Love Square Blog Stop

 

A love triangle gone bad...

He was the one guy I couldn't get enough of. One look from him would make me melt. He was the one I always wanted to love me, but always seemed so far away. Now he stands before me and he's turning my world upside down.

At one time I would have done anything to be close to him. But will that anything include betraying the man I pledged myself to and that loves me faithfully?

Samantha Monroe had it all. Or at least everyone thought she did. A career on the rise, a gorgeous husband, great friends and a beautiful home. So why does she feel so alone and empty? When she reconnects with an old flame, lines are tested and compromises made in a quest for happiness.

Jacob Matthews always wondered what happened to Sam Monroe. When fate brings them together after all these years, he can't help but wonder if it’s meant to be. But when he meets his perfect woman, there is no doubt in his mind she's his soul mate.

Will the search for happiness cost them everything or will their love square show them what really matters?


I had waited MONTHS for this story, and when the time came that I actually was able to read the book I squealed and did a little dance. I was so excited to finally read it. I absolutely loved this book! It was packed with some of my favorite things that I like in my books. It was a constant roller coaster of emotions. Constantly taking me up and then down and then straight back up, over and over again.  The first thing I learned about this book was that it was a love triangle. My oh my!!! It was a love triangle that will be stuck in my mind for a very long time. Love Square has some pretty darn sexy scenes packed in there too. Wow! They were HOT!!!!!!!

I really liked the characters in this book. They seemed so real to me. I thought it was pretty awesome that Samantha is an author. Aiden being her high school sweetheart….so sweet! Then throw in Jacob, the high school crush. You know that’s going to be an interesting love triangle.

At first, I really didn’t like Aiden all the much. He seemed quite the jerk to me. As the story unfolded, I started to feel for Aiden. I really started to like him, and then the end…….OMG!!!!! I fell so hard for that man. I really wish we could have had more of Aiden’s POV. I would really like to dive into his mind.

Let Love Stay Review

If you’re lucky, you’ll fall in love – truly, madly and deeply in love. But what happens when that honest and pure love isn’t enough to erase your fears? What happens when your past rears its ugly head and threatens your future?

Maddy and Reid had that kind of love – the all-encompassing, Earth shattering, once in a lifetime kind of love. Then life happened. Old wounds that were thought to be long healed and scabbed over are ripped opened and they are forced to face the possibility that, maybe, they are not strong enough to fight their demons and embrace the light.

Together, they found out what love is, but now they will each need to heal on their own before they can ever be together again. They must face their fears and beat down their pasts in order to find their way through this crazy uphill battle called love.

They’ve let love in, but now, they need to find out how to Let Love Stay.


 
 
After reading the first book, Let Love In, I was extremely excited to read the second one. The way the first one ended had me drooling for the next!!! I couldn’t put it down once I got my hands on it!!! I was completely in love and needed my Maddy and Reid fix.
 Reid has so many demons to deal with in this book and you get to experience the ups and downs with each one. There are times when you want to just give him the push he needs and times when you want to scream at him to not do something.
As you follow the characters through everything you can’t help but hope for the best for them. They have such an amazing love. They have both been through hell and back and the strength it took to let the other in, you just want to push them to not let go of what they have found.
 This is an amazing book and a love story in its truest form. I hope everyone who loves this kind of book and even some that don’t, get the chance to read this!!

Bare Assets Release

 
With nothing but shattered dreams and a busted heart to fuel the way, Angela Fletcher drove out of Arkansas and never looked back.
Six years later, the new and improved version of the girl she used to be steered clear of romance, love and late night promises. The only pillow talk Angela engaged in these days, was making sure the person on the other pillow knew to lose her number as soon as he left the bed. She only had room for one love in her life and that was Bare Assets, the gentleman's club she poured her heart and soul into.
Dean Murray was the devil in disguise and had left behind enough broken hearted women to populate a small country. Angela would know. She was an expert markswoman who was skillfully self-trained at shooting down the good, the bad and the ugly of all masculine targets. After all, as the owner of the most successful strip club in Dallas, Texas, it was her business to know men.
Just as she begins to fall for Dean's silky words and passionate ways, her past and present unexpectedly collide and a meticulously planned future turns into unpredictable chaos. Is the smooth talking, denim wearing devil responsible for the chaos? Or have the secrets she left buried in Arkansas, coming back to haunt her?
 
 
 

Let Love In Review

 
What would happen if you lost everything? If the people who were supposed to love you unconditionally were no longer there for you, how would your world change?

That’s exactly what happened to Madeleine Becker when her parents died when she was ten years old. Ripped from her home and everything that she has ever loved, she is forced to start all over again. The only way for her to move on is to build walls around her heart and keep everyone at a safe distance. Her logic: she can't get hurt if she doesn't fall in love.

That theory is blown to pieces when she meets Reid Connely during her freshman year at college. He is gorgeous and darkly mysterious. He understands Maddy's pain all too well, but sharing his pain would mean breaking down the walls he put up around his own heart. Conflicted between loving Maddy and hiding his dark past, Reid starts to reevaluate his world. Maddy's inner strength, snarky personality and breath taking beauty help Reid to make peace with his past.

Together they find out what happens when they Let Love In.



This book had me captivated from the beginning. I was already in tears from the first few pages. I fell in love with the characters even with all their dark secrets and pasts. Maddy shows you how it is to be strong even when life is trying to make you weak. You can feel every ounce of pain and love she goes through. You just want to reach in and tell her to keep going, that it will all be ok.

Reid, oh Reid! There is so much I could say about this vulnerable, sexy bad boy. His past makes you want to hold him and love him through it, the way he is in the beginning of the book makes you want to slap the shit out of him!! Reid and Maddy together make you want to believe in the strength of love.

 This book has many high points and low points, but it is well worth the read. I absolutely recommend this book!!!
