Falling Inn Love, Baked Inn Love & All Inn Thyme

5 Stars

Review:

Falling Inn Love was amazing! The location and Inn are so cozy feeling and I love the fall season in New England. The characters all had a great meaning to feel of the novel and would not have been the same without them. This book was frustratingly good and I love how mad and happy it made me throughout the story. I am so excited to read the next book!

Synopsis:

Perfect cozy fall vibes book that reads like a Hallmark movie…
Former military hero, found family, Inn life, puppies, forced proximity, fated soul mates, redemption, orphan, widow.

Beth is a struggling romance author who’s been trying to find her place in the world after the unbearable tragedy of losing her family. Unable to find peace other than in her writing, she ends up stranded by the side of the road in Freedom Valley, New Hampshire, where a strikingly hot, green-eyed, bearded flannel wearing innkeeper rescues her.

Evan, a former marine who took over his family’s inn after the sudden loss of his father, is struggling to keep afloat.

Running out of money, Beth agrees to help Evan run the inn in exchange for room and board, but she has no intention of staying too long and letting her guard down or anyone into her heart.

But there’s something about Beth that makes Evan believe he can be the man to give her the love that she deserves.

The more emotional walls Beth tries to put up, the harder Evan works to tear them down, using everything he can, including a pair of puppies he finds abandoned by the side of the road, to make her want to stay.

Will Evan be able to convince Beth to take a second chance at love?

*Falling Inn Love is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Falling Inn Love as the characters and families are connected.*

Review:

I can’t even say how much I loved this book like the first one! They are equally great and I can’t wait to work with Erin in her newest book in the series! This love story was the perfect small-town romance and the Inn is just a lovely place with amazing people and family! So excited for the rest of the series! 

Synopsis:

Friend’s to lovers, fake marriage, epic road trip, millionaire, single parent, different worlds.

Things have been rough for frazzled single-mom Allie. The only bright light in her life is her son, four-year-old Caleb, who’s now healthy after a lifetime of being chronically ill. She finally feels like she can breathe again. Until she’s unexpectedly fired from her job. On top of that, Caleb’s previously absent father decides he wants to fight Allie for custody. And if she can’t prove she can support herself, he might just win custody of Caleb. Based in San Diego, with her only support system in Freedom Valley, New Hampshire, Allie needs to find a way to move herself and Caleb across the country to their family inn.

Enter Logan Nolan, a handsome, successful literary agent. The best friend of her brother’s fiance, Beth, Logan comes from an extremely wealthy, not-so-great family in Canada that he’s estranged from. When Beth begs him to help bring Allie and Caleb home, he can’t say no.

After an awkward start, they embark on an epic cross-country road trip in a moving truck, where they become fast friends and realize they each have something to offer the other. A marriage of convenience that could never be real for one of them.

Once the shock of their spontaneous marriage wears off with the family, Allie and Logan settle into a new life in Freedom Valley. Allie, who’s always been a passionate baker, starts her own business, and Logan learns how to balance a busy career and the new family they’re pretending to be.

Logan never saw himself as a family man, but as he spends more time with Allie and Caleb and gets to know them better, he wonders if his resistance to being a parent before has anything to do with poor role models and that maybe having a family of his own is something he might actually desire after all. As for Allie, she’s always gotten by on her own, but with Logan around, she’s starting to realize maybe this make-believe temporary life she’s building with this new friend is something she may want to be permanent, especially as Caleb’s father’s efforts to take his son intensify.

Will Allie and Logan realize and give in to their true feelings for each other and let love carry them through?

Baked Inn Love is a complete stand-alone and can be read without reading any of the other books, but if you prefer to read in order, start with Falling Inn Love as the characters and families are connected.

Review:

Another great small town romance in the Freedom Valley series! I love that all the books have interconnections between the characters and this book did not disappoint! It truly is a wonderful series!

Synopsis:

He’s Freedom Valley’s blue-collar hottie. I’m the housekeeper at the Golden Gable Inn, obsessed with gardening and creating a simple life for my son and me. He’s a mechanic by trade, so he fixes things. He tried to fix me, but it turns out we needed to fix each other. . .

When I said “I do” five years ago, I was young and had no idea the nightmare I was walking into.

When I finally escaped my husband with my young son, we ended up at an idyllic family-owned New England inn, living under new names and building a life that was safe and happy with new friends that became like family to us. I thought had figured out a way to make our lives beautiful and happy again.

Then I met Ty, the sexy and charming yet protective mechanic who didn’t seem to mind my complicated past. But then we unexpectedly ended up housemates, and he became everything I never knew I wanted or needed.

Like any good mechanic, he’s good at fixing broken things, and he’s been hard at work fixing my heart.

He showed us what a real family could be like and fixed the family he didn’t break.

And now, I can’t imagine our lives without him.

Only it turns out we both may have something to hide.

When secrets surface and truths are revealed, can our hearts be rebuilt?
