Not So Wrong (Love Grows series, Book 2)Not So Wrong by Renee Regent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Not So Wrong (Love Grows Book 2) by Renee Regent is a beautiful romance story about two people on the opposite sides of reality and the most unlikely couple to fall in love. But when you make music and have such a passion for something you love then they make their own music. Renee has written a wonderful story that you cannot stop reading until you have finished the whole book.

Spencer is a billionaire who has secrets, ones he doesn’t want anyone to know, ones that could destroy him but when he meets a woman with the voice of an angel he longs for more than he ever has before.
Melanie has longed for the love of her life to become a reality but after so long being in pursuit of her dreams, she is about to give. However, when she meets a kindred soul she must choice between the family that needs her and the man with a passion to match her own.
I fell in love with the characters and know you will too. I am looking forward to what comes next.

Not So Wrong (Love Grows series, Book 2) by Renee Regent

5 out of 5 stars

The story Not So Wrong (Love Grows Book 2) by Renee Regent is a contemporary/new adult romance book and it’s the second book that I have read by this author. The characters are well written and amazing and the things that they had to deal with in this story made them feel real. The plot was awesome.
What happens when a billionaire who can’t face his past and an independent woman who has given up on her future meet? They have nothing in common except music so what can they offer each other? Will the perfect song give them a future, or tear them apart?
Melanie after years of trying to make it as a singer, it’s time to stop chasing a dream that won’t come true. Her family needs her, and soon she’ll be leaving Atlanta for good. But Spencer Colebank is tempting her to stay, with hope the song they wrote together will win us a record deal.
Spencer thinks Melanie Parker, sings like an angel gone bad, has taken his heart. His family’s business expectations have always taken priority, but writing their song together has inspired him to stop hiding his musical talent and show the world who he really is.
But his past mistakes have come back to haunt him, and honoring the promise he can’t break means risking everything they’ve built together.
Spencer has made Melanie believe again but can she trust him? Melanie has given Spencer his spark back that he thought he lost forever. Can she forgive him or will she walk away from him for good?
I highly recommend this story/series and can’t wait to see what Ms. Regent has in-store for us next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When Spencer Colebank meets Melanie Parker at a party sparks fly and the billionaire is hooked. In book 2 of the Love Grows series, Not So Wrong, by author Renee Regent these two special characters are hiding behind masks and are afraid what would happen if others knew their real selves. Melanie is a singer who may have to give up her dream and Spencer is hiding his dreams in order to make his family happy.
This was an interesting story and I truly felt for the characters. Both were hiding and you had to root for them to achieve their dreams, no matter what. I look forward to seeing what is going to happen next in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Not So Wrong is the second book in the Love Grows series by Renee Regent. This contemporary romance is a great story with a wonderful emotive quality to the storyline. I really enjoyed the first book in the series, so I was excited to dive into this second book. I wasn’t sure I would like it as much as the first book, but I needn’t have worried- as Ms. Regent exceeded all my expectations and I ended up loving it just as much as Book one, if not a little more.
Melanie and Spencer make beautiful music together- and they were so easy to like and emotionally invest in. Spencer is Gibson Colebank’s brother- from Not So Broken- Book #1. He’s also a billionaire with baggage and secrets. She’s struggling to ‘make it’ on the music scene and is about to give up on her dreams. What happens when they unite and write music together? A sweet, sexy, and romantic story that’s definitely worth your time and money- so grab yourself a copy and discover all the intriguing details for yourself!
A wonderful addition to the series and I can’t wait to read Ms. Regent’s next book!

Thank you, Ms. Regent!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not So Wrong is the 2nd book in the Love Grows series by Renee Regent. It can be read as a stand-alone, even though Gibson and Sacha from the first book, Not So Broken are also in this book. In this second book Spencer is the cousin of Gibson and Melanie is Sacha’s best friend so it was an added bonus catching up with this couple again.
Like the first book, our hero and heroine are a very unlikely partnership. Spencer is a billionaire whereas Melanie grew up in a trailer park. What brings them together is music. Melanie is a fantastic singer/songwriter whereas Spencer has secretly been composing music for years. Having met at a family party, they discover this connection.
I have to say that I loved both of these characters. Melanie has had such a hard life so far. Her passion for music is what keeps her going. Spencer is an extremely likeable character, who also happens to be drop dead gorgeous. I was very intrigued as to why he and Spencer did not get on. What was the secret that Spencer was holding onto?
The story is action packed and fast paced, so it keeps you gripped from beginning to end. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and hope that this series will continue.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really couldn’t wait to get my hands on Not so Wrong. This is book two in the Love Grows series from Renee Regent, and I fell in love with this series and author in book one. They are written as of now where you could read them as stand alones or out of order. However, you do get to meet the main characters for Not so Wrong briefly in book one. Either way, both are fab and your won’t want to miss out on either of them.

I truly loved reading Melanie and Spencer’s story. These two captured my heart fairly quickly and I was consumed with them from beginning to end, well past my bedtime. I truly think the only negative for this story for me was that it ended. I loved the music theme with this. Melanie and Spencer both have a love for music in common. Sencer writes and composes music and Melanie loves to sing. The music that is possible to be made when these two come together is beautiful and ever present in the writing. I was captivated and could almost feel as if I was there watching these two in person. I absolutely cannot wait to see what will come next in this series!!

I have been really looking forward to reading the second book in this series as I was especially excited to read Melanie and Spencer’s story! And as expected I was not disappointed at all! I fell in love with the two main characters straight away. There was just something about them both that drew me in straight away – Melanie was a strong, independent woman and Spencer – well he was just so hot I fell in love with him as soon as I met him – but as well as that there was a slight vulnerability about him that I really liked. There was just something so special about the two of them that together they just seemed to work, they both had their own secrets to deal with and I just knew that together they would be able to help each other out.
The author has written a really beautiful tale, the pace and flow of the story is excellent and my interest was kept from beginning to end. I absolutely loved Not So Wrong and I cannot wait to read more from Ms Regent again in the future!

5 Stars

I was so looking forward to this book. I met these two in the first book in this series and knew this was their story and couldn’t wait to dive in.

Spencer and Melanie won me over immediately and the world around me did not exist while I read this book. It brought out all the feels and I’m not sure why but books that have to do with singers or music in general don’t normally catch my attention but this one sold me completely. I sincerely loved every word and that is thanks to this author’s beautiful writing style and her way with words.

“There are so many regrettable things I’ve done in my life. But it turns out, there was nothing so wrong that it couldn’t be made right. All it took was the truth.”

That statement totally touched me and I’m not sure why but I dont think Ive ever had it put like that and I love it!

I can not wait for Audrey’s story and I also can not wait to read these books again..I can not recommend enough!!

LOVED IT!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Not So Wrong by Renee Regent is the second book in the Love Grows series. This is a standalone contemporary romance with great characters.
Renee Regent is an author that really knows how to write a great book. She weaves such a tale with strong and engaging characters. This is definitely something that is prevalent throughout this book. Melanie and Spencer were brilliant together. Their chemistry was instant. The whole way through the book I was willing them to find a way to make things work.
I thought the overall story was good. It was well paced and the author did a great job of developing the arc. It was an easy book to fall into and one that I found I had read quicker than I thought – it was definitely over too soon! I can certainly say that this author is one that, although I have only discovered recently, I enjoy reading every single time.

Not so wrong is Book 2 in the Love Grows series. Melanie and Spencer hit it off right from the beginning. This book kept me entertained from the first page. Both main characters were very likable for me. Spencer is a billionaire who has everything he could ever want except someone to spend more then one night with. Melanie has been trying to get her group to the big leagues and has decided it’s just not in the cards for her. One thing Spencer and Melanie have in common aside from the desire to be with each other is music. Spencer loves to compose music and Melanie loves to sing. Will Melanie be able to write the words for Spencer’s music? Melanie is about to go home and help her sister take care of her mom and kids. Will Spencer and Melanie find true love together or will Melanie leave and never look back? This was a great read that goes quickly. It will keep you reading late an night when you should be sleeping. I loved this book!

Not So Wrong
Love Grows
Book 2
By Renee Regent
☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
This is a full length Romance between two unlikely people. Who live very different lives, and the journey they have taken to find love.

Spencer and Melanie, what a fun couple. He is a billionaire that has secrets he is trying to keep. She is about to give up her dreams. Move back home to help her family. When music is love, they both write a song together. He writes music, she writes the lyrics. The two put their talents together and there you go!

Renee Regent has written a beautiful love story. Not just romance, she has included music. I was drawn in before I finished page 2, and kept reading until the end. Her book is well written, her research of music and her love for writing are within this book. You are bound to fall in love with her characters as well. I am looking forward to following her series. I know I will continue to read this series. Well done!!!

This is the second book in this series. I loved this book as much as the first one. This author writes with feeling. Her characters are well developed and pull you into the story right from the beginning. They made me feel as if I was part of the story. Melanie is a singer who has given up hopes of making it until Spencer comes into her life. Will he tempt her to stay and not leave? Could one song change everything? I loved their relationship and their chemistry. Their story is a must read.

The story Not So Wrong (Love Grows Book 2) by Renee Regent is a contemporary/new adult romance book. It is a story that will pull you in from the beginning and won’t let you go until you have finished the final page. It is a story that is entertaining, romantic, and have you glued to the pages. I loved reading about the characters of Melanie Parker and Spencer Colebank. Melanie is a wonderful singer. She is strong, intelligent, and independent. She finds herself having to end chasing her dream as her family needs her. Then she meets Spencer. Spencer is a man who works in the family business however music is part of his soul. He finds himself with an attraction to Melanie that keeps growing stronger. She has the voice of an angel. He has a secret that he guards. Will Melanie trust Spencer with her heart? Can Spencer tempt her to stay? Will Spencer’s secret tear them apart? What does the future hold for Melanie and Spencer? Read this book to find out. This story had my emotions going up and down. I also grew to care about Spencer and Melanie with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. There are romantic scenes that are steamy. There are moments that will make you sad, make you laugh, and warm your heart. This is a book that you don’t want to miss out on. I highly recommend it.

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series, # 1)Not So Broken by Renee Regent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Not so Broken by Renee Regent is the first book in the Love Grows series. I enjoyed this book, thought the story was well written and the characters were great, especially the grumpy neighbor Marvil. He seemed to make me smile no matter the situation.

Gibson is a good guy who has had some bad stuff happen to him like losing his wife. He finds a new life after running away from the pain and guilt. I really liked him a lot, he was kind hearted and willing to do the right thing always.

Sacha seemed a little rough around the edges for me. I get she got hurt bad by her Ex but she seemed a little angier and more bitter than she should be after the time that past

There were a few things I wish had been given more attention. To me it felt like a couple of loose ends that could have been tied up, especially the surprise Sacha stumbled upon.

All of that being said it was a good book to read a intend to keep up with this series.

Gibson is actually a billionaire known as John G Colebank III of heir to the Colebank fortune. He is currently hiding out in Tilly, Georgia working as a handyman. No one knows who he really is. He has endured the worst kind of heartbreak and cannot go back to his normal life.
Sasha is visiting Tilly trying to gain clients. While she is visiting the town her eyes land on a gorgeous looking man she names mountain man. Sasha has also been through a lot. After trying to get pregnant for years which was unsuccessful, her husband tells her one day he’s leaving and his girlfriend is pregnant.

While Gib and Sasha can’t get the other out of their heads, things happen and it causes them to see each other again.
I really fell in love with Gibs character. He really is such a nice guy and I was rooting for him the entire book. I do t want to give to much away but, this is a great read! One you won’t want to miss out on.

Gibson is a man in hiding. After suffering an enormous loss, Gibson moves to a quiet town, hours away from his normal life. Sacha is an alcohol rep, always traveling around the area for her next sale. After a random chance encounter, these two peoples’ lives will be changed forever. I absolutely loved this story! I loved how both characters are lost in their own ways and that Renee Regent showed that a second chance at life can be right around the corner, where you least expect it. Sacha was not my favorite character at first, she is so stubborn and guarded but her characters evolution was a great one to read. Both characters have been through a lot and needed to come a long way to get what they want from life. This really was a lovely story to read and I can’t wait to read more from Renee Regent and the Love Grows Series! I give “Not So Broken” five stars!!

Not So Broken is book in the Love Grows Series by Renee Regent. I have not read anything by this author and the thought of delving into this story was both fascinating and exciting.

Sacha and Gibson are a delightful couple that I really enjoyed getting to know. I will never get sick of these types of stories and the way my heart fills and my stomach flutters nervously when things get a little tense. When the chemistry between the couple is so tangible, it has a life of its own. The charisma, the challenges, the personalities, the dramas, the intensity. All powerful emotions, all provided in this story. I loved the story, the characters, the way the story was presented. It was a fantastic read. 5 stars.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Not so Broken was a great 5 star read and book one in the Love Grows Series.

We start with Gibson who is living in Tilly, GA. He has been living like a recluse for the last few months grieving and trying to move forward with his life. When his father calls and gives him a deadline on coming back home, he has to decide if he will ever be ready to return.

Sacha went to Tilly to sell some alcohol to the local establishments. She is also nursing a broken heart and isn’t ready for anything serious. She ends up meeting Gibson while out at one of the local bars, and they hit it off. They end up having a very steamy one night stand.

Maybe it was the scotch, or maybe I had been pent up too long. I found myself hoping for much more than a dance with this woman tonight.

When Sasha returns to Tilly she has some shocking news for Gib. Sasha was in shock with the news herself, it was something she never thought could happen. Will the news finally bring Gib home? Will it bring him and Sasha together as a couple?

There is so much more to this great read. Gib and Sasha tested my patience at times, especially Sasha. My emotions were all over the place. Renee Regent pulled me right in with her writing. I wouldn’t mind seeing more from Gib and Sasha and I look forward to reading more from this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

NOT SO BROKEN is the first book in a new series. It has a little bit of everything that makes it a “classic” romance. There are best friends, an alpha male, life altering events, angst, desire, a bit of humor, a lot of misunderstanding and so much more.

This is a story that evolves over almost a year and at times it moves very quickly and other times it’s as if the story has slowed the pace to hold onto the thread with secondary characters.

This story lays a terrific foundation for the future stories in the series. There is a very clear beginning, middle and end and was a satisfying read.

I look forward to reading more of the series.

By Renee Regent
5 Stars

Who doesn’t love a story with a troubled hero and a feisty heroine?? Not So Broken by Renee Regent delivers this in spades with the first book in her Love Grows Series. A first-time reader of this author for me but I was pleased with a well-written story, great characters, making this book hard to put down.

Gibson has known tragedy. The guilt and remorse he feels have left him reeling and feeling unworthy of anybody’s trust and convinced that he will be alone forever. Yet an unexpected connection is made with the feisty Sacha and now it is his turn to convince her to give their budding romance a chance.

Sacha has pulled herself up from her bootstraps and forged a new life. Set on living her life the way she wants and achieving the goals she has set for herself. But fate has thrown a curveball at her and she is left wondering if she is ready for these new changes. She was convinced nothing would alter her new life path but will this unexpected relationship with Gibson change her thinking?

Ms. Regent pulls the reader in with these engaging characters. You can’t help but have deep feels for Gibson and cheer Sacha on her independence and strength. The chemistry and deep connection these two forge throughout the book only enhances the story. I truly enjoyed getting to know these characters and the story was fresh and enjoyable. I look forward to more books by Ms. Regent and highly recommend this book for your TBR list.

Not So Broken is the many firsts for me. The first is new series, by a new author to me, and a new favorite for sure! Never having read anything by Renee Regent before this I was going in blind simply with the enticement of the blurb and the eye catching cover. I am super excited that there will be more to come in this series and that I now have a new author to stalk! In Not So Broken we get the story of Gibson and Sacha. Both of them have extremely painful and dark pasts that haunt them to this day. Neither of them expected to have anything but the mundane lives they had settled for before they meet that night in Tilly Georgia. Will they be able to lay their pasts behind them to have a better future together? Or will they be forever broken?

The book had a great emotional element to it as well which really draws you in and keeps you reading. This was a great way to start a new series and I am looking forward to book 2.

Not So Broken (Love Grows Series, # 1)Not So Broken by Renee Regent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Oh I absolutely adored this book! From the very start until the very end I was completely swept up in what I was reading. This is also the first book that I have read by this author and what an introduction it was. I didn’t want the story to end. I’m not sure I expected to fall in love with Gibson as much as I did – oh my heart broke for him completely. He was just everything I love in an alpha male type; I definitely shed a few tears for him too. The author wrote about him in such a way that I could feel everything that he did. It didn’t take me long either to fall in love with Sacha, hurt in the past for a different reason I was totally rooting for this two to help each other find happiness again. Sacha was the feisty female that I felt Gibson needed to help him and he was the protective male that she needed. I utterly adored them both!
I am super excited for the next book in the series – judging by this one I can see that this is going to be a super 5 star series!!!

This contemporary romance follows a couple that has the odds seemingly stacked against them. I really jumped into the pages and became immediately entrenched in the storyline. I found myself in the author’s grip, enable to walk away until the last page was read. Beautiful, solid writing coupled with relatable characters and cohesive plot dells a fantastic book!

Not So Broken by Renee Regent is book one in the Love Grows Series. This is a story about getting a second chance at life and love, it revolves around Gibson and Sacha. This story has a bit of it all sadness, loss, mourning mixed with acceptance, love and moving on when you get a second chance. I liked Gibson he was down to earth and realistic in his behavior and reactions. Sacha I both liked and didn’t, I didn’t agree with all of her decisions but I understood her reasoning. Not So Broken is told in alternating point of view through Gibson and Sacha so you get both sides of the story as it’s happening.
