What I enjoyed: * I really liked CC, she is totally a take charge type of person * Wade was awesome in Credence, but wonder if the romance would have ever happened in Denver * Secondary characters were great. I loved Wade's friends and family in the small town. * piglets!!!
What could have been better: * It seemed long for what it was. * (view spoiler)[I have issues with the hero being a man-whore. Yes he is famous, but he doesn't have to sleep with every female he meets. The turn around once he went home seems a bit unbelievable (hide spoiler)] ...more
What I enjoyed: * I loved both Callie and Garrett and thought they were great together * Their students and fellow teachers wSweet second chance romance
What I enjoyed: * I loved both Callie and Garrett and thought they were great together * Their students and fellow teachers were also interesting - so much drama in high school * Snoopy (view spoiler)[I was afraid the awful thing would eventually come when his old age was mentioned at the beginning and it did, but Garrett loved that dog and was his best friend for a long time. (hide spoiler)]
What could have been better: * I was surprised we never heard anything more about the quarterback Garrett cut from the team * (view spoiler)[It kind of sucked the female gave up her dream for them to stay together. Yes, I know Garrett offered but it is almost always the female who ends up compromising in these situations. (hide spoiler)]...more
Was heading for 4 stars until the last 15-20%. Surprisingly not that steamy and more about the day to day life.
What I enjoyed: * Cam. Her life was pretWas heading for 4 stars until the last 15-20%. Surprisingly not that steamy and more about the day to day life.
What I enjoyed: * Cam. Her life was pretty much wrecked by her deceased husband, but she kept trying to improve. Her relationship with her charge, Sam, was adorable. (view spoiler)[kind of surprised Mandy didn't move with Sam to the same town/house as Cal. And that he never seems to mention the rest of his siblings. (hide spoiler)] * Cam's best friend, Amber was awesome! * Cal is pretty silent through almost half the book it seems. But he shows how he feels with actions instead of words. * Epilogue
What could have been better: * (view spoiler)[The pregnancy even though he had a vasectomy plot? Really? So disappointing. These people had a realistic couples issue and that is how it gets solved? (hide spoiler)] ...more
Better than I was expecting after the shocking ending of book 1
What I enjoyed: * The twins are super adorable * Happy ending (view spoiler)[the proposalBetter than I was expecting after the shocking ending of book 1
What I enjoyed: * The twins are super adorable * Happy ending (view spoiler)[the proposal was great. I'm surprised how quickly they let Zach in considering he had slipped up and gotten drunk (hide spoiler)]
What could have been better: * I hate it when characters won't communicate to straighten out their issues. * (view spoiler)[I found it weird that Kacie let her own issues take over and practically ignored her best friend from Italy who was only visiting for a couple days. (hide spoiler)]...more
This series is super sweet. After ending the last one with an engagement, we see the wedding planning and wedding in this one.
What I enjoyed: * Brody iThis series is super sweet. After ending the last one with an engagement, we see the wedding planning and wedding in this one.
What I enjoyed: * Brody is too good to be true. He does everything to make things good for Kacie and the twins. I loved his solution to the castle problem. * The twins are adorable as always * The wedding was beautiful and sweet * Kacie's surprise was nice as well
What could have be better: * I'm not happy that (view spoiler)[Kacie's dad got money out of Brody. He deserves absolutely nothing, what a complete and total ahole (hide spoiler)]...more
This was headed for 4 stars until the last word which changed it from a HEA ending to a cliffhanger.
Kacie is a single mom of 5 year twins and has trouThis was headed for 4 stars until the last word which changed it from a HEA ending to a cliffhanger.
Kacie is a single mom of 5 year twins and has trouble trusting after her father and ex left her with no reason. She is helping her mom at the Cranberry Inn when a rainstorm brings hockey player, Brody to the door and they have instant chemistry.
Brody hasn't ever had much of a life outside of hockey, so a relationship is new to him. He mostly just has his team and his best friend/agent (whose wife is a total b*tch). So between his and Kacie's issues it is amazing they manage to go forward at all.
The characters are great and Kacie's twins are adorable. Even though I'm mad at the cliffhanger, I'll probably check out the next one....more
I liked this one better than the last, maybe because Logan just had a sad life. Dean doesn't have that problem, as he's lived a charmed life. But afteI liked this one better than the last, maybe because Logan just had a sad life. Dean doesn't have that problem, as he's lived a charmed life. But after seducing his best friend's girlfriend's bestie for some reason he doesn't seem to want other girls after basically being a man-whore for years (that was the most unrealistic part).
Allie is getting over her boyfriend and trying not to take him back when she has sex with Dean. It is her first casual encounter and she soon wants more (both sex and relationship).
I enjoyed watching their relationship grow. The humor was spot on and it was great to see more of Garrett and Hannah. There was one very sad issue (view spoiler)[Beau died and Dean did not handle it well (hide spoiler)]....more
I loved the first book in the series. This didn't have quite the same magic, but was still good.
Grace holds a mean grudge (view spoiler)[although RamI loved the first book in the series. This didn't have quite the same magic, but was still good.
Grace holds a mean grudge (view spoiler)[although Ramona seems like a lousy friend (hide spoiler)] and is a virgin freshman in college who babbles anytime she is around guys. She lucks into one of the hottest guys on campus mistaking her room for someone else's and they end up starting a weird friends with sorta benefits relationship.
Logan is jealous of his best friend's girlfriend and seems to be sick of just hooking up. This leads him to making some mistakes with Grace. But he has a good sense of himself and is happy to work to get her back. His biggest issue is what is waiting for him after graduation....more
This isn't my usual type of book, but I loved it! Third re-read and this is still amazing due to the great characters.
What I enjoyed: * Hannah had a hoThis isn't my usual type of book, but I loved it! Third re-read and this is still amazing due to the great characters.
What I enjoyed: * Hannah had a horrible thing happen to her years ago, but she is coping. Her crush leads her to make a deal with the hockey captain that leads to much more than she would have expected. * Garrett is not a dumb jock, but does need help with Ethics class and is willing to do anything to get Hannah to tutor him. I love his sense of humor, which comes through great even though he also has something dark in his past. * Their friends all seem to be awesome and somehow the music/drama group gets along with the jocks. * The whole tutor to friends to lovers thing worked great and they were willing to talk out their issues.
What could have been better: * (view spoiler)[I'm annoyed that the rapist didn't get punished and Hannah and her parents did with the crippling debt - although I do realize this is somewhat realistic, I still wanted him (and his parents) to get theirs. (hide spoiler)]...more

I liked all the characters and will need to go hunt up the first two books to learn more about the others. I also really liked the subplot with poor Brusier/Muffin and the whole playing nurse thing.
I really felt bad for Zach most of this book and while I understand what Grace saw was convincing, you'd think a little reflection (view spoiler)[would make it obvious he wouldn't have invited her into the bedroom without trying to hide the trollop if he knew about her. And the whole believing him at the end, but going silent and not bothering to mention it was a bit ridiculous. (hide spoiler)]...more
