Unlikely to Fit (Parker Lake) by Olivia Sherwood

Unlikely to Fit(Parker Lake) by Olivia Sherwood is a second chance romance that will pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. I’m a huge fan of this author and this series. This might be my favorite yet. Get ready to be taken on quite the emotional rollercoaster ride with this one. At some points I was crying (I’ve been very emotional lately) to absolutely laughing hard. Ioved all the characters, they are well developed and fun. I felt like I was apart of the story. This is Griff and Breckin’s story. She is truly trying to move on with her life after her ex left her for the young cheerleader but she’s finding its hard to do rhat since he’s the football coach at the school she works as a counselor. Griff oh mercy Griff’ s heart was shattered when the love of his life dies due to a accident. He’s not looking for love but neither is Breckin. Can these two be what the other needs to trust and love again? I can’t recommend reading this book enough. If you haven’t read the first book I highly recommend reading it as well. I can’t wait to see what she brings us next.

Griff is a big, muscular, tattooed teddy bear with a huge heart. He never thought he would find love again after losing his first love tragically. Then Breckin walks into his life and he’s genuinely smiling and happy again. He can’t stay away and the way that he calls her Jelly Bean just melts me. She’s been so hurt and embarrassed by her ex husband that she isn’t remotely interested in a relationship but she can’t help but be drawn to him. He looks so gruff on the outside but once she actually takes the time to get to know him she realizes what an amazing person he is as he wriggles his way firmly into her heart. Griff has a mee maw that is laugh out loud hilarious! I really love that this book has so much laughter mixed in with heart melting romance. There is a big tragic twist in the story that I wasn’t expecting but the ending is absolutely beautiful. I’m really looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

How to describe this sweet romance? For starters meemaw is awesome and you will fall in love with her for sure! Breckin is so sweet and not in a bad way. I adore her character and her strength for all she’s been through. And then there’s Griff. Mmm Griff in my mind is close to every girls dream guy. The one who makes you feel safe and beautiful. With everything that they have both been through its not surprising they are not interested in starting anything. But who knows what can happen if there’s chemistry? Is chemistry enough when your heart is broken?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A romantic comedy smash hit! I LOVED this book. The author develops relatable, funny characters with depth. You really get to know all of the characters, but deeply understand the hurts and joys of the main characters, which keeps the reader engaged with the story. I love the world created by the author and the relationships and friendships on display in her books, especially in this series. I laughed out loud many times— Meemaw’s character is something else!

In this story we dive deeper into the lives of Breckin and Griff, who have each had their heartbreaks and given up on love; however, they have caught one another’s eye. Will they take another chance on love? Could it ever work?

This is the second book in the series, so if you read the first, you already know many of the other characters in the book, which makes it even more engaging—though it could be read as a stand-alone. I enjoyed this book and Breckin and Griff’s story even more than the first book in the series and I cannot wait for the third!

This great contemporary romance has everything that a romance reader could possibly want. Full of second chances, chemistry, drama, humor, a small town and so much more make up this fantastic novel with fabulous characters. Having read the first book in this series I happily picked up this copy of book two and dived right in. Breckin is nursing a broken heart, while Griff is broken in his own way. But what will happen when she agrees to help him with his grandmother’s birthday party? Will Griff be able to make Breckin trust again? Will Breckin be able to see Griff’s gentle soul? Will they be able to heal each other’s hearts? You’ll have to read this wonderful novel to find out for yourself.

What do you get when you cross romance and comedy? One amazing story that will have you laughing, crying and jumping up and down when things go right for the characters. A beautiful starting over tale that combines a wonderful story line with ultra relatable characters. I really enjoyed watching Breckin fall for the devastatingly charming, but wholly broken, Griff. I loved the fact that the author shows that love can truly heal even the deepest of heartbreaks. If you’re looking for a story full of emotions, comedy, fun and love you have no further to look as this book will give you the charming HEA you are craving.

I am definitely glad that I read book 1 already since it made me feel more connected to the book. I really enjoyed Breckin and Griff’s story. The story was very relatable and engaging as well as easy to connect to. Meemaw was definitely one of my favorite characters in this book. I really look forward to reading Book 3.

My heart bled for the main character in this book as she tried to become resilient in the face of something she’d tried to overcome but when the story unravels, this story will have a tug that’s unmatchable. The chemistry between the two characters with their history (not just towards one another) but to be willing to give love a second chance. This is truly a feel-good book to curl up with any night of the week, it will have you laughing then crying and most of all, the characters will have you beaming from ear to ear.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly loved this second chance at love story and I enjoyed being back in the small town setting of Parker. Breckin Henderson and her football coach husband returned to her hometown of Parker, Oklahoma, only for him to leave her for the head cheerleader. Instead of running, Breckin remains in Parker and decides to build a new life for herself. Griff is a local who returned with a broken heart following the death of his girlfriend in a motorcycle accident. Griff now works as a bartender at the bar his grandfather owned and provides a listening ear for the locals. He also takes care of his elderly grandmother and takes her food shopping each week. Both Breckin and Griff have had their hearts broken once before and have insecurities, fears and trust issues but as their attraction grows and they get closer, they discover that they might be able to fall in love again.

Once again the setting is brought to life by the authors descriptive narrative and I felt fully immersed in small town life, and the gossip it brings. The characters are likeable and relatable and the chemistry between Breckin and Griff sizzled off the page. I liked catching up with characters from the previous book, although this can be read as a standalone story. This is an enjoyable and engaging read with plenty of drama, romance and some laugh out loud moments, mainly curtesy of Breckin’s grandmother. A wonderfully written and detailed story which kept me hooked, and happily turning the pages, I was hoping that Breckin and Griff would get their HEA. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.

5/5 Stars

Unlikely to Fit by Olivia Sherwood

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. The author sure had me hooked from the beginning. It was hard for me to put down once I started. This is the second book in the Parker Lake Novels.

Breckin has lost her husband to a newly graduated cheerleader. When she doesn’t leave town to get away from the gossip it may be a good thing. She meets Griff who is a gentleman and she can’t wait. If only she could get to work on time. The quote I chose for Breckin is: “Ugh! For the love of everything holy, please get the damn donkey out of the middle of the road!”

Griff comes home after the horrible loss of his girlfriend. He takes over taking care of his grandmother and running her around for errands. He also takes over his grandfather’s bar and when he meets Breckin he thinks he may have a chance. The quote I chose for Griff is: “It doesn’t really bother me. I met her dad at Meemaw’s party. I like him. Plus, I know Meemaw posted a picture of his butt on Instagram so I kind of have the upper hand on him.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Comedy lovers.

Breckin never saw her life turning out this way. She surely didn’t expect her husband to leave her. She’s not in the market for a new relationship, especially after how hers ended. She just moved back to Parker so she’s not running but staying isn’t as easy as one would think. Her ex husband working for the same high school definitely brings it’s own challenges. Griff knows loss and grief. Having his own pain doesn’t stop him from listening to the troubles of those around him as he runs his grandfather’s bar. These two have been broken and neither one of them have the desire to meet anyone new. Can these two broken hearted mend with each other?

I really enjoyed this book. There are so many emotions. I hurt for Breckin when her husband left her. She didn’t see that coming. She developed well through the story. She was strong and depended on herself when it mattered. Griff knew what it was like to lose someone and eventually opened his mind to exploring something with Breckin. I loved these characters and couldn’t put the book down!

5 +++++++ Stars

I can not explain how much I enjoy reading books by this author. Her smooth writing style is exactly what I enjoy about reading. The quick wit that is a part of the character dialogue, not to mention that they always just feel so real and like I’m sitting there a part of everything going on. I have read these out of order and am so glad I took the time to go back and start at the beginning. Breckin and Griff are two of my favorite characters from this series. I met them in Book 3 then again in book 1. As I said, I’ve read totally out of order, but it doesn’t matter, they are that good.

Griff’s meemaw and Wyatt’s niece Hattie totally stole the story on every page they showed up on. They made me smile and laugh out loud more than once.

The friendships and family aspect of this whole series has me completely hooked. I want to move there and insert myself into this group of people. The progression of Griff and Breck’s relationship was actually beautiful. Knowing each other as long as they had, it felt natural the way everything happened. The sadness they both endured separately yet worked so hard to heal together. There were times I just wanted to scream at certain characters in this story. So it is safe to say, I experienced just about every emotion possible while reading. I love that, and not wanting to put the book down and definitely not wanting it to end!

I can not recommend reading this whole series high enough. Definitely one of my favorite authors ever and I seriously can’t wait to read book 3 again after finishing this one.

I LOVED IT!!

Parker, Oklahoma and it’s residents have stolen my heart! I absolutely loved this book. I love the small town vibe, I loved the humor and loved just how easy it was to fall into this story. Breckin was heartbroken. Griff was heartbroken. Finding love after heartbreak and navigating those scary waters is so bittersweet. Also, relatable. It’s not always sunflowers and daisies in love. This book was the perfect book to cuddle up with and enjoy, I couldn’t put it down!

This is the second book in the series and I was looking forward to reading it as I really enjoyed reading Annie and Wyatt’s story in the first book.
In the book we get Breckin and Griffin’s story. Breckin is one of the group of female friends from the first book and Griffin is Wyatt’s friend. I remember loving the closeness and camaraderie of the group of friends and this is just as evident in this book. It’s lucky that Breckin has such a good support network as her husband left her for one of the cheerleaders at the school they both teach at, as soon as she had graduated. Griffin still hasn’t come to terms with the loss of his girlfriend in a motorcycle accident. Needless to say both are pretty broken and definitely not looking for love. Although they do say that love sometimes sneaks up on you when you least expect it.
I absolutely loved reading Breckin and Griffin’s story. Both are fantastic characters that I loved reading. However, I must say that for me the star of the show definitely has to be Meemaw, Griffin’s 90 year old grandmother. She had me in fits of laughter throughout although I must add that the part of the story set at Thanksgiving has to be my favourite part of this book. It is hilarious. I won’t give any spoilers but I guarantee plenty of laughs.

This is the second installment of the Parker Lake Novel series that I have read and this one was just as good as the previous book. I will suggest that you read the books in order so that you can get a clear understanding of the characters, but I don’t feel that it’s a must as the author does a phenomenal job with her descriptions. Despite the cover photo, which had me a little concerned, this was such a hilarious, romantic comedy. I couldn’t put it down and can’t wait to get my hands on book three. If you are a series fanatic of romantic comedies like me then you will love this book and I highly recommend it. I think that this would be a great series for you and your friends to read together because you would have so much to discuss. It may even remind you of people and places that you know. A very good book.

Unlikely to Fit is the second book in the Parker Lane series but can be read as a standalone. This is my first book by this author but it will not be my last because i enjoyed the story alot and i really liked the authors writing style as well. The main characters of this story were super likeable and i adored them both. Breckin and Griffin have both been through the ringer and the growth they both had throughout the story made them that much more awesome. I couldn’t put this one down because i wasn’t ready for their story to end! I am excited for this author to put out more books in the future and i would recommend this to a friend!
Happy Reading!

This was a great 5 star read. We have Breckin and Griff in a small town both trying to move forward from hurtful pasts. Unfortunately Breckin’s past works at the same school as she does. Needing a girls night out she and her two friends go to Griffs bar.

Griff has no intentions of moving forward, his wife was his one true love. But…something about Breckin pulls him in. The more time that these two spend together the closer they become. Can they heal their broken hearts and find true love again?

Overall I really enjoyed this read, my emotions were all over the place. We get LOL moments, drama, crying and so much more. I LOVED all of the characters. Griff’s Grandma and Breckins friends had me LOL so many times. I would love to have a feisty grandma like Griffs. If you’re looking for a great 2nd chance romance that gives you a little bit of everything then this is the one for you. 1-click and get started today.

I was so in love with this book and everything that went along with it, it was touching and full of emotions with all those feelings. I loved the craftmanship and the way the author wrote this gripping story, it was not one I could put down at all! It was so good from start to finish, a must read for sure!

Brekin, I truly loved. She was such a sweet heart and she had underwent a loss of what she thought was suppose to real true love. She learned otherwise. I felt for her when her boyfriend left her for the girl on the cheer squad. Believing something is the perfect fit, then its gone, in an blink of an eye! From pain and anger, and well shock she meets Griffin through an unexpected counter Sparks flew, but were they meant to last? Were they to be only as long as a fire work show, or would they blast through the galaxy forever?

I loved their relationship so much! Brekin and Griffin were so good together in more ways than one. I loved how they connected, and needed each other more than they saw fit to realize, and they both came from broken hearts in different circumstances, that truly made them right for each other. There was a lot of emotions with these characters, the story was engaging and so very beautiful, and emotional!

I loved this book as I hope I have made clear. The writing was wonderful and the story along with the characters and character development, that was truly undeniable. I think this is a new favorite author of mine, and I need to read the previous in the series. Amazing read and high recommendation from me!

Oh, how I loved this book! I laughed and teared up and felt the entire spectrum of emotions as I read Breckin’s story. This is pretty much exactly what I want when I disappear into a good book, and exactly what I got. I quickly fell into this book and found myself reading well into the night and honestly lost track of time so fast that it soon was 4 am, that is how good this book was for me. I just had to know how things would turn out for Breckin. But I was also so sad when it was over because I felt like I said goodbye to a best friend. I really connected with her and became attached. The side characters were just as amazing and strong. I can’t wait to see what will come next for Parker Lake.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Unlikely to Fit is a second chance at love romance. This is a standalone book in the Parker Lake series.

Breckin is a strong and independent women who had her heart broken by her husband. When she moved back to her hometown she expected to have the perfect life. However, that was not the case. Her husband left her for a newly graduated cheerleader and she was left with the wreckage he caused. One drunken girls night puts Breckin on a path she didn’t see coming and his name is Griff. Breckin starts to have feelings for Griff but she keeps second guessing herself and isn’t sure if she can put herself out there again.

Griff moved back to Parker when his childhood sweetheart died unexpectedly. Griff is a catch. He is handsome, tattooed and kind to everyone. He is the kind of man who takes his Meemaw grocery shopping and plans her 90th birthday. However, he has not truly joined the living since his love passed. Things start to change when he keeps running into beautiful Breckin. He feels attracted to her but is he willing to move on from his first love?

This second chance at love book is sweet and funny. Griff’s meemaw is hilarious. I love all of the characters in this book, but Meemaw is my favorite. She is like most of the women in this book. Fierce, intelligent and independent, but she has so much hilarious fire in her. I absolutley love how this book describes small towns to a T. Between news traveling faster than a cheetah and old time regulars who do not like any change. Parker is a town filled with loyal, caring and protective characters. It just makes me want to live there! I can’t wait to visit Parker again in book 3.

Breckin is definitely not in the market for a new man. Her ex-husband left her for a high school cheerleader and she still has to see him at work (although she avoids him at all costs). After a particularly bad day, her and her girlfriends go out for margarita’s at the local bar. After a few too many, the cute bartender volunteers to make sure she gets home safely and her friends are ready for her to move on in the relationship department.
Griff is busy running his bar and has no time, or desire, to find a woman to share his life with. He had that once…but his desire for a relationship died right along with her. When he takes Breckin home one night, a friendship begins that has him feeling things he hasn’t felt in a long time. To spend more time with her, he asks her to help plan his grandmother’s birthday. The more time they are around each other, the more feelings grow.
But…can either of them move on from their pasts? And what happens when their pasts refuse to be moved on from?
I enjoyed Breckin and Griff’s characters. And Griff’s grandma…loved her!! Both Breckin and Griff have had pasts that could make it hard to open up their hearts again. Their story is cute and romantic…but real and relatable. Overall, a good story.

Unlikely to Fit, the 2nd book in the Parker Lake series is a quick romance filled with wonderful characters. Breckin has returned home to Parker, Oklahoma where her husband leaves her for the just graduated, former head cheerleader of the high school. Griff is a man who lost his love in a tragic accident. He returns home to the simplicity of Parker and his family, to include his grandmother who is quite the character. These two former acquaintances from high school days reunite and attraction rides high. These two must decide if they are willing to risk more heartache at another chance for love and a happier future.
The author wrote all characters so well, including the supporting ones who I hope we get more on in future installments of this series. Breckin and Griff are both just kind, giving and wonderful people that you root for their happiness. Griff’s grandmother is just a one-of-a-kind lady who you cannot help but to adore, quirks and all! Not only do I want more details and books on Breckin’s best friends, but I also would love a book in this series for her dad. I really enjoyed the glimpse of his character throughout this story. I will definitely be on the lookout for the next in this series.

Breckin is TRYING to move on with her life after her ex left her for a recently graduated, high school cheerleader. Unfortunately, it is very difficult for her because he is the football coach at the same high school where she is a counselor. Griff is a broken hearted man who lost the love of his life five years earlier. Both are not looking for another significant other and yet, they find themselves intrigued by each other. Can Breckin trust her heart to a man who is still mourning the loss of his first love? Can Griff move past grief to see the phenomenal woman who loves him?

This is the second installment of the series that takes place in Parker, OK. I really love this series. The female characters are strong, supportive, and not afraid to be vulnerable. I love the relationships, the witty humor, and the town! Small town living is exactly like it is described in this book!

I would recommend this book for 18 plus!

Breckin is nursing a broken heart after her husband leaves her for a younger woman. Griff, also broken, comes home to Parker after a accident. I love how this story intertwines two people that were hurt in the past to become close. Can I also just say I loved Griff’s grandmother! This is a book with a small town feel and all about overcoming hurt and to trust again. Truly a great read and I highly recommend this book!

This was a lovely romance story about two people who get a second chance at love. The characters are really well written and the author really brings the characters to life. You really feel the pain these characters go through and you also feel their strength and love as they learn to let their guards down and learn to love again. This is also the second book in the Parker Lane Series.

Breckin Henderson returned home with her husband. She thought her life was set until her husband left her for the head of the cheerleading team. Now her life is falling apart and she needs to rebuild it. However this time it has to be done in a town where everyone knows your business.

Griffin is a hardworking man. He’s got a gentle soul and is willing to help anyone. He has also been hurt in love and has shut himself off from the possibility of finding love.
So what happens when these two people with heartbreak in their past meet and get to know one another. Can they find love between their broken hearts? And with the added pressure of small town gossip will their romance be killed before it even begins.

This is the second Parker Lake story, but the first one I have read. From the opening scene where Breckin gets out of her car to help the sheriff move a donkey out of the middle of the road, I was hooked. I lived in a small town where livestock and wildlife could delay your travel time to work.
This story did a great job of showing how quaint small-town life can be. Everyone knows everyone, knows everyone’s business, and knows all the town gossip. I enjoyed the comedy relief that Olivia Sherwood put in her story. Breckin and Griffin have their friends rooting for them to get together, they both deserve a happy ending after the heartache they have both been through.

She shares an apartment with her older brother’s friend Tom who is not only good looking, stable and considerate, but he is a good guy and he has grown tired of listening about her dating disasters all while developing feelings for her. One day inspiration strikes and Chelsea’s friend Nadia entices Tom to give Chelsea a week with a good guy to get her over all the bad ones. Seems harmless enough at first, but as the week progresses, they both find each other falling and wanting each other as more than just friends. Can they stay friends and roommates after this week, or will the sparks fly and they become more? You will root for their budding romance as you continue to read and you will find yourself not able to put the book down until you know what will happen. This book truly was such a great read with characters full of heart that you so easily connect with. And the steamy scenes will have you sweating! Believe me when I say you want to read this book!!
