The beginning felt a little slow but once I was away from the distractions of work, I honestly could not put this book down. I think I enjoyed this even more than Volume 1!

I had very high hopes for this one. There were things in the first one that I wasn't crazy about (just a personal preference, mind you) and I was hopeful that with character maturity, I'd enjoy this one more. Well, I did. I totally did! When I finished it, I immediately did two things, 1. Took a deep breath 2. Ran to Facebook and demanded that Cristin Harber give me volume 3. Um yeah, not my best moment ever. In a nutshell, Emma believes Grayson is dead and well, he isn't and all he wants to do is find Emma. I appreciated the depth of his love for her and how he stopped at NOTHING to get to her.
"You show up, and we end up in bed. What kind of girl does that make me?"
Easiest answer I've had all night. "It makes you mine."
The moments following their reunion were intense, heartbreaking and passionate. Gray has some serious issues to deal with where women are concerned and how thinks that all he does is let them down.
Learning about a daughter he didn't know he had was an intense moment for him and I ached for him. I ached for both of them, Emma, for working so hard by herself to create a life for her and her daughter Cally and for Grayson and the horrible things he had endured in his life and during his deployment.
If there were two people who deserved a break or two and an epic HEA, it's Grayson and Emma. I cannot wait for volume 3, Only for Us, which releases April 14th.
The Only series is sweet, passionate and completely addictive!!

Installment 2 of this series gives us Grayson back from the dead and he has one agenda. To get Emma back. With the realization of having a family and Emma working and going to college, Gray knows he has lot to make up for. Emma easily allows Gray back, but there are some obstacles they need to overcome. The inclusion of Emma's family gives a lot of background and reasons for Em not to give Gray that second chance, but is her love strong enough to ignore all the warnings? I am enjoying this series, it's addicting as we get to know the characters.Time to grab book 3 and continue the amazing narration by Xe Sands and Jeffrey Kafer. The truly bring the story to life. Xe's voice provides such love and compassion as you listen it is easy to become entrenched in the lives of Gray and Emma along with Jeffrey's vulnerability he is instilling in Gray. Loving it!

I can't wait for the next part
This time Emma and Grayson are separated by time and war, but there's a little girl now. Grayson doesn't know about Cally until he comes home to recover from his injuries. Emma still loves him even though he left her pregnant and worried about where he had been stationed. The next book can't come soon enough!

Only for Her is the second book in this novella series and it was a good read. Really I enjoyed it, but I am not entirely sure why. Everything moves very quickly and it is not really that realistic that everything would be solved so easily, but it was fun none the less. You should have read book one already! Some spoilers for that book are ahead!
Emma has always been in love with Greyson and in the last story they finally got together. Only Greyson leaves Emma at the end. This books picks up where that one left off, with Emma believing Greyson died in the military and now she is all alone with their daughter. Only he didn't die and he is now committed to doing anything necessary to win Emma back and make her fall in love with him again.
As I said things move quickly. It is not a long read so it is just bam bam bam everything works out. It was fun even if I don't actually think it would have happened like it did. As it is Emma has been working herself ragged trying to provide for her daughter and herself. She won't accept help from anyone, but now with Greyson back maybe things will change. I can't wait for the next chapter of their story!

The second installment of the Only series by Cristin Harber continues where we left of in Only For Him - Grayson is supposedly dead and Emma desperately tries to move on after everything that had happened. It's just not that easy. It never is.
I have to say that I enjoyed this a lot more than the first book! I remember that I liked the first one because of their cute relationship but that the ending really pissed me off ... but here? Everything makes sense and it's only half as bad as I imagined it, really.
In 3 years a lot can change and Emma has to experience that firsthand. I admired her for her strength and her will to do what is necessary and I think she did a pretty good job. She's still (well, kind of) the sweet, innocent and loving girl we met in the first installment but also different ... more mature and wiser. And Grayson? Well, he had a hard time too and he also changed a lot - to the better? I don't know yet. Everything that happened definitely affected him and I actually felt all his pain, sorrow and guilt. The author did a pretty good job at describing all of this. really I loved the author's ideas in this book and can't wait to find out how everything will turn out for the characters!
Since this is not really a book - more like a serial or novella - I knew it would be short and therefore a quick and easy read. I finished this within a day, so it's definitely something to read in between. I'm pretty excited for the next installment now because this one also ended with a cliffhanger ... at least not a terribly cruel one but I'm very, very curious! :)

ONLY FOR HER, book 2 in the Only novella series, jumps us to the present day lives of Grayson and Emma. Grayson, who's been serving in the Army, is seriously injured and brought back to the States to recuperate. His angel, Emma, is the only person that helps him heal. When he discovers that she's still in their hometown, not away at college as he thought, he finds himself running towards the only person that made him feel whole. Of course, Emma is devastated and elated that the man she both hates and loves is not dead, as everyone thought. But she's not sure what she should do, since she's hiding a big secret from this man that still owns the living piece of her heart he hadn't already broken.
I was so happy that Grayson made his way back to Emma. After everything he'd been through, to have him push forward and go after her not knowing what he was going to find made me love him more. My only wish was that Emma made him grovel for her forgiveness a little bit harder. He'd devastated her and all her plans were altered after he left. She not only has herself to worry about and I just wish she'd really made sure Grayson was going to be there, no matter what, before she let him back in.
I'm ready for ONLY FOR US, which should be coming soon. I want to see how Grayson's relationship with Emma's family repairs itself so they can move onto their HEA.
