Book Review: A Seaside Wonder

In one evening, Indi’s world falls apart. Enter the shy professor her family mistakes for her fiancé…make that ex-fiancé.

Professor Philip West never wanted to return to Maine . . . or his grandfather’s miserable old house. But after his mother’s death, he’s now the guardian of a teenage half sister who doesn’t want anything to do with him. He longs to help her heal, but he’s exhausted and numb, desperate for relief of his own. Maybe that’s why he’s so easily distracted when he happens upon the little shop with an intriguing owner—one who happens to share a name with someone from his grandfather’s mysterious past.

More than a decade has passed since Indi Muir made the heartbreaking decision she’s never recovered from—though she’s certainly tried. She has a full life running her shop and creating the artsy pieces that fill its shelves. If she can just stay busy, she’ll keep her hurt and regret at bay. But when her ex-fiancé returns to Muir Harbor, he brings news that shatters her carefully built walls. Things only get worse when lurking danger comes calling at her childhood home.

The one bright spot amid Indi’s turmoil is the shy stranger who wandered into her shop months ago and his moody but lovable sister. As she confronts her past and the mysterious threat facing her family, she’s intent on helping Philip win over his sister. He just might win over Indi, too, if they can overcome old secrets and wounds, outrun rising peril . . . and take a chance on love.

Breathtaking romance, a captivating mystery, and an enchanting wintry seaside . . . return to Muir Harbor in bestselling author Melissa Tagg’s latest.

Book Review:

If you love clean, inspirational romance, you have to read Melissa Tagg’s books. She writes the best meet-cute scenes, and the one in A Seaside Wonder is absolutely my favorite.

There is so so much I loved about this book! If you read the author’s notes and acknowledgements at the end of the book, you’ll see how much she struggled with A Seaside Wonder. How often do we doubt ourselves, and often do we forget that God’s timing is perfect? I believe that in all of the struggling Tagg went through, God was just waiting for the perfect time to give her the words for this story. The struggles that the characters experience are most likely ones we’ve all had. So, I really believe that through all of the doubts she experienced and struggling she had, God gave her the right story for right now. When you read this book, you’ll not only get a heartwarming, funny, beautiful book, I think you’ll hear God talking to you through at least one character (and their struggles) to whom you can relate.

Though this is book 2 in the Muir Harbor series, it can be read and completely enjoyed on its own. But, like I said earlier, I think you should read all of Melissa Tagg’s books! There is an element that runs through the series, but it’s explained enough in this book for you to catch up. So I highly recommend reading this book.

Book Review: The One You Want

One week, two friends, secrets revealed, and a wedding gone wrong. With the drama of Colleen Hoover, the romantic tension of Lori Foster, and the page-turning power of Jill Shalvis, New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Ryan returns in this deliciously unforgettable novel.

Sometimes weddings bring the worst surprises…Growing up, Rose fled her family home—and a dangerous father—vowing never to return. But Rose is back in Carmel, California, with two goals: to joyfully act as maid of honor for her best-friend-forever Maggie and to reunite and rebuild her relationships with her mother and sister. And she can’t wait to finally meet the groom-to-be.

But when Maggie excitedly introduces her to Marc, Rose is horrified. He’s the man Rose spent one lust-fueled but disastrous night with a year ago. Rose and Maggie have shared every secret…but Rose isn’t sure she can reveal this one. To complicate the situation, Rose makes an instant connection with Gray, Marc’s best man and cousin.

And as the big day approaches, the secret weighs heavy upon Rose. It was a whirlwind courtship, but Maggie seems so sure she’s found the one she wants. Now Rose faces the biggest dilemma of her life: Should she tell Maggie and Gray the truth and risk losing them? What if it’s best to leave things alone? Then again, what if her friend is making the biggest mistake of her life?

Book Review:

The One You Want by Jennifer Ryan
Rose and Gray’s story – This book is a family drama (hers) and (his), some laughs, some tears, some very mean actions, and plenty of steam to get us to a very HEA. If you enjoy friendships fiction this book should top your list- Enjoy! Lisa

Speed and physical contact; something ice hockey is known for. Especially when it comes to the members of Rime Fire MC. They fight hard but even harder off the ice. A solid team, a brotherhood, playing this game they call life where there’s more at stake than the puck hitting the net.

Axton – As team captain and the vice president of Rime Fire MC, I have a lot on my plate, but nothing is more important than getting a second chance with the woman who rocked my world two months ago. One phone call changes everything. It’s time to step up and claim her as mine, especially when there’s a killer out for revenge.

Regina – One chance encounter brings Axton into my life and while it ended in disaster, it doesn’t compare to the tragedy that strikes two months later. All my life I’ve felt alone and invisible, but the hot hockey playing biker is persistent in showing me exactly what I mean to him. Even when life itself hangs in the balance.

A love of a lifetime. Two weeks at a time. 

Reliving the same summer romance at an annual timeshare turns first love into first hate.

Evie Turner and Adam Pierce start off with the perfect summer romance, but when they reunite five years later, he acts like she is wet sand on the bottom of his expensive shoes.

After his words sting like jellyfish, she wants him on his knees, begging for forgiveness. Begging for her. Hurt and embarrassed, Evie dedicates her two weeks at the timeshare each year to making him regret his decision. Throughout their young adult years, she tortures him—in a bikini.

The girl in love with love. The boy who watches mob movies to remind himself that trust means betrayal. A clock of two weeks ticks away until they spend another three hundred and fifty-one days trying to forget each other. Until next year.

As the passion between them rises with the summer temperature, Evie can’t help but feel his embraces are like a sunset: beautiful and temporary.

Above all, Evie must not forget one very important lesson: If he is hot, he can burn you. Better get the aloe. 

*Though this book begins in young adulthood, it transitions with summer time-jumps until the characters are new adults in college. As a new adult romance novel, the story contains mature situations and sexual scenes.

Synopsis for Rise of a King, Book One

Forevers don’t exist when you’re on the run.

Amelia cannot get attached—not to the town or the people in it.

And definitely not to the tall, dark, and handsome mafia prince who sweet-talks his way past her carefully built walls.

Why put yourself through that, knowing it’ll all be ripped away when you leave?

And she will have to leave.

This life isn’t hers to keep.

Sam calls her Snow, like the fairy-tale princess.

But her life is far from a fairy tale.

Even a prince can’t change that.

For Sam Beneventi, there’s a difference between his family and The Family.

He’s been raised to one day take control of The Family, putting that above all else.

Strength and power are all that matter.

Weakness isn’t an option. It’s an excuse. And Sam never makes excuses.

Until his future walks into his life and blows it up with one single bullet.

When the lost princess stumbles into this mafia prince’s city, all bets are off.

And Amelia is all he sees.

To keep her safe, it’s time for Sam to take control.

To take the throne.

To wear the crown.

It’s time for the Rise of the King.
