This story was so intertwined with the precious 3, in such a perfect way.

The story told over 3 decades, it was so thorough and well written. Everyone has such depth and growth….


Finally getting a taste of Bennett and ruby after all this time

Ahhh so full of angst. I knew where this was going when I startedX but it was exiting throughout.

Sweet Emmett, he trusted and fell for Nova so hard in the short amount of time.

Although impure motives, Nova fell for him too.

The Tin Gypsies may be over, but the brotherhood and relationships will live on.

It was ok, but didn’t quite hit the mark.

I liked Chloe, and Warren’s brother, and there was some funny one liners in there too.

I appreciate the different concept of this story - relatively original

This was so cute and fun to read!

Small town romance, fake dating, enemies to lovers.

Avery dreams of owning the restaurant she manages, but needs someone to co-sign. Emmett wants to run for mayor, but needs to show he’s a dependable guy instead of a single bachelor.
The two showcase their new “relationship” and quickly fall for each other despite their best efforts.

Book store Hannah has a proposition for surf shop Wyatt. She wants to come out of her shell more and be a “hot girl” (didn’t love this term but I got the idea. She said it too much and it got annoying)

These two opposites come together to teach Hannah to be brave, step out of her comfort zone, and complete her goals before she turns 30.
Wyatt is all about temporary so he doesn’t see things going anywhere with her. But why does he get jealous when she goes on dates with other men?

It’s kind of a sex coach turned relationship, but Hannah is a complex character that we all love.

Both MC’s were toxic AF, but we live for the drama.

I hoped she would end up with Tom, but I’m happy with the ending.

I was rooting for BJ but I knew Parks never deserved him. I rooted for him but didn’t want them to end up together.

A cute start, bouncing off the honey mountain series.

Nice we get to get a quick glimpse of the Thomas girls in this one!

Lila is back in her hometown for the summer, and working for her brother’s best friend’s restaurant. She ends up living in his guest house as well so they see a lot of each other.

Hugh starts to help Lila with her “snow day list” a bucket list for what she wants to accomplish this summer. Losing her v-card is one of them. She wants it to be with him, but he doesn’t want to cross that line. She’s his best friends sister, she’s leaving in two months, he can’t cross that line because he can’t go back to being just friends after this.

Forbidden love… can’t go wrong.

Read through so quick - couldn’t get enough. Super steamy.

This was amazing. I loved the Winston brothers so much, the group is so funny and they love their sister Ashley.

I love Cleatus so much I cannot express it.

The relationship started with blackmail, but became so true to heart.

Cleatus helps Jennifer “grow a backbone” but really he inspires her to be herself. And he falls in love with her song the way.

He is unusual, but means well and is the sweetest man.
