The Way We Fell

Ben and Kendall, part one. (Brand new part of the Legacy world) One brilliant smile, and my heart beat for what felt like the very first time. One night as he held my sister and sang to her, it broke. Years later, his smile is different, and I curse my heart when it beats in an all too familiar way, a way it’s only ever beat for him... again. He was once hers, could he ever truly be mine?

Rebecca Brooke

Ring Me

I am not a bully. At least not anymore. I’d learned my lesson even before I had all my dreams ripped away. Then I saw her. I knew I wanted her to be mine. I made so many mistakes, but she let me in and gave me her heart. Now I want to keep it forever. How do I ask the woman of my dreams to spend the rest of her life with me? Simple, just ask. At least I thought it would be that easy.

This is a huge analogy of stories written by some great authors. Its a fundraiser for Liver Cancer and is definitely worth supporting this great cause.

 

I did not read the whole book but I read some stories and I truly loved them. So are new stories but highlight a series the author has previously written a main book for.

 

Here are some of my favorites

Whiskey & Roses

You met Rhett and Saylor in Hey, Whiskey. My outlook on life has changed in the last fifteen years. I now have a husband and a family I can lean on. I’ve paved my own path, but they’ve traveled it with me. Not a single day have I regretted my choice to make this small town in West Virginia my home. We’ve built a life here and raised our kids here. Now here we are fifteen years later, and I’m about to show my wife that even after all these years, she’s all I see.

 

This was a short and sweet story for fans of  Hey Whiskey. It takes place 15 years later and we get a glimpse into the main characters crazy life with kids and teens.

 

Kathy Coopmans

Pure Rose

Meet Rose and Owen in this short sexy story about two single parents in their forties.Think Cinderella meets Prince Charming Opposites really do attract.

 

This is a really terrific tory maybe even my top favorite. It features two single parents whose kids date and that introduces them. They are both older in their 40's and its a very erotic story. Its also fairly shot as both characters are in love already but Rose doesn't think she is enough for Owen.

  

Adriana Locke

Crush

Delaney McCallister isn’t looking for a date. She just wants clean pajamas so she can go back home, flop on the couch, and relax. As the spin cycle begins, in walks the most delectable man she’s ever seen—one that clearly doesn’t belong in her small town. She doesn’t belong in his bed, either, but a simple little crush never hurt anyone. 

 

This was a fun story. It takes part in the author's series The Gibson Boys and Delaney is the best friend of Sienna. Its abut a hot guy she meets at the a laundromat. It ends after they hook up and while I enjoyed it I wanted a more complete story and to see more of the characters.

  

Julie A. Richman

Reunion

Two high school besties.Two ex-boyfriends.A 10-year high school reunion.An unexpected surprise revealing a long-kept secretThere are just some nights you’ll never forget…

 

I really liked this story. Its about two besties who go to their reunion. One is married and pregnant and the other is single and goes to tell off her ex. At the reunion she sees this guy who had a crush on her way back when and they get to know each other again.

 

 HJ Bellus 

Coming Home

The My Way Gang is back together. Annie has news to break to her dad, Cree. Life on the farm will never be the same. 

 

This is a new author for me. And it was kinda different. Its about a girl coming home from college and her boyfriend got her pregnant and she has to tell her family. Its more about her facing her new life and giving a chance to her high school boyfriend and moving on from her awful ex. I did enjoy it though it felt a little short and rushed.

Mine to Protect

Austin and Scarlette come together in a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat to the very end.

 

I LOVED this story soooooooo much. But I wanted to read more about this couple and how they fell in love but could not find anything on the authors page. Austin and Scar are in love and in this story she meets his family and also a woman tries to come between this couple. I loved their relationship SO much.
