This new to me author is definitely a great discovery!
A book where the main character swears off men is always a good recipe for drama. It is the perfect chick-lit book to kick back, relax and enjoy a good book. I can totally relate to her wanting to swear sweats and write books. If only life was that easy.
I will definitely be reading more by this author

Sigh what I wouldn’t give to date Heath……
This was such a sweet Romance, the last couple of books I’ve read were a bit on the heavy side, so this was a nice change of pace.
I could really relate with Marlowe’s character and the sweet dynamic between Marlow and Heath was super awesome read. The secondary characters brought something extra to the storyline that to it to a whole new level.

Loved it!!!!!! This book was absolutely adorable, I love the feel of innocence to it as it follows two of the main characters and their developing love story. The book follows a girl who doesn’t believe in love or that good men truly exist, until she meets the one man that changes her perspective, even better its one of the most unlikely of guys. Mixed with a little bit of comedy this Rom Com is definitely chick lit ( lol chick flick but book style).

Love Between the Lines by A.D. Brazeau is a book from The Page Turners Series. This is a delightful, chicklit, romance story featuring Marlowe Bennet. She is very relatable wanting to just live her life as a writer. The issue is she writes romance and has none in her life. Heath Rochester is a former model and now running his family’s bookstore and he has his sights on Marlowe. Will they or won’t they? You have to read this fun book to get the answer. I really enjoyed the characters and lightness of the story. I really needed a little romantic pick me up and this fit the bill. I look forward to more from this author in the future.

Love Between the Lines is a fantastic lighthearted romance. A.D. Brazeau keeps it light and funny with interactions between Marlowe, Iris, and Lucy, but she also kept this reader on the edge of her seat with the romantic reactions between Marlowe and Heath. This is my first read from this author but i can promise it wont be my last. Love Between the Lines has everything that a girl could ask for in a romance novel, including a trio of tight- knit girlfriends, a couple of perfect guys, beautifully described scenery, and even a couple of plot twists. If you want a funny, sweet, and romantic novel then I highly recommend Love Between the Lines.

I really liked the idea of this story. The model and the writer. The writing flowed nicely and the characters held my interest. The story is relatively low key. My major issue is the friends drama really overpowered the main story. It’s was too much information about them and their predicaments. The girls night would have been good with just touches of Iris and Lucy and keeping the focus on Marlow and Heath. I did enjoy the character of Iris very much. She added some fun to the story.

Love Between the Lines by A.Z. Brazeau earns 4 out of 5 stars for me. This was a highly enjoyable, quick read that centers around the burgeoning relationship between protagonist Marlowe Bennet and a book cover model named Heath Rochester. Marlowe is a writer who loves her cats. Heath is a successful model who returns home to take over running his family’s bookstore.The pair, who already have a little bit of history, spark a relationship that is full of enough drama and tension to keep the pages turning. Not only is this story a charming, funny contemporary romance, it also addresses the struggles of mental health maintenance. Marlowe lives with anxiety and attends therapy where she learns realistically helpful strategies. I appreciate every aspect of this story and am glad it is only the first in this series.

Marlowe is a writer that finds it so much easier to live life at home with her cats. Her sister and her best friend are there for her and that’s all she needs. She’s sworn off of men and love. Who could blame her? Have enough bad relationships and you don’t really want more. Anxiety is so hard to overcome even when a smart, sexy and loyal guy like Heath comes along. A sweet love story that would make any chick flick lover happy!

This book was so much fun to read. The bonus part of it is, it carries a wonderfully done undertone of addressing mental illness and anxiety and the impacts it can have on people and the ones they love. It is not an easy task to take a romance novel and add that mental illness topic and keep it one that will give you all the feels and some laughs while making you feel and relate to topics that are unfortunately not normalized nearly enough. I have not had a chance to read any of AD Brazeau’s works prior to this one, but you bet I will fix that and be devouring her other released novels as soon as possible. This one will be one you can and will probably want to read in a whole sitting and be sad to see it end merely because you have fallen for the characters as if they were real people. I sincerely look forward to seeing if we have or will be getting more books like this from Brazeau in the near future.

Love Between the Lines. Book one of the Page Turners Series
A.D. Brazeau

A.D. Brazeau has quickly become one of my most relatable authors. Her characters struggle with everyday problems that myself and I’m sure all readers can relate to to some extent; anxiety, loss, heartache, resentment, nerves, and doubt. The beautiful thing about this book is that these struggles actually help redeem the characters instead of seeing them as flaws. They build each other up and work on them together, to build trust and growth to be better. While it is a work of fiction, I believe it could actually help some people struggling with similar ailments- her character went to therapy, tried different strategies to get her feelings stable in HEALTHY ways.

Beyond the “self help love” I feel it’s promoting, I adored the plot line of the book itself. I’m a sucker for rekindling love and overcoming previous heartaches, great descriptions of places, scenes, and characters are definitely a plus too! I can’t wait to read more of her series!

Love Between the Lines is the first book in this series and I enjoyed this read a lot! As a new to me author, it takes a couple chapters to get into the groove of their writing styles and I got lost in this one pretty quickly. I love that the main characters are an author and a cover model. These two were great to read about and will be looking for more books from this author.

Love Between The Lines (Book One of the Page Turners series) by A.D. Brazeau was a really good read! This wasn’t a bad read by any means, but from reading the synopsis of the book I thought I would enjoy it more. Not to say I didn’t enjoy reading this book, it was interesting and a good read. It just didn’t hold my attention like the synopsis and cover led me to believe it would. The characters were very interesting, I loved the storyline and the content, and it was an enjoyable and interesting read. I can’t wait to read the next installment to this series and more from this author in the future!

This was a lovely funny chick-lit book. The characters were well written and really relatable. The relationship between the friends is on that I recognise as it sounds like me and my friends which makes the story even more fun and relatable.

All Marlowe wants is a quiet life. Safe in her world where the only romance she has it through the books she writes. With good friends and her pets she wants nothing else in life.

Heath is a model who had decided to leave the spotlight and work in the family business. He feels its time to slow down and settle down. And the women of his choosing is Marlowe.

Can he show her what romance is like when it’s not written on a page? Can Marlowe let her guard down enough to give Heath a chance?

Love Between the Lines: A Contemporary Romance Sprinkled With Chick-Lit and Rom-Com is the first book in The Page Turners series by A.D. Brazeau. This is the first book I have read by this author, but definitely won’t be the last. This is a story of Marlowe, a romance writer, and Heath, a book cover model. This book dealt with some heavy issues including anxiety. This book had my emotions rolling from beginning to end. I have to say it it made me laugh out loud but also had me reaching for tissues. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reading the next book in the series.

I don’t often read romances, but this romance was intriguing: how could I not like a story about a romance writer who hasn’t experienced any romance in the two years after a bad break-up? And this book has one of the greatest opening lines EVER: “Under the Sheets was always a good time.”
Well, we’re off with a bang! Or — maybe Marlowe wasn’t referring to what I thought she was referring to…
Marlowe Bennet is a romance writer w/ a serious lack of romance in her life. She is a successful romance novelist who has two great friends in her sister Lucy and best friend Iris, a fellow romance writer. Marlowe is content w/ her friends, her two cats, and just wants to live in her sweats, write her books, and hide from her anxiety disorder. But then she runs into the hunky Heath Rochester, a cover model for romance novels (like Fabio?) w/ whom she’d shared a few steamy kisses a year before. It turns out Heath has a surprising career outside of modeling that perfectly compliments Marlowe’s own career. Undeniable sexual chemistry and fate ensue.
Again, this isn’t a typical romance as it doesn’t follow the usual trope of girl-meets-boy, snogs boy, then contrived misunderstandings force them apart. I like that we get a view of strong female friendships, and some sparkling repartee between the characters. For all these reasons, I give the book a solid four stars.

Love Between the Lines by A.D. Brazeau is a contemporary romance sprinkled with chick-lit and a little rom-com and is from the Page Turners Series. It is a short, fun and sweet story that will be over before you know it. If you love rom coms and sweet romances, you are going to love this one. Grab a copy and settle in for a nice afternoon read, you will not be disappointed.

With amazing friends who keep her keep her on her toes and keep her grounded Marlowe begins to see herself as more.

Heath is tired of his life and wants more. Now he just has to convince the girl.

I thought the secondary characters were well written and helped to create more of a depth to the story as a whole.

Marlowe Bennet is an author who has become used to her hermit existence. She wants to stay home in her sweats with her cats and eat junk food while she writes. Heath is a model who is ready to stop traveling and settle down. After steamy kiss a year ago, Marlowe’s best friend Iris arranges a date for the two of them.

I really enjoyed this book. A.D. Brazeau did a nice job of going into how anxiety can take over your life. I thought the chemistry between Heath and Marlowe was wonderful. Heath was truly a perfect book boyfriend. He was so patient and understanding. I loved how the book focused on their relationship, but I was sad there was no steamy sex scenes.

The friendship between Iris, Marlowe and Marlowe’s sister Lucy was really fun to read about. I liked how they were all so supportive of each other. This was a heartwarming story that was funny and light. A great book to read on a rainy weekend in.

Love Between the Lines is the first book in the Page Turners series by A.D. Brazeau. This is a sweet romantic comedy- a bit of chick-lit with plenty of humour that made for an entertaining read.
This story captures what happens when the sparks ignite between an author and a cover model. But Ms. Brazeau doesn’t make it too easy for these two- adding just enough angst, drama, anxiety, and self doubt to make things interesting.
This is my first read by Ms. Brazeau, and after reading this, I am happy to say that it won’t be my last.
Happy reading!

Thank you, A.D. Brazeau!

Love between the lines by A.D. Brazeau a fun and fabulous five-star read. This was my first read by this author, but I hope it won’t be the last, as I so enjoyed the interactions between Marlowe, Lucy and Iris, they made this so much more of a story that the plot between Marlowe and Heath, although that was a great plot and not what you would imagine, there really was something there. I read this in one sitting and will certainly be adding it to my re-read pile as this jut gave me the warm fuzzies.

Love Between the Lines is an easy breezy romance written in a relatable voice. Brazeau sketches her characters with ease, and in such a way that I feel like I knew them almost immediately. I particularly liked the protagonists bestie, quirky and brazen Iris, as well as her sister Lucy, she of polished fashion and sky-high heels. Together, they are the family we all want – infinitely supportive and generous to our heroine Marlowe. They nudge her to move out of her comfort zone and actively seek out the love (and sex!) that she needs.
While I loved these two, and how they played off of each other, I found Marlowe to be utterly clueless. Even when a man is pursuing her, and telling her to her face that he has a crush on her, she still lays about wondering if he wants to go out with her. I know that people sometimes have trouble recognizing the “signs” of attraction, or let their own self-doubt get in the way, but her hero was very frank and honest with her about how he felt, and she still needed the infinite nudging of her friends to believe him. The plot was easy to read, but also a bit formulaic for my tastes.
Overall, romance fans will likely enjoy this work. Brazeau has a great style of writing which makes it easy to dive into Love Between the Lines.

I’m normally not a contemporary romance reader but this book has changed my mind.

The 3 women in this book are amazing friends and you feel like you are a part of the ‘girl gang’.

The romance is epic and I totally related with Mor to the T.
And Heath …. 🔥 oh hunny.

Highly suggest it to anyone! Honestly.

Lovers of rom coms and love stories will love this. Marlowe is once bitten, twice shy writer who lets her romantic side out through the romance novels she writes. When she wins a date with the Goldmine body himself. Heath Rochester, however, fate has other ideas. We follow Marlowe as she tries to guard her heart whilst trying to be there for her sister and her friend with their life struggles. But will destiny have other ideas?
I thoroughly enjoyed this story, it was like curling up with a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day, heart warming and soothing. This was cleverly written, light-hearted and cozy. I identified parts of myself in Marlowe so I was curious and intrigued as to how her and Heath’s story was going to work out. As this is the first one in a series I’m excited to see what comes next in Marlowe’s story.

The characters are relatable and made me laugh a few times. They brought the story to life. They made it fun and easy to read. Marlowe wants nothing more than to live in her sweats, write her books and spend time with her pets. Heath is ready to give his glamorous life on the road to run the family business. He is also ready to Marlowe his. The only problem is that she feels unlovable and really needs to take control of her life. They made such great characters that I really enjoyed.

I thoroughly enjoyed this lighthearted fun romantic comedy novel by a new author to me A.D. Brazeau. I found this to be an entertaining and engaging read which had me laughing out loud in places. I was hooked from page one and could not put this book down, ‘Love Between the Lines’ is a contemporary romance and the first novel in the ‘Page Turners’ series. The very likeable and relatable heroine of the story is Marlowe Bennet, she lives in sweats, writes romance books and loves her cats whilst hates ‘real life’ men. Marlowe suffers from anxiety and believes she is unlovable but book cover model Heath Rochester does not agree and following a drunken kiss has not been able to stop thinking about Marlowe. Heath is ready to stop modelling and settle down to run his family’s bookstore, hopefully with Marlowe by his side. Marlowe’s best friend Iris and sister Lucy are also wonderful characters who all bring something different to the storyline and I look forward to reading their own stories. This book is full of love and laughter and is a sweet and heartwarming novel. I fell in love with the characters who are bought to life by the authors descriptive narrative, which made me feel immersed in their story. I liked how honestly and sympathetically Marlowe’s anxiety was discussed throughout the book and how supportive her family and friends were. The chemistry between Marlowe and Heath came across in the story and I liked how their relationship developed as the story went on. This was a great read and I am pleased to have discovered a new favourite author in A.D. Brazeau.
