Publisher's Summary:

Zach

Nessa is one of my closest friends, so there's no way I'll ruin our friendship for a hookup. Even if I want to be with her. Badly. She's beautiful, and sweet, and her bright light draws me from the darkness that trails my every move. But it's the darkness of my past that has me keeping Nessa at arm's length. I'll protect her if it's the last thing I do - even if it means protecting her from myself, because I can't give her the kind of relationship she deserves.

Nessa

Zach doesn't discriminate when it comes to the women he dates. Except with me. Me, he keeps in the friend zone. I want him. I've always wanted him, and I think he wants me too. But I can't remain in Lake Tahoe and pine for Zach forever. My career is stuck, my personal life as well, with Zach always pushing me away the moment sparks fly between us. I can either leave this town and make a fresh start somewhere else, or finally show Zach how right we are for each other.

All books in the Blue Series are standalone stories that can be heard in any order.

Short, but entertaining! It would have been nice to understand more about Zacs mother, and the roll that her(so called) friend

Played in her death and her sexual abuseI am excited to listen to the last bookuse of Zac. For a short story it was well done

Too short!!

Seemed more of a novella than a full story. I feel that Nessa's & Zack's story could've been a lot longer and had more depth to it like the other stories. I wanted to hear more about the two.

Love this novella

I'm usually not a fan of novellas, but I loved this one. it was sweet and was the smeamiest in the Men of Tahoe series. It was a good way to give Zach and Nb

ella their story while setting up for the next book. It had the perfect blend. In some of her other books the side stories sometime took away from the main characters. These are two really great narrators. Zachary Webber and Emily do a great job. enjoyed.

Sweet couple

Nice short story in the middle of longer ones in this series, enjoyed a break from lots of angst and misunderstandings. There was an issue but the couple didn't let it drag on, love the openness of the relationship once they finally got together.

Publisher's Summary:

When Tobin Hale stepped in to stop Garnet Evans's son from railroading her out of her own home, he knew moving in with his favorite Mud Lily could be seen as strange. But nothing prepared him for the arrival of Garnet's fiery, beautiful granddaughter, Jade - or her assumption that he's up to no good.

While Tobin might be the hottest man Jade Evans has ever seen, his physical attributes won't distract her from protecting her grandma from his sweet-talking ways. But the stubborn cowboy digs in his boot heels and refuses to leave. Stuck in close quarters together, Jade learns Tobin is the real deal - a hardworking, fiercely loyal man - and she's the one in danger of losing her heart.

And just when he was prepared to leave Muddy Gap behind, Tobin may have found the kind of woman worth sticking around for.

Members Reviews:

Finally asexy series worth having

You want hot sexy guys with heart and character that respect the women they lust for this is the series for you. Most erotic fiction frankly makes me crazy. It is always a domineering man chasing a weak or painfully innocent woman. Sometimes it is worse a strong woman over looks horrible behavior because the sex is too good to walk away from. This series is delightfully different the men a strong sexy dominant but also sweet. Good guys who don't finish last because they respect the women they are after. Trust me the sex is still smoking hot the romance however is sweet and you want them to get their happily ever after.

In this case all around good guy Tobin has been searching for someone to call his own and when he finds her he will stop at nothing to keep her.

Never disappointed

I have never been disappointed with Lorelei James. There is a passion in her writing that puts butterflies in my tummy! Amazing characters make you laugh out loud make you relate make you cry! Love love love!!

Great series

Good, but my favorite is turn and burn, the mudlilies are in this one a lot.

buy it

Love love this book.

Lorelei doesn't disappoint! Love, love ,love this book! I laughed, cried it was awesome. Thanks

Publisher's Summary:

From USA Today best-selling author Sarah Morgan comes a hot new trilogy set in the exciting world of New York City. Don't miss this heartwarming story about a trio of women navigating friendship, finding love, and embracing life!

Cool, calm, and competent, events planner Paige Walker loves a challenge. After a childhood spent in and out of hospitals, she's now determined to prove herself - and where better to take the world by storm than Manhattan? But when Paige loses the job she loves, she must face her biggest challenge of all - going it alone.

Except launching her own events company is nothing compared to hiding her outrageous crush on Jake Romano - her brother's best friend, New York's most in-demand date, and the only man to break her heart. When Jake offers Paige's fledgling company a big chance, their still-sizzling chemistry starts giving her sleepless nights. But can she convince the man who trusts no one to take a chance on forever?

Members Reviews:

Cute friends-to-lovers romantic comedy!

3.5 Stars!

Sleepless in Manhattan, was a cute friends-to-lovers, rom-com. It was light-hearted and low on the angst scale.

Paige Walker spent her youth in and out of hospitals and under the watchful and protective eye of her family. As an adult, she was determined to prove she was capable of taking care of herself. She'd had one love, and that was her brother's best friend, Jake Romano.

Jake Romano was a highly successful businessman. An all-around nice guy, he was charming, protective and funny. He caused women to swoon and hearts to flutter. But his past taught him love wasn't forever.

I had a small issue with the length of the book. To me, there was too much internal dialogue and struggle, that at times, it felt like filler.

BUT

There were many things I loved about this book (aside from the story and main characters); the chapter headings, Eva and Frankie and the banter between Jake and Paige.

âHoney, my ego is bulletproof. you couldn't take it down with a rocket launcher.â

I enjoyed this author's voice. I am disappointed that I have not heard of Sarah Morgan before now. But this will definitely not be the last book I read from her.

Fun and entertaining

Paige Walker and her 2 best friends, Frankie and Eva, are out of a job. It's a tough market to hack into NYC and they all want to stay there. Enter Jake Romano, the best friend of Paige's older brother, Matt, and also the source of Paige's heartbreak so many years ago when he rejected her. Jake has the capital and connections to help Paige start over and as much as it pains her to ask for help, she does so because she doesn't want to let her friends down. Although Jake and Paige have a tense dynamic, they were close friends a long time ago and don't mince words with one another, which Paige appreciates because she's so used to her family always protecting her. The story was cute, funny and had just the right amount of sexual tension and character development. I also loved the friendship between Paige, Frankie and Eva, they are the perfect balance for each other. As for Jake, I enjoyed watching his transformation and realizing that falling in love didn't spell doomsday for him. Looking forward to reading more about the other characters.

Quick and dirty, but fun

I was surprised by how much I liked this book.

Love!

Absolutely love Lori Wildes writing. Lisa Zimmerman made a great story even better! Cant wait to read/listen to the next one!

A Wedding in Twilight!

What made the experience of listening to A Wedding for Christmas the most enjoyable?

I always love hearing the story read outloud. It makes the story more real and like I'm watching a movie in my head.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved being able to go back to Twilight, Texas and revisit characters from other books in the series. It is always fun to catch up on what everyone is doing with each new story.

What does Lisa Zimmerman bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book?

She gave it that Texas Twang that made it so much fun to listen to.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The scene where Ryder finally admits how he feels and what he wants for the rest of his life. Great ending!

My name is shouted on rooftops. It's written on bras, on the inside of bathroom stalls - hell, my name is everywhere. To say my name is to experience an orgasm without ever leaving your damn house.

And what they want is the idea of me; the pleasure they gain by listening to my song and knowing without a doubt that I'm talking about them and only them. It worked for a while. Until a nerdy girl with glasses falls at my feet, literally, and suddenly I don't want to be Saint anymore. What I want? What I really need? Is to be kept. By her.

Members Reviews:

Good story

This audiobook was very entertaining, just a little slow at first. The story of famous rockstar Zane, who has issues and a secret, and nerdy girl Fallon, who feels she is way out of her league is sweet and romantic. The narration was great and loved the ending. Fallon's dad was just hilarious!

Loved it.

Funny and engaging. Nice, sweet love story. Hilarious characters that you can't help but fall for. Looking forward to the next one.

End of chapter 44

Hi great book, really enjoying the series but you need to look at the end of chapter 44 it has the end of chapter 45 right at the end.

Publisher's Summary:

After a lifetime of longing for a real family, Sarah Smith thought she'd finally found her home with rock star Abe Bellamy, even if she knew Abe didn't love her the way she loved him. But their brief relationship, filled with tragedy and heartache, nearly destroyed her. Alone, emotions in turmoil, and already shaky self-esteem shattered, Sarah struggles to pick up the pieces in the wake of their divorce.

Abe knows he's to blame for the end of his marriage. Caught in a web of painful memories, he pushed away the best thing in his life - the sexy, smart woman he adores - breaking them both in the process. Then fate throws him a second chance to get things right, to prove to Sarah that she means everything to him. Abe desperately wants that second chance at love, even if he knows he doesn't deserve it.

But can he convince Sarah - now strong and independent without him - to risk her wounded heart one more time?

Members Reviews:

IMO, GOOD.. BUT IT WAS THE WEAKEST IN THE SERIES

As Abe and Sarah's marriage crumbles through drugs, grief, broken promises and harsh words Sarah thought it would totally break her.. and it nearly did. But, after the heartache of a love lost, hurtful words and shattered dreams dwindled to manageable pain, Sarah blossomed into a successful businesswoman and took over her own life.. and the direction it took. Abe however was hurting.. still hurting over the death of his little sister and heartbroken over the loss of the woman he deeply loved - so what did he do? Well, like any good Rocker.. he partied - partied hard - partied until his Band mates checked him into rehab. When he wasn't high or drunk anymore, and could think clearly, he knew one thing.. he wanted his wife back - and he'd move heaven and earth to get her to love him again.

And so starts this romantic second chance love story because Abe is given the unexpected chance to show Sarah how much he's changed, how much he regrets his past behaviour, how much he's willing to do anything for her.. and how much he loves her. But Sarah is very cautious about lowering her shields and letting Abe in to maybe shatter her world all over again. So it's up to Abe to show Sarah rather than tell her that the old Abe is gone.. replaced by a caring, loving, dependable.. and sober Abe.

While this was an enjoyable dual POV love story, I did feel the loss of certain scenes that would have made this listen more punchy, deeper and dramatic. However, after their rocky start, Abe and Sarah sailed nicely into their HEA's with no dramas or angsty situation - except the background worry that things would go smoothly for all. There were sex scenes but they weren't over described, overdone or prolonged, all the other well loved band mates (and their significant others) were present.. and sometimes the spotlight was turned their way - and there were a few other secondary characters too. I love Justine O. Keef's narration - her male voices are great and so too were the secondary characters whose voices were all different.

Worth a credit? Nalini Singh has wrapped up this series well, tied a shiny ribbon around it.. and even given us a big fat bow on top.. so hell yeah it's creditworthy.

Left a lot to be desired

I read an earlier review by someone who said nothing really happened in this story. So very true.

Publisher's Summary:

Can Tom and Rose navigate their friendship to find a new brand of happily ever after?

The only thing Tom Lovell knows is ranching, having been raised by a single dad on a Montana cattle ranch before moving to Three Rivers Ranch. He's watched other men on the ranch get hitched one by one, but he's not sure he's the marrying type. His mother's abandonment when he was a child colors how he sees women, and besides, he's a fifth generation cowboy, and that's enough for him.

Rose Reyes has been raising her autistic child, Mari, by herself for seven years. She's frustrated she doesn't have an adult to talk to after a long day at work, that her ex-husband seems to have moved on without a care about Mari while Rose is determined to wait until she's older before dating again. Though Mari's been improving due to her equine therapy, she's moody and sometimes explosive, and Rose just wants a break from it all.

She confesses to Tom that she feels completely out of control of her life. He doesn't judge her for her feelings or shortcomings, and instead offers to help fix her leaking kitchen sink and mow her overgrown lawn. As Tom and Rose spend more time together, Tom realizes his friendship with Rose could grow into something more - if he'd let it. Tom and Rose will need faith and love to navigate the road from friendship to something more, without risking Mari in the process.

Title: Wifed by the Mountain Man

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 55 votes

Genres: Romance, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

"That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen." She laughs softly. "Reed, you've been alone far too long if a woman putting a baby to sleep is the thing that gets you hard."

"Oh, honey." I pull her close. "Plenty gets me hard."

"Show me," she whispers. "Show me how hard you can get."

Reed

When a social worker dropped a baby girl off at my cabin, saying she was mine, my life changed. I moved to the mountains to live life on my own terms, and having a child doesn't fit into that plan. I'm my own f--king man and don't need anyone busting my balls. I don't want a wife. I'm looking for a mother for my baby. The moment I meet Amelia, I know she isn't just any woman. She has ideas of how a relationship should work, and our views sure as hell don't align. But our chemistry is off the motherf--king charts, and that might be enough to change my mind about what makes a marriage.

Amelia

After breaking up with the douchebag of the year, all I want is a real man who knows how to take care of a woman. A mountain man seems perfect; I'll tame him and he can protect me. But the moment I walk into Reed's luxury cabin in the woods I realize this deal is more than I bargained for. I want to be housewife, but a stay-at-home mom? Um. I don't know if I can hack it. And even if I can, do I want to? The answer would be easy if Reed didn't turn me on - and get me off - so perfectly. I came to the woods to find my happily-ever-after, but I might have found an ending I never expected.

Warning: This book contains all the trappings for a steamy Frankie Love romance. Panty-melting sex, fierce men, and true love. Oh, and there's an epilogue with all the girls and their mountain men! Eep!

Members Reviews:

Hot mountain hunk!

At first I really didn't like the hero in this story, but he kind of grew on me. I thought he was really being selfish, but in the end he figured out what was most important. The story is a nice short and sexy listen, while the narration was great!

I am done with this author !

Any additional comments?

I think this author is going to be a no go from now on!

A major issue I had with this series is that each book began the exact same way.

I found myself getting annoyed with Amelia as well, why keep hopping into bed with Reed when you know what he wants. Granted everything ended up great because it's fiction land.HAPPY READING EVERYONE!!

Publisher's Summary:

This Christmas, Santa's wearing a Stetson.

'Tis the night before Christmas and all through the house is the presence of one wickedly hot cowboy who's come to stay for the holiday. Fiona Logan is downright shocked to return to her childhood home and find that the tall blond stranger who came to her rescue on an icy road will be sleeping just across the hall from her bedroom. Talk about temptation.

Jud Dawson never believed the Lucky Penny Ranch would live up to its name until now. Fiona is gorgeous, smart, funny, and everything he thought he'd never find. Now all he has to do is convince her to stick around town instead of hightailing it back to Houston. But with wild weather, nosy neighbors, and a new baby in the family, getting her to admit that she's falling in love might just take a Christmas miracle.

Critic Reviews:

"Top Pick! Carolyn Brown writes about everyday things that happen to all of us and she does it with panache, class, empathy and humor. 4 stars." (Night Owl Reviews on Merry Cowboy Christmas)

"Jud with his slow, Texas drawl is one sexy cowboy who will have readers falling in love with him. His romantic connection with Fiona sizzles. Brown's modern storytelling and fun-filled plot will engage readers and wrap them up in this sweet, Southern holiday romance." (RT Book Reviews )

Members Reviews:

Enjoyment.

Enjoyed this. It is isa feel good book. No drama. No wild craziness. Need something like this for the season.

Still smiling!

I love this series, can't wait to see what's next. I laughed out loud and cried and never wanted the book to end.

I feel like this story wasn't that great

honestly this book was boring. it was just the same story as the last two but literally with no effort in the author imagination.
