Falling for You (Buckeye Falls Book 2) by Libby Kay – Review by Shelly Kittell

Falling for You (Buckeye Falls, #2)Falling for You by Libby Kay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oh man, CeCe and Evan’s story is as sweet and touching as Ginny and Max’s. We got a sneak peek at them in Falling Home. I loved this story. A blast from the past heartbreak comes at CeCe and Evan is there to help. The question is, will she let him. The story is delightfully touching and heartwarming. These two have chemistry that you feel sparking through the whole book. The characters are delightful. Max and Ginny, Natalie and Evan’s family are entertaining. Such fun characters. Some are not, they are putz, but they play a role. This a beautiful story that adds to the romance that one can find in Buckeye Falls. I hope this author will share more Buckeye love with us.

Welcome to Buckeye Falls, Ohio!

Sparks fly in this small town as everyone’s favorite gruff pastry chef finally gives the sweetest guy in town a chance.

CeCe LaRue knows what she wants in life, and in the kitchen, and that’s control. She doesn’t have time for distractions—from her past or present. But that doesn’t mean a certain bright-eyed coworker hasn’t captured her heart.

Evan Lawson is a chronic optimist, and he brings his sunny disposition to everything he does, especially his job at the diner. It’s obvious why he loves his job so much, and it has everything to do with CeCe. He’s been crushing on her for a while, but he’s biding his time. Much like the perfect recipe, love cannot be rushed.

When a major food competition comes to town, Evan is thrilled at the prospect of competing. Despite her stellar culinary skills, CeCe is hesitant to participate. The celebrity chef host is more than a pretty face; he’s the painful past she’s been outrunning for years.

Can CeCe open herself up to the prospect of love and give Evan a chance? Can Evan’s optimism keep them both afloat?

Reckless Heart (Second Chance Romance Series Book 2) by Jane Suen – Review by Heidi Sturgess

Reckless Heart (Second Chance Romance #2)Reckless Heart by Jane Suen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Just loving the cover and even more so once I got lost in between the pages ❣️📕

Brad , Mary and Jim were school friends and Brad had a soft spot for Mary but before he gets the chance to admit how he feels Jim swoops in and Mary becomes his girl . Brad kept tabs on them and I don’t think he ever let her go ….

Brad has to head home for his sisters wedding and while he’s there he’ll check in on his new project , he’s in construction and he’s building a tiny home community with a shared garden that’s eco friendly and green friendly so other than surviving the weekend he’s got that to keep him busy

As I said I don’t think Brad every really let Mary go and he’s always held a candle for her and that’s really evident when their paths cross again and all he wants to do is protect her , rekindle what they had and let it blossom into something more oh and make sure other men leave her alone 😂🙈🥰

Mary and Jim’s break up is till a little fresh so I get that Mary is a little hesitant or careful but Brad works his magic in so many different ways , I even fell I. Love with him and I’ve been happily married for 21 years !!!! 😂❣️

I just loved being part of this journey and it was good for the soul to catch up with old friends and family and these people truly are friends that become family and you just want to be apart of it all ! These are people you’ll go to war for ❣️

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This author is talented in more ways than one. not only does she have a way with words, but those words really hit you deep down, no matter what is going on in your personal life, you’re bound to fall in love with the characters that run deep in these pages. The world building itself is amazing, but I am never let down by her ability to draw you in and spit you out at the end, leaving you wanting to reread everything she brings to the table.

These characters are certainly ones that we have all read of before, that second chance love that everyone, or at least, myself, longs for day after day, year after year. The one that got away, the one you know that you would do anything you could to have back in your grasp. Maybe you don’t realize it, maybe they don’t but eventually, time heals all wounds. Dive into this love story, and I’m sure you will understand what I am talking about! Highly recommend.

Reckless Heart (Second Chance Romance #2)Reckless Heart by Jane Suen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Brad and Mary grew up together and had secret crushes on one another in high school, but never got together. Brad moved away so he didn’t have to watch her be with someone else and used his time to keep hustling and growing his own business.

When he travels back home a decade later for an old friends wedding, a local cupid makes sure Mary and Brad end up running into each other, and nudges in all the right places to coax conversation about past misunderstandings. What will come of clearing the air?

Mary is down to earth, believable, likable. Brad is hardworking, a bit stubborn, also likable. A little dreamy, sweet. Can take a little time to get into it and get the feel for the presentation. Enjoyable world building. Second book in the series but easily standalone.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is Mary and Brad’s story- we met these characters previously in Book One. They have been friends since they were children with many secret feelings which were never told. Hearts were broken and it seemed as though things were lost forever. Life has a way of changing and they are reunited through fate. Old feelings are stirred up yet again but will the past hinder a future relationship? A fantastic read.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is book two of the series but can be read as a standalone. This is a contemporary second chance romance.

Mary and Brad were friends growing up until Mary broke Brad’s heart. Brad is back in town for his sister’s wedding and still holds onto his hurt feelings from all those years ago. Mary is fresh off of a break up ready to do her own thing. Thanks to a mutual friend, Mary and Brad reconnect but it’s not as easy as that. They are forced to face the past and all of the hurt and misunderstandings. Will the crushes they both had lead them to a second chance?

I really enjoyed this book! Mary’s character was relatable. Brad was a little harder to like but his holding on to the grudge he had against Mary worked for the storyline. Overall it was a good book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mary and Brad have some history together but not the kind that Brad was really wanting to have. His heart was broken by Mary right before prom when she chose another man. Such is the life of men all over the country today. However, in the case of Mary and Brad, they are given an second chance at love when a well-meaning friend brings them back together.

I enjoy reading books by this author. They are real, raw, clean romance novels that have you feeling like you are a part of the story, or at least watching from the closest armchair. The characters are relatable and you’ll be cheering them on in their journey. There are a lot of ups and downs but in the end, the second chance is worth it!

Have you ever had a lost love story that you’d like to have a second chance on?

I adored this second chance romance. The characters were lovable, the storyline believable, and the setting endearing. Brad and Mary missed their chance in high school, will they have better luck ten years later?  Jane Suen has an engaging style that pulls you right in. I loved this sweet little tale.

Reckless Heart (Second Chance Romance #2)Reckless Heart by Jane Suen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Good second-chance romance!

Brad and Mary had crushes on each other back in high school (even if they never admitted it to each other)…but Mary ended up dating Brad’s friend Jim. As soon as Brad could leave after graduation, he did. He has been busy growing his own business while keeping the past in the past. However, a return home for a wedding changes all that.

Mary has just experienced a break-up and is single and ready to mingle. When she is pushed together with her past crush at her sister’s wedding, she is ready to see what kind of fun she can have. When Brad and Mary get to reminiscing about the past, will they be able to move past the misunderstandings of their younger selves? Do they have a future? Or is whatever they could have had doomed by the past?

This was quick read that I enjoyed spending time with. This is the second book in the series…with some crossover characters…but you don’t have to have read the first one to understand what is happening. I think both characters were relatable and their story made for entertaining reading. Overall, a good book.

An easy, sweet read. The author does a wonderful job creating a setting and developing characters in such a short read!

Mary and Brad are believable characters and the reader can feel their struggle and tension with one another as they hold on to pain from the past. Coming back into each other’s lives wasn’t what they had planned, but can they work through the pain from the past to have something better than they ever had?

This is a sweet, clean story about second chances and a journey through healing wounds from the past. It is an easy, quick read that keeps your attention and is easily finished in one sitting and is recommended if you looking to pick this one up!

Reckless Heart (Second chance romance series Book 2)

I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to read other books by this author and enjoyed each of them. She hasn’t pigeon holed herself in one genre which means you never know what she will be releasing next.

The local cupid is working her magic to help two hearts reconnect after several years apart and she’s pretty slick. I even fell for it.

Mary and Brad have some pain associated with the other but even after more than ten years those wounds aren’t completely healed.

Mary keeps way too much to herself and I wish she had reached out to her sister or anyone really.

Brad probably keeps way too much to himself too, but I think he reason is a little different. He’s a good guy with a great heart.

Looking forward to what comes next from her.

This book is the second book in the Second Chance series by this author, but can be read alone. Mary and Brad used to be friends. They grew apart over the years and recently reconnect, thanks to a mutual friend. Mary was looking for love after ending a long-term relationship. Brad hadn’t yet found someone to share his life.
Can they forget a painful and embarrassing experience from high school and find love with one another as adults?
I like Mary’s character. I find her to be believable and relatable. I don’t care for Brad’s character as much. He seems superficial to me.
Overall, I enjoyed this book and look forward to more stories from this author.

Reckless Heart (Second Chance Romance #2) by Jane Suen

This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. Reckless Heart is the second book in the Second Chance Romance Series. Reckless Heart is a great read. The author knows how to build words.

Mary has broken up with her long term boyfriend. Right before her sister’s wedding. Now she’s single and her old high school crush is back in town. Can they hash out the past and move forward with the future? The quote I chose for Mary is: “You’re planning to expand?”

Brad is back in town for Katie’s wedding. He doesn’t plan on sticking around for long. Then a friend sets him up with the one who broke his heart. Can he get past that and everything else that has happened? The quote I chose for Brad is: “Kell? She’s long gone. Kell almost broke me, pulling a stunt behind my back. She was ruthless, aggressive, and greedy, and became a competitor who’d do anything to get an edge on a business she was secretly setting up. And that’s what she did. Double-crossed me. In hindsight, it was a hard lesson. I’d trusted her again, but I learned from it, and in the end, I became a better person, and the business is in a better place.”

Highly recommended for Sweet Romance lovers.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I thoroughly enjoyed this heartwarming second chance at love sweet romance. I was kept happily turning the pages of this standalone story, which had me hooked throughout. Mary had a secret crush on Brad when they were younger, but thinking he wasn’t interested in her, she ended up dating Brad’s friend Jim. Meanwhile, Brad left his hometown after he graduated, as he didn’t want to see his friend and the girl he had a crush on together. Having put his past regrets, of not confessing his feelings to Mary, behind him, he’s worked hard building his construction business into a success, but he’s forced to return home for his sister’s wedding.
His plan is to get through the weekend and then leave, but then he meets Mary again, and she’s newly single and ready to date. Mary is surprised to come face to face with her school crush, but instead of a shy lanky boy, Brad is now a gorgeous confident man, it’s just a shame he seems hesitant to get to know her again. When a matchmaking friend gets involved, Brad and Mary are forced to face the painful misunderstandings that cost them a relationship during their teenage years. I love Brad and Mary’s characters, as they are both likeable and relatable, and their chemistry really came across in the narrative. I was cheering the couple on hoping they would get their second chance at romance and a well deserved HEA!

This is one author I always enjoy reading new things from as she always seems to create sweet and interesting stories. I enjoyed this first book in this series and I was glad to see this book met my expectations. I enjoyed the characters in this book. It was nice to see their development and watch them reconnect after so many years.
The book itself was a little well written and exactly in the style I have come to expect from this author. It was a steady pace, a little slow at times, but with an engaging story overall. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Ahhhhhh! These two, Mary and Brad, drove me crazy. Seriously. They still have residual feelings from when they were in high school but each harbor hurt, anger or resentment about one incident that has colored everything since. BUT, neither want to talk about their feelings. Ugh!!!

This sweet romance of first love getting a second chance is good. The story is relatable and the characters are real. I just wanted to shake them both at different times and scream for them to talk to one another!! Like when Brad got all in his feelings when Mary asked if a family was in his future. I don’t believe she was trying to hurt him. I believe Mary was genuinely curious if that was something wanted in or for his future. *sigh* I was totally in favor of the way Laurie got Mary to the hospital.

To make the rock formation perfect, Mary needs to carve her and Brad’s initials, just like the original!!

Decent sweet romance.

Mary and Brad were friends in high school, but they always wanted more of that from each other, but life and bad decisions made them fall apart. After 10 years and a couple of weddings they are reunited by a friend in common. 

Both had a lot to say to each other but not the mental force to do so, but as the story develops they would find someone new in each other and a new opportunity to be something more than friends.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a beautiful second chance romance. It is a short read and I read it in one sitting. The author’s writing really draws you in. The characters are so likeable and relatable that you just know this had happened to someone somewhere and it makes the story even more realistic.
It’s a heartwarming story about young lost love, heartbreak and finding the strength to take a chance on a love that was lost in the past.

In this story we read about Mary and Brad. In their teenage years they had an attraction and spark but Brad’s shyness lead him to be too scared to let Mary know how he felt and he lost her when she started to date his friend.
Fast forward and things have definately changed. Brad is now a confident and successful man. He returns to his home town to attend Mary’s sister’s wedding. All he wants is to leave without the risk of losing his heart all over again.

Another big change is that Mary is single and finding her way in the world on her own. When she meets Brad again there is no denying that the attraction and feelings are still there.
The question is will they be prepared to take a chance on each other this time, or will the pain and misunderstandings of the past stop them from finding a future?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second installment in the Second Chance Romance Series by Jane Suen, though it can be read as a standalone book.
Mary and Brad, whom we met previously in book one, share their story of heartache, misunderstandings, love, and past humiliation. It’s been ten long years since these two childhood friends have talked or seen one another when one of their friends arranges for them to run into each other. Can they overcome the heartache of the past and the feelings that were never divulged in order to be friends or more? Are second chances really possible? Will the old feelings that resurface overshadow the pain, humiliation, and heartache of the past? Will Laurie continue her plotting and matchmaking schemes? She is truly an amazing character and friend in this series.
Jane Suen has written a beautiful, clean, feel good, story of love with heartwarming characters. I’m enjoying this series and hope to read more by this talented author.

Reckless Heart is the 2nd book in the Second Chances romance series. It could be enjoyed as a stand alone book. There are crossover characters and references, but there is enough background details provided that it doesn’t feel lacking. I really loved this book. Brad and Mary were friends in high school, and both had crushes on each other, but Mary ended up with one of Brad’s friends. A wedding brought them back into each other’s lives and a mutual friend pushed them together. They spent a holiday weekend reminiscing about the past. Will they both speak up about their feelings, both past and future? Or dwell on the hurt from teenage stupidity? Or perhaps bury the past and start over? Wouldn’t you like to know……

Jane Suen is a first time author for me. I wasn’t sure what to expect from Reckless Heart, especially being the second book in the Second Chance Romance series. Overall, this was a pretty good book. The characters were realistic, although I felt that some of their inner dilemmas were a little childish. Holding onto a hurt from ten years prior (when both parties were mostly oblivious to the feelings of the other party) seemed rather extreme to me, but did lend the story its main idea so it did work for the story. Jane Suen created a wonderful, realistic world as well. I did feel like the story ended rather abruptly, but overall, this was a good, quick read. I would recommend to anyone looking for a quick romance.

Brad and Mary were friends of the same group growing up until Mary embarrassed him and broke his heart. 10 years later he still holds that grudge. Reading the book, I was like ok it’s 10 years later…get over it!!! To say Brad annoyed me throughout the book is an understatement but oh well. When Brad shows up back in his hometown for a wedding, one friend arranges him and Mary to be at the same diner at the same time and then she runs out leaving them to have breakfast together.
They end up spending some time together even running into Mary’s ex who she ended up breaking Brads heart over. Will Brad be able to get over it and forgive Mary or will they just spend some time together as friends before Brad goes back to his life of making tiny houses? I guess I thought the book was well written. I have loved other books by this author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a really heartwarming sweet, second chance romance story. I had read the first book which I really enjoyed, so was happy to read the next book in the series.
As with the first book, I would have liked the book to be longer as i felt it came to quite an abrupt end. There was so much more scope to add to the story and at only 150 pages it felt more like a novella.

In saying that I really did enjoy Brad and Mary’s story. Both are great characters and I could easily relate to them. Both had crushes on the other as teenagers but were to shy to do anything about it. In fact Mary broke Brad’s heart when she ended up in a long term relationship with his best friend, who she has recently broke up with this. This time Brad is determined to get the girl.
The story is well written and flows well with enough action to keep you entertained and gripped by the story. I really would have liked to have read more about Brad and Mary.

Definitely recommend, especially if you want a quick read.

This was my first read in this series and I wasn’t lost. This book was a quick read, and could pose as a stand alone. At times I felt like I was reading a romance about high schoolers and not adults. The way situations were handled and reacted to, didn’t match the character’s ages in my opinion. It’s a cute romance, but I wish the main characters were more mature.
