The Way You Are was a good 4 star read and book five in the Carolina Connections series.
Brett meets Liv at a baseball game but quickly finds out that she has a boyfriend who plays for the team. Brett was quickly put in the friend zone with Liv.
The friendship grows between these two and his attraction to Liv continues to grow. And the jealousy continues to build from Troy, he doesn’t like Liv hanging out with Brett. The best I could hope for was that she’d eventually lose interest in Troy and decide she liked me instead – Brett
While out with a bunch of his friends Brett witnesses something that changes everything. He talks to Liv’s cousin letting him know what he saw. Could this be his chance to finally have Liv for himself?
There are some more unexpected twists and turns that added a great element to the story. I also had several LOL moments. Overall I really liked Brett and Liv’s story. Sylvie Stewart pulls you in with her writing, I look forward to reading more from her.

The Way You Are (Carolina Connections Book 5) by Sylvie Stewart 4 out of 5 stars
This book is about friends, love, baseball and the love of baseball, and I loved every minute of it. Poor, sweet Brett has found himself Mayor of Friendzone on more than one occasion. But when he meets the passionate and fiery Liv, he is willing to do anything to make a permanent move out of that territory and into boyfriend land. To bad that position is already filled by a baseball playing He-Man who could easily crush Brett.
Liv tells herself that she can have Brett as a friend. I mean really, women and men can be friends and nothing come of it. At least, that is what she keeps telling herself, until she develops a crush on Brett and is not sure what do about his persistent nature.
The quick and witty banter between these two was adorable. The situations the found themselves in was equally hilarious, and the dual POV was refreshing to be continuously placed in the frame of mind of each character. I highly recommend this book.

Sylvie Stewart just has the knack for writing great romantic comedy. Book one was just the best and this one is just as good.
Fiona Pierce has loving and devoted parents but she feels obligated to do the right thing when they ask. She has great friends and she is fiercely loyal to her best friend Laney but she hides a secret from her past that she doesn’t want to share. Fiona has a huge heart and she will do anything she can for anyone she holds dear. Fiona loves the finer things in life especially the gods of clothes and shoes. Everyone just loves this quirky lovable woman except for one man. One man that finds her totally annoying who she just loves to push his buttons. She doesn’t do relationships but there is one man she loves to hate.
Mark Beckett loves women but never more than once that way there is absolutely no complications in his life. Between work, women and the gym he is happy with his lot in life, all except his past. A past that he would like to forget. A past that is now back to haunt him and his family and turn it on his head. Not only having to deal with his past he has to deal with a meddling do gooder that he loves to hate.
Can Mark and Fiona overcome their past and their fears and learn to put their trust in the one person that may understand them more than they know? Will love be found in the most unlikely places?
As with book one this book had me laughing out loud at the banter between all the characters, but especially between Mark and Fiona. I also love Fiona’s internal dialogue it is absolutely hilarious. The Spark is full of fun, intrigue, love, laughter and is 100 percent pure entertainment. I love the way Sylvie brings her characters to life and makes you feel you are a part of their lives. I highly recommend this book to one and all and can guarantee you will not be disappointed

Just WOW. I have to say that I have not enjoyed a book as much as this one in a long time. Sylvie Stewart has hit it with this perfectly blended quirky romantic comedy.
Laney Monroe is a twenty five year old single mum who is working in a job that she finds unfulfilling but it pays the bills and keeps a roof over her head. She has her best friend Fiona would do anything for her, who is always there for her and will never let her down. She shares her house with her five year old son Rocco who is just your typical little boy and her brother Gavin. After having a bad few years Gavin finally finds a job and Laney counts her blessing. After a family emergency Nate Murphy has returned home. Along with his sister it’s a no brainer they take the reins for their family business. But it may be a little more than they thought. When Nate faces off against one sassy and spunky Laney Monroe his life is forever changed. Family is everything.
Does Nate find something he wasn’t looking for? Will Gavin finally find his way? Will Laney and Rocco find a new beginning?
I was literally laughing until I was crying with this book. I was so wrapped up in the book that before I knew it it had ended. Laney is absolutely hilarious and had me laughing out loud at every turn. Her best friend Fiona is just as much a crack up as Laney but the two together are one hell of a team. The story is well paced and the characters are well developed, honest and very realistic that I could totally relate to. The Fix is funny and witty and will definitely leave you with a light heart and a smile on your face. If you are looking for a great story full of drama, romance, love and laughter then look no further. The story is so refreshing that I can not wait to read The Spark and I see what Sylvie comes up with next.
