Game Face: The Waiting Series Next Generation by Ginger Scott
4.5
4.5 stars
I did not think Ginger Scott could top Home Game! The intensity and feelings held my attention, and the book was hard to put down.
Well, we are back for more of the Waiting Series. Wyatt and Peyton’s story brings more, the last year of college brings a test of their relationship, the struggles, the love, and overcoming obstacles with growth and grace. The strength from the love of family and friends, and the realization as to what is truly important in life.
The future looks good, and I am looking forward to what the next book brings. I am expecting speed bumps as Peyton and Wyatt move forward in their lives, I cannot wait.

Love Me fierce by Dakota Davies

Another page turner from Dakota Davies! I recommend the previous book, “Love Me Fearless” as this story has a thread of mystery that starts there.
This series is just getting better with every book, action, mystery, danger, suspense, secrets, and a stalker are just part of the complicated story.
Everett has been a quiet, low key character until now. We find out he has many layers to him, his best is dad. Vivian is a single mom, a mama bear when it comes to protecting her son, and burdened with secrets, not sure who she can trust.

Every Single Wild Flower by S.J. Chaynie

I could not put this book down, I love Maddox and Ivy’s story. Ivy grabbed me, and I needed to know more. The story is told in the past and present.
Ivy returns to her family's ranch to help while her father recuperates. She runs into the one person she hopes to avoid. As their story unfolds, we learn of unresolved feelings, but can they really make it work this time? Her stay has an end date.
Also, kudos to the author for the ex-brother trope done well. The story has some bite, the family secrets are fantastic, the small town charming, and I am ready for more.

An introduction novella/prequel that has me excited for this new series! Kristen and Sam give us just enough to have us wanting more. They thought they had plans, they thought they had the summer…

Beautiful Exile by Catherine Cowles
4.0
We are back in Sparrow Falls for the fourth book in the series. This book was full of surprises for me, in a good way. Her characters Arden and Linc are unique, and bring a fresh look to the series.
The suspense is a little stronger in this book; stalking, and danger are also there. For me, again, the mystery remains until the end, and the small town, with its found family, is as charming as ever!
Another wonderful Catherine Cowles is out in the world, and I am looking forward to the next one!

Another guilty pleasure author, I love the small towns and families this author builds. Her big, sometimes crazy families and extended families bring the humor.
In this book –
• Fake dating
• One of the better meet cutes
• Hilarious text threads
• Enemies to lovers
• BANTER
• Small town
Lulu and Rafe are off to a bad start, but the chemistry is there! Until dates are needed, and then a solution is found. The humor is endless, the story engaging, and wanting more!

In an almost one day read, I have fallen in love with another couple from this author. Our characters are complex, a broody pub owner with dreams of expansion. A journey to another country to find herself, and meet a family she knew nothing about.
Sawyer and Rory have an addictive storyline, and while things progress slowly, we get to know them as friends. Sawyer inherits a bookstore in London, taking a leap, she moves from California, and sets off on her new adventure. Rory feels all his dreams might have a chance, as the shop owner who shares his building passes, and his son offers to sell him the space.
The first meeting is fun, the second a little rough, but as walls come down, the story gets really good.

Welcome to Moose Village, a new small town series by Kelly Elliott.
Kian is at a crossroads, not enjoying his life as a layer. His parents chose the path, now he wants a new one. He returns to his hometown. Cadie is in hiding, after seeing something she shouldn’t, she packs up and heads south and then north, landing in Moose Village.
The attraction between these two is instant, and an immediate friendship is born. I love what I have read so far, and as the secrets unfold I found the book hard to put down.

A new second generation series from Carrie Ann Ryan, and this novella gives us just enough to have this reader wanting more!
The story moves quickly as Ewan and Livvy meet as he saves her daughter. Ewan then invites Livvy to the Wedding in Wyoming, as his fake date. Will a romance bloom? Feelings, emotions, and the past lead to impulsive decisions, or will she put on the brakes?
I am looking forward to more of this series, but for now grab this introduction and enjoy!

The fine line between hate and love.
We are back in Montgavin, a small town rocked by tragedy not long ago. With each story we get another perspective on that night, and its aftershocks. Everleigh and Brock’s story gives us a little more information about that night and the town.
When Everleigh left town, broken hearts were left in the wake, hers and Brock's.
Everleigh’s mother has a heart attack while on the phone with her, and she rushes back to Montgavin to run her mother’s bakery. Knowing full well it is just a matter of time before she runs into the one she hates the most.
This story pulls together a community, but not without some small town drama. We get second chances, healing, and a chance to start again. This book and series have a lot of heart, and I have enjoyed every book to date.
