This was a sweet, allowing love to fix you story. Kasie is a single mom that is dealing with some issues from her past when one day she is taken aback by this stranger. Brody finds himself stranded during a rainstorm and the only place available is the Cranberry Inn. Kasie and Brody start a friendship that could be something more but does it? A very sweet journey of letting go and moving on. I really look forward to getting to the rest of the trilogy.

This was such a fun, sweet, and sexy read! Brody and Kacie's story was fantastic.
Brody Murphy is a hockey player that has spent his whole life dedicated to hockey. He literally sleeps, eats, and breathes hockey. Due to a horrible storm he finds himself at an Inn due to major road closures. The last thing he expects when he stops at the Inn is to meet Kacie and her twins, who have him soon thinking that perhaps there is more to life then hockey.
Kacie is a woman with a heart of gold that puts everything into those that she loves, though when it comes to men she isn't the most trusting due to her ex up and leaving her and her twin girls shortly after their first birthday. The last thing she expects is to find herself falling in love with a hockey player who goes against everything that she said that she wanted in the man that she would fall in love with again.
I absolutely loved Brody's character. He is the perfect male lead character that is just the right parts sexy and sweet. Not only does he adore Kacie, but he adores her twin girls, Lucy and Piper, like they are his own. He even calls them Twinkies, which I loved! Kacie's character was amazing as well. She was a strong independent character that doesn't give that up even after meeting Brody. I love that she picked up the pieces and is raising her twin girls, getting her college degree, and helping her mother out with her business.
If you are looking for a fun, sweet, and sexy read, this is definitely one that you should pick up! Plus, you cannot help but swoon and laugh at Brody Murphy!

It's more of a 3.5 for me. I would have given this a higher rating if it weren't that Kacie got under my skin so many times. It was just high because of Brody and the twins. But I'm definitely reading the second book since it's a cliffhanger.
Room for You is a great debut for Beth Ehemann. Effortlessly blending the perfect mix of sexy and sweet, Room for You tells the story of a young mother's journey to finding love and learning to trust another with her heart.
The story is told in dual point-of-view going back and forth between Kacie and Brody. Kacie is a twenty-four year old mother of twin girls, Piper & Lucy. After her girls' dad abandoned them, a heartbroken Kacie moved in with her mother, Sophia. Sophia runs a Bed and Breakfast called the "Cranberry Inn" in a small Michigan town. Let's just pause here for a second and admire the adorable name. *pauses* Okay moving on. Kacie would do anything for her little girls and she's puts them first above all else. Being a single mom and a nursing student, Kacie hasn't made any room for romance in her life until Brody Murphy comes along and turns her world upside down.
Brody Murphy *SWOON* is a famous hockey player. On his way back to Minneapolis, he runs into a patch of bad weather, which causes him and his dog, Diesel, to make a pit stop at the quaint and hospitable Cranberry Inn. He meets Kacie Jensen and his heart stops. Don't worry folks, this not a case of instalove or instalust. He was immediately transfixed by her and compelled by a desire to take care of her. He's so sweet, seriously. I LOVE HIM.
"Every movement she made was hypnotizing especially the way she crinkled her nose when she focused hard on cutting the cornbread into perfect little squares. She walked over to the large pot on the stove, lifted the wooden spoon to her lips and pulled them in close to blow on the steaming chilli. I almost lost my shit right there on the table, but I couldn't look away. I didn't even care if anyone was watching me watch her. This was the most tortuous accidental seduction I'd ever been a part of and I was enjoying every second of it."
What I love so much about Brody is his charisma and charm. Everyone that met him loved him and was automatically drawn to him. He was one of those types of people. Normally, this type of character would scream "too good too be true" and unrealistic but you learn that he has flaws. The mistakes he made in his past are behind him, he has learned from them and they made him the sweet, caring and wonderful man he was when he met Kacie. He was so alive his character jumped off the page.
Watching Brody and Kacie become a couple was really sweet. She watched the way Brody interacted with her kids and that slowly melted her heart (and mine). I mean, come on, he called her girls "Twinkies" and took them on mud puddling excursions. Most of all, he was on a mission to help Kacie let go, have fun, and let someone take care of her and the girls.
"I have fun!" I blurted out.
"Calm down, killer, I wasn't being mean. I think all the qualities you want in a guy are...nice, I just think you also need someone who will show you just how fun life can be. You know, make it exciting too. Don't you want that?"
This storyline could have easily been really cliche and cheesy, what with the hot guy staying getting stranded at an inn with a hot woman. But trust me, it wasn't. I loved it! I hate to use the word to cute to describe this story because it was so much more than that. It was romantic, sweet, sexy, heartwrenching, and unputdownable. But it really was cute from beginning to end.
Admittedly, I was a little apprehensive about reading this at first because I knew that there were kids in this book and that they were a main part of the story. I love children in real life, don't get me wrong. I am a little kid lover (Office reference anyone?) But I don't like kids in my books. Call me an evil reader, but that's just how I am. Some people won't read books with unhappily ever afters or cheating, I don't like books with kids, typically.
Here's the thing about Room for You: There were twin girls in this book from Kacey's previous relationship. As I said before, they were a big part of this story. AND I DIDN'T EVEN CARE. In fact, I loved the little girls. They added so much depth to both the story and characters. Maybe I'm going soft. Maybe my no kids stance is changing. Damn you, Ehemann! You're messing with my chi! If you're like me and shy away from books with kids, READ THIS BOOK! I absolutely adored the girls, especially seeing Brody interact with them and dote on them.
Ehemann's writing style was effortless. She didn't' try to force the story or the characters. She just let the characters control the story and I really admired that. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

I've said before that I love romance books with cowboys. I've found I really like them with athletes, too. The rich, famous guy who can have any woman he wants with a heart of gold. He's not straight-lace like the corporate types (probably my lease favorite hero type in romance), but rough around the edges and not afraid of getting dirty.
Sure, this was insta-love. Even more insta-love than most romance stories. But not in a creepy way. There's the long talk and getting to know each other stage, even though they are both instantly attracted to each other.
Kacie drove me nuts at times, like most heroines will do. Why are women in these books always so insecure and they never stand up for themselves in the beginning. Ugh! Thankfully, her friends helped her see the light a bit.
I absolutely did not like how this book ended, but it sure made me anxious to read the next one.
