Shattered Expectations (Shattered #3) by Octavia Wildwood

In the last review I told you I felt like something bad was going to happen, and well my gut was right!

As you know Nate proposed to Amanda, but when her twin brothers call saying there is an emergency, she must make the hard decision to go back home despite all of her fears. Thankfully she has Nate to be by her side. But that can also be a problem...

Once he sees where she is from, meets her parents, and her ex, she is afraid he will be like all the rest and not believe her. And omg, how could her parents be so cruel! How could any parent be like that? 

I don't want to spill to much of what happens, but know that you shouldn't ever judge a book by its cover because a snake could live inside the most beautiful person. Everything that happens delays the wedding, but it still goes on, and it is absolutely gorgeous! 

This is a 5 star for me! I absolutely loved this book! It has so much meaning and emotions into it. Everything is finally revealed about Amanda, and it makes this story that much better!

Shattered Dreams (Shattered #2) by Octavia Wildwood

We get a little bit of Nate Avery's story in Shattered Hearts, but in Shattered Dreams we get a better understanding of him and why he is the way he is. 

Nate is hard on the outside but for those who have the pleasure of getting to know him he is the gentlest and most kind cowboy you could want. He is very protective of the ones he loves and is stubborn and hard working, he thinks he has to do it all himself.

After his parents died, he took over the family farm, quitting the rodeo because he feels it's his fault for their death. He can't even get up on A horse anymore. He tries to keep the farm going and also send his little sister Maggie to college all by himself. But it is an impossible task.

His and Amanda's relationship becomes known to Maggie and she couldn't be happier. Nate tries to get back in the rodeo to gather money to save the farm but gets injured badly. Thanks to neighbors, his sister and Amanda, he soon realizes how much people are willing to do for him. 

While he is recovering his and Amanda's relationship escalates and the way he proposes is absolutely amazing and had me in tears. 

I have a bad feeling something is going to go wrong in the next book, but again I have yo read to find out, but I so hope for a happily ever after for them! This is a fast read but keeps getting better the more I get into this series. I give this a 5 star steamy cowboy romance!

Broken Dreams(Broken Series 2) by Kelly Elliott

He put his hand on the side of my face and whispered, "I told you, I make it my business to know everything about you, to know everything you love, and try to make you feel safe and happy."
 
 
As Courtney would say Reed is so swoon worthy!! In Broken you knew that Reed and Courtney belonged together but because of their past they were fighting it, but you can only fight your heart for so long before you follow it! Once Reed and Courtney finally get together they tell each other stuff that was keeping them apart. Both Reed and Courtney had something bad happen to them but they help pull each other out of the darkness.
 
You better be ready for a funny and fast ride because they move super fast since they had been in love with each other for so long. Broken Dreams is all about true love and how you bring the best out of each other. I love Gunner from Kelly's Wanted series but Reed replaced him as my favorite book boyfriend from her books. If you love cowboys and small town country life style books then this 5 star book is for you!!
 
Happy Reading

Faithful (Wanted series #3) by Kelly Elliott

I was on the verge of tears multiple times during this book. Faithful is my favorite book of the series so far. At the end of Saved Josh was in a accident. When he wakes up he don't remember who Heather is or that he was madly in love with her. To make matters worse Josh's ex is his nurse and she is trying everything she can to come in between Josh and Heather.

Will Josh get his memory back and have his happily ever after with Heather? I am not going to ruin it for you lol you will have to read to find out! Lets just say they go through a lot! During Faithful we get some of Brad and Amanda's story and I can't wait to read their short novella next. We are also set up for Scott and Jess's story. At the end of this book I wanted to kick Scott's ass.

I love this series because of the groups friendship. It reminds me of my best friends and I hope we stay as close as the gang in this book as we gett older. Faithful is full of drama, laughs, and emotional moments that will break your heart. I rate this book with a 5 out of 5 stars!

Loving Cara by Kristen Proby

I have been excited for this to come out because I love the With Me In Seattle Series by Kristen. In Loving Cara we start out meeting Josh first. Josh has taken over his family's ranch when one day his twin brother's wife drops their son Seth off and tells them she has asked for a divorce and don't want Seth anymore. Josh's brother is in the army so he is not in the states at the time.

 This is where we meet Cara. Seth failed every class in school so Josh hires Cara to be his summer tutor. Josh and Cara went to school together when they were younger. Cara always had a crush on Josh but her insecurities always made her think that Josh would never like her like that. Little did Cara know that Josh thinks she is beautiful and smart. 

They get together and Josh helps her get over her insecurities. After a misunderstanding and Josh being an ass when he gets scared Cara leaves and he has to chase after her so they can have their happily ever after. I loved this story and give it 4 out of 5 stars. If you love cowboys and a good love story this is definitely a book that you want to read. I wish Josh's twin brother's book was next but Ty's book is coming out first in August (he is a tattooed lawyer so I don't mind lol).

Hanging On (Jessica Brodie Diaries) by K.F. Breene

This series just keeps getting better, and I love it!!

In the first book Jessica was having a hard time finding her place in TX since she moved from LA. Things were difficult at first, she missed her friends but made new ones...including Adam, William's best friend. Adam treats Jessica like a sister, at first he did like her, but she only had eyes for William.

Things are going great for Jessica in this book, her job is prospering, she and William are together....she just misses her girls and also needs to find a way to make William's mom like her, since she isn't from money and that is all this small town knows. But she handles her own.

Finally William suggests to Gladis that Jessica needs her friends and they show up unexpectedly. These girls are crazy! Lump decides she will stay with Jessica in TX and find a job, etc. Adam knows exactly how to push her buttons. And with Lump knowing martial arts she lays it into Adam, but I believe there is a spark somewhere underneath all that pain in both of them.

When I say this has cowboys in it, there are some cowboys, yes, they come from money, but these are real men who work on their ranches, and William breeds bulls! Both Jessica and Lump manage to ride a small steer.

I found myself laughing at so many things in this book along with crying too. It's a great read. And I give it 4 stars. From the first book to this one, Jessica blossoms. I can't wait to read the third!

Back in the Saddle (Jessica Brodie Diaries) by K.F. Breene

Back in the Saddle (Jessica Brodie Diaries) by K.F. BreeneBack in the Saddle (Jessica Brodie Diaries) 


Have you ever wanted a fresh new start? Brand new scenery? A new chance in the world?

Well Jessica gets it when she moves from L.A. to Tartin Creek, TX. She is just out of college and lands an accounting job with a great company. Little does she know this place she moves to is made of money.

Gladis is Jessica's landlady of whom she rents the pool house from. She is a wild cat for sure. Takes Jessica under her wings and becomes a great friend.

Then there is Apollo, the Greek God.... William Davies. Pure cowboy but with a wealthy background. There is an attraction between them, but it takes forever for him to act on it. 

Jessica has made a few friends, but she really misses her L.A. Friends when it seems nothing goes right. And believe me, she has a rough time starting out in TX. 

Just when she decides she is going to leave is when William finally comes clean with how he feels.

The one problem, she isn't made of money and his mom doesn't like it. 

Let the battles begin in the 2nd book..

4 star rating :) -xoxo-T
