Forever Remembered

WHAT A SPECIAL TREAT......LOVED IT!! 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃

This was a truly lovely story! From the first page to the last the charm of this book, the storyline, and the beloved characters, was absolutely delightful and satisfyingly heartwarming to read. It was a wonderful treat. The romance between Knox and Quinn flowed so sweetly...it was swooney, romantic and the charisma between the two was beautifully written and leapt off the pages!. There was no angst just a lovely second chance for two old friends. I especially enjoyed how immediately everyone, family, Keeneston friends and the football team immediately celebrated and supported their relationship with gusto and their usual betting, joking, supporting friendship and love. It was so moving and joyful to read about! I love to be back in that world.. Where kindness and loyalty is in abundance. Kathleen Brooks is a master at writing books that make you feel good. She takes you to another world with every book!!

There was also an interesting and absorbing mystery and suspenseful situations where, of course, everyone stepped up to the help. I highly recommend this book. Just like all of Kathleen's wonderfully refreshing and satisfying books you will smile, laugh and feel uplifted and not want the book to end. All of our old friends and characters were there helping, commenting, and being a part of the team! I know I didn't want to leave the Keeneston crowd. They always make me wish I knew them all and as you can easily telI I totally delight in their wacky antics and traditions and you will too!! 😇

This was a motivational read

I knew Knox was pining after someone but just didn't know who. When all was revealed this story became a cute hot pursuit. Quinn, was one that stayed in her lane and moved with the flow of traffic until her football star came back and lifted her chin. Yeah, he supplied her with the resources she was afraid to tap into and showed her they were more than what meets the eye. Everyone is laid back and will have the back of those they deemed worthy. Add Helena in the mix and this was girl power personified.

The cameo of my boo Sebastian was the added bonus because he learned a life lesson real men need to change and adhere to.

Kathleen did a light action book this time and I still enjoyed it and laughed my head off. Football players are hilarious.

This book was good amazing even though I was not ready for the end of the series. Kathleen has done such an amazing job with all the Bluegrass books. I absolutely love Knox and Quinn. We met so many new characters in this book and clearly the writing is on the wall for so many books in the future! I love how the town started to merge with the football team, SA Tech, and Nico. I felt like we really came full circle with Will having been book 1 with Kenna and he was a football player, to ending with football player Knox. Plus how great is the timing with the book being released towards the end of football season!! I would give this book and the entire Forever Bluegrass series way more than 5 stars.

She's his endgame!

They fell for each other in college, but neither knew how the other felt. Knox is now older and wiser and knows that this feeling, it's a once in a lifetime feeling....Quinn is his one. And this time he will damn sure tell her how he feels.
I love that Knox and Quinn find each other again (even if they have a little help!), they are both amazing characters who don't hesitate to give to others, and who respect not only those they work with but everyone they come across.
This is Keeneston at it's best with the most amazing support cast, just the right amount of crazy antics and SO MANY BABIES! The next generation are arriving thick and fast! This is an awesome read, although I do suggest you read the series in order from the beginning, otherwise there are some references and actions that won't make sense.

I loved the ending to this series. I loved how we started in the first book with the Thoroughbreds and now are ending with it as well. So full circle, especially with the little Ryan and Sienna update in it. Now on to Knox and Quinn. I love that he is down to earth and clearly a leader that his teammates look up to. He is so sure of himself that when he meets Quinn again, he is not going to miss this second chance at being with her. He is supportive and caring, which she needs in her male dominated field and with an ex who is an a-hole and so his her ex-team. I love, love, love this book. The ending almost made me cry, so special and sweet for Coach Kate!

Forever Remembered

Forever Keenston. Ms. Brooks has a magical way to bring her stories to life in that while reading one of her books you are transported to her land of Keenston and made to feel as if you are part of the family.

Knox and Quinn got to know each other in college but then went their separate ways. Since reconnecting, Quinn finds herself with trouble that only the Keenston crew can help with. As Knox and Quinn work to clear her name, the love they had in college, but never admitted to, only grows. Will Keenston be able to clear Quinn in time for her and Knox to find their happily ever after?

Quinn was the one that Know never forgot and for Quinn, Knox would be the standard for any man that came into her life, because he was the ONE.
They met in college when she was his tutor and he was the star QB and she was not seen or so she thought. Knox saw and even though he wanted more, he never pushed. Stayed at her pace. And then their college days were over and they went their separate ways. She knew that she would never see him again. He went into professional football and she into the world of programing but never say never.
When her new assignment puts her in his path, those feelings that never went away for each other rose up like a herd of Thunderbirds and when her career is threatened and someone is trying to sabotage her program, Knox is going to be her knight in shining football gear and find out who. And as she has become one of the Kneeneton family, she has the protection of the whole town. The Rose Sister along with, with the Royal Family at Desert Sun Farms, football coaches, players and all those specialized folks that can save the day, truth will prevail.
And of course the chemistry between Knox and Quinn could set the town ablaze... And the town betting app working overtime.
What a fitting end for this series. I love Knox and Quinn. Their past put them a path for a happy ever after. Kathleen Brooks books make me smile, laugh out loud, sigh and shed a few tears and cheer for the good guys who will put the world to rites and make sure the world is a safer place to be.

Knox and Quinn get a second chance to get it right. They both had feelings for each other in college, but each was too scared to go for it. Now she's in Keeneston to work in her new job with Nico. Knox is the starting QB for the Thoroughbreds. His father is the coach and he is out to prove that he got this job fair and square. Quinn realizes that something is not right with the new betting program that they have started at one of Nicco's new lounges. It soon becomes apparent that someone is setting her up. When her old team is brought in, things soon begin to become clear. Knox and his teammates are going to the championship. They are doing what it takes to win. When some of the younger teammates need to be corraled, the Rose sisters step in to help with teaching them how to be good men. There was the usual crowd and Quinn fit right in with the whole town. Her BFF Hel seems to have gotten the attention of one of the eligible bachelors. Can't wait to read the next one.

Every Kathleen Brooks book will get 5 stars from me. She has created characters in series that have become like family. I cried, laughed, fist pumped, and cheered my way through this book. I would turn a page and bump into another old friend like Marcy, Aniyah, Olivia and her kick ass shoes and attorney attitude, and the King and his bedazzled balls lol!! Oh, and of course, The Ahmed! I have read every series in order, around 70+ books of hers and will continue to do so as long as she writes them. Counting down the days back to Keeneston and The Fire Series and also to see what The Townsends are up to next in 2026!!

audiobook charming-sweet humor

Reading books based in Keeneston, a fictional town that I have been reading about for over ten years, is like visiting home. Nothing dry or repetitive about these books. Moments that were heartwarming, moments that made me tear up a little, moments that made me laugh pretty dang hard! I love how Kathleen can take a scary scene and add just enough humor to calm the adrenaline rush that hits so that I am not panicking while reading it. But I also love her creativity in these hilarious moments. The kings jewels, the exaggerated Lambeau leap, the fisted flamethrower. Ya gotta read to understand!

Lots of familiar characters in this book that features Knox a quarterback and his love interest. Quinn was his tutor in college and he hasn't seen her in years. He never had the nerve to ask her out back then. Now he doesn't want to miss his chance. Is he still totally interested in her and needs to get her to see it.

All of this series are very predictable but sweet with swoony good men and narrated by Eric Dove. The quirky town and characters are more of a comfort listen than real mystery but sometimes that is what I need : )

Outstanding as usual

I have loved every book of this series. There is humor, laugh out loud kind. There is love, caring, kindness and justice . Also a mystery in each and every book. This book no exception. I highly recommend this book and all the other book I have read of Ms. Brooks. This series Forever Bluegrass, or the Web of Lies, Women of Power, Bluegrass state of mind, Bluegrass brothers and other series and singles. All are outstanding well written books

One of the BEST Authors EVER

I read a lot, have since I was very young & I'm 65 now. Kathleen Brooks makes characters you truly believe, hell you'll recognize your friends & family in her books. BUT the best part is you may get new characters but they're joining the rest of the family & friends you already know and love. I haven't been disappointed in a single book she's written!

love, intrigue and lots of humor describe this book. I really enjoyed it and had a hard time putting it down. I’m really sad it appears this is the last book in the series. Would love another series for all the characters not part of Keenston. But it would have to include the Keenstonites that you grow more to like with every book.

If these books were made into a series it would be a success!

Another winner for Brooks. I have been reading these books since series from the start and love how we get to watch as the babies grow up and have children of their own. The people of Keeneston are so very special and make small town life sound wonderful. They support their own and those they adopt as their own. This was another funny and lighthearted read from the series. I have to pace myself or I’d have consumed the book in a day. Highly recommend the entire series, start to present.

This series is a continuation of the Bluegrass and it's fantastic. The stories are filed with great characters that reappear in future books. Very well written with a story line that makes you keep reading then hinting at the next book. Can't wait to see what happens in the next book.

Touchdown

Kathleen Brooks has another winner with her 70th book. Knox and Quinn are just meant to be. From Quinn tutoring Knox in college, to their meeting again years later; never have forgotten each other. Quinn is accused of illegal betting and Knox and friends work to save her.

Oops!!! She did it again!

Every time I think Kathleen Brooks can’t top her last book and she does. Each time a new book comes out and I get to go “home” again to Keeneston is a great thing. Absolutely can’t wait for the next series and for the Shadows Landing books! Kathleen is a true master storyteller.

Knox and Quinn, what a couple

It was a long wait for Knox’s book but it was worth the wait. Kathleen brooks books bring me joy and I always love reading them.
Quinn and Knox make a great couple, so much is being thrown at them. Friends before lovers is a great way to start a relationship. Love all the Keeneston families and how they will always come to each other aid.

I like all things Keeneston, Knox and Quinn were no different. Knox and Quinn met in college, she was his tutor for a tech class he needed to pass. He fell hard for her and he for him. However, neither expressed her true feelings. Then one day they see each other again and life changed completely. Great story.

Second chances

I do not want my visits to Keeneston to ever end! It's like coming home every time I pick up a Forever book. I have loved this series ever since I started Will and McKenna's story. I've loved reading through the generations, and I can't wait to see all the babies as the 3rd generation grows up!

She’s done it again. I absolutely loved this book. One of my favorite parts was catching up with all the previous characters while also getting to see new ones and their love stories unfold. Kathleen Brooks has a way of making this town feel like home, and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!
