I'm not sure how long it was it but I can say I would have liked it to be a little longer. Toni works in a gallery she hates and doesn't do relationships so well but when she meets her friends brother Gavin things are starting to look up and change.
I liked that Toni and Gavin were attracted to one another right after meeting. You can tell they just had this spark but neither wanted to do anything about it because of Gavin's sister who happens to live with Toni. They agree to a four week fling while he is in NY and before you know they fall in love.
Mostly this couple had sex and ate a lot but I did wish they did more New York type things while Gavin was there. Gavin was super sweet and I loved his accent. I liked this story and their was no drama other then the simple thing of him leaving to return to Ireland. I did think it was sweet Gavin cared so much for Toni and wanted to make her happy. When he asked her to move to Ireland I was saying if she didn't I would! He definitely was a great catch!
This book was the first book I have read by this author and I am proud to say I hope to be reading more from her in the future. Her writing was well written and the story flowed nicely. The characters were likable and I did tear up towards the end. Overall I was happy with the ending and in the next book I hope we catch up with these two again to see what is going on. I can't see who the next sibling will be!

Kline delivers another sweet emotional story in the healing harts series. In this story we get Bailey and the hot police officer Chase.
Bailey is knowKline delivers another sweet emotional story in the healing harts series. In this story we get Bailey and the hot police officer Chase.
Bailey is known for being the wild child of the hart family. She has helped out her cousins when they needed her but now it's time for Bailey to do what she always wanted to do. Now that she has signed a contract with a manager it's time to tell her family she is moving to LA to live her dream but when Chase asks her to stay it's choice that only she can make and hopefully it's the right one.
Chase has been in love with Bailey forever but he knows that his best friend Justin won't like it. He's tried to stay away from her but with her departure date coming near he asks for two weeks to change her mind. All he hopes is that he doesn't get hurt in the process. Can he convince her that given them a shot it worth it or will getting close to her having her running to LA sooner.
This is actually one of my favorite books so far in this series. I loved Bailey and how devoted she was to her family but I loved how she wanted to branch out and start over on her own. She needed to have the freedom to make her own mistakes with judgement. Chase was so damn sweet when it comes to Bailey. They flirt, argue and laugh but he's so scared to admit to her how he feel.
Although these two have been friends for a long time and they both liked one another I loved that Kline didn't rush there romance or have them fall into bed right away. They took the time to feel one another out and try out kisses here and there to test the waters before jumping in.
In this healing harts book they both have a little healing to do. I think that's why they these made such a great match. I have to admit some parts I got a teary eyed over and that just made me like this book even more.
Of course this could be read as a standalone but it's more fun to start this series from the beginning to learn about each and every character and the journey they had to travel to find there HEA. This book is a must read for 2016!
Hopefully the sexy Drs book will next in this series :-)

I love how these stories were back to back and I definitely loved that I got more Damien.
Of course those who have been married know that no wedding day is perfect and I loved how Kenner showed that. From Nikki's mother showing up to people breaking into there hotel room on their honeymoon.
And of course in Jenner fashion you get lots of hot scenes and suspense added in the mix. Damien is still sweet but yet he still has this animalistic side that I just freaking loved!
If you loved this couple as much as I did you would really enjoy these :-)

I'm going to start off by saying wow! Long did an amazing job on this story and had a way with words. A charming hilarious treat that I just loved andI'm going to start off by saying wow! Long did an amazing job on this story and had a way with words. A charming hilarious treat that I just loved and couldn't get enough of!
This was my first book by Long and if all her stories are like this one man have I been missing out! This story is mainly about the characters. Britt is a waitress who ended up in Hellcat Canyon to start over from a bad marriage. JT is an actor looking for his next big break when his truck breaks down in this little town.
The story started off a little on the slow side and typical of what I was expecting. The waitress and the actor fall in love but Long brought more to this romance then just that. She brought humor, growth of her characters and the journey on finding who they are now and not what happened in the past.
I loved Britt and JT. They had excellent chemistry, lots of humor, but most of all they had the falling in love down to a t. Towards the end I got really teared up because I could feel Britts pain and the conflict she was going going through. Also the best man speech that JT gave was Omg swoon worthy drop your panties now type of speech!!! (Grins)
I was glad that there wasn't a secondary story involved because Britt and JT needed the whole book for just them. In just the short weeks that they knew each other the romance just took off and I loved every moment of it. And to top off this book they had a HEA that was more then special :-)
There are some characters I would like to see more of in the future so I hope Long will have some plans for them like Kayla, Casey and let's not forget Franco.
Take a trip to Hellcat Canyon on release day! You won't be disappointed!

I thought this book was cute and different. It's definitely unique from the romance books that are out there.

This book starts with Landon and Liz getting engaged. Liz thinks there sex is peas and carrots so she proposes a bet for them not to have sex before the wedding so their wedding night will be strawberries and cream. If Landon wins he gets to pick Utah for the honeymoon but if Liz wins she wants the Bahamas.
I think this book had a unique plot but I missed the whole getting to you stuff. I mean we are seeing this two already as a couple but I would have liked to really see them date and see what hurdles they went through to get to this point.
This story really did have some funny and entertaining things that went on which was a big plus but I didn't really get the happily ever after feel like when they were together. Don't get me wrong it's a cute book and it will have you in smiles but it just seemed like everything was just so easy for them.
I enjoyed the characters and I didn't feel as if I knew them. This book also lacked some suspense/ drama that I think would have only helped build their relationship more. They did however when they had a issue work together to solve it and they always were lovey Dovey even if they were angry which was a sweet touch.
I hope the next book in this series will bring a little more excitement to the storyline and the characters.

Normally I love Valentine's storylines but this story just fell flat for me. It starts off pretty interesting when Evangeline is escaping her abusive Normally I love Valentine's storylines but this story just fell flat for me. It starts off pretty interesting when Evangeline is escaping her abusive husband and is trying to move on with her life. She doesn't want to fall for another man that is until she sees the man who helped her when she was at her worst. It just so happens that he is her new neighbor. But the more Evangeline tries to stay away from Hunter the harder she starts to fall.
Being a police officer comes with seeing the good, bad and the ugly but one thing Hunter hasn't been able to forget since 6 months ago was the abused Evangeline. Hunter is shocked that she is moving in his building and is wondering if he can finally earn her trust and help her move on with her life which includes him.
I really liked Hunter. He became a better man then his father was. He was also sweet, protective and took it slow with Evangeline because she needed it. Hunter definitely showed her that she should be treasured. But there were times when I was reading that I felt Evangeline moved a little too fast with wanting to move on with Hunter. It almost felt like Valentine was leaving out a few things. Like one minute she is scared but she isn't so scared to go toe to toe with her ex? I'm not sure after being a victim of abuse if you ever really get over it but it seemed like Evangeline was rushing the timeline a bit.
Each of the characters were likable and the storyline had its ups and downs but this wasn't one of my favorite books in this series. Am I giving up on this series? Nope, Not just yet because I'm sure Valentine has some more amazing characters up her sleeve.
While I didn't totally fall in love with this book it doesn't mean I wouldn't recommend this series. It has wonderfully written heroes and HEA that keep you swooning.

What a great addition to the I team series. One of the things I loved about this book is that all the characters that I have grown to love are incorpoWhat a great addition to the I team series. One of the things I loved about this book is that all the characters that I have grown to love are incorporated in this suspense filled novella.
Almost each character had there own pov with the terrorist attack that was going on. Clare brought non stop action that kept me interested and wondering how the I team would get out of this intact.
As far as the romance you can see how much the couples love one another and even though some have been married for years and have kids that they still have a very active sex life.
I can't wait for more of this series and to see who will be next to not only join the I team but to fall in love.

I really wanted to like this book and get drawn into it but it had its moments when I questioned why I was reading it to begin with. So Jeremy and EliI really wanted to like this book and get drawn into it but it had its moments when I questioned why I was reading it to begin with. So Jeremy and Elizabeth both have issues not only in their pasts but it effects their future. They meet on a beach, share a kiss and go their separate ways.
They meet again in the same town? How weird right. So Elizabeth agrees to see him and take it slow because she knows Jeremy is hiding something but sometimes Jeremy acted like a real asshole and she took it. Just gave him passes and said she would rush him. Sorry Elizabeth but at times you should have been a bit stronger and called him out on the things he said and acted. At times I felt bad for both of them but it wasn't enough to make me route for them to make it work.
Both families I loved but you could already see what was going to happen before it happened and their wasn't any mystery to it. I guess I just wanted more of a love connection then the whole drama with her past, his past and let's not forget what drama unfolds in the future before they get to the happily ever after. This book was not what I expected at all.
