4.5 stars. Steamy friends to lovers.

Jared and Hunter don’t want to jeopardise their long standing friendship and neither want to be tied down. After a hook up they realise they have amazing chemistry and their heat levels are off the charts leading to plenty of steamy times. These very likeable characters face some challenges and drama before they get their HEA.

This was an enjoyable read with a great cast of main and side characters to keep my interest. It flowed along at a good pace and finished with the hint of who will feature next. Something I’m looking forward to.

Refreshingly different.

This is the first time I’ve read this author and I was pleasantly surprised.
Nord wakes up ”sort of dead” in a very unusual place where he has the fortune of meeting Max. These two spirits then set about finding out who murdered Nord and why. Along the way they collect a wonderful cast of interesting side characters to add to their adventure. So this rag tag group of chosen family begin the task of bringing the person responsible to justice, with a hearty dose of humour on the side.
Through it all, Nord and Max manage to forge new friendships, fall in love and earn themselves a HEA.
This is a very enjoyable low angst, low heat/steam read which kept me smiling.

This a an enjoyable small town Christmas romance with two very likeable main characters set in the picture postcard town of Lighthouse Bay.
Jeff and Mike had a less then impressive meeting a year prior on the other side of the country. When they reconnect to organise a charity hockey tournament they are far from friendly to each other. The slow burn romance between them commences amongst the flurry of Christmas activities taking place in Lighthouse Bay. Characters from the previous book are involved in the storyline but this can easily be read as a standalone.
This is an easy to read, feel good slow burn romance with no angst, low heat and with just a touch of magic to help Jeff and Mike get their HEA.
I found this book to be a lovely way to escape for an afternoon.

Rating : 4.5 stars

Brilliant start to a new small town series

This is another well written book by this author, with complex, likeable characters and an engaging storyline.

Layton is new I town and has taken over his Uncles mechanic shop. Layton appears to be a “bad boy” biker.

Grayson is a single dad to his 5 year old son and is the owner of the local bakery. His husband left him when their son Harry’s first birthday.

The chemistry between Layton and Grayson sparks from their very first meeting. Although, they both have to work on some inner issues before that initial chemistry catches alight and then the heat factor turns up high.

I was engrossed with their journey from the very beginning and enjoyed watching them overcome their inner issues and some outside influences to finally get their HEA.

There is some minor angst, a cute 5 year old, nosy neighbours and some side characters that are very intriguing.
I highly recommend this book and look forward to more of the Hearts Of Snow Lake series.

Beautiful slow burn.

E.M Lindsey sure knows how to write a magnificent well crafted story that tugs at your heart. Their story telling ability combined with likeable relatable characters kept me fully engaged, turning the pages over unable to resist one more chapter to discover how the relationship between Ilan and Fredric was developing. It goes slowly, ever so slowly, exploring their insecurities, their years long friendship and their love.
There’s heartache as they navigate their redefined relationship and there is pure joy when their HEA is achieved.
This is one of the most heartfelt and beautiful love stories I have ever read.

I really enjoyed this well crafted engaging romance between best friends Patrick and Connor, who are both such loveable characters.
Patrick is a kind hearted, shy pastry chef and Connor is a fabulous, confident, “wonderfully exuberant” dance instructor. They’ve been the best of friends for 3 years when circumstances lead to a fake boyfriends weekend. Both want more but the fear of rejection has them overthinking and over complicating their relationship. With undeniable chemistry between them, steamy times soon start and heat levels rise. After following the advice from some of the interesting side characters, Patrick and Connor finally face their fears leading to a beautiful HEA.
Be prepared for lots of sweet, some feels, some fun, the search for the perfect lipstick and lots and lots of cake.

Lovely sweet romance.

This is an enjoyable romance between two very likeable characters, Andy and Chad. They initially don’t think much of each other but once they realise that their first impressions were incorrect they start to get to know each other better. After a couple of small bumps along the way they get their HEA and their dreams come true.
This book flows along at a nice even pace that keeps you engaged. There’s light and fluffy moments balanced out with a little bit of angst.
It’s a lighthearted feel good read that was an enjoyable way to fill in an afternoon.
