SUMMARY:

When their mother passed away, Evie Ross and her sister were each given a stack of letters, one to be opened every year on their birthday; letters their free-spirited mother hoped would inspire and guide them through adulthood. But although Evie has made a successful career, her desire for the stability and security she never had from her parents has meant she's never experienced the best life has to offer. But the discovery of more letters hidden in a safe-deposit box points to secrets her mother held close, and possibly a new way for Evie to think about her family, her heart and her dreams.

Summary:

Declan Forbes has always been the black sheep in the family, and he likes it that way. The less people liked him, the less drama he had to deal with. But the thing about being a loner was a person might find themselves...lonely.

Working for the FBI, Declan liked his world the way it was, even if something was missing. He'd also take a bullet in the gut before admitting anything was wrong. Something was off, though, because from the moment he meets Angela he's a goner. She's in the midst of the case he's been trying to crack for the past few years now, but he's not exactly sure how she's involved and she isn't talking. One thing Declan has learned in his years in the Marines and the FBI, though, is how to get a person to talk. It could even be...fun.

This is the final book in the four book series, Undercover Billionaires. It can be read as a stand-alone. Each brother has his own book.

Filled with awkward moments that will pull at your heart strings, and characters that you'll fall in love with. I guarantee you won't want to put this book down.

Watching Juliet interact with Cody, not knowing his difficulties in life was hard to read. I just wanted to reach in the book and shake her. My heart broke for everything he's been through, and his continued struggles on a daily basis.

Plenty of steamy romance, laughter and tears makes this my new favorite in the Odds-Are-Good series. I always know that if Katy Regnery is the author, I'll be able to dive right into the story, only to be sad that it's over too soon, and counting the days until the next book releases.

The Broken One by Ruth Cardello (Corisi Billionaires #1)

💙💙💙💙💙

The Broken One lives up to the title! This story will shatter your heart, then beautifully mend it. It's been a while since I've read a good, heart-warming story that punched me right in the chest and made me cry - but this one succeeded.

Heather Ellis didn't plan on becoming a mom, but tragic events lead to her adopting Ava and never looking back. The love and affection she feels for her is moving, especially the force of protectiveness whenever someone questions her parenting skills or priorities.

Sebastian Romano has suffered a tremendous loss, losing both his wife and their unborn child. The last thing he wants is to become involved in that world again, let alone put his heart on the line only to have it broken.

The author did such a fantastic job of making you feel Sebastian's pain, to the point where you wish you could reach through the book to just comfort him.

Ava is adorable in this story, and quite possibly the scene stealer every time she appears. Her love for the stuffed animals will melt your heart just as if they were real pets.

The only confusing part of the story to me, was the beginning and end...while I'm intrigued by Judy's story and where it might lead, I didn't understand how it tied into the main storyline.

Have the tissues ready and dive in to this wonderful tale of love and loss. It's one of my favorite reads this fall and I can't wait to see what else happens in this series. Such amazing characters, you'll want to read this one again and again.

 💧 Drama
💋 Romance

Summary:

Who'd have guessed it'd be returned by a drop-dead-sexy man with such sadness in his eyes that she had to reach out to him? To Ava, he's a hero. To Heather, he's a fantasy that puts at risk the happy life she's made for herself.

It's been five years since billionaire developer Sebastian Romano lost his wife and unborn child in a tragic accident. Now he's all business. No room for emotion. Until he stumbles across that damn stuffed wolf and the beautiful single mother looking for it. Is he ready to give love a second chance?

But there's more to Sebastian, his family, and his past than Heather knows. More than even Sebastian knows. Will the life they're building together be challenged when the truth is finally revealed?

Beauty and the Bayou by Erin Nicholas (Boys of the Bayou #3)

🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊

Beauty and the Bayou is a beautiful story of triumph after tragedy! Who knew a book could make duct tape and bubble wrap seem so appealing?!?

While everyone has kept their distance to give Sawyer time to grieve in his own way, Juliet appreciates his over-protective ways. Between the special gear and extra steps, she's too hard to resist and Sawyer finds himself drawn to someone that actually heeds his warnings.

Juliet thinks everything through before acting on it, and has a backup plan for every contingency. Being at a disadvantage in life, she's used to being left behind and not taken seriously, but the way Sawyer looks at her is entirely new.

Juliet and Sawyer are two perfectly flawed individuals, that both have traumatic experiences in their past that make them extremely cautious and aware.

As they slowly let their guards down to one another, perhaps they're the best chance at letting go of the past and living what could resemble a normal life, even if it's without each other in the end.

I've highly enjoyed the entire Boys of the Bayou series so far and never think anything can top them...well, I was proven wrong once again. Erin Nicholas is amazing at drawing you into the characters lives and making you feel their pain and sorrow. Sawyer has been the story I have been most anticipating since the first book and he has a piece of my heart forever!

Summary:
Sawyer Landry knows he's been beastly to be around for the past few months. But he can't seem to remember how to be fun-loving and friendly. Until he sees Juliet Dawson on his boat dock...and realizes that hip waders are, apparently, one of his turn-ons. But despite the beauty in the boots, the last thing he needs right now is a city girl in his way for the next two weeks.

But he's not really getting a vote. Juliet is determined that her little brother rebuild the dock he and his idiot friends smashed. She's quirky, klutzy, independent...and possibly an even bigger pessimist than Sawyer is. He's incredibly drawn to the cynical fish-out-of-water, who seems to be the one person who isn't intimidated by his growling.

The big, gruff boat captain is the first person in a long time to want to watch out for her and Juliet finds that hotter than his Grandma's jambalaya. Well, that and his sexy scar, his emotional baggage, and the sense of humor and fun that is buried deep.

But Sawyer doesn't need any more people to worry about long-term and the things that make him feel protective of Juliet aren't going to go away. So, this two-week adventure can't be anything more than a fling. With Juliet down on the bayou, there's an even bigger threat than alligators and hurricanes. There's the very good chance of someone ending up with a broken heart.

When she finds out that she was scammed, the broken cowboy who owns the home offers her a deal, room & board in exchange for working the farm.

SO much better than I was expecting, and it keeps you guessing with all of the twists and turns in the story. I originally got it through KU and immediately bought it when i finished reading, so it'd forever be in my Kindle library. I'll definitely be reading this one again in the near future!

Cloudy Mirrors by Shane Robert

This is the story of Michael, who grew up with everything handed to him, and a perfect life. He left home at the age of 18 wanting to rebel and discover himself, what he finds is a friend who involves him in the world of participating and dealing drugs.

Through this he meets Megan, a single Mom of two, and 12 years older than himself. Feelings grow deeper between them, each time they meet, but Megan doesn't want that kind of influence around her two sons. They both learn quickly that all actions have consequences, and when that starts affecting Megan and her family, Michael is forced to re-evaluate the choices he's making in his life.

*******

This was a great debut novel by an upcoming author, and I found myself captivated, finishing it in one sitting. Shane is brutally honest with the writing of what drugs can do to your life, and how it affects others. This is the first time I'm glad the story didn't have a HEA, and I think it actually made for a more realistic story. Gritty and heartfelt, this book will rip you apart in the most beautiful way. I'm looking forward to what they release next!
