Lexi is home again and despite her best efforts, is having feelings. Feelings about life how she wanted it, feelings about her sister, her mom, this adventure, and scary as it is - feelings about Heath. I love the characters, the setting, the snarky banter. Another home run for this series!...more

These were wondBillie and Marcus were wonderful - small town, second chance, big families - all the story parts for an excellent Samantha Chase read.

A great addition to the series - cannot wait for the next!...more

There is so much that happens that I never saw coming. I loved Rafe and Emily's characters - there's a strong attraction that takes them a while to warm up to. They come from completely different worlds and there is plenty of self-doubt for both of them. I loved the complexities of both characters and how they work together. The best friends are also a huge part of the story and wowza - it's amazing.

OMG I loved Ted and Haley. I don't even know where to start - these two were a crack-up. Haley is an outgoing vet who is captivated by her hot, nerdy OMG I loved Ted and Haley. I don't even know where to start - these two were a crack-up. Haley is an outgoing vet who is captivated by her hot, nerdy neighbor. What she doesn't know is that the attraction is mutual - but the professor isn't sure what to do about it! Ted was hilarious (not intentionally of course). The misunderstanding between the two of them had me in stitches and it made it more fabulous when things got straightened out. These two were a great pair and I enjoyed their story.

Riley is one of the Jordan clan and has her eyes on Carter - but why won't heCarter is one half of the Miller twins who opened the pizzeria in Pride. Riley is one of the Jordan clan and has her eyes on Carter - but why won't he make a move? Carter grew up in a not-great home where he and Corey only had each other. He has himself convinced that he doesn't deserve anything good and that includes Riley. Can Riley and the rest of the Jordan clan convince Carter that not only is he good enough, but that he's part of the town and family for good? There are plenty of obstacles that crop up and we get to see Riley stand up for herself a time or two (you go girl!). Always a joy to see the town of Pride and the various members of the Jordan clan - I absolutely love seeing Allison and Iian as parents! This is a great addition the series and the next generation's stories. I can't wait for the next Pride story!
