep reading about these wonderful characters. This story flows nicely and has plenty going on. Fiona, Connor, and Lachlan have been friends since childhood. Connor is now back after being gone for a while and he is hoping that Fiona still feels the same way about him that he feels about her. What will Lachlan have to say about Connor being back? To find out what happens with this trio this is a must read. I highly recommend this book. You will enjoy this quick romantic read.
Moonlit Whisper : An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) by Amy McKinley
This is another great read by Amy McKinley. McKinley knows how to draw readers in and keep them wanting more.
Fiona is a fourth year college student and is happy. At least she thinks she is. When the boy from next door moves back things change. The quote I chose for Fiona is: “I’m glad you’re back, Connor, but I’m not yours anymore. I’m engaged to Lachlan.”
Connor left his hometown to get away from his abusive dad. When he comes back he finds that things have changed. When Fiona ends her engagement he gets another chance. The quote I chose for Conner is: “It’s our turn, Fio, like we were always meant to be. I’m never leaving you again.”
Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.
Moonlit Whisper was a great read for me. I enjoyed the storyline and the characters. Fiona, Connor and Lachlan were all childhood friends. Fio ( Fiona ) always left her window unlocked for Connor and he spent most nights sleeping in her bed. Connor was having major family issues and he left town because he was able to play soccer and get away from his family problems. Now he’s back and he wishes everything could go back to how they were before he left. Only problem is, Fiona and Lachlan are together now and Lachlan isn’t giving her up without a fight. Once best of friends now compete at nearly everything. Who will win the girl? Read this quick novella to find out what happens.
Another great short, PG-13 romance from Amy McKinley. I liked this one better than A Moonlit Whisper because I found the love triangle and the college setting more interesting. Fiona is faced with a difficult decision: Stay with her fiancé, Lachlan, or rekindle her romance with her long lost ex-boyfriend, Conner.
Fictional or not, I never agree with people who cheat on their partners, so I was interested to see how A Moonlit Whisper dealt with this. In the end, I believe that the story had enough substance and backstory for everything to resolve the way McKinley wanted. I recommend this for anyone looking for a nice, short romance.

This is a good story. This is a romantic suspense book. I liked following along with the characters lives as they struggle to get over the past. Jace is a wonderful character. He has a lot of nice traits that appeal to readers as well as Tara. Tara is a struggle at times I’m not sure if she is over her husband or not. Anyway their first meeting is sweet as well as their first kiss.
The family is awesome! I enjoyed each of them and I will like watching them get their own stories. I didn’t know much about the family since I haven’t read book one. I didn’t feel lost as certain events were described nicely for me to comfortably follow along.
I read the sneak peek at the end of the book and look forward to reading the next in the series.

Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance (Moonlit Destination Series) is a short novel by Amy McKinley. The story follows the reunion of Fiona, a 4th year student at Trinity College in Dublin and her childhood best friend Connor, who has been living abroad for the last few years. Although they have both missed each other terribly, things have changed now they are no longer children. Fiona is engaged to the other member of their childhood trio and he is not happy about Connors return. This was an enjoyable short novel, I would have liked it to be longer to get to know the characters more but it did move at a good pace and the descriptions of Dublin were really good, having visited several times it felt as though I knew exactly where the author was describing. Would recommend to other lovers of the romance genre who are looking for a quick read.

Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance by Amy McKinley is a novel in the Moonlit Destination series. This is a short, contemporary sports romance by an incredible author. Although part of a series the book can be read as a stand-alone. I loved this second chance romance. The characters had everything against them and yet I was behind them the whole way. Although it is a novella the book doesn’t feel like it is missing anything at all. It is a well written and interesting story. It has a natural flow to it that makes it a nice and easy read. I would certainly recommend this story, and series, to anyone who is a fan of the genre.
This is the story of Fiona and Connor, Fiona is A girl who loves football and is dating her best friend and player on the football squad Lachlan, he asks her to go for a coffee, but she can’t because she has to meet her dad and find out about the new transfer student she will be helping with their assignments. Next, Fiona is in the library with the transfer student and it is none other than the boy next door who left six years ago, she is still annoyed by that and is trying to understand why he did it, but she is also trying not to notice how much more handsome he has become over the years. It turns out that he left to support his mum and to escape from his dad, Fiona knows what that past entailed and how he used to come to and stay with her every night, but she still finds it hard to accept.
The next day Connor goes to a rocky cliff where people go to jump into the sea and hangout together, but what he doesn’t expect to see is Lachlan and Fiona there together, he likes it even less when he throws her off the cliff when he sees Connor, as Connor dives off and finds Fiona, she explains her and Lachlans engagement, this is where Connor becomes more determined to set the wrongs right and get Fiona back, but will he succeed, or will the past be something they can’t overcome? This is a short story which will suck you in and keep you guessing until the end.
Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance, is part of the Moonlit Destination series by Amy Mckinley.
Moonlight Whisper is a novella that can be devoured in an afternoon, which is handy as once i started reading i didn’t want to put it down. The main characters, Fiona and Connor, were childhood sweethearts and best friends who were forced to split up when Connor followed his dream to play football. Fiona was crushed but eventually chose to move on. Of course Connor returns, but he finds Fiona with a new life and a new man.
This story is a feel-good romance that will have you hooked. This isn’t my first book by Amy Mckinley and in my experience she does not disappoint, and she certainly doesn’t here. The chemistry between Fiona and Connor is there from the start and you just know that they are meant to be together. As is the way with all good stories, these things never run smoothly, and these are the type of characters that you are rooting for throughout the whole book.
Moonlit Whisper: An Irish Romance is a fantastic contemporary romance novella by Amy McKinley. This novella was previously published in With Love From Venice (Voyages Of The Heart Anthology). Amy McKinley is an author that I’ve now been a huge fan of for a couple of years and it’s always an excitement to get to read more of her work. I absolutely loved this novella and devoured it in one sitting as I just didn’t want to put it down. I could easily have read a full length novel containing the characters Fiona and Connor as I adored their story and could have read so much more about them. This is a second chance romance. Connor and Fiona were childhood sweethearts when Connor’s mum moved him away from his home in Ireland to a new life in America. Now Connor is back in Ireland to complete his final year of university, only Fiona is now engaged to Connor’s former best friend. This was a great read that I was hooked by in the very first chapter and as the author is such a fantastic storyteller, I was hooked throughout desperate to know how Connor and Fiona’s story ended. Did they get the HEA that they both deserved? Can Fiona forgive Connor for leaving her? Well, I’m not going to spoil the story for you. Give this great novella, (and this fantastic author) a chance and lose yourself in Connor and Fiona’s story.

Moonlit Whisper is a short and sweet second chance at love novelette that can be read as a standalone story. Fiona (Fio) is engaged to childhood friend Lach but when Connor returns from living across the pond Fio is torn between her new love and her old childhood sweetheart. Connor had to leave Dublin to live with his Mum but he hated leaving behind Fio and he definitely never forgot her. When Connor returns as a fourth year transfer student at Trinity to play football he is determined to have Fio in his arms again and this time for ever. Fio also never forgot the boy who used to climb through her bedroom window and the more time they spend together with Fio tutoring Connor the closer they become. This was an enjoyable and engaging short read with some great characters. The chemistry between Fiona and Connor really came across in the story as did the competition and tension between Connor and Lach. The narrative flowed well and I felt immersed in the storyline, so much so that I could not put the book down.

Anything I read by Amy Mckinley is awesome. This short story was probably one of my favorites. This was such a sweet book of lost love reclaimed. I love how easy Amy’s stories come together. She can instantly get me involved with any story and I can’t put it down till it’s finished. I ate this book up and can’t wait till I get the next book she writes.
