Then Until Forever(Maple Brook,#1)

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 Thank you to author, Mase Evans and Beyond The Books PR for letting me be part of ARC Team! 
 
 
   10.06.26    

 

Avery Bennett hasn’t thought of Jax Anderson in four years. At least, that’s what she tells herself. She’s moved on from her high school boyfriend after he broke up with her before leaving for college. She’s built her own business from the ground up; she’s even tried dating again, though her relationship with her now-ex crashed and burned even harder than her first. She’s happy with her new life. She’s content. But she wasn’t expecting the flare of confusing emotions that came swirling back when she found out her high school sweetheart was back in town. And back to stay. 


Jax made a mistake. He lost the love of his life when he broke up with Avery four years ago. He told himself they could still be friends; that he would work up the bravery to call her once everything calmed down because he couldn’t handle losing her forever. But he hadn’t done it. Now, he’s determined to get her back. He knows he can’t have Avery in all the ways he wants, but he’ll settle for just being her friend, if she doesn’t hate him too much after how he left her.

 

  ðŸŒ·

 Sometimes, you just need a romance book, with cozy vibes – giving you all the feelings. Then Until Forever was that book. I love reading books that are just romance, without the spice. I don’t mind the spice, but sometimes I just want to read about their connection, their interactions. I think that was one of the reasons that I loved Avery and Jax’s story; a sweet story about two people finding their way back to one another. Although I understood why Avery did it; I didn’t agree with some of the choices that she made. 


It was clear how much Jax cared about Avery, and throughout the book, I hoped she would see that. I loved how he tried to take care of her and agreed to be her friend, even though I knew he wanted so much more. I like the way that Mase portrayed their relationship; how their friendship grew. I think everyone knew those two belonged together before they did. The book started a little slow for me, but it picked up fast, and then I felt myself flying through the pages. 


One of my favorite aspects of the book is the way that I could relate to the characters in the book. I didn’t feel as if I was reading a book, I felt as if I was catching up with old friends. To me, those characters were real. Then Until Forever was my first book by the author. I’m curious about the others, and I’m eager about next book in series as well.

The Witch Fix

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
  Thank you to author, Kennedy Rhodes and Rattle The Stars PR, for letting me be part of ARC Team! 
 
 
 
 

Magick always has consequences. Some are worth it.

 
The growing pile of burnt cauldrons in Eva Sutton’s backyard says it all—she’s not the perfect witch. But her coven’s magick is fading, and now is her moment to step up. 


Out of desperation, Eva casts a spell from a mysterious grimoire and ends up with a shockingly attractive, glasses-wearing demon in her living room. 


Sorren doesn’t have time for this. He has to get back to his draining, uninspiring job. Hell won’t run itself, after all.
But Eva doesn’t know how to send Sorren back, and she hasn’t decided yet if the demon working remotely from her gardening shed is another problem or the solution her collapsing coven needs. 


As they piece it all together, Sorren and Eva begin to realize that sometimes it takes an accident to find the life they were meant to live. 


As for Eva? She’ll figure it all out as soon as she finds her key.

 ðŸŒ·

 
This was such cute read! 


I had so much fun reading this story! When I came across The Witch Fix, saw the cover, and read the blurb, I knew I had to check this book out. I’m so glad that I did! I liked the way that Kennedy incorporated sweet and spicy scenes. I don’t mind spicy ones, but I prefer a combination of the two, and that is what this book has. Although I did feel the first spicy scene was a little rushed. I adored Eva and Sorren; their relationship had me smiling on multiple occasions. It was so bittersweet, the way that the two of them bonded. I’ve read books about demons before, but I had never read about a demon like Sorren. He’s the type of guy that every girl knows she shouldn’t want, but she does. 


The Witch Fix gave me Gilmore Girls and Halloweentown vibes. I loved the friendship between Eva and Riley, and the way that they were always there for each other. In general, I loved the cozy small time, there was part of me that wanted to move there while I was reading. I was a little anxious of what would happen with Eva and Sorren if they did figure out how to send him back. I loved the cozy feel of this book, especially since I have been reading more serious books lately. There was a part of me that wished that this was a series, but that’s because I didn’t want to say goodbye to any of the characters. The Witch Fix was the first book I have read by Kennedy Rhodes, but I have heard of her and am excited to check out the others!

Ward D

 

 
 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Medical student Amy Brenner is spending the night on a locked psychiatric ward. 


Amy has been dreading her evening working on Ward D, the hospital’s inpatient mental health unit. There are very specific reasons why she never wanted to do this required overnight rotation. Reasons nobody can ever find out. 


And as the hours tick by, Amy grows increasingly convinced something terrible is happening within these tightly secured walls. When patients and staff start to vanish without a trace, it becomes clear that everyone on the unit is in grave danger. 


Amy’s worst nightmare was spending the night on Ward D.

 
And now she might never escape.

 ðŸŒ·

 
I shouldn't be surprised by how intense this book is, considering it's not the first book I've read by Freida McFadden. Once again, Freida took me by surprise. Ward D was such an intense book. I did feel that the first few chapters were slow. However, once Amy arrived on Ward D, everything started spinning out of control, and I found myself glued to the pages of the book. I was so invested in the story; I didn’t even realize how much time had passed. I needed to find out what had happened to Amy next, and, of course, I wondered who in Ward D was responsible for everything that had happened. 


I enjoyed the way Freida transitioned between the present and the past, and the way she intertwined the story. I didn’t trust Jade, especially after the way she acted the last time Amy visited her. I just had a bad feeling about her. Honestly, I was surprised that Amy had been friends with her for as long as she had, considering how she acted. I do understand why, though. There were quite a few suspicious characters in this book, and just when I thought I figured it out, another twist had me reconsidering everything. 


I've seen mixed reviews about Ward D, but I love reading any book that features mental health representation. Every chapter had something happening, and it had me on the edge of my seat. I found myself thinking about it after I turned the last page, and even recommending it to my friends. I feel like Ward D was one of her most intense books. Highly recommend it.

Undercover Light(Lights,Love,Vegas,#1)

 

 
  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
  4.5★
 Thank you to author,Yuliana Zaikman for providing with eARC.  All opinions are my own.  
 
 


Nanny turned amateur sleuth. 


Ukrainian hotel mogul turned single dad. 


And a relentless detective who might tear them apart. 


Aurora Sinclair is a failure. At least that’s what she thinks when she’s not selected for a crucial internship, and her dream of becoming a school psychologist hits a dead end. Hoping for a change, Aurora decides to take a stopgap nanny job for a boy whose mother recently died under suspicious circumstances. When she meets his father, Sergei Chernov, she’s taken aback by his unapproachable demeanor. However, as they spend time together, Aurora discovers the soft, hopeful layer beneath, making it hard to keep boundaries from blurring. 


Sergei is a guarded Ukrainian mogul opening a luxury hotel in Las Vegas. Following his wife’s tragic death, Sergei is determined to be the best papa he can be. When Aurora enters his home, she ignites an unexpected attraction that threatens to complicate his already messy world. While navigating these feelings, he must protect his loved ones from the shadows of his past. 


But when Daniel Custode, an overzealous detective, finds out that Aurora is working for Sergei, he pressures her into joining his investigation to prove Sergei is responsible for his wife’s death. As Daniel’s demands escalate, Aurora grows increasingly determined to clear Sergei’s name. She must decide whether to betray the man she’s falling for—or come clean and risk losing him.

 

 ðŸŒ·

Where do I begin? It was a joy to read this book. Undercover Light had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. Every chapter had me craving for more; wondering what was going to happen next between Aurora and Sergei, and what Aurora and Daniel would uncover next. Daniel, I wasn’t so sure about him, and even though I understood why he did it, he seemed so sure that it was Sergei who was responsible for his wife’s death; it seemed like he didn’t even want to consider that it could have been someone else. I was curious to see what he would uncover. Like Daniel and Aurora, I was curious to find out what happened to Alessia. 


Undercover Light had me going through a range of emotions as I read. I adored the bond between Aurora and Misha; it was as if she were meant to be his nanny. I think it was because of her that Sergei started spending more time with his son. I could tell when Sergei fell for Aurora, even if he tried to deny his feelings. The way that he looked out for her. The way he seemed to want to spend time with her and Misha. I knew that it was only a matter of time until they fell for each other. Plus, Aurora was trying to learn Russian. I'm Russian, and it's a hard language to learn. I was rooting for them throughout the book, but I was also afraid of what might happen if Sergei found out what Aurora was doing. 


I was born in Ukraine, so I loved that one of main characters was Ukrainian, and he has my brother’s name. I have read few romance mystery books, but this one; it was unique and that was one of my favorite aspects of the book. I loved how the story kept you on guessing. The last few chapters of the book, I couldn’t put down, and probably stayed up later than should have, to finish it. I’m so excited that there is going be a second book! A beautifully written debut novel.

Heart Breaker(Deep Cove Millionaires Club,#3)

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 Thank you to the author,Lily Miller for letting me be part of ARC Team! 
 
 
 
 

I didn’t plan on getting into a fake marriage with a millionaire pilot I barely know, but that’s exactly what happened when I said “I do” to Wes Winters, Deep Cove’s broodiest bachelor. 


So how did I get here? It’s all thanks to a looming scandal, a pushy publicist, and a deal too tempting to turn down. When a long-buried controversy from Wes’s past resurfaced and threatened to destroy the reputation he spent years rebuilding, suddenly I became the perfect solution. It turns out a sunshine wedding planner with a spotless track record is exactly what his image needs. 


The plan is simple: fake the perfect marriage and play happy newlyweds for one year, long enough for the tabloids to lose interest. Thanks to our carefully arranged marriage, Wes will get the squeaky-clean image he desperately needs, and I’ll get my dad’s medical bills taken care of. 


Simple enough, right? 


Except pretending to be Wes’s wife is a lot harder than I expected. He’s guarded, frustrating, and impossible to read. One minute he’ll barely speak to me, and the next he’s looking at me with those deep, charcoal eyes like he wants to devour me. Good thing none of this is real. At least, that’s what I keep telling myself as my ruggedly handsome new husband kisses me in public, calls me his wife like he means it, and slowly starts showing me pieces of himself no one else gets to see. 


Somewhere between sharing a home, pretending to be in love, and a chemistry so intense it’s impossible to ignore, the lines between fake and real blur beyond recognition and falling for my husband starts to feel inevitable.

 ðŸŒ·

 
From the moment that I started reading this book, I knew that I was in for a wild ride. Before I even realized it, I finished half of the book. I’ve recently read the first book, Deal Breaker, and I loved it. However, this book…so many emotions, and it didn’t take me long to fall in love with Lottie and Wes. The connection between those two had me smiling. Although it started as a fake marriage, Wes tried to take care of Lottie and made sure she got everything she needed. There was nothing fake about that. 


One of my favorite aspects of Heart Breaker was the way that the growth in the relationship between Wes and Lottie was portrayed. It wasn’t just physical, but emotional too. I liked the way they slowly started to open to each other. The way that Wes took Lottie’s feelings into account reassured me of how much he cared about her and that she didn’t have to deal with it alone; it melted my heart. Their chemistry in general was so heartfelt. I was waiting for Lottie to see how much Wes cared about her and wanted to be with her. The scenes between those two were connected; I couldn’t get enough. I’m still thinking about it. 


Another favorite aspect in Heart Breaker that both had me smiling and broke my heart was the relationship between Lottie and her parents, especially her father. I loved the bond that those two had, and how Lottie was willing to do anything to help her father. I lost my grandmother 4 months ago, and reading this, it had me thinking about her, and I felt as if I could relate to how Lottie was feeling. I’m so glad that I discovered this author. Now, I’m going to go backward and read the second book. The way that this book ended, I’m eager for Noah’s story to come out.

Made Better Together(Battles In Love,#4)

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ 
 
  Thank you to the author,Kylie Skye, and Kylie Skye's MVP for eArc. All opinions are my own
 
  


EDEN

 
It’s been a year since I last saw him, when we shared a Fourth of July I’ll never forget. Only this time, he’s moved to my city for good. I’m overwhelmed by senior year pre-med reqs and my soccer goals, but still—I’m curious if our undeniable connection can turn into something real… 


The only problem? His new job doesn’t allow him to date clients. And guess which firm I hired to help manage my soccer opportunities?

 
CONNOR

 
I’ve been gifted a fresh start in Orlando, but I can’t seem to get things right—either with my post-college career or with her. Because as soon as we live in the same city, it turns out she’s off-limits. The fact that I’m stuck with this office job, after not being invited to any NFL rookie minicamps, only adds salt to the wound. 


With her so close now, there’s no way I can stand by and do nothing. Maybe we just keep things secret? Who would get hurt, anyway?

 ðŸŒ·

 
Battles In Love has become one of my favorite sports romance series. It shouldn’t be surprising how much I loved Made Better Together, but once again, Kylie found another way to make me fall in love with the characters. I loved Eden and Connor together and couldn’t help but fall in love with them. It seemed that the universe seemed to push another challenge in their way, just when they thought that they could make it work. What I loved about the two of them was that they didn’t stop. However, I was worried about them keeping a secret; if anyone found out, I knew it could blow up. I hoped that they wouldn’t have to keep it secret for long. 


I couldn’t get enough of how Eden and Connor were supporting each other; of their dreams. Those two were always there, cheering each other on, and not once did they ask each other to give up their dreams for each other. The growth between Connor and Eden as a couple and individually was amazing. It was as if I were watching my friends achieve their dreams. I can’t even remember the number of times I smiled while reading the scenes between the two of them. There were days I read for hours, without realizing how much time had passed. I hoped that they would find a way to be together; without hiding. 


I can’t get the story out of my mind. I was lucky enough to read all four books as ARCs, and I loved them all. I think that’s one of the reasons that I loved the ending; it had me smiling so much. In general, I had so much fun reading this series, and part of me is sad that it’s over. However, I’m excited for Kylie’s next series! I also loved the way that Kylie portrayed family dynamics in this book. Made Better Together was so heartfelt, and so real.

Together Is Where We Belong(Courtright Ranch,#2)

 

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
  Thank you to the author,Harper Faith and The Author Agency for providing me with E-ARC, in exchange for honest review.   
 
 


At eighteen, I left Haven Valley with Leo Courtright’s final words ringing in my ears. 


I hate you. 


I swore I’d never come back to the small town—or the boy—I’d left behind. But when the manstalking me gets too close, I run to the only place that’s ever felt safe. 


Home. 


Coming back meant seeing the blue-eyed boy who was once my entire world. Only Leo isn’t a boy anymore. He’s colder. Harder. And he still looks at me like I wrecked his life. Returning home also means revealing the secret I’ve kept for eight years. 


He has Leo’s eyes. 


His inquisitive nature. 


And he can’t wait to meet his dad. 


When Leo shows up at my front door to welcome his new neighbor, the second his gaze lands on the little boy behind me, everything changes. 


The man who swore he hates me is suddenly everywhere—fixing broken locks, watching over us, asking questions I can’t answer without risking the fragile life I built to protect my son. 


The more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to deny what’s always been between us.
Because some first loves stay with you forever. 


Some people never stop feeling like home. 


And maybe, after everything we lost, together is where we belong. 


If the past—and the danger chasing us—doesn’t destroy us first.

 ðŸŒ·

 
Such a heartwarming but heartbreaking story about first love, family, and a second chance. I’m still swooning over Carolina and Leo. 


I didn’t know what to expect from this story, since I haven’t read anything by this author. It was the cover, the title, and the blurb that caught my attention. The blurb is what caught my attention most of all; it sounded moving yet suspenseful. The moment I started reading Together Is Where We Belong, I knew I was in trouble, and I was right. I read it in a day because just when I thought I could put it down, something happened that kept me reading for a few more hours. Leo and Carolina’s story isn’t one you will be able to forget. You can feel the chemistry between the two of them from the moment they reunite. Even though Leo tries to fight it, I can tell how much he cares about her. 


I adored the instant bond that Leo had with his son, Luke. I couldn’t help but love Luke; his energy was so addictive, and I loved how he accepted Leo, even if he wasn’t in his life for a while. He was such a joy to read about. The three of them were a family, and even though Leo tried to stay clear, they still acted like one. I was rooting for them all through the book. I’m glad that Carolina came back and that Luke protected her once he found out about her stalker. I was scared for her and hoped the stalker wouldn’t find her. 


Family was an important aspect in this book. Despite what happened in the past, I loved how Courtright family accepted Luke, and how they tried protecting the two of them. I was smiling at the way that they all came together. Even though I finished the book this morning, I still cannot get it out of my head. Everything in this book, including the suspense, was portrayed in such depth and filled with so much emotion. Now, I must go back and check out the first book in the series. Highly recommended.

Trying Not To Need You(Moran Sisters,#2)

 

 
 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 4.5★ 
Thank you to author,Kaylee Ryan for letting me be part of her ARC Team! 
 


Baylor

 
I thought I was living my happily ever after. 


But after five years in New York, building my life around a man who stopped choosing me, I realized our future was nothing more than a dream. 


So I walked away. 


From the city. From him. From the family I thought we’d build together. ,br> Now I’m back in Magnolia Ridge with my sisters, trying to figure out who I am without the life I planned. 


I didn’t come home looking for love. 


But somehow, love has been waiting for me all along.

 
Macklin

 
I’ve loved Baylor Moran for years. 


The timing was always wrong. Until now. 


She’s back in Magnolia Ridge with a bruised heart and walls higher than ever. But that's okay. I'll be here when they’re ready to come down. 


Baylor can take all the time she needs. 


I’m not going anywhere. 


And while she’s trying not to need me, I’ll keep loving her until she realizes she’s not falling apart anymore.
She’s finally falling—straight into the future we were always meant to have. 

  ðŸŒ·

 
I have no words. This book blew me away, and I am still going through a range of emotions. I loved the first book, Trying Not To Kiss You, but this one is my favorite- at least for right now. I read Trying Not To Need You in one day; I couldn’t stop, I didn’t want to stop because I was so invested in Baylor and Macklin’s story. Macklin is the type of guy that every girl dreams about – if only every guy treated their girl the way that he did. I think I fell in love with Macklin myself. I adored the way he treated Baylor and the way he tried to prove to her how much she meant to him. However, I did feel like he came on a little too strong at the beginning. 


I liked the way that Kaylee transitioned Baylor and Mackin’s relationship from friendship to romance; it was so bittersweet. I’m still smiling just thinking about it. I loved that Mackin wasn’t pushing her into relationship but also showing her different ways that he cares about her. You can’t help but swoon over Mackling; who doesn’t want a man who cooks your favorite food for you, and dances with you? I couldn’t get enough of the two of them, and hoped that Baylor will see that Macklin is the guy for her. 


Found family was another one of my favorite aspects in this book. I adore the close relationship that the Moran sisters have with each other. I’m curious to see which Moran sister the next book will be about. Trying Not To Need You is not a book that you want to miss.

Run Back Home(Golden City,#4)

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 Thank you to author,Cassandra Moll for letting me be part of  ARC Team! 
 
 
   09.23.26   


Lenora O'Reilly has many names—Nora, Lenny, Len—but only one major regret: choosing small-town life over true love. 


When high school ended, Lenny couldn’t bring herself to leave the safety, security, and familiarity of Mage Hollow—even if it meant walking away from the plans she’d built with her MLB-bound boyfriend. 


But what she didn’t realize was that the one thing she truly needed would disappear the moment she made that choice—
Him. 


Now Lenny spends her life as a travel nurse—always moving, always leaving—because the place she once called home has never felt like home again.

 
Jace Holloway was always meant for the big leagues—talented, driven, and able to anticipate the last minute bounce or unpredictable hop. And the pit-stop his family made in Mage Hollow only proved that nothing could derail his dreams.
But there was one curveball Jace never saw coming— 


Lenny staying after he left. 


Now, six years later, although he's thriving in Golden City with his family back together, he's still living with regrets of his own. 


And without the one person he never stopped missing. 


When Lenny’s newest nursing assignment lands her in the same city where Jace now starts at shortstop for the Gators, neither of them expects to keep bumping into each other. 


But they should have known—the universe has always had a way of putting them together.

 
Now they’re learning that you can’t outrun your problems. 


And that scoring big almost always means heading home.

 

 ðŸŒ·

I loved every single moment of this book; the characters, the story, the setting. I’m so glad that I got the chance to read this book. I have a feeling this will be the book I re-read in the future. The Run Back Home is the second book I've read by Cassandra and, so far, my favorite. I haven't read the first two books in the Golden City series, and now that I've read the last one, I'm going to check out the others. One of my favorites is the found-family aspect; it's so heartwarming to see how everyone looks out for one another. That's why it's impossible to have a favorite character; you can't help but fall in love with all of them. It reminds me so much of my best friends, who became like family to me. 


Lenny and Jace : You can see that those two belong together from the start. Their story was both heartbreaking and heartwarming, and I found myself reading late into the night because I needed to know what happened. I could tell that Lenny’s feelings for Jace never faded; just the way that she acted around him. I loved the way that Cassandra portrayed their relationship; it was emotional at times, but also realistic. I was so invested in their relationship, rooting for them all the way through. 


I love the way Cassandra portrayed deaf awareness and Vienna’s journey to get the implant. I can’t even begin to imagine how she must feel, but the descriptions were phenomenal, so I felt as if I could. I have a deaf friend, so I loved that it was featured in this book. I also loved the relationship that Jace had with his sister, and Lenny too; it had me smiling on multiple occasions. In general; if I could give this book more than five stars, I would. Such a beautiful, inspirational book.

Falling For The Enemy(Hawthrone Brothers,#2)

 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 4.5★
 Thank you to the author,Lydia Michaels and LMPR for eARC. All opinions are my own.
 
 
      09.22.26     
 

Soren Hawthorne is arrogant, brooding, and used to getting everything he wants—including ruthless control of his family's empire. The last thing this grumpy alpha billionaire needs is any lip from Jocelyn Collins, the sharp-tongued, beautiful, chaotic, Viking smut author with an evil chihuahua that hates his guts. 


Jocelyn has spent her whole life being too much. Too loud, too messy, too wild for a small-town that likes its love stories neat and tidy. She writes happily-ever-afters for a living but never believed she'd get one of her own. Especially not with the infuriating, insufferable, impossibly gorgeous man she's been at war with since the third grade. 


But twenty years of slow-burn tension has to break somewhere. And once Soren realizes the woman he wants has been right there all along, his possessive nature kicks.

 ðŸŒ·

 
I've been curious about the Hawthorne brothers ever since I read The Holiday Clause last December. I loved Greyson and Wren’s story, but I loved Soren and Jocelyn’s story even more. There was something about those two that had me rooting for them. Although they claimed they hated each other, I could tell there was more to it. Those two had such chemistry; the ones that they seemed to deny. I hoped that they would figure out that what two of them had was more than sex. I do believe that Soren fell for Jocelyn first, the way he wanted to take care of her, and the jealousy. I just hoped he wouldn’t do something stupid to mess up the relationship. 


Soren…I had my doubts about him when I started reading the book. The things he did and said sometimes frustrated me. However, I could tell how much he cared about Jocelyn, even if it took him some time to realize it. One of my favorite things about Lydia’s books is the way that she portrays the characters and their emotions. I felt every emotion that Soren and Jocelyn had. I felt their anger, frustration, love, and doubt. I loved this town in winter during Holiday Clause, and I loved it during the fall. Everything about it made me wish that it was real, so I could go there and escape for a while.


O
nce again, it warmed my heart how the town came together. The way Lydia portrayed the relationship between Soren and Jocelyn was phenomenal; you could see their growth. I also loved the banter between them and found myself laughing out loud at some of it. I didn’t want this story to end, and I'm hoping that they make an appearance in the next book. I’m excited to see what’s in store for Logan.

Yours Trully,Fall(Season Sisters,#2)

 

 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
 
 Thank you to the author,S.L Scott and The Author Agency for providing me with E-ARC, in exchange for honest review.   
  


There are worse things than being stuck alone in a cabin with a hot as sin firefighter who’s good with his hands. A lot worse . . . This should be fun. 


Agreeing to help Brandon Culver recover from his injury seemed harmless enough. 


Sure, he’s a firefighter and Mountain Laurel Cove’s most eligible bachelor. But I’m too busy focusing on my nursing career to be distracted by a handsome face. 


Unfortunately, Brandon is a lot more than a great face. 


He’s steady. Dependable. He’s the kind of man who remembers the little things and shows up when it matters. His easy confidence is comforting. His quiet strength makes me feel safe. And the way he looks at me makes me question everything I thought I wanted. 


But I’m in his home to care for him, not fall for him. 


One tiny slip could ruin all the plans I’ve meticulously made for my life. Romance is a fool’s game and if I’m anything, I’m level-headed. Until his heated gaze and lingering touch threaten to turn the electricity between us into a five-alarm fire. 


If I’m not careful, I might be the one getting burned.

 ðŸŒ·

 
A charming, heartfelt small-town romance, with fall vibes. 


Yours Truly, Fall was the cozy romance that I love, and the one that I needed. I adored Brandon and Autumn; their banter, but also the way that they fell for each other. I know that Autumn had doubts about him, because of what happened in the past, but I thought that she should let the past go, give them a second chance. In the past couple of years, I fell in love with the small-town and second-chance romance trope. Yours Truly, Fall is the type of second-chance romance that I love. I couldn’t help but smile; the way that Autumn took care of Brandon and made sure that he was healing the way he should. I do believe there was more than one reason that she agreed to take care of Brandon. 


There were quite a few moments between Autumn and Brandon that had me smiling. I was rooting for the two of them from the start. I have read a few books that dealt with amnesia, but the way S.L. was interconnected with the rest of the story was unique. I wondered if Brandon would remember or if this would be their second chance to start over. I loved the Season sisters, and don’t you just love their names? I didn’t know it was a series until I started reading this one. Now I want to go back and read Summer’s book. Once again, I love the depth that S.L gave to the characters; partially Brandon and Autumn. She also always has a way to connect you with all the characters. There was part of me that didn’t want book to end, and I’m hoping that Autumn and Brandon will make appearance in the next book.

Neve Snowe doesn't need to settle down. She is already settled in her small harbor town, with a cozy beach cottage and part ownership in the family-run auto repair shop. She doesn't want a man, but she likes them. And she has one golden only sleep with flatlanders. You know, the guys who never intend to stay in Lovewell Landing, only use the coastal area for a brief holiday. 


And the last thing she desired was the unexpected . . . to be expecting. 


Tate Love spent his summers in Lovewell Landing as a teenager, but somehow he'd missed the beautiful girl who turned into a spunky woman, daring him to jump into the icy ocean one New Year's Eve, then slept with him near the town's sacred well, holding spell-binding waters. 


He never thought he'd see her again, until nine months later, a business prospect brings him back to the area.
Now, the man who longs to be tied down finds that one night planted the seed to everything he ever wanted, while he holds the pen that could sign away all she's ever loved.

I adored Neve and Tate’s story! It’s such a heartwarming story that had me overflowing with emotions. I had a feeling that I was going to enjoy this book. Since I discovered the author last year, there hasn’t been a book of hers that I haven’t loved. However, there is something about Fall In Love, that will have you falling in love with the characters, especially Neve and Tate. I loved the way Tate took care of Nave, despite the way she pushed him away. Although the two of them had a one-night stand, you could tell that they cared about each other more than that, even if Neve tried to deny her feelings. I loved how excited Tate was when he found out he was the father, and how willing he was to do anything to take care of Neve and the baby. 


I loved all the fall vibes in this book. All the descriptions in this book made me wish that Lovewell Landing was real, so I could go visit. It sounded just like my type of town. Fall In Love is the type of book that, once you pick it up, you will have trouble putting back down. I wanted to keep on reading this book, but because of school, I had to force myself to put it down. I did find myself thinking about the story and wondering what would happen next with Neve and Tate. I understood why Neve didn’t want to let him in, but I was hoping that she would see that he was here to stay and that he cared about her. I was rooting for them all the way through the book. 


This story will touch your heart in so many ways. The depth of the characters was phenomenal; especially for Neve and Tate. I fell in love with Tate from beginning; he’s the type of guy that every girl dreams about. Everything that he did for Neve; it melted my heart and had me smiling. I wish I could give this book more than five stars; it deserves every star. I’m excited for the next book in the series. Highly recommended for romance fans; especially small town, second chance tropes.
