3.56 AVERAGE


This book was ok. I honestly expected more from Meredith Wild. I just felt this story line had so much potential and it feel short . I do like the characters and storyline , I just wanted more from the book.

loved this book, loved the stoy line great

A sweet story about first love, second chances and a family secret that one particular father doesn't want to let go of. June Bell has been infatuated with Kase McCasker pretty much all her life, after a stolen kiss one night he disappears out of her life for 4 years. Now he’s back and he's ready to save his farm and stake his claim on June. The problem is, the huge family feud with their ‘fathers’. June has no idea why they hate each other, but when her father makes a deal to buy the McCasker farm, June has no choice but to be a pawn in their game. Wonderful writing and characters, with an addictively sweet storyline that had me hooked. Don't let the fact that I called this a sweet story fool you, yes it is sweet, very much so, but in the mix there is a whole lot of dirty, the chemistry between June and Kase is off the charts hot, what an explosive couple they are, and not always in the bedroom

“I wanted you, June. You can’t possibly know how much,” he says softly. “I had no idea you’d wait for me.”

June Bell has always had her heart set on being with Kase McCaster and after one great kiss she was convinced their time had come. However, when Kase leaves town without looking back June is heartbroken over what could have been. Throwing herself into the family business of running the hotel in their small town of Falls Edge she loses the opportunity to get close to anyone since Kase. When Kase returns 4 years later all of those feelings she has been trying to push down come right back to the surface. She never would have thought he had been having the same feelings about her after all this time.

This was the first taste I had with the Misadventure series starting it on Wattpad and so when it was free on iBooks I had to grab it. The story captured my attention right away and I couldn’t wait to read more. I have to be honest I’ve been loving all the books Misadventure series and this one was no exception. June’s innocence of going from a heartbroken teen to a woman who knows what she wants was so real and natural that it was a pleasure to read. A book about a virgin can go one of two ways overly ridiculous or sweet and caring and this was certainly sweet and caring.

Oh how I loved Kase from his domineering ways to his caring sweet demeanor. When he comes back to town he makes a deal to sell his land and farm to June’s father as long as June stays with him on his farm uninterrupted for two weeks. He certainly is experience and ready to show June everything he has always wanted to do to her, but at the same time making sure it was special for her. Knowing that he had very little time with June he was determined to make the most of it not only showing her how special the farm was but also what was building between each other.

There is so much June still doesn’t know about the feud between the Bell’s and the McCasker’s and it might just be enough to tear them apart. This story had heat, love and lies and all together was a great combination that I loved! If you haven’t read any of the Misadventure series I highly suggest this one, plus it’s written by Meredith Wild so how could you go wrong.

“Thank you,” he whispers. “For making every new day the best day of my life. For trusting me when I was too scared to trust anyone.”

Wow, I have no idea why this has such a high rating because as far as I'm concerned it's a hot mess.

Let's start with the premise. June's dad wants to buy Kase's family farm. Kase says he'll sell it if June will spend 2 weeks with him. Neither family objects at all. But when it somehow occurs to June's dad that she's having sex with Kase (duh!) he rushes over and calls her a whore. Um, if anything he's the one pimping her out so the deal will go through. And then we have parental secrets on both sides, virginity, a H into BDSM, 2nd chances, insta-love, a farm going through tough times, and a hotel expansion. All in the space of about 5 hours. It's just all over the place!

This was a really sweet read and a fantastic second chance romance.Juna and Kase are both from a small town and while Kase went away for college June has never left.She always had a crush on him and they shared a kiss before he left, now he's back and determined to prove to her they can have something good.I just loved the chemistry between these two this was such a sweet book.

Normally, I’m a fan of the books in this series. Not so much this one. There needs to be a fine line between just enough sex and so much sex that you can’t even find the storyline. I found myself skimming over the every other page sex-scapades to get through the premise of the story. Too much effort if you ask me.

This book is a good fit for readers looking for a slow-paced, emotional contemporary romance set in a small town, with a focus on second chance love and the challenges of family businesses.

This story focuses on June and her previous relationship with Kase. It also shows that June will do whatever it takes to try and expand on the hotel her father owns. This includes spending time with Kase as part of a deal that he has arranged. In this deal he askes for June to spend time on his farm and get to know both him and the land they are trying to buy.

I felt the characters were unlikable and the story rushed in the wrong places. The first time they do the dirty was laughable and unbelievable. You would think since it is her first time, she might show some sort of physical pain and he might take it a little slower. Nope. It felt amazing for her and he just pounded into her like he was hammering nails. Sorry, but it just wasn't a good read for me.
