Cheyenne (The Women of Merryton Book 4) by: Jennifer Peel

ABOUT THIS BOOK:
What happens when your motto in life has been to always love yourself more than anyone else could, but then you find someone who does it better? If you’re Cheyenne Fairchild, you do your best to push him away. 

Cheyenne’s life has taught her to never depend on anyone, especially men. She’s done her best to keep every relationship short and every man at arm’s length. That is, until the mysterious Aidan Bates moves to town. Not only does he give earth-shattering kisses, but he has the audacity to save her life after a tragic accident. Now Cheyenne can’t stop thinking about him, and it’s driving her crazy. Worse, he won’t stop trying to help her. 
While Cheyenne is doing her best to keep Aidan from working his way into her no vacancy heart, she finds herself embroiled in more than one Merryton scandal. One that rocks her best friend’s world and shows what Cheyenne is really made of. And one that she’s created in hopes of deterring Aidan. Unfortunately for her, she finds that it only brings them closer together. 
Can Cheyenne let her defenses down long enough to see that Aidan is unlike any other man she has ever known? Or will she cling to the past and the walls she’s carefully constructed around her heart? 


MY THOUGHTS:
I’ve always loved Cheyenne I was happy to see her get her own book. We all knew she was going to be a difficult one haha. Aidan is the perfect balance for her personality. We all need someone that can tame us down and help us become a better person. It’s been a while since Ive read the other books in this series so it was nice to get an update on the characters from the other books. I’m excited about the spin off as well! Another amazing book by this Author!

A first love that deserves a second chance.
Doctoral student Holland Reeves may have aced every class she's ever taken, but when it comes to life outside her lab, she finds she has more meaningful relationships with test tubes and pipettes than she does with people. That all changes when a surprise wedding invitation arrives, forcing her to return to the small coastal town of Paradise and the Clairborne Resort, where she left her first dream of being Mrs. Clairborne to begin the dream of becoming Dr. Reeves. There she must face her past and, to her surprise, the only man she ever loved, Porter Clairborne, the prodigal son who has unexpectedly returned.
Together, Holland and Porter must decide if their love deserves a second chance, and if Paradise will finally live up to its name or forever remain a town of broken dreams.

ABOUT THE BOOK
Can their love survive her secret?

Hannah Rhodes is determined to keep her beachfront property, even though she can’t afford to. But it’s her childhood home and she can’t bear to see it plowed down by the billionaire investor who keeps raising his offer to buy it. When the same man hires her to be his daughter’s nanny—providing her the income she needs to reject his offer—the irony is not lost on her. However, seeing him as a loving, worried father makes it difficult to enjoy her secret revenge. 
For Carter Ellis, building his own resort was a massive risk, but worth it to build a new life for his daughter away from his controlling mother. Everything is going to plan except that the owner of the tumbled-down home blocking his resort view and threatening its success refuses to sell. If only his new nanny would stop distracting him, he just might be able to figure out how to solve this problem. Not only is she beautiful and vibrant, she’s helping his daughter bloom. Just when he begins to give in to his feelings, he discovers who she really is.
When their trust is shaken, will Carter and Hannah sacrifice what they wanted most for a chance at something more?

The Sidelined Wife (More Than a Wife Series Book 1) by: Jennifer Peel

ABOUT THIS BOOK:

"This story will be on every girl's night book club list this year." - Farmhouse Reviews★★★★★
"Fiercely honest, brave but lighted-hearted, The Sidelined Wife by Jennifer Peel is one of the best romance novels I have read in a long, long time." - Readers Favorite ★★★★★
She's getting back in the game, one blog post at a time.
Samantha Higgins never thought driving her husband's car would forever change her life. But one conversation later, heard through his Bluetooth, and Samantha is changing her last name. While trying to figure out who Samantha Decker is, she writes what she thinks is one final post on her blog, announcing her divorce. When the post goes viral, she finds herself with a new title, The Sidelined Wife, and an unbelievable following.
To make matters more interesting, her younger brother's best friend, Reed Cassidy, who was a thorn in Samantha's adolescent side, moves back to town as the new head football coach for her son's high school team. Unbeknownst to Samantha, Reed has harbored a crush for his old babysitter all these years. But, Samantha isn't keen on dating anyone, much less a younger man that used to booby trap her bedroom with firecrackers.
While Samantha is doing her best to learn and even make up some of the rules of single life and being a semi-celebrity, Reed comes in and changes the game. Now Samantha must decide if she should get back on the field or if she prefers the sidelines.

MY THOUGHTS:
I learned of this book at an Authors luncheon when it was still in the planning stages. I’m not sure why I took so long to get to it because it was AMAZING! Samantha is the woman we all want to be. I would love it if I got positive responses when I speak my mind. I can’t say that happens very often, I usually cause problems haha. Marriages are hard work. Sam got shafted for sure but she came out stronger and that is all we can hope for in any relationship. I love Sam and Reed together I didn’t want this book to end. Can’t wait for the next one is this series!

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Painfully betrayed by his long-time girlfriend, Dex Blackwell, billionaire, heads to Mackinac Island where he is interviewed by London Marseilles for her MyHeartChannel travel page. London’s quick wit, gorgeous smile, and sense of humor make him question his decision to swear off women.

London Marseilles, like her mother and her mother’s mother, has a talent for finding the exact wrong guy. After dating a long stream of moochers and professional video game players, she accepts the Marseilles Curse and swears off men. Her 9 Reasons to Never Fall in Love, Ever episode on her channel, lays out the reasons why and receives constant views. When a seemingly perfect guy—handsome, funny, easygoing—walks off the ferry, she’s cautious with her heart, especially when Dex is vague about his employment. 

A storm strands Dex on the island and somehow London ends up offering him and two other travelers refuge from the Great Lakes weather. Once again, a hot but unambitious guy has landed on her couch. It’s a good thing she has her 9 Reasons, or she might be tempted to prolong the invitation. 

After Dex leaves, London can’t get him out of her mind and Dex does everything he can to convince her to date him—everything except open his bank account to prove he’s not the freeloader he appears to be.
Can London find the faith in this man she’s fallen for, and faith in herself to take a leap at love or will she let her fear of the family curse chase away the perfect guy?

I loved the reality of this book. Relationships are hard. They aren’t always the fairy tales we like to read about and it is all overcoming our fears and insecurities to give ourselves completely to another. Dan really nails that point on the head in this one. I love the chemistry between Dex and London you’ll find yourself hoping they both get a happily ever after!

Last Chance (In The Garden Book 4) by: Heather Tullis

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Four years ago Comfrey turned her back on the high-class life she had been raised in and her equally high-class fiance--knowing he loved the life she had found suffocating. Excited to be moving forward with her new permaculture homestead, and sure she is finally over him, she is shocked to find Nick standing on her doorstep.

Nick had no plans to see Comfrey again after she broke his heart, but his boss, who happens to be her father, has other ideas. Tasked with convincing her to come back to the fold, he finds that loving her is something he may never get out of his blood. Now he just has to convince her that they have a future together.

MY THOUGHTS:
Loved this one! Sad that it will be the last in this series. I had a lot of fun reading this one and I can relate to Comfry in a lot of ways. There is nothing wrong with distancing yourself from people, especially family, when they are dragging you down. When someone doesn’t take the time to understand you and your thoughts they have no place trying to suggest what’s best for you. I’m so glad Comfry was willing to give her and Nick another try and it was nice to see some of the other characters from the earlier books show up here. Can’t wait to see more from this Author.

The Baby Assignment (The Baby Protectors) by: Christy Barritt

ABOUT THIS BOOK:
BABY IN JEOPARDY

Tasked with figuring out who left a baby girl at the Houston FBI office, Special Agent Tanner Wilson has only one hint—his ex-girlfriend’s name written on a scrap of paper. But child psychologist Macy Mills doesn’t recognize little Addie, and someone’s dead set on abducting her…even if it costs Tanner’s and Macy’s lives. And with Addie and Macy as targets, Tanner’s new mission is to protect them both—at the risk of his own life andheart. Macy will do anything to help him find who’s after Addie, and make amends for her past mistakes. But for their reunion to become a second chance at love, they must find a way to survive the danger threatening to tear them apart.

MY THOUGHTS:

This was a fast paced suspense novel with a lot of action. I couldn’t imagine having to work with an Ex especially in a high stress situation. The chemistry between Tanner and Macy is there for sure but neither wants to act on it. You can’t help but cheer for a happily ever after for them all. If you like fast paced books that just keep the action coming you’ll love this one for sure!
