Meh. Didn't hate. Didn't love it. Didn't really connect with the characters. 

3.5/5 ⭐️ 

these two were so cute with their awkwardness, usually its only one in the realtionship but they were both so awkward at times and introverted that you couldnt help but smile at them,

While it was a bit slow and drawn out at time, the connection was really sweet and you just knew when they felt things shift between them and they fell in love. 

while the couple was cute, there was just so much drawn out and seemed to be thrown in there just because that i found myself losing interest quite a bit.

Keats and Esme were such a fun couple to read about. They are neighbors who absolutely go at each other  and the tension between them is INSANE. Like its thick!!

The banter between this is amazing. You could just tell these two were hiding their true feelings and when they finally gave in to their attraction, it was incredible. Their relationship progressed really well and I liked that it wasn't rushed and they didn't automatically change the banter once they started to explore things between them.

In the first book, A Home In You, Darren is a bully, I mean he had his reason but ugh I wish he found a different outlet than bullying much sooner than he did. Even though this book is on the same timeline as A Home On You, this really showed him in a completely different light and I love that for him. 

Darren has sososo many layers to him. His home life was definitely not the best and he carried that anger around with him everywhere until he realizes he is turning into someone he doesnt want to be and changed his ways.

Christian appears new in town and he brings this light into Darren's life he never thought he could/would have. While I absolutely LOVE how much Darren changed the one thing that I really disliked was how he kinda always steamrolled over Christian and Christian went along with it for the most part. I wish that Christian spoke up a lot more and more often than he did about what he wanted and liked.

I love love lovvvvve a good redemption arc and I was so happy that Darren finally got his! Definitely make sure to read A Home In You first to get the whole story and how much growth Darren has. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

I read this when it first came out but i knew I just had to re-read it again before Finding Home releases on 10/25. I love Dillon and Cade so much!!

It was just Dillon and his mom for the longest time until his mom met someone and along with a new step dad came a new step brother. As time went on, Dillion realized that his feelings for his new step brother was more than what they should be. They both ended having feelings and over the time have to keep things a secret, not only because they are step brothers but also they live in a small town with extremely close minded people.

This book was a doozy, it takes you on an emotional rollercoaster for sure, my heart was broken along with them when they were torn apart. It was a hard fought battle to get to there HEA.

This was such a heavy story but absolutely beautiful at the same time. Micah is completely misunderstand but honestly he brought it on himself being as guarded as he was. He is portrayed as the most troubled brother but deep down he is so much more. He loves deeply and he is loyal, so loyal that his best friend took that loyalty for granted which lead Micah to lose everything at the time. 

Adeline has some pretty deep rooted trauma from her childhood from her father. She has tried to overcome it but finds her self in a relationship that reminds her of how her father treated her so she ran from her life in LA and ran back home to Boston. 

These two had their fair share of bumps along the way and Micah pushed her away a lot in the beginning and when they finally both gave in to what they wanted, secrets came out and they had to fight for each other. There was so much pain and hurt between these two but they helped each other heal from their past to be able to move on to their future.

Ash is needing a fresh start in life so he packs up pretty much everything he owns, moves across country and trades in his city life for country life. Once in Darling, he becomes the cook for the Darling ranch and as they say the rest is  history. I just love how everyone was so open to him and welcomed him to the ranch and family so easy!

Jackson lives and breathes for his rancher life, rancher not a cowboy according to him lol. Jackson tries so hard to keep his distance due to being hurt but Ash was so determined to crack Jackson's walls, he knew under all that grump was someone amazing and I'm so happy that Ash didn't give up on him.

Both guys were hurt in the past and had some things to overcome but once Ash broke through Jackson's tough exterior, Jackson was open and vulnerable with him and their relationship really grew. I really loved everyone in this book and Ash had me crackin up at some of the things that came out of his mouth.

This was a great start to a new series and I can't wait to see what else is next!

Riggs. That man is everything. The mouth on that man 😮‍💨 the things he did for Monroe, honestly anything that he did for the ones he cared about really showed the man that he was under that playboy persona. I really thought that Riggs would not be able to change his ways but this man, fell HARD and FAST and was the most perfect man for Monroe and all her sassiness. 

I instantly loved Monroe. She's fierce, she's sassy, she's loyal, she's a gives no f*cks type of girl but underneath it all she has some scars that she is trying to recover from caused by her parents. I loved how she gave Riggs all the crap but was also his biggest cheerleader in the best way. Watching them fall in love was such an amazing thing. 

C.L. out did herself yet again!! If you thought Tanner delivered on the spice and absolute filthiness, just wait until you meet Riggs. He is truly in a league of his own. I was sad to see the end of the Boston Blizzards but I cant wait for more in this series.

Andrew and Grant were thick as thieves when they were younger and their friendship turned to the romantic side at one point. Grant has a really really crappy home life and after the death of his mother, he becomes so angry and vows to get even for her death and targets his deadbeat dad. 

All this time, he tries to get the help from Andrew but Andrew is stedfast that he wont help, that is until Grant manipulates him into doing his bidding. It really broke my heart to see Andrew being taken advantage of the way he did by Grant. Andrew stood by his side no matter what and he betrayed him in the ultimate way. 

This jumps between the past and the present. Weaving together a tale of betrayal, forgiveness and second chances. I liked how Jeremy was there for Andrew to show him what a healthy relationship should be like.

I'm so happy to be back in this world. We've seen bits of both Paris and Mac in the first book but I love how much more we got on both of them and the struggles they have both faced in their life.

There is soooo much more to Paris than what was initially shown. He's smart, he's cunning and he will do absolutely anything he can to protect the innocent and even more for the ones he loves. Mac has so much on his shoulders beinfg a reaper and with his past it's hard to let people in but he can't help but let Paris in.

I really liked the progression of the premise of this whole world with Nature and Chaos and the war between them. It explained even more background of the rift and the history of certain aspects which was nice. I loved the found family and how everyone welcomed Paris and showed him how he deserves to be loved despite his relation to the main villain in the fist book.

I really can't wait for the next book. Both seem extremely tortured and hate each other at the moment so I can't wait to see how it all plays out.
