Review: The Other Brother

The Other Brother The Other Brother by Meghan Quinn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was such a beautiful story! It wasn't just about Aaron and Amelia and their second chance at love. It gives great background of Aaron and his life. From the very beginning you get a great sense of the kind of man he will grow up to be. Without having all of the details, his whole life (possibilities of what he dealt with) flashed in my mind. Which is why it was so great for him when he met and fell in love with Amelia. Always feeling like he is not good enough in general, and the fact that he is always trying to do what is right for everyone else is what eventually broke them up. When she got a call that her dad was getting worse in the nursing home that he was now living in she had to go to spend more time with him. And it just so happened that she ended up renting the house right next to her first love. They start to reconnect, but a relationship isn't possible since she is with another man (even though he still hasn't moved to be with her). Aaron wants her back, but he doesn't want to hurt her in the process so he decides to be her friend.

I don't think I have ever before read a book where the male character is so openly vulnerable and wearing his heart on his sleeve. Taking the chance at very serious heartbreak. Aaron is my absolute favorite in this series! He definitely made me shed more than a few tears.

  Timeless by Kaylene Winter          4.75 🌟  4 🔥 Absolutely LOVE this series!! And I am not sure if I am ready for the Encore books yet..... but I will get into them soon! This is a childhood friends to lovers story that spans decades. Both Fiona and Zane have a lot of family issues to sort through on their own and they have always been a huge support for each other.... the one thing that was always solid. Until her mom took her away claiming that Zane was going to be just like his father. These 2 go through so much to be together that I was feeling gutted through out the entire book! And I was constantly getting mad at the different obstacles that kept blocking them from their happily ever after! And when they are together..... they are HOT 🔥🔥🔥. The only thing that I was unhappy about with this book was ..... DAMMIT! When can we find out if Carter and Lianne get back together FOR GOOD?!?!?

                                                                               Stealing Heats by Lex Martin     4.25🌟 4🔥      This book was JUST what I needed!  It was hot, fast-paced, a bit of suspense, and a woman-you-love-to-hate!  Brother's best friend, but with the added angst that the brother died Rhett wants to save his family's ranch and the only way he can get a loan is to be married.  Paige needs to rehab an injury, but has no insurance to do it.  So win/win.  And then they go and let feelings get involved.  But with the way that Paige seamlessly fits right into his family with all his brothers, there was no way that feelings wouldn't come about.... not to mention the history and Paige's ch...

  Promise Me Not by Meagan Brandy          5🌟 2🔥 Definitely worth the wait! This was a SUPER SLOW BURN book! So if you are looking for spice, it isn't here!  But if you are looking for a heart felt, gut wrenching tale of love lost, then found again.... you are in the right place!  Mason was such a hot AF super alpha and was ready to take charge right away.  He knew he wanted it all and he wanted it with Payton!  Chase was sticking his meddling nose in where it didn't belong (AGAIN) and I was ready to figure out how to jump into the book just to punch him in the face!  But then look at him trying to redeem himself!  We shall see!  This story must have been a tough one for Meagan to tell.... they guilt and pain that Payton feels through out the whole book, over EVERYTHING and EVERYONE that she really has contact with.  But most of all the guilt about Deaton (the decease father of her son), Little D(eaton) and Mason. I...
