Beautiful! Grayson has delivered another heartwarming read! Crazy, Beautiful Love is the fourth book in the Dirty Dick's series. although it is a standalone novel, I recommend you read the series. Finally, Tess's story is here! I always loved her character from the previous books. She stole my heart early on when she adopted Simon! Beau was a pleasant surprise. We haven't gotten a lot of background on him before, so I was excited to find out his story as well! Both these characters have knows very little about and think that made their story exciting and intresting! What I didn't expect was the emotional punch that came with Tess! Ohhh my poor Tess! I just wanted to hug her! She has worked so hard to better herself. She's been alone for a long time now and it isn't easy for her to open up and let people in. Insert Beau Allen, back in town for his brother's wedding and let the sparks fly! Beau and Tess's history surprised me, and once the truth comes to light it really hits you deep. Even the smallest of lies can have a huge effect, in this instance, it's Tess's leaving. Once the two talk everything and take a chance on the attraction they feel for each other, things really heat up. I loved their passion! I was rooting for these two along with Meddling Mo and Claire. The surprise call at the ending wiped me out! Another surprise I never saw coming! Though this one hit me hard, I went through several tissues! I loved Crazy, Beautiful Love, it was different than the other novels. I'm very much looking forward to Cooper's story! I received a review copy in exchange for an honest review.

I really think this series keeps getting better and better. I wanted to get Tess's backstory since the first book in this series, and getting to know the mysterious oldest Allen brother- Beau- who was always travelling for work. I wasn't disappointed at all! I loved these two t0gether right from the start.

I definitely recommend Crazy, Beautiful Love, and this series~!

This book is Beau-itful

I don't know how she did it but K.I Grayson topped herself again! Beau is the perfect her. He is the strong man that heroine Tess needs as she figures out her life. Their love story is heartwarming. Five star read! Definite one click!

I was so excited to read this book. I love the town of Heaven, Texas and the entire Allen family and their significant others.

Tess isn’t an official member of the Allen family but she is treated like family, especially with being best friends with Mo and Claire. Beau is rarely in Heaven, but he is back for his brother, Rhett’s wedding. He can’t figure out why Tess has been cold with him since day one, but he doesn’t like it. Will Tess be able to admit to her friends and to Beau who she will is? Will it change how they look at her?

I love Tess. She is a hardworker who hasn’t always had an easy life, but she has done everything she can to make it better, to change who she was in the past. Beau is sweet, he is romantic and he loves his family fiercely. The tension between Tess and Beau is steamy, there is no denying that have a connection with each other. When they finally give in sparks fly!

I couldn’t put this book down and loved every moment of it. Tess and Beau’s story may be my favorite in the series.

This can be read as a standalone, but I think it is best read with as part of the Dirty Dicks series. Another fantastic story from K.L. Grayson!

Where to begin... First off this is a sweet love story between two people who were made for each other. Beau and Tess start out with a love hate kind of relationship. Tess avoids him at all cost, but when circumstances force them to be together we get a good look at just how sassy she can be. Beau for the life of him can not figure out just what the issue is. The time they spend together we get to see the different sides to each character. It is like they evolve in front of our eyes. We watch just how the relationship shifts from friends to something more. The chemistry between Beau and Tess is scorching hot. I like how this is a slow burn and the two characters get to know each other, before they get to know each other. If you are looking for a sweet read then this book is for you. You get a very sassy heroine and a hero who will not give up.

I really liked Beau, he’s a steady, constant force for Tess, and a great book boyfriend for us. The chemistry between them was great. My only complaint, and it's a very minor one, is there was no real conflict in the book. The only hurdle is they both were afraid to confess their feelings. I still found it super enjoyable to read, and liked getting to know the main characters, and revisiting the family from the previous books

This was a quick read, and one that I really enjoyed. And, before I get into my review, a quick read is not a bad thing. I am not saying the book was short, or not developed, just that it was a smooth read, there was not a lot of angst, and I was able to just enjoy.

I liked Tess, the way she was trying to put her life back together and I loved Beau, how attracted he was to her, and why he couldn't figure out the reason she seemed familiar to him. It was interesting that the reader finds out her past as Beau does, so the moment is one that is shared and you can experience that feeling, the moment where you realize someone older, with more maturity, would have made a different decision.

I was a little worried the "reveal" wasn't going to ring true...but, it really did. And, it was also in line for the decisions I believe would realistically be made by people the age they were when the initially met.

I have read a couple of other titles by this author, and this one is one of my favorites in the series. I believed in the characters, the choices they made, the reasons they had for them, and most of all, I believe that they are together for the long haul.

I enjoyed and recommend this title.
