Noelle had a special story and Grant was absolutely perfect for her. We had previously seen Noelle decide that she wants to have a baby on her own. Now we get her story, and it felt pretty emotional, especially if you are a mom who can related to her feelings. Noelle was vulnerable with her feelings and the stresses she was facing and it made her mom relatable.
Noelle is just trying to survive single motherhood when she meets Grant unexpectedly, and a little bit embarassingly. When fate reunites them again, Grant makes sure he takes his shot with Noelle. It is impossible not to fall in love with Grant. The way he immediately took to Scarlet was so heartwarming. He was constantly showing up for Noelle & Scarlet and taking care of them. Grant had his own secret that he was afraid would scare away Noelle for good. The way they worked through it though, and what they went through brought back some really emotional times for me personally.
Connor Crais and CJ Bloom really nailed this audio! They brought all the dang emotions! I could really feel everything they were going through. ...more

I honestly think it is just fine to read after both Almond Bay even though timeline wise it occurs in between the 2 Almond Bay books.
Maggie and Brody were fun, these enemies find themselves fake dating and enjoying a destination wedding together. Brody is not your alpha hero who comes off so strong, instead he is funny and maybe a little quirky, and he has flaws and weaknesses. The crazy shenanigans he gets himself into are hilarious. He was constantly finding himself in crazy and embarrassing situations. I do wish Maggie was a bit more sympathetic, or maybe put in some of the same situations. Maggie & Brody’s banter will have you laughing the entire book.
This is the perfect read with the summer getting closer, I enjoyed all the tropical location feels and fun excursions. The story is your classic MQ banter and spice. Of course it is a bit of a slow burn. Even the conflict at the end was kinda funny in the way it went down.
The audiobook was very well done. You can tell Jason & Erin have done many audios together because their chemistry together was perfect. The duet narration really made this come to life and their portrayal of the MCs couldn’t have been better. They pulled off the antics exceptionally well, huge props to Jason on that one. This is definitely one of those books where I believe I laughed more listening to the audio than I would have just reading. ...more

The way she tells a story is beautiful, I enjoy the overlapping timelines throughout the series that give different perspectives of events. Every character Hannah writes has some back story/ painful past/ flaws that really make them an interesting character and especially to see how they overcome it.
I couldn’t wait for Watson and Ryann’s story. We had previously seen them and were let in on their secret marriage during the last book so now we finally got their story from the beginning and find out what went down. From the moment I delved into the first chapter, I was captivated by Watson and Ryann. Ryann comes off a little rough at first. She is unnecessarily rude to Watson and all he wants is to get to know her.
When Ryann finds herself in trouble, Watson does whatever he can to fix it. They quickly get married and Watson uses this as an opportunity for Ryann to really get to know him and fall for him. My man Watson was all in from the beginning, he cared for Ryann before she even liked him. It took Ryann a lot longer to come around but when she finally did they had a beautiful relationship. The filthy mouth on Watson is so surprising, this man might be a cinnamon roll hero, but in the bedroom he is a filthy animal! They begin to work through their issues and address Ryann’s fears and she finally sees how much she can trust her heart to Watson. Everything is going great, until their lies threaten to ruin everything. Will they be able to fix it before it is too late?
Hannah writes this story that weaves the stories of Watson and his hockey career, Ryann and her dancing career, their marriage of convenience with all the emotions of love and family and friendship. From the tender moments of vulnerability to the raw intensity of passion, every interaction is such a beautiful part of their story....more
