Adorable and sweet small town romance.

How happy I am to be transported back to Chester Falls.
This is another solidly written book from Ana Ashley with a plot that flowed along seamlessly. With no sections that dragged, it kept me fully engaged from the start.
Wren and Tom are such likeable characters. Tom is adorable - out and proud and all things Coco, glitter and unicorns. His sayings had me laughing so much.
Wren is bisexual, in the closet and comes across as being closed off. A family emergency has him heading home after a few years away.
The connection between them is pretty much instant but of course there are obstacles to overcome. Once they jump these hurdles be prepared for the heat to turn up to high.
There’s also mention of a couple of side characters that pave the way for the next book which I’m really looking forward to.
This is a sweet, fun, feel good read with a teeny tiny bit of angst. If you love a small town romance with some feels, I highly recommend this book.
This can be read as a standalone.

Oh how I loved Archer and Julian. Such complex characters with so many layers and so perfect for each other. What started as fake soon turned real and along the way the chemistry between them gradually morphed into heated steamy moments. Their HEA didn’t come easily - cue some angst - but they did get there in the end.

This well crafted tale flows along perfectly and had me engaged from the very start. It also had me wiping tears from my eyes, smiling and then pumping my fist in the air when certain horrible side characters got taken down a peg or two for their insidious treatment towards Julian. As a counter balance there were also other nice, interesting side characters who were true friends and stood by Julian.

This book captured my heart and wouldn’t let go until the final page.

I love the sass, snark, witty banter, the sweet and the heat that Lily Morton brings to her characters and this wonderful selection of short stories includes all of that and more.
It really is like catching up with old friends and finding out what’s been going on I their lives. From marriage to babysitting to becoming fathers and more, we get another quick look at our favourite characters and what’s been happening in their relationships. There’s lots of laughter, lots of feels and lots of entertainment.
Please don’t read this unless you have read the books, there’s way too many spoilers! Read the books, fall in love with the characters and then treat yourself to this book of shorts - it’s the proverbial cherry on top.

This is a beautifully written, sweet romance with lots of laughs, banter, tender moments, steamy moments and absolutely no angst.
Merrick and Leo are both so loveable, likeable and adorable. They definitely have chemistry between them but take their time before getting to the high heat moments. The side characters are absolutely wonderful and add so much to the storyline.
I laughed a lot, my heart just melted in places and I smiled all the way through this book. It’s fun and fluff all wrapped up with a sweet romantic HEA. Highly recommended.

Wonderful cast of main and side characters in this well written, fast paced, action adventure into the world of hackers and assassins.
Throw in a lot of heat and steamy scenes and you’re left with a very engaging read. A great start to a new series where a different couple will be featured in the next t instalment.

Diesel and Parrish are so wonderful, I just wanted to squishy hug them both. Diesel is kind, overwhelmed, caring and absolutely adorable with his niece. Not to mention the love he has for his chickens.
Parrish mumbles silly sayings and loves talking out loud to himself and is so sweet that he gives apology casseroles. Their love and devotion to baby Marigold, and just having family time together, warms the heart.

I was hooked by this story from the very beginning and read it in one sitting. There’s lots of humour, a wonderful cast of main and side characters, sweet and steamy moments, the antics of the Licking Thicket locals and their love for a festival all combined with an enjoyable fake-to-real plot line made for a fantastic read.

I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for more in the series.
