This is an absolute wonderful series and each book stands alone. This is the last book in the series and I am so sad its ending. The first book is definitely my favorite, the 2nd book was also a lot of fun and this book was a fun way for the series to end.

This story seemed like it would be great and I was looking forward to seeing a bunch of texting messages but it was very different than I was expecting.

Book 1 featured the playboy and black sheep, Brendan. Book 2 was the responsible, uptight CEO brother Jasper, and this book is Camden's and he is the baby brother who ran away and became a mountain man in Switzerland.

He meets a woman online and he leaves his hometown to find his online friend Daisy. He finds her very easily but he also finds out she is a single mom and he feels he should not be a dad and so he knows they can only have a fling and he does not tell her who he is. I HATED this. It felt very wrong to keep such a big thing from Cadence/Daisy.

They both end up as neighbors and work at a summer camp and that's when their romance heats up. I loved the summer camp, it was a really fun aspect of this book. I also loved seeing and catching up with the previous couples from the other books.

This is definitely not my favorite in the series but it ended the series very nicely and I enjoyed getting to know Cam.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“Where are you going? My house is in the other direction. I live in the city, not over the Bay Bridge in the East Bay.” I try the door handle, but it doesn’t work. I push my shoulder into the door, hoping it’s only stuck. I push harder, putting my whole weight into the door. It doesn’t budge. “I know where you live,” he sneers. “We’re going for a ride.” “What are you talking about? Take me back! Stop the car! Let me out!” He ignores me and doesn’t respond. When my panic levels out to an even terror, I begin to think clearly. The app documented my ride. My friends and family will look for me. I stare down at my phone. I can call 911. I dial. Nothing. I look to see how many bars are on my phone, and instead it reads “No Service.” My heart races faster than it ever has. I see the driver hold up a contraption that looks almost like a garage door opener. “This is called a cell phone jammer. No cell service for you.” My blood turns cold. I try the door again. I finally realize the child safety locks are engaged. I don’t know what to do. Holy crap. What did I get into? I verified everything when he drove up. What has set this guy off? I look frantically around me. People are busily going about their day, heading home for the evening, driving over the Bay Bridge and heading east away from San Francisco. No one looks at other drivers, too busy concentrating on the narrow lanes of the bridge and five lanes of traffic. My pulse quickens, and I begin to sweat. I’m breathing too quick and start to hyperventilate. My mind is racing. I think of Mason. I know he’ll turn over hell to find me. I think of my brother and desperately wish that my twin telepathy actually worked for once. I think of my three best friends. Emerson. I’ve known her since our freshman year at Stanford. She was so busy with the golf team and her classes that she hardly paid attention to my drama, but she quickly became a steadfast friend. Hadlee grew up next door, and when her mother died, her dad left her to be cared for by nannies as he searched through three more wives looking for a replacement. She essentially moved into my room. Greer’s mother is sick. Her father plied Greer with money so she’d stay and take care of her mother while he started a new family. Now she has a wonderful husband, and I’m sure she’ll be pregnant any minute. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to stop this. Even though we’re going over the bridge in heavy traffic, moving well below the speed limit, if I could open the door, what use would it be? We’re going too fast and the traffic is moving too quickly for me to get out. An evil, maniacal laugh comes from him. “Face it, you’re mine!” I sit back in my seat, knowing I need to think, not dwell. I close my eyes and hear the rhythm of the bridge. Bu-bump, bu-bump. I take a big breath and hold it for a count of three, then purse my lips and blow out. I do that again and again as we pass over the bridge. We head north on 80 toward Sacramento. The traffic begins to thin, and his speed increases. I need to get him talking. I need him to see me as a real person, not someone the newspapers and gossip columns have made up. “What did I ever do to you?” “You have no idea,” he growls. “I know who you are and where you work. I know all about you and your little group of friends at SHN.” Holy shit, this guy is a stalker. How did he manage to get my ride? How is it even possible? He exits the freeway and takes a four-lane road through the Contra Costa mountain range. I’m trying to keep talking while I pay attention to every turn we make. “I know all about them. Dillon thinks he’s so smart. He’s not. Cameron thinks he’s so great with computers. He’s not. Mason never liked me; he always thought he was smarter than me and that he had better business acumen. Well, I showed them.” We transition to the 680 and begin heading south on the other side of the mountains in the hot central valley. It’s almost like we’re doing a circle. Maybe he’s going to rant and rave for a while and then drop me at home. I decide to keep him talking. “How do you know Dillon, Cameron, and Mason?” “I’ve known them since we went to school together.” “When did they go to school together?” Duh. They all met at Stanford. He glosses right over my question. “We met then, too. You were all high and mighty. Mizz Caro-line Are-no. La-tee-da with your French last name and your big trust fund. You’ve never had to work a day in your life.” I need to direct him to share more about himself and not add to his craziness by defending myself. “I don’t recall meeting you. When did we meet?” “Oh, we’ve met lots of times,” he says snidely. He doesn’t elaborate and begins to mutter a little bit to himself. I try to listen to what he’s saying, but I can’t make it out. I don’t think he’s drunk, just mad. Mad as a hornet. “You guys and your little clickie-club. No one is ever good enough for you. You snub anyone who tries to break into your little group. Oh, I know all about you.” I stare at the side of his face. He doesn’t look familiar. We slow as we enter some of the larger towns on the other side of the Contra Costa mountain range. I keep watching my phone, waiting to see if I get any bars. Nothing. It’s dark now, and all I can see are headlights of the oncoming cars. It’s getting stuffy in the car. “Can we crack the window?” “No.” I begin to do my breathing exercises as we approach San Jose. I look in my bag for the water bottle I always keep there and my keys fall out. I push them out of the way as I search and then notice the safety hammer attached to my keyring. Of course! The hammer is made to break a window! We have to get off the freeway at some point. He’ll need gas eventually. I can wait. My anxiety begins to ebb. Suddenly he explodes. “Dillon is a giant pussy. He’s all about any slut who waves her snatch in front of him and then forgets everyone else around him. He goes wherever a pussy leads him.” I might as well engage him. “I don’t know if you know this, but he’s happily married and has a little boy.”

This is the last book in the series and it features Mason and Cece. I do want to mention this is a LONG series but I have only read the last book before this one and so it can stand alone. You will definitely feel lost at times but you can read it without reading the other stories.

Mason and Cece have been good friends for years but never even kissed. They have dated, had sex with and even lived with other people. In this story Mason ends up in a life and death scenario and Cece is there for him.

They are also both single at the same time and as they become roommates as well as good friends they decide to explore a relationship.

Meanwhile they both own their own companies and some bad stuff happens to their businesses and so the FBI and investigations and finding out who is after them is also a big part of the story. This might be where you get lost a little if you have not read every book in the story but I was able to follow along as things are explained well in this story.

Who the bad guys are I kinda guessed. Seemed pretty obvious to me but there were some red herrings thrown in so you don't find out the truth until the last moment. I did enjoy this book a lot and I loved the honest relationship that Cece and Mason had.

I will definitely be reading more from this author as I did enjoy her romance and stories.

I want to be the one to help her, to show her the ropes in the bedroom, and it turns out, Becca’s game to let me take a more hands-on approach.

This was by far my favorite in this series. This is book 2 but it easily stands alone. It stars two besties Becca and Owen. He is a bit of a player and she was assaulted in college and so she is a bit afraid of sex.

But she is lonely and wants to find someone and so she asks Owen if he can help her get comfortable with sex. He wants to help her and so they start a sexual relationship with the goal being her having a real adult relationship with a man.

Once they start getting sexual, they discover how hot they can be together and they slowly fall for the other. This was a wonderful best friends falling for each other story and I truly loved every second of it.

Enchanting Sebastian by Kristen Proby




 






The first in an all new stand-alone trilogy set in Kristen Proby's Big Sky world, Enchanting Sebastian will take your breath away! 

Turning thirty-five doesn’t mean much to most men. For Sebastian Wakefield, it’s the end of life as he knows it.  When your father is the King of England, thirty-five is the year that a marriage will be arranged, a suitable bride cementing a future you didn’t choose. The obvious solution for escaping the archaic laws of the throne is for Sebastian to leave the country. And where better to go than America? 
 
Nina Wolfe has spent her career avoiding scandal. As a Hollywood publicist and minor celebrity in her own right, she knows exactly what it takes to keep the media at bay—and what will send them into a frenzy. 
 
Prince Sebastian hiding out in Cunningham Falls, Montana is an unlikely story. Ending up in his bed, even more so. And keeping their arrangement out of the press might just be impossible. The ring on her finger is about to spark a firestorm that will change her life, and no professional spin will help Nina fit into the world of royalty. 
 
Only love could write an enchanting new beginning—if they’ll let themselves fall.

Kristen was born and raised in a small resort town in her beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her wings and move to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than a dozen years.
During that time, Kristen wrote many romance novels and joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She spent countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up before the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her bucket list.
Not only did she publish one book, she’s since published close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also proud to work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion Series. 
Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her hometown of Whitefish, Montana. 





This was a fun fairy tale by the author. She mentions that this is her version of royalty and her fairy tale and so she takes us to England where we meet prince Sebastien who is has been groomed as the next king. However he does not want the crown and so he runs away to Montana and more specifically Big Sky where he meets Nina.

He is entranced by her and he proposes marriage, which will make him ineligible to be king and then his brother can be king instead. Nina is very opposed to love and agrees to marry him but she says she will never fall in love.

This was a fun story of Nina being groomed as the princes bride and watching her become a part of Sebastien's life. It introduces Princess Ellie and the princes brother who the next books will be about.

There were some holes in the story, one being why Nina agrees to the whole things. She calls it a challenge and I felt she needed more motivation than a challenge to agree to marry a prince and all the headaches that come with it. I totally understood what Sebastien got but not her. That said I loved this story so much and it was sweet and romantic and so much fun that I cannot wait for more in this series.
