Barefoot Beach Debbie Mason- Harmony Harbor

Description:

Can a summer of love make up for a lifetime of secrets?

Wedding fever has taken over Harmony Harbor this summer, and the local matchmakers have set their sights on Theia Lawson, a former navy pilot who's in town for a stay at Greystone Manor. And while Theia's got her reasons to put this small town behind her as fast as she can, there's a certain tall, dark, and irresistible man that she can't seem to get off her mind.

Firefighter Marco DiRossi wants to beat the matchmakers at their own game so he conspires with Theia to pretend they've already fallen in love. It's only for the summer. What could go wrong? Yet as the beach season draws to a close, Marco and Theia find their pretend relationship has led to very real attraction. But when a secret from the past is revealed, jeopardizing everything they hold dear, can this unlikely couple find their way to a happily-ever-after?

My thoughts on the book:

 Whenever I get my hands on a Debbie Mason book I never know what fun things she will have in store. I loved this book so much, I really love the Gallaghers and the Greystone Manor, they are a fun group of people. I really liked Marco he seemed like a fun guy with a good heart. I think both Theia and Marco both in a way faced issues from their past but each had a way of facing it either head on or in a round about way but either way the book was super emotional and got right to the heart. I loved everything about this book, such a sweet read. There was some suspense to the book which made it a total pager turn and well worth the read. You really can go wrong with this fun read . 

I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley. I was under no obligation to post a review and have given my honest opinion

The Corner of Holly and Ivy Debbie Mason -A Harmony Harbor #7

Description:
Sometimes love is just around the corner . . .

With her dreams of being a wedding dress designer suddenly over, Arianna Bell isn't expecting a holly jolly Christmas. Instead, her heart feels about three sizes too small. That is until her high school sweetheart Connor Gallagher returns to town and she finds his mere presence still makes her pulse race. But just when she starts dreaming of kissing under the mistletoe, he announces that he will be her opponent in the upcoming mayoral race....

Hot-shot attorney Connor Gallagher has something to prove. He's tired of playing runner-up to his high-achieving brothers. So when the opportunity to enter the campaign comes up, he takes it. Even if it means running against the only woman he's ever loved. But with a little help from Harmony Harbor's local matchmakers and a lot of holiday cheer, Connor and Arianna may just get the happy ever after they both deserve.

My thoughts on the book:

I love Debbie Mason's books she has away of getting to the heart of the matter no matter what. In this book you will not be disappointed she has away of bring out the laughter, the tears and getting to the heart of everything. I loved how this brought back the Gallagher family. I love Colleen when she appears in the book you know you can expect something fun is going to be said or done. In this book it follows the journey of Connor and Arianna and what happens next in there lives. I loved Helen in this book in a lot of ways she reminded me of Colleen you just never knew what was going to happen next with her. This book will guarantee that you will laugh its a good clean read and they do discuss some tough subjects but it will put you in the perfect Christmas spirit anytime of the year. This book I found hard to put down it seemed to just fly by. I can't wait to see what is next for this fun town of Harmony Harbor.

Description:
"Heartfelt and delightful!" -RaeAnne Thayne, New York Times bestselling author


Romance writer Julia Landon knows how to write a happily-ever-after. Creating one for herself is a whole different story. But after a surprising--and surprisingly passionate--kiss under the mistletoe at Harmony Harbor's holiday party last year, Julia thought she might have finally found her very own chance at true love. Until she learns her Mr. Tall, Dark, and Broodingly Handsome has sworn off relationships. Well, if she can't have him in real life, Julia knows just how to get the next best thing....


Aidan's only priority is to be the best single dad ever. And this year, he plans to make the holidays magical for his little girl, Ella Rose. But visions of stolen kisses under the mistletoe keep dancing in his head, and when he finds out Julia has written him into her latest novel, he can't help imagining the possibilities of a future together. Little does he know, though, Julia has been keeping a secret that threatens all their dreams. Luckily, 'tis the season for a little Christmas magic.

The Harmony Harbor series: 

Mistletoe Cottage

Christmas with an Angel (short story)

Starlight Bridge

Primrose Lane

Sugarplum Way

Driftwood Cove

Sandpiper Shore

My thoughts on the book:

Julia is Christmas all wrapped up in one. She has a lot on her plate but keeping busy helps with the secrets she's keeping and her thoughts on the task at hand. But the question is how much longer can she keep these and protect those she cares so much about. Aidan is home and he needs to figure out what to do. He has to find out what Julia is really up to he knows there it more then meets the eye but it seems no one has anything bad to say about her. Can he get to the bottom of everything or will things come to light and change everything for everyone?

I really love reading this series I just can't seem to get enough. I love the closeness of the family and how not matter what life throws at them they come together and get through it. I really love GG and her crazy antics. I really loved how in this a lot more things came to light making a lot more sense for other things in other books. I really Enjoyed Julia and her strong family and there no none sense ways that seem extreme sometimes. They fit in with the Gallagher's and Harmony Harbor perfectly. The story was super sweet and puts you in the Christmas Spirit  it really is a fun read and I had a hard time putting the book down. This book is so worth the read. I really hope there is more to come with this town and these fun characters.

Primrose Lane Debbie Mason Harmony Harbor #3

Description:
Love is the best medicine
Olivia Davenport has finally gotten her life back together. She's left her painful past behind, started over in a new town, and become Harmony Harbor's most sought-after event planner. But her past catches up to her when Olivia learns that she's now guardian of her ex's young daughter. With her world spinning, Olivia must reconcile her old life with her new one. And she doesn't have time for her new next door neighbor, no matter how handsome he is.

Olivia may act like she's got everything under control, but Dr. Finn Gallagher knows a person in over her head when he sees one. He'd really like to be the shoulder she leans on, but Olivia makes it clear she doesn't want his help. Since he's returned to town, his waiting room has been full of single women feigning illness. Yet the one woman he's interested in is avoiding him. But with a little help from some matchmaking widows and a precocious little girl, Finn might just win Olivia over.

My thoughts on the book:
Olivia has been keeping a big secret from her new friends and painful past she would rather leave in the past. When the day is looming and she is forced to come face to face with the past. Can she deal with the past and seek out a future with her ex's daughter, or does someone else have other plans? Finn is home recovering from an injury, if he can just stay away from Olivia he just might be able to get back to Congo and the work there. He is still dealing with the past and it seems his family has other plans for him. Can he heal and get back to being a Dr. or will his family get their way when his healing is in question?
I love this series. I really enjoy these characters, the family and close friends who seem to become like family. This book doesn't disappoint with Olivia dealing with a past and some secrets that she would rather keep in the past the author keeps you guessing on whats going to happen next. There are twist and turns throughout this book with both Olivia and Finn. I like (or I am assuming) how the author is already building up at the end for the next book. I did not like Finn at first but he quickly grows on you.  I enjoy Colleen and Jaspers they are my favorite. There is some strong language in the book while minimal the book over all is super fun.  The other thing I like about this book as well as the other books in the series is there is an element of suspense to the book its not the whole story line but there is something always brewing in the back ground, your waiting to see where that is going to come into play next along the way and keeps you guess in a whole other way. I can't wait for more from this author.

Starlight Bridge Debbie Mason Harmony Harbor Series book #2

Description:

A second chance for romance...

Hidden in Graystone Manor is a book containing all the dark secrets of Harmony Harbor, and Ava DiRossi is determined to find it. No one-especially not her ex-husband, Griffin Gallagher-can ever discover what really tore her life apart all those years ago.

But what's never changed are the sexy sparks of attraction between Ava and Griffin, and he won't give her up again without a fight. He knows there's the real possibility of a future together... if the truth doesn't burn the bridge between them forever.

My thoughts on the book:

Griffin is called back home to help fix up the inn he wants nothing to do with he sees there is a lot more to just fixing up the inn and he still believes they all would be better off fixing it up. He also keeps running into his ex-wife and memories he would rather leave in the past and move on with his life. When he discovers a secret he is not happy and he doesn't know it he should fix it to let it go. 
Ava has a huge secret from her past she would rather leave there but she also has some secrets in her life today she would rather keep private to and it seems that the secrets are all becoming to much to handle. When she is faced dealing with her ex husband, his ex wife and trying to help save the inn people start to wonder more about the secrets she hiding. Will she be able to continue to protect everyone and her heart?
What a fun book. I remember reading the first book and this book was just a fun. Some of the characters are off the charts but they add perfect to the story. If your like me You have a love hate relationship with Lexi and Jasper. I love the huge part they played in this book but I also loved Colleen and a few other characters. There is some language but its very mild other wise this book is a super fun read. I had a hard time putting this book down it truly sucks you in and before you know it your half way through, it has some twist and turns and its over all fun.

WOW just WOW, when I first open this book I wasn't how short it was and since it was short how much of a story can be told. But this author did not disappoint. This book was small but packed for of a wonderful storyline. The book leaves you wanting more not in a bad way. I hope there is more to come of these two characters and this is not the end of them. I would so recommend this book its short, sweet, to the point, and packed full of action. Seriously worth the read.

Left homeless by a fire, she's forced to go back to the small coastal town that harbors a million secrets, including her own. Sophie sees this secret reflected every day in her daughter's blue eyes-and she must keep it hidden from the only man she has ever loved.

Sophie is running from a past she would like to keep there, however it seems that she is going home to where it all started. She discovers things aren't as they seem. When she gets a job things start to go haywire and she needs to change the inn around and keep everyones secrets hidden in the inn even though it seems that someone seems to want it more.

I have a love hate relationship with this book, I really loved the story, I hate that I have to wait for more from this group of characters. I really enjoyed that "mystery" of the book and how it keeps you guessing and leaves you wanting more. I really enjoyed how stubborn Sophie was and it seems that the author wrote some cryptic hints into the storyline and leaves you wondering whats next. I really can't wait for the next story in this series and I know for sure I will be following these fun characters for sure. If you are looking for a fun christmas story with lots are crazy fun characters then grab this book you will not regret it.

Happy Ever After in Christmas Debbie Mason

What's the book about:
It's beginning to look a lot like love . . .

As her thirtieth birthday approaches, deputy Jill Flaherty decides it's time to live a little. When she walks into Sawyer Anderson's bar in her sexiest dress, she's not thinking that he's her brother's best friend or about the many women he dated during his years as a pro hockey player. All she's thinking is that it's finally time to confess to her longtime crush how she truly feels.

Sawyer is done being a player on and off the ice. Yet no one in the small town of Christmas seems to believe he's ready to settle down, not Jill, and certainly not Jack, who is determined to keep Sawyer from breaking his little sister's heart. But as Sawyer and Jill's relationship heats up, can he prove that he's her happy ever after?

My thoughts on the book:

Jill is getting ready for her 30th birthday and it ready to make some big changes in her life. Her friends encourage her to make a vision board and to place all her goals onto it. She wants what everyone around her has a family of her own an husband a good job and most of all a baby. But she wonder if she ever going to be good enough to find that person, she has had her eyes on one person and knows theres no way that is going to happen so when she sets out to find someone she realizes its not as easy as it seems. Sawyer is at a place in his life where he is ready to settle down but being in his home town and being known as a player is not always easy in the search to find MRS. right. His best friend doesn't think he's good enough for his sister Jill and Sawyer wants to see if there is something there. But will Sawyer be able to convince Jack and Jill that his heart is in the right place and he does want happily ever after or will he blow it big time and loose them both?
I really, really enjoyed this book I enjoyed I loved the heart of the story and the author does an amazing way of drawing you in and makes you feel like your more part of the story then just reading the story. There is a part in the book without giving anything away, the situation is so emotional and the raw emotions of the situations are captured so well by the author and put on to paper to just jump out to the reader. I fell in love with Nell she has away of staying in the back ground but letting her presence be known. There are some adult situations in the book as well as strong language so this book is not suitable for all readers. I would highly recommend this book to my friends this book is so well worth the read and the purchase.

Christmas in July Debbie Mason

What's the book about:

Grace Flaherty had given up hope of ever seeing her husband again. After all, it'd been over a year since he went missing in combat. So when he strides through the door of her bakery in downtown Christmas one sunny afternoon, she can hardly believe her eyes. But her happily-ever-after is going to take some effort - because Jack has no memory of his family.

All Jack Flaherty remembers about Christmas is that he couldn't wait to leave town. Now he's a local hero with a wife and son he doesn't know. Even as he struggles to rekindle the romance with his wife, he knows in his heart what he wants: a second chance at love.

 

 

 

My Thoughts on the book:

The book starts off really good and stays that way till the end I don't think there is a dull moment in this book, it keeps you wanting more. Right as I thought the book was ending the author would through another curve ball. Over all the story line was well written and very cute. She does a tribute to out men and women who serve and as an American who comes from a military family that means a lot to me. I think that only thing that is different about this book is it seemed like after one crisis was down another happened but if you think about that's how life works its not all fairy tales and everything is perfect, but for some readers you are so use to having everything be so "put together" in a book and in this case I love how the author did not do that, so over all the book was amazing and I cannot wait to read more from this author.

 

I got a free copy of this book from Netgalley for my honest option.
