Come With Me:

All the small town feels. Come With Me is giving Small town, cowboys, first love, high school sweethearts, and secret baby vibes. This was an incredible introduction to Sugarland Creek and the Hollis Family. A start to what I know will be an amazing series.

The prologue takes place 10 years prior and almost brought me to tears so I knew it was gonna be great. Ayden & Laney were high school sweethearts who had a forever kind of love. Ayden had a terrible home life and fled their home town. For as much as Laney loved Ayden she couldn't leave her mom. Little did she know she would wind up pregnant with no way to tell him he was going to be a dad.

When Laney shows up at Sugarland Ranch after finally finding Syden, she turns his world upside down in the best way. You can tell that there is still love between them and Laney never faulted Ayden for leaving, she understood why he had to go. Serena Mae is adorable and you can't help but love her and her spunky self. The bond that Ayden and Serena had so quickly was beautiful to watch.

The spice level was just perfect and boy does Ayden have a dirty mouth on him!!!! I loved their connection and how easily Ayden stepped into his father role. This book was the perfect introduction to the series and I am excited to see where it goes.



Here With Me:

Here With Me is Book 1 in the Sugarland Creek book and it features Noah & Fisher. We are talking age gap, forbidden as all get out, ex-boyfriends dad, grumpy sunshine and of course cowboys!!! Brooke hooked me from the prologue and already had me teary eyed. My heart broke for Fisher from the very beginning. He is a man who has lost so much and feels as though he is not worthy of anything. Noah is a firecracker and a hell of a woman. She is a rockstar in her field and isn't afraid to show the men that a woman can train horses as good if not better than them.

The two share an INCREDIBLE night together only for Noah to go running as soon as the sun comes up and she realizes what Fisher's last name is. However the connection and chemistry between them was palpable and I could feel it coming off the pages. There is no way these two couldn't figure out a way to make it work.

What I loved about the story was the family aspect, from Noah's four brothers to her parents, her sassy Gramma and even her best friend Magnolia. They all played such crucial parts in the story and added to the small town charm that made the story so great.

Their journey was not easy at all and plenty of tears were shed by me (blame it on the pregnancy hormones) but it was so beautiful. To witness Fisher get a piece of his life back and realize that he was worthy of love again. Also the way the family rallied around not only Noah but Fisher as well. If this was the beginning, I can't wait to see where the next books takes us.


Stay With Me:

If you read Here With Me you probably already fell in love with Magnolia. Stay With Me just solidified why I am such a fan of her. She is her own brand of sass and flirty-ness and I am here for it. Tripp is literally everything you want and love about a book boyfriend. There literally isn't a thing wrong with that man.

Magnolia has been with a frog off and on for years while secretly harboring a crush on her best friends brother, Tripp. Tripp's brother also had a thing for Magnolia for a while, so Tripp being the perfect man he is just stepped back and bided his time. When they FINALLLY get their chance together, Magnolia finds out she is pregnant and unfortunately it isn't Tripp's. Magnolia pushes him away out of fear that he won't want her. Tripp proves to her daily that he isn't going anywhere. I mean that scrapbook....come on!!!!! I was balling like a baby.

The entire Hollis family is one I want to be a part of. While they are nosey and all up in everyone's business. They always have each others back no matter what. The suspense aspect of the book wasn't a huge portion but it packed a punch when it mattered. This was another amazing addition to the series and I am soooooo excited to see where book 3 takes us!!!

Come with me - 5 stars - Great small town romance.
Great small town romance. Laney and Ayden are high school sweethearts but Ayden leaving town and Laney staying is the end of their romance despite their professions of love. We jump 10 years ahead to see Ayden well established working as a rancher, and Laney's arrival to share both good and bad news. I loved that we got to here in the story quickly, so the rest is dedicated to them reconnecting and rebuilding the relationship that was left behind. Things have changed for them but not with regard to Ayden’s abusive father, so dealing with him brings an added element to this story. An easy-to-read story which I knocked over quickly, it sets the scene for the series to come featuring the Hollis family, Ayden’s found family at the ranch. Looking forward to Here with Me, Noah's story up next.

Here with me – 5 stars – His second chance at love
Loving this Sugarland Creek.series, Here with Me is Noah and Fisher's story and it's a great read.
Ms. Montgomery's writing is easy to read but her storytelling pulls you in and doesn't let go as she weaves this fabulous tale of Fisher getting his second chance at love when the sassy, independent, free spirited, and half his age, Noah comes into his orbit. Their chemistry is instant and off the charts, them staying away from each other despite relationships, family ties, and working circumstances, just isn’t going to happen and leads to some off the charts hot & steamy scenes.
The banter between them, between Noah and her brothers and the all-seeing Gramma, brings the lightheartedness breaking up the serious scenes dealing with Fisher's past, his loss and his strained relationship with Jase his son, and the drama surrounding Noah’s competitor trying to sabotage her training business and threaten her life.
This has lots in it you keep you entertained and turning the pages. You'll laugh, at times you'll want to cry but you will definitely enjoy.

Stay With Me– 5 stars – Tripp & Sunny – perfect together!
Magnolia and Tripp are amazing together in this small-town romance. Tripp: loyal, steady, everybody’s dream cowboy, whose heart of gold has only ever belonged to his Sunny. Magnolia: troubled past with an on again, off again, dirtbag boyfriend and despite this, has a big heart and sass for days.
The banter between these two will keep you entertained as the plot of the story fills out and Tripp’s loyalty and love for Magnolia only grows as he fights for what he wants- despite all obstacles- her.
I loved this book; the beginning gave us some background with a look into incidents in the past before getting into the present day story. The involvement of family in the story made for a richer read and some seriously funny scenes. And the heat between these two… off the charts!
Tripp and Magnolia are just perfect for each other, and their story is an immensely enjoyable read.

Huge thank you to Brooke Montgomery and her team for this ALC!

I really enjoyed this bundle! The fact that this had the first three books made this genuinely such a good deal! I would highly suggest this! I am not typically the biggest fan of dual narration but I didn’t mind it on these three audiobooks!

I had actually read Come With Me and Here With Me YEARS ago but I knew I wanted to carry on with the series and I had planned on rereading them when it was time to carry on with the series. Honestly, I enjoyed my rereads more than the first time I read them!

Brooke Montgomery does a great job writing entertaining storylines that captivate me within the prologue and keep my attention the entire time! I literally end up at the edge of my seat because although these are like small town cowboy romances, she writes a subplot of suspense that just GRIPS me by the throat. Brooke does great plot twists and HEAs… not to mention she always does the PERFECT set up for the next book in the bonus epilogue 🤩.

Come With Me is the perfect introduction to the series and is just quick entertaining read. Brooke does a great job introducing all the major characters and setting the tone for the rest of the series! I would give this 3.5 stars! Honestly, I think I just wanted it longer.

Here With Me is everything!.. and I love everything about it! Brooke took ex-boyfriend’s dad trope and did the damn thing 👏. This is such a good introduction to taboo romance 😇. Fisher and Noah’s story is just heartwarming with so much emotional growth and healing. Ps. I am down bad for daddy Fisher. *swears she can hear Noah scolding me for calling him that* I would give this 4 stars!

Stay With Me stole my heart! I love the accidental pregnancy trope… but I love the not his baby trope more #ImJustAGirl 🤷‍♀️. Brooke absolutely killed it at these tropes and I was surprised by how late in the book they came into play. Do I think Magnolia’s pregnancy felt rushed? Yes but that did not effect how much I loved this book. This is my favorite book so far in the series and I would give this 4 stars as well!

Would I suggest this series to a friend? Yes! Would I suggest this audiobook bundle to a friend? Yeah!! Would I reread? Obviously! Would I like trophies? Obviously.

One of my favorite series

Come With Me:

I loved this second chance book! CJ Bloom and Bradley Ford were wonderful to listen to. Their voices were easy to listen to and I really enjoyed them.

Ayden has to leave his town to get away from him abusive father, but can’t convince the love of his life, Laney to come with him.

Almost 10 years later, Laney finds him and tells him his best friend died and that she has a daughter, which is Ayden’s.

I loved their way of saying I Love You to each other, and their daughter is so funny.

Here With Me:

I love Maxine Mitchell and Tor Thom for this couple!!! The made me feel like I was right there in the book! They really brought Noah and Fisher to life.
Noah is cheering one of her clients at a Rodeo when she meets this handsome man and spends the best night of her life with him. The next day, sneaking out, she finds out that he is her ex-boyfriend’s dad and ghosts him.

Fisher shows up to his first day of work at Sugarland Creek for his first day of work. Where he finally see Noah, after their awesome night. Noah tells him that she dated his son, but they can’t stay away from each other and see each other is secret, because Fisher came back home to fix his relationship with his son.

The sneaking around, the spice, and the suspense scenes ad sooo good! I absolutely loved this book!

Stay With Me:

Aiden Snow has a voice to make you melt into a puddle!!! He makes me fall in love with Trip all over again!!!
Savannah Peachwood brought Magnolia’s personality to life!!
The audio of this book is fantastic!
Magnolia has been in love with her best friend’s brother but he won’t give her the time of day and she keeps going back to her toxic ex (one night mistake turns in to pregnancy).

Tripp has secretly loved Magnolia for years but she was always with her ex and his brother like her at one point, so he made up in his mind that she was off limits.

One day Tripp finds out that she likes him and he finally grows a pair and asks her out.

I loved how he just spoils her and she isn’t used to that kind of affection and how he is protective of her after her place was broken into.

I need to find me a Tripp Hollis (that man is a dirty talker *melts to the floor.*

4.75⭐️ 3🌶️ 4.5🎧

The Sugarland Creek series follows the Hollis family as they run their Ranch and fall in love in Sugarland Creek, TN. Volume 1 includes the first 3 books in the series; Come With Me (Prequel), Here With Me (#1), and Stay With Me (#2).

Come With Me
4.5⭐️3🌶️5🎧

This series prequel follows Ayden and Lainey and is narrated by CJ Bloom and Bradley Ford.
These two are so stinkin cute! There is something so special about high school sweethearts finding their way back to each other. I’m shocked at how much detail Brooke was able to cram into this novella. It felt like a full length book but was a quick and enjoyable listen!

Here With Me
5⭐️3🌶️4🎧

This is book one in the series and follows Noah and Fisher. Noah is the daughter in the Hollis family and she falls for her ex's dad.
I love a good ex boyfriend’s dad love story and this one did not disappoint! Noah & Fisher were so dang fun. The first 50% was full of tension and fun, then the angst and heartbreak started. I loved this book and how everything played out! It was so well written, I love how tender Fisher was with Noah, he just couldn't help himself and it was so dang sweet!
This book is narrated by Maxine Mitchell and Tor Tom. I loved this listen!

Stay With Me
5⭐️3🌶️5🎧
This is book two in the series and follows Tripp and Magnolia. I have been so excited for these two since we first met them! I love that the sister's best friend trope wasn't forbidden, and Noah was firmly in the of whatever makes you happy camp. Once Tripp pulled his head out of the dirt, he was just so dang sweet! Having lived it myself, the not his baby trope is one of my favorites, and I adored these characters so much! How Tripp acted when he found out the news was so swoony and heart melting.
This book is narrated by Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow. I love these two narrators so much, I will read a book just to have them read it to me.

Thank you, Brooke Montgomery, for a gifted copy of Sugarland Creek Volume 1 audiobook. I love this series so dang much!

[CookesBooks · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this series in print, but the audiobook made me feel like I was experiencing this small town and these couples for the first time and it was incredible. CJ Bloom, Bradley Ford, Maxine Mitchell, Tor Thom, Aiden Snow, & Savannah Peachwood brought some of my favorite small town couples to life like I couldn’t even have wished for.

Come With Me (Bradley Ford & CJ Bloom): The series prequel is short, but also one of my favorites. Ayden and Lainey were high school sweethearts that lost contact with a huge secret between them. Years later she seeks him out to tell him they have a child. Their reunion was beautiful and the immediate bond he had with their daughter melted my heart. They were all the sweet and spicy I needed to kick this series off with a bang.

Here With Me (Maxine Mitchell & Tor Tom): Noah and Fisher were forbidden and oh so hot. They are hands down one of my favorite ex's dad stories and their spice was spicing. There was so much emotions with their journey and Brooke did an incredible job with the sensitive subjects. I absolutely loved how protective Noah's brothers were with her, but also let her make her own decisions. The Hollis family is special and we get a great introduction to all of them in Here With Me.

Stay With Me (Aiden Snow & Savannah Peachwood): Tripp and Magnolia were my start of the series initially so their story will always hold a special place in my heart. The mutual pining for years will wound you tight but when they finally admit their feelings all bets are off. Tripp was top tier book boyfriend material and the way he loved Magnolia and supported her and the baby will always have me loving him.

Sugarland Creek was one of my first introductions to small town and cowboy romance and I'm so glad it was. Brooke Montgomery created an amazing world with this group of friends and family. You'll get all the sweet and spicy and small town swoon your heart can handle. The Hollis family will have you wishing you were a part of them.

Whether you are new to Sugarland Creek, or are a long time lover of the series like I am, this collection is a great way to dive in into this world or revisit it! Each story (except the prequel) follow a Hollis sibling & their journey to true love & a happily ever after!

This collection is the prequel (Come With Me), book 1 (Here With Me), and book 2 (Stay With Me), and they are all 5 star reads for me! The stories, the characters, the romance/spice, the family dynamics, the suspense that each has, they are just so good! I love love love them!

The audio collection is fantastic as well! Dual narration, & all of the narrators did so well bringing their respective characters to life! There are some heavier accents in these audios, but it fits with the setting & lifestyle of the characters, so to me it was more authentic.

Come With Me: CJ Bloom & Bradley Ford
Here With Me: Maxine Mitchell & Tor Thom
Stay With Me: Savannah Peachwood & Aiden Snow

Highly recommend this collection for any newbies to Sugarland Creek, or readers like me who love to go back to it over and over!

**Thank you to Brooke & Team for the gifted audio opportunity!**

The Sugarland creek series is such a sweet wholesome series. Each book gets better and better. It’s a comfort series for me and throw in a great audio cast!! If you’re looking for small town, Spicy, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, secret baby, exs dad and more this series is for you! Starting with a ranch hand Aydan and he’s true love Laney crossing paths again was such a great way to start this series. Followed up with Fisher and Noah’s story! These two were amazing. I loved the relationship between these two. Who doesn’t love a one night stand that turns into exs dad and more. Then ofcourse wrapping up this set with magnolia and Tripp! These two were absolutely perfect. Find yourself man like Tripp because wow swoon!! Each story in this set gave you all the small town feels as well as some twists and turns along the way. I highly recommend this series! The narrators for this volume was perfect. CJ Bloom, Maxine Mitchell and Savannah Peachwood were fantastic casts for these FMCs and also Bradley Ford, Tor Thom and Aiden snow for the MMC. The pairings in each story were perfect.

[Kurie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This series made me fall in love with cowboy romance again. I listened when they first came out and then when the bundle came out I counts resist relistening and diving back into this magical family with their scrapbooking, love and shenanigans.

What I love most about the bundle is I can flow from one story to the next without skipping a beat. When I first listened it was months apart from each book and I forgot stuff in the interim so it was fun being able to listen to one story after the next and stay in the flow of the world and these characters.

As for the stories themselves:
Come With Me: high school sweethearts get a second chance at love. This one’s short, but oh so delicious.

Here With Me: what happens when you accidentally have spicy time with your ex’s dad? What happens when an accident morphs into more? Loved loved loved this one.

Stay With Me: He’s your best friends brother and her crush. What happens when he has feelings for her back? Minor hiccup! She’s prego with someone else’s baby! This one was a roller coaster

I love this series so much! Definitely recommend getting them bundled.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I had not had a chance to read this series before so when I was presented with the opportunity to listen to the ALC for the first 3 books I jumped at the chance.

All three of these books were so well done and I absolutely loved the stories!

I’m hooked! They are standalones but they flow so well into each one it's best to read in order.
There was so much talent with the narrators on here!

CJ Bloom, Bradley Ford, Tor Thom, Maxine Mitchell, Aiden Snow, and Savannah Peachwood Did an amazing job bringing each story to life. Each book was dual narration but they were so good it almost felt duet!

If you love reading a series about small town cowboys with a huge family I definitely recommend checking this series out!

[Nicole Wills · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved this series when I first read it, and revisiting Sugarland Creek in an audiobook bundle? I jumped at the opportunity - and let me tell you, it does not disappoint! My favorite part about these audios is not just the new life given to an old favorite - but also that everything is in timeline order. I flew through Ayden and Laney, agonized with Noah and Fisher, and followed Magnolia and Tripp’s journey all over again. The narrators performances are perfectly tailored to each couple, and truly breath life into already beloved characters! I can’t wait to dive into Volume 2! The Hollis family is definitely one of my favorite families!

[Stephs.bookshelf09 · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a volume set of the first three books in the Sugarland creek series.

With this volume set you get to start the series off in the order it was meant to be read it. Starting with come with me novella and you get to meet this whole family. You won’t want to leave once you start and you get Fisher and Tripp next!! Hold on tight and enjoy!! Because I binged these back to back and couldn’t get enough.

The narrators are amazing and you get a different sense each book. Fall in love and swoon hard because once you got to sugarland creek you never leave.

[Marylou Menjivar · Rating 5 out of 5]

Having these three audiobooks in one is a good way to start your journey if you
want to start listening to Brooke Montgomery.

You start at Sugarland Creek, a land where The Hollis Family welcomes you
with open arms. A land of sugar and spice, with a dash of everything in between.

DEVOURED This collection! All narrators did a fantastic job!

Thank you Brooke Montgomery for a gifted copy!

I came to Brooke Montgomery with the Willow Branch Mountain series and I just LOVE them! So no suprise that I love going back and reading the Sugarland Creek stories 🥰
I loved all 3 of the couples in volume 1. And I certainly can’t pick a favorite…well except for Tripp. Getting to know him better in Stay With Me shot him up the Book Boyfriends list 🥵

I loved the romance, banter, sibling antics and a bit of suspense. And 3 books in 1 is 🤌🏼💋

[Mandy Robitaille · Rating 5 out of 5]

This audiobook collection of Sugarland Creek, Vol. 1 was incredible. Including Come With Me, Here With Me, and Stay With Me, this series follows the Hollis family and friends. This series is full of angst, friendship, love and drama/family dynamics. I laughed, cried, and felt every emotion in between. This series continues to be one of my favorites and I'm so glad to visit the Ranch once more! Absolutely loved this so much.

[Tricia Freiberg · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love this whole series so listening to the ALC of this volume set was a dream come true. It’s been a while since I was able to read the prequel, so it was nice to remember how Ayden and Laney joined the whole Hollis Crew, and who doesn’t love a little more of Noah and Daddy Fisher? But then you include Magnolia and Tripp and I’m head over heels!

[Amanda Davanzati · Rating 5 out of 5]

When I tell you this is one of my favorite series it’s fully true. I have loved it since the beginning when I read the ebooks and coming back and rereading them but in a collection just makes me love it even more!
I listened to the audio this time around for this volume and it was so good. The narrators did get and really stuck true to the characters. I definitely recommend this for others!

Oh what a time I had revisiting these stories. I loved reading them but listening to them was a whole new experience and I loved it sooo much! Hearing all their stories - Ayden & Laney, Noah & Fisher, and Tripp & Magnolia - in one volume set was perfection!!!

[Resa · Rating 5 out of 5]

the Sugarland Creek Series will pull you in from the start with Lainey and Aiden's second chance. Then you get Noah and Fisher, and her falling for her ex's dad. only to end volume 1 with my favorite couple Magnolia and Tripp in a best friend's brother.

all 3 stories will leave you surprised but the twists and turns in the suspense subplot!
