3 beautiful stories about love, lust, loss and heartache. Set in Heaven PA, Jenny wrecked her car to avoid running over a pup. As she wakes from the car wreck she stares into the face of handsome Nick Ryan, chef and owner of the local restaurant. It has only been one year since her husband has been dead. Is it too early for love?
The second book in this series is about Ally who works for Nick Ryan. Ally is being stalked by an ex who is a little bit psycho. Ian, the chief of police is right beside Ally to protect her but finds he has fallen in love with a young woman 15 years younger than himself.
The third book is about Byron who works for Nick. Bryon has been seen in the first and second book as a womanizer and a bit of a Jack the lad. But Bryon has his secrets and heartache that no one knew.
Overall, I loved and enjoyed reading all three books and was not disappointed! The characters all seemed real.
There are some scenes where you laugh and others where you want to scream and yell out to just let go and fall in love.

Aloha to Love by Josie Riviera
Really enjoyed this story because it follows a woman-Angelina and she's a writer and some of her script needs correcting before they can make it into a movie.
The scientific expert Caleb is on the cruise also and he conducts classes about his career choice. He knows a lot about volcanoes. She takes his classes and he helps her with the script-he playing the male part.
Love that he tells her, when he stops reading his lines, that a guy wouldn't say that. what was written. They improvise and get through the script and then some.
Story also follows Rachel who's pregnant and on her way to meet her spouse who's already on the island.
Love hearing of the events that take place away from the ship and all that is learned on the excusions.
Good holiday romance, more from five others.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.

This is my first Patrice Wilton book but it won't be the last! I loved this story. It was very sweet and I loved the characters. I hope there are more books planned for Heavenly. It's a great little town that I would love to live in.
I was gifted a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is a great start to a new series! I loved the characters and the location is wonderful! The Florida Keys is a great place for steamy romances. Three sisters and their mother inherit a small group of vacation cottages and decide to move down from the North and give innkeeping a try. The women are all feisty, very nice and beautiful. Lots of chances for romance with all of their guests and this first one between Kayla & Dr. Sean is HOT! Can't wait for the next one!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is the 2nd book in this series but it works as a standalone too. Set in the Florida Keys it already has a lot going for it and throw in 3 gorgeous sisters and a hot mama too and you can't go wrong! The women inherited a small resort so they left New Jersey and headed south. Determined to make a go of this opportunity they have worked hard to spruce up the cottages and make all of their guests feel as welcome as they can. Taylor is a great cook so she's opened a small cafe on the property and has developed a friendship with a single father who runs a charter boat. He's been burned before and she doesn't do casual so can they ever make a go of it together? Between planning her sisters wedding, keeping her mother in check and bracing for a hurricane can Taylor find the time to deal with love? You'll have to read the book to find out but you won't be sorry you did! Lots of great characters and lots of action (romantic and otherwise) make a great read.

This series was cute and a quick read. Budding Cupid keeps hitting wrong people with his arrows and has to work to make things right. Lively romances with lots of angst.

This is a really sweet series! I love the small town setting and all of the wonderful townspeople. Romance is good, sex is hot but not overt, mystery is good but not overly nail biting. A really nice place to spend an afternoon!

I was given a copy of this book for an honest review.

This was a really good romance! I love this series and how the family works together running the resort. This was Brittany's story and since we're both the babies of the family I could really relate. LOL! Wish I was as talented and pretty as Ms. Brittany. Really sweet romance and really hot sex! Hope this series continues on for a while.

Another wonderful romance set in Heaven, PA. Lovely little town that breeds romance! Single mom with autistic son meets town's most eligible bachelor. Sparks fly but can they last? Very sweet story and love the setting.

I received a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

...
A Complete Family by Mona Risk
This story starts out with Melody and she's late again to work at the hospital.
Her job is usually to aide the surgeons and she has a full life with her jobs. The night job is to waitress at the restaurant so she can help pay for her neighbor's medical bills.
The woman on the first floor of their house would look after Stella and the dog when Melody was working. She's now ill and undergoing tests.
Alden the doctor wants to reprimand her but he's in love with her and also can't justify a raise for her.
He follows her home one day to find out just why she's so late to work and she finally opens up to him. He has a plan and implements it to everyone's satisfaction.
The surrogate grandmother has many secrets and they are told while under recovering from brain surgery, just bits and pieces and they don't much to Melanie...
Alden treasures Melody's work and her family and they become more than friends...
Something has to come to the forefront or they will never survive with one another.
Really found this story heartbreaking at times and sad because of all the turmoil and then again it's happy moment and wonderful children's remarks that grab at your heart.
Love the ending, didn't see it coming. Other works by the author are highlighted at the end and a note from the author is enclosed.
I received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.

I received an ARC of Hearts and Kisses for an honest review. This is a box set of books about love written by a compilation of authors. Like most box sets of books --there are some stories that you love and others you do not. Some of the books this set contained I already owned and others I discovered through the set I was gifted. All of the stories in this set are entertaining and worth a look.

If you like traditional, old fashioned romance you will probably enjoy this book. There was very little sex, very little action and it moved slllooowwwly. I gave the book two stars because it is fairly well written for it's genre, but I was bored out of my mind. I kept waiting for excitement and romance. No excitement and one very poorly treated heroine. It's a HEA story, no cliffhanger. I won't be reading anymore by this author. The book was free, so I'm only out a couple of hours of my time.

I don't usually read boxed sets, but I was asked to read/review in exchange for an honest review. The books looked interesting so I decided to give it a try.

Reading Between the Lines by Anna J Stewart (5 stars)
When Ethan Sutherland was in high school, he'd do anything to hide his secret. He is back in town and hopes Cassidy will forgive him for betraying him many years ago. Original story line. I like how the story unfolds. An enjoyable read.

This book is hard to rate. At first I enjoyed it, but halfway through there was no longer a story and it became repetitive. I started skipping bits. All in all, not a great book but I would give this author another chance.
5/10

I haven't had a chance to read all ten of these books but I have read several of them and I loved them all. Fun uplifting stories they have kept me entertained for hours. Ten incredible authors found in one place, you can't go wrong. Highly recommended!!

Having only read the first two stories in this collection I know I will have much fun reading to come between now and Christmas. If the first two are anything to go by these stories are steamy and loving and full of fun!

The first story in this bundle was written by Ruth Cardello and is about a college graduate from a wealthy loving family who has just heard a “secret” and is not happy so flies off in her private jet to France. This story of Madison and Richard, the wealthy princess and the talented chef, is one that is sweet and loving and filled with the message that family and love of family is very important. As with all love stories there is a glitch to deal with but it is also a happily ever after story perfect for the holidays.

The second book is by Nina Bruns and is the story of Nick and Emily. He is a vice cop trying to catch a human trafficker before joining the K-9 squad and she is looking for a new job in the city that will provide more excitement than she had in small town New Hampshire. There is chemistry and fun with an almost love at first sight beginning. There is also danger and action before the happy ending. Another great story for the holidays.

I can hardly wait to read the rest of the books in this bundle…eight more to go and eager to read each and every one of them! And…how can you beat the price at 99cents for all ten?
