This book cruised along nicely for about 70%, but then it all fell apart badly for me. There was just too much assuming happening, not enough actually asking and communicating. I can’t even say it’s miscommunication, because that would mean using words that are misinterpreted. To be honest, I should’ve just stopped reading but by that time I was almost done already. That’s the only reason I kept going, and I kept getting more and more annoyed by everything. I feel the book could have benefited from seeing Hayes’ POV, and not only through Tali’s eyes, but I don’t think that would have fixed the problems I had with it.

This was such a great companion novella to Spring Tide! I loved getting to know Paige and Frankie better. Their connection was so strong, so good! I loved how Frankie was with Max, even before he did anything about his attraction to Paige, and that kid is just too cute!

This was a beautiful story about love, taking chances, but most of all how it is to live with anxiety and a panic disorder. I love Mary, and I was so proud of her each time she made an effort to take steps outside of her comfort. Hayes is so great, giving her that final push without ever pushing. If only more people would be as understanding as he is!

I loved this book! It had so much heart, I felt every emotion coming from the page. The connection between Lydia and Erik was clear from the moment they met, but it still built slowly to something they just couldn’t ignore anymore. The Wilder family is so warm, so sweet, but luckily not afraid to say it like it is!

I loved this story! It was great to see both Ilya and Shane grow in their relationship, in their love. I really felt the struggle that Shane had coming to terms with who he was and who he loved. Great HFN, can’t wait to read their next book!

I loved this book so much! Murray and Kit made me swoon, laugh, angry, talk out loud while reading, everything! I was basically grinning and squealing the whole time while I was reading. They felt real to me, and I loved that their problems were understandable ones. Both their reactions made sense, even if wanted to talk some sense into them because obviously they were perfect together! I also loved Murray’s family and their friends and I can’t wait for the other guys to find their person!

I really liked this sweet novella! It was a bit over the top here and there but sometimes that’s just exactly what you need! I great palette cleanser if you want a quick read.

This was a great book! I was laughing from the first page, and I loved Zach and Poppy. Their chemistry was clear from the moment they met, but their situation was a complicated one. I did understand Poppy’s hesitancy, but I also felt it went on a little bit too long for the story. It was dragged out a little bit too much for me. But that other than that there was a lot of good in this one!

I loved this book! It’s a fun, quick read that had more layers than I was expecting. It’s about finding yourself, it’s about taking chances, it’s about grief, it’s about finding home. Definitely going to continue the series!

Steam: 4/5 (several steamy descriptive scenes)
