This book was a quick, sweet read. It did take a little bit to get into but once I did, I really enjoyed the story. I liked the development of how Adam’s walls were built due to having his heart broken by an outsider yet Jody, an outsider, helped tear them down. Jody’s struggle with confidence is understandable especially with having the type of relationship she had with her older sister. I would definitely read more books by this author.

This is a set of three short stories. Each one has their own easy to read plot. The first is a happy love story between to college students. The second is a haunting but realistic story of a soldier back from war. The third is a happy but also a tragic story of a father and son trip to a carnival and farm. All three of these short stories I can see being built on and added to other books or becoming books of their own. The author wrote them well and I can’t wait to read more in the future! If you want some small quick stories to read these ones are great!!

I enjoyed this book. This is a new author for me and I look forward to reading more from her in the future. This is the first book in this series and I can’t wait to see what is next in this series. I found this book to be a well written story that has a little bit of everything in it. It is full of mystery, action and even a little romance. The characters brought the story to life and kept me turning pages. This is an engaging story that I had a hard time putting down. This is a story about Nash who is a Marine returning home and not expecting to meet Betsy. She is falling for him. This is where the story takes on suspense and mystery. I enjoyed the chemistry and growth throughout this story with these two. The attraction is there from the beginning. Nash is a hurt Marine but Betsy has her own fears that must be overcome. What happens to these two you will have to read this book to find out. It really is a great story that I enjoyed and I highly recommend it.

This is the second book in the Code Of Honour Series. It was a really enjoyable book. Even though it is part of a series it can be read and enjoyed on its own. I love the characters. The author does an amazing job of making character’s you fall in love with. The story itself is fast paced and you can’t put it down because you want to find out what happens to the characters.

Georgia Clay by KG Fletcher is the first book in the Southern Promises series. I really enjoyed reading the story of a romance between a country music writer and a career-minded woman. The two seem an unlikely pair but it develops from a long night of talking to a long-distance romance. Can Georgia Clay and Katie Parker make their differences work? I liked these characters because they are not just young, beautiful, and talented but still have a realness to them. There are struggles and moments of being unsure but the two matches each other well. I read through this quickly and did not want to put it down until I finished the story. I appreciate the author putting so much of herself into the book with her knowledge of the music business in Nashville to create a realistic and engaging read. I look forward to where this series goes next and reading more from this author soon.

This is a series I am going to have to finish from start to finish. I loved it truly with all my soul. The characters were beyond relatable, and that normally is something I will go out of my way to find for representation in my self when reading a book. And I basically was more than drawn with relations both to the main characters. This story was beautiful, emotional, and worth every page with every word I read.
I must have a say in the way the story flowed, the author knew certainly how to draw her readers in, tease them with some nice treats, and lead them more down the rabbit hole of the book. I had a few nights of not sleeping so I went to read, I told myself again and again just a few more pages, and those turned into a few more chapters, and that turned into oh would you look at that, I fished the book!
SO Yes Indeed Wyatt and Annabelle were relatable to me. They had hardships, but not just any hardships, it was events they had each gone thru in their life times that shaped them to be who they are today along with their wounded hearts. The ability to prevent themselves from finding love and trust in someone, or let alone using those two words in the same sentence. They did not have a fairy tale romance experience, but perhaps this second encounter of coming back into one another’s life, perhaps there was something stull burning that they felt was burned out long ago?
Yes they had their similarities, and both were quite strong willed. I found they both were also as fragile as a fortune cookie. But what both of them didn’t know, is not how much they wanted, but how much they needed one another Not just in their lives, but to fix their hearts that both have been wronged so much before and to finally, give their hearts a chance to heal and feel again.
This book helped me reflect on my past relationships. The memories they brought me, the the sad and emotional times, and the hurt and trust issues I had gained from them. And how it made me not want to find love as I felt it was easier not to get hurt. I met my now husband by a sheer chance of fate, and I learned when you have a chance to male a leap and feel all you need even how afraid you are, just hold your breath and take that jump.
Annabelle and Wyatt had to do just that. It wasn’t easy to gallop or walk down the road from both their ends, but in the end they had a connection they could not deny and they chose the path that was best for them and learned from this experience, not just about themselves, but about life, love, and to trust their hearts, for when its telling you something, even though how scary and crazy it may sound you are best to trust your heart fully with no doubts.
This was a inspirational, beautiful, captivating, as well as moving series. It brought on a lot of smiles and emotions for me. I’m so happy I read this book and walked in Wyatt’s and Annabelle’s shoes, I learned a lot not just about them, but about myself as well as realizing how lucky I am to be married to the love of my life.
Amazing start to a series. I can not wait for the next one as I will be anxiously waiting for the next book. This author knows how to write and bring forth beautiful writing and a beautiful story.
Thank you Olivia Sherwood for this beautiful start to series, that truly has captured my heart!

Unlikely in Love was the first book I’ve read by Ashlie Knapp and I fell in love with it from the beginning. Told in dual POV of Annabelle and Wyatt, we see each of their inner feelings and turmoil they go through. Annabelle gets the surprise of a lifetime when the lawyer reads her grandmothers will and states the amount of money she’s been in the dark about. When she gets asked by Wyatt if she needs help on the farm, she’s shocked and also instantly attracted. She guards her heart and he hides his pain. Can she move past the mistakes she’s made? Wyatt is a war hero and deemed not ready for work, but that doesn’t stop his dads meddling. As he works on Annabelle’s farm, and then starts to date her, he’s happy again. When Annabelle’s nice gesture backfires, he needs a few days alone. But the pain of not seeing her is worse than he expected. Can they move forward? Who knew Annabelle’s crazy grandma could essentially bring these two together even if she’s no longer here. I loved these two and their friends as well, I was laughing along with them all. These two were so different and they complimented each other well. I can’t wait to read more from this author and I hope maybe we see someone for Griff??!!

Bad Man on Campus is book three in the Big Men on Campus series by Stephanie Queen. This high quality second chance romance was often hard to read as it pulled on the old heart strings, but easy to relate to. These characters were high school sweethearts who lost their way. Life was often cruel and my heart hurt for Glory. I got the feeling that both were missing pieces of themselves. Tragedy reigned, but love triumphed. They were given another chance at that elusive ever after.
Bad Man on Campus was a scorching hot read that will arouse and astound. A gripping tale that left fond memories. 4 stars

Brooke May’s second book, Taking Flight in the Code of Honor series is a military romance story that it is so easy to get lost in. Brooke’s characters are written in such a way that you become fully invested in them and so immersed in their lives. Brooke is one of those authors that you see her name and you just have to have the book. Grab a drink and settle in for a while and relax into this sweet story.
Fame isn’t all it’s cracked up to be even if you aren’t the star and Military life can be hard and some down time gave more than they both thought possible. But the one thing they both can agree on is the freedom to fly.

Jane Suen has given us short stories in Beginnings and Endings: A Selection of Short Stories. Even though the stories are very short Jane did not skimp on the descriptive content. Each one is as different as night and day and evoke emotions a little pain, a bit of sweetness and a little bit of fun. Jane has mixed a lot of heart and feels in to make the stories memorable. My only complaint is they were too short. It would be good to see them made into longer stories. And just when you thought you were finished Jane gave us a little added bonus.

Physical therapist Holly Maryn likes to play it safe. Losing her father in a tragic mountaineering accident left her extra careful in all areas of life—so careful, that her love life is frozen solid. But she’s content to weather another Christmas season buried in a winter wonderland of work, warmed by the laughter of her best girlfriends.
Former Olympic snowboarder Blake Bellows lives life on the edge. Or at least, he did until a degenerative bone disease stole his left leg and, with it, his career. Still, he’s determined to climb his way back to the top of the athletic world, whatever the cost. But his dream is thrown into jeopardy when a wild run down the mountain tangles him in the skis and life of a golden-haired beauty.
An infuriatingly honest woman he never wants to see again.
And yet, she proves to be the one person equally as determined to see him recover.
Holly and Blake find common ground and overcome their fears together in this twinkling, mistletoe-clad tale of hope and perseverance.
Being fired is not a pleasant experience, although it’s something I’ve become good at. I’ve had more jobs than most people have in a lifetime. When my gran has an accident, I find myself volunteering to manage her seaside café. I’m the last person anyone should rely on, but for some crazy reason, I’m on my way to save the day. What could possibly go wrong?
Adam
Clover Bay is my home. Keeping my head down and enjoying the simple life is all I want. Jody’s temporarily staying in the village to help her grandmother. At first, she seems high maintenance, but it isn’t long before I can see through the cracks. I don’t want to like her, but there is something about her I can’t stay away from.
Can one small village set two hearts free, or will Clover Bay become a distant memory of summer dreams for Jody?
Danielle lives in Yorkshire, England, with her husband, daughter, and tortoise. She enjoys reading, long walks, and crafting. Her dreams include writing stories, visiting magical places, and staying young at heart. The people who know her describe her as someone who has her head in the clouds and her mind in a book.

This is a book of four short stories which show how beginnings and ending can affect lives.
Story one is a couple sharing breakfast in a cafe, story two is a tale of how love overcomes all obstacles, the third story is a meaningful road trip gone right and the final story is about being picked out of a group.
A delightful selection of short stories which cheers the heart up.

This is a collection of short stories. The stories pull on your heartstrings and have a depth that comes through even though they are short. These stories deal with love, loss, and hardship. I enjoyed this author’s writing style. Hope to read a full-length novel by her as well.

Taking Flight is the second book in the Code of Honor series by Brooke May. Having read quite a few of Ms. May’s books over the past couple of years, I know I can rely on her to provide a captivating story that will pull me in, and tangle me in the lives of her characters as everything unfolds. Her characters are ‘real’ and relatable- I was completely invested in both the story and the characters. Jody and Holt had me rooting for them right from the beginning. They both so deserved to find their happiness. This is a superb contemporary military romance, with a little drama, chemistry, and plenty of emotion. Bring on Book #3! Happy Reading!

Admittedly, I do not prefer country music. However, if I had a high school crush that wrote songs about me… I probably would! This book had me from the beginning. I LOVE both Katie and Clay. They are perfect for each other! The ending almost had me in tears… You could FEEL the emotions coming off the page and swirling around inside you. <3
Side note, the author has a disclaimer at the beginning of the book that it is intended for an 18 and older reader. I appreciated their consideration for other readers in doing that.

This is the first book that I have read by this author and I was hooked. Clay is a Nashville country song writer and Katie is a workaholic who has climbed the corporate ladder one rung at a time. Their paths cross after 10 years at their high school reunion. It is fireworks from the beginning, but with their different lives, can they make things work? They both have to make some touch decisions. It was a cute love story and the characters jumped off the pages for me.

I loved this book! I found myself crying, smiling, and cheering as Katie and Clay connect and face many challenges in their budding long-distance relationship. They had amazing chemistry; not just physically, but emotionally too. This story is well written and well paced with relatable characters. I found it extremely hard to put down. This was the first book I have read by KG Fletcher, but it won’t be my last!

Real life has beginnings and endings. Sometimes we must face an end to open our eyes to a beginning. This book contains three short stories that opened my eyes to the way that life just happens. We never know what is out there, but we have to keep searching until we find the right path for ourselves.
In Beginnings and Endings, the short story that spoke to me the most is called “The Accident”. In “The Accident”, there is a couple who are starting their day. The story speaks of all their hopes and dreams which were changed because of an accident. (I’m not giving away the story because it’s much better to read.)

Beginnings and Endings was 4 super short stories. I almost with there was a bit more to them. I think they were way to short to base an opinion off of. I think this was about 35 pages in total and can be read in one sitting. It took me about 20-25 mins to read all 4. What I did read was good but just felt like it brought new meaning to the word short story lol. This author is not new to me and I have read many books by her and enjoyed just about all of them. Looking forward to more by this author.

This was my first Williams’ book and I am totally invested in the Pierce brothers! The romance is real, relatable, super slow burn with a little steam, and what healthy relationships look like. I’ve always been a fan of friends-to-lovers, but the nice guys always get me! I’ve been married to my best friend for 22 years and really enjoyed reading about love blooming between two amazing people. Most modern romance stories have a ton of angst and unhealthy behaviors, but Williams kept these super well-developed characters on a healthy path but allowed real life and real hurts to shape how they came to their HEA. I can’t wait until book 2, I don’t know why but I’m feeling more angst, more snark, and possibly more steamy bits scattered in!!

I loved Patience and Duke’s story, so I was so excited to read this one! Holt has such an easy-going vibe to him that I loved from the start. Not looking for anything serious, not thinking that sort of thing was even for him. Then BAM, Jody. Jody though? As much as I loved her, I also wanted to shake her for letting her sister treat her so awful. Jilly was a literal nightmare of a sister, but I was cheering by the end! This is one of those easy, sweet reads that’s perfect to curl up with and devour cover to cover.

Taking Flight by Brooke May is the second book in the Code of Honor series. This is a great story with two fantastic characters that I really fell in love with. I thought they were just right for each other. They had chemistry from the word go and this connection just seemed to keep building. I always enjoy this authors work. She knows how to develop the book well and keep you interested. This book is no exception. It is easy to get into and is on it this book you can just get lost in. This is a great follow up to book one and I am looking forward to whatever us next.

This book is the 2nd book in this series and I liked it just as much if not more than the 1st book. Hadley the main character is learning to navigate and balance life between high school, friends, and boys. She learns a lot about herself in this book. I love the lesson in this series and encourage others to read it regardless of age.

This is the second book in this series which is just as great as the first one. This author has continued to impress me with her writing skills and attention to details that give her stories a realistic feel. This book is no different. I enjoyed this romance story. The characters are written with a lot of heart and really just gave the story life on each page. They are relatable and made the story engaging. This is a fast paced story about Jody and her life in the shadows of her sister until she meets Holt. Will he help her take flight and take a chance of losing everything? What does fate have in store for these two? I enjoyed how their chemistry and attraction was really great. I truly enjoyed this story and it is one of my favorites by this author which I highly recommend.

This book is a perfect romance, Clay sees his high school crush Katie at their school reunion years later, they both realise there is still a spark between them and you find out that Katie also had the hots for Clay back in high school. After realising this they both decided to have a weekend full of hot sex, but a weekend is not going to be enough for them and they live miles apart due to career paths. Can they make it work? or will Clay have to sacrifice his job in songwriting that he worked so hard for finally spending his life with the one he loves.

Hidden in the shadows of her identical twin sister’s pursuit of fame and neglected by her family in their pursuit to fulfill her sister’s every whim, Jody gets fed up with putting her life on hold while fulfilling a contract to keep her sister’s career going.
After meeting Holt, a military pilot, while being mistaken for her famous sister, Jody realizes just how much she wants out of the life she’s trapped in to go after her own dreams. Jilly uses and abuses everyone around her like a spoiled brat, ignores fans, and causes everyone around her (especially Jody) to clean up the messes she makes as she acts out. After a mixup in his pursuit of Jody, Holt is maybe the first person to ever refuse Jilly and then stand up to her on Jody’s behalf.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and mistakenly read it before the first in the series. It works well as a standalone read, though, and now that I’ve finished the first book, as well, I find the only addition it really provides to this story is a little more backstory to Holt’s childhood friendships with people referenced in this book.
The author does a great job of sucking you into the storyline early on and keeping your interest as the mishaps, mistaken identity and chance meetings weave into a love story that’s romantic and heroic without making Jody into a damsel in distress and in need of rescue. This is less relatable than the first book in the series, which I’ve determined is one of my favorite reads in a while, but mostly because of Jilly’s fame, bratty behavior, and everyone around her caving to her every whim without check. Still a really solid story, though, and a recommended read.

Enjoyable story that I didn’t want to put down. The story is lively and easily kept my interest. I always wanted to know “what” was going to happen between these two. That really kept me going!
Tom IS the nicest guy ever! I’m not sure there are many left like him. His whole situation with Gemma was weird and finding out the reason…I got it! Chelsea seems like a sweetheart who just happen to choose the wrong men. They must be able to see her bleeding heart coming a mile away. Thank Goodness for her bestie, Nadia. She really put some zing into this story and I cant help but wonder about her and Luke.
Overall this is a wonderful story. I enjoyed meeting the characters and I cant wait for more in this series.

If you see me running away to Nashville to fall in love don’t question why! This book was the ideal romance. From the beginning that brings Clay and Katie together in a simple and flawless way, to the very end where EVERYTHING works out. There were a couple of times the author had me ready to throw my phone against the wall thinking that everything was going to go wrong. Of course with the hanging suspense it made the book all the better. The romance, the sexual tension, the southern boy, the family connections made this book phenomenal. Watching Katie and Clay come together and get their happy ending was honestly so fun!! I cannot wait for sequel. I would love to follow Heart or Katie and Clay in the future.
