Stumbling into Love (Fluke my Life #2) by Aurora Rose Reynolds @auroraroser

Add Stumbling Into Love  on GOODREADS Yes! Now that's an authentic ARR hero! 💞 💕 Wesley had that possessive, jealous yet sexy ott alpha personality that this author perfects. Even when what he's saying seems like "omg no he didn't.!" you still want to swoon and sigh happily in alpha heaven.  Then smack him. But no really I loved this installment. Mackenzie kinda took that hard to get to another level but Wesley balanced it out just right. I loved all the family characters. I hated with every cell Edward and Bonnie though. Call me judgemental I don't give a crap but they were evil and gross and I kinda wish several sexual diseases on them both. I really wanted Mackenzie to say adios forever. I mean gross, yuck, ok sorry rant over. Such an amazing romantic epilogue too. My safety peeps will love this one.! 💞  View all my reviews

The Bitterroot Inn by Devney Perry

This series has touched my heart and climbed right to the tip top of my favorites list. Devney Perry has a voice that resonates so deeply inside her vibrant characters. These people seem so real. Flawed human beings who just want to love and live. From the Coppersmith Farmhouse to this final installment at the Bitterroot Inn I found such simple beautiful and emotional romance. I can't pick favorites because each couple, each character, each child, each parent, each friend all settled deep into my soul as a special little piece of perfection. Hunter swept Macy away and I fell right along with her. The absolute mystery and terrifying suspenseful angst had me so nervous I could not put this book down. When the light bulb went off and all the pieces fell into place I had moments of sheer sadness, disappointment and in the end forgiveness and compassion. Not every choice that was made may have been handled in the right order but these people, Hunter, Macy and Coby had to go through everything just to find their happy. What a beautiful happy they found. I feel simply lucky, privileged and so glad I went along for the ride.

Most Likely to Score by Lauren Blakely @LaurenBlakely3

There's only one thing better than a Lauren Blakely book any day of the week. It's cracking open that first page on a cold winter weekend and having time to curl up and enjoy it cover to end. I spent the last couple of days in the most romantic friends to lovers story I've read in a long time. Jones and Jillian were absolutely adorable. Funny and just perfect for each other. I really loved how this author always keeps the focus on the love story that's building and low on drama that distracts and takes away. There's nothing but good things amongst the pages. Every character adds something special and when I find those sweet sappy tears of joy falling down my face I know I've found another favorite. Absolutely wonderful story for anyone who's got a romantic heart beating in their chest.

Challenge Read : Simply Love by Catherine Anderson

Stumbling blind into a book for me can be disaster or heaven. This read was inexplicably both. I am truly one who believes redemption is something real and possible for anybody who truly is sorrowful and ready to change. Now in my life I've needed redemption more than once. I've had to give and earn forgiveness more than once. But in my love of reading, I've tried to avoid certain elements that cause me to go back to dark times and dark feelings. I felt those emotions very deeply while reading this heart-rending story.   Luke was not a hero. He was not even close. What he was though was a man whose life caused him to take the darkest road and give up almost all of his humanity. Cassie was a light of pure innocent devotion and sunshine in a cavern of endless darkness for Luke. When a light like that shines on a man he can't stop hungering for more.    One lie, one choice, one deed and then a mountain of sins followed Luke around.  When the house of cards he built fell around him, Cassie's light led him through his own man made hell to find redemption. Every moment I hated him I learned to forgive and every moment I wanted to shake him I yearned to embrace that broken boy who was taught that love was evil. By the end of this well written, emotional tale I felt like maybe I was changed a bit to.   When she looked at him , she made him feel fine and brave and noble and kind. Not a whore's bastard , but a hero. And he liked the feeling      Maybe I can let a little redemption into my love of reading now and again to remind me to extend forgiveness and mercy in my everyday life.

The Outpost (Jamison Valley #4) by Devney Perry @DevneyPerry @InkSlingerPR @NazareaAndrews

This is the 3rd book by this author I've devoured in less than a week. That's a testament to how amazing and wonderful I found her writing. Her covers draw me in because they are not only beautiful but they seem to talk to me. You know going into the pages you're going to feel and you are going to experience everything the characters do. It's just some kind of vibe I get just looking at them. I think this gorgeous cover is my favorite so far.   In the Outpost , it's the story of Sabrina and Beau. These two have been thrown into a whirlwind of emotion and suspense.  Two people , strangers , thrown together with really no distractions. There's absolutely something beautiful about this scenario to me. I saw these two fall in love slowly and truly.  Beau was every bit the rugged mountain man. Brave, loyal and absolutely pure man.  I’d say good-bye to it all, just so I could say hello to her every morning for the rest of my life. ~Beau  Sabrina was that woman you'd like to shake a few times at the beginning, so stubborn yet deeply troubled inside. Beau knocked down every single wall she had between them and there was no way she could give him up.  This rugged, sexy mountain man was every one of my lost hopes and forgotten dreams come true. ~Sabrina   Throughout this amazing read I was given a cast of characters that I really wish I could spend a day with just hanging out. They felt so real and so vibrant. Things that we face in our lives can leave a spirit broken and fearful. Mostly we want to protect our hearts. That's what Sabrina did. But there's nothing like giving up all life's modern conveniences and going off the grid. Add in a sexy mountain man who is also the best friend you could have well Sabrina really stood no chance. I devoured this romantic and suspenseful read and I was sad when it ended. I love the epilogue in the future and felt a sentimental smile ease onto my face as I closed my kindle. I truly can't wait to see where this author takes us because I'm definitely going to he hanging on for the ride. I'd like to beg for some stories. I want Henry's story, Khloe's story and I hope she is with Paxon. But I'm now anxious about Hunter and Maisy.. I sure hope he gives her the love story she deserves. I really want a guy who's loyal from the start. Simply put I want more.
