Three Months Yesterday

by Erin Graves

Life has a way of throwing you off course…especially when you least expect it.

My boyfriend of ten years breaking up with me definitely wasn’t planned and threw me for a loop. Except...when I stop to think about it, maybe it wasn't as surprising as it should have been

But life didn't stop there. No, it kept throwing me curveball after curveball.

Having the world’s most charming celebrity living next door on the property for my family inn. Check.
Finding out I’m twenty weeks pregnant with my ex-boyfriend’s baby. Check.
Falling in love with that same majorly attractive and apparently down-to-earth celebrity. Check.

How in the world can I ask someone like Beckett Stone, a world-famous superstar, to love me, a small town inn manager and my unborn child? A child who’s not even his?

Yeah. Life sure knows how to make a mess of things.

[Sim-fully Ever After]

4🌟 | 3🌶️

This was such a warm and genuinely enjoyable romance.

Beckett and Madison were such a sweet surprise. Their relationship felt mature, genuine, and beautifully unhurried, and I loved how their connection grew through all those small, meaningful moments. There was something so comforting about watching them become each other’s safe place.

Beckett completely stole my heart with how patient, thoughtful, and quietly devoted he was, while Madison’s growth made her so easy to root for. I also loved the warmth of her family and the added suspense, which gave the story a little extra intrigue while still keeping the romance at the centre.

The emotional depth, found family, soft romance, and little everyday moments made this such an enjoyable read, and I’m definitely looking forward to more from Stonebridge Hollow.

I loved the warmth this story brought to the romance.

A huge thank you to the lovely author, Erin Graves, for the ARC! 😍 All my bookish thoughts are completely my own. ✨

Listen to me- if you love the "not his baby" trope, you NEED to read this book. I read it in 1 sitting. I was in a slump before starting this book, nothing was hitting, but this was just what I needed!! 6 stars!! 😭😭💖

[paige o’neill]

i had the pleasure of beta reading this for erin, and i absolutely loved it!

i just finished rereading this (the arc version) and im still so in love with beckett and madison. they are so beautiful, mature and wholesome. i can’t wait for the world to meet them…

three months yesterday 💛

if erin writes it, i will love it! i had the pleasure of beta reading this and i was instantly hooked on beckett and madison, their relationship was so wholesome and unique. they were just a beautiful couple that felt so mature, raw and honest. i don’t think i’ve ever read a book where it’s a surprise baby/not his baby before, but i was so pleasantly surprised. i also liked the suspense that this book had, it just added another layer to the story that not only deepen the connection between madison and becket but also gave us little hints to the other characters.

‘i have no doubt there's something magical about this place that somehow constantly brings the light back into the moment, but i think that magic might just be madison hawthorne herself.’

i really loved becketts character, he was such a sweet and caring man. his past was really sad and my heart hurt for him a lot, but seeing him open up and let madison in was wholesome. i adored all the things he did for her, they were so small and simple but perfect. they never needed the big and outrageous to show their love, just small and meaningful things were enough to prove it. they were just each others person and their connection really did show that, they just understood each other and gelled so quickly and wholly. madison was such a wonderful and kind character, i really admired her strength and just seeing that grow throughout was amazing. i really loved how she carried herself and eventually started to back herself. i loved the little family they ended up making and really did enjoy reading their story.

‘it's unnatural the way i feel around him, but that doesn't stop me from spending more and more time with beckett stone.’

thank you so much erin for allowing me to beta read this for you, it was such a beautiful and wholesome read.

Review of advanced reader copy thanks to the author.

What an absolutely wonderful love story! I especially loved the MMC in this one, Beckett who was just absolutely wonderful to Madison. I also love a little bit of suspense in my romance and the stalker storyline did that just enough! If you’re a fan of Lucy Score or Catherine Cowle, I’d highly recommend picking this one up.

There was something so warm and comforting about Three Months Yesterday. This is my first book by Erin Graves, and I really enjoyed being introduced to Stonebridge Hollow through Madison and Beckett's story. ❤️

Madison's life has definitely not gone according to plan. After spending ten years with the same man, their relationship ends and suddenly she's trying to figure out what her life looks like without the future she thought they were building together.

She's still running her family's inn, surrounded by the people she loves, and trying to find her footing when Beckett Stone arrives looking for a place to disappear for a while.

Beckett is a world-famous folk singer dealing with his own problems. He's been struggling creatively for months, needs a break from his very public life, and has the added stress of a stalker hanging over him. A friend sends him to Stonebridge Hollow, where he ends up staying in a cabin right next to Madison.

And she has absolutely no idea who he is. 😂

I loved that!

For someone who is constantly recognized and watched, Madison gives Beckett something he hasn't had in a long time. Around her, he gets to simply be Beckett instead of Beckett Stone, the celebrity.

There's an attraction between them almost immediately, but what I really loved was how gently their relationship developed.

Madison has JUST ended a ten-year relationship. She's understandably hesitant to jump straight into something new, and Beckett respects that. He might be imagining what could happen between them, but he never pushes her before she's ready.

Instead, they become friends.

And this is where Beckett completely won me over. 🥹

It's all the little things with him.

The origami with little notes.

Buying her favorite snacks.

Watching her favorite movies just because it means spending time with her.

Listening when she talks.

Noticing when she's trying to carry too much.

Being there without demanding anything in return.

Beckett might be a famous musician capable of making huge romantic gestures, but it was all those small, thoughtful moments that made me fall for him.

Then Madison discovers she's twenty weeks pregnant with her ex-boyfriend's baby.

Talk about life throwing another curveball. 😳

I really appreciated how the pregnancy was handled because Madison's experience isn't portrayed as completely easy or uncomplicated. She's processing becoming a mother while also dealing with the end of the relationship she thought would lead to this exact kind of future.

And then there's Beckett. ❤️

This man did not hesitate in the ways I expected him to.

He never made Madison feel like her baby was baggage or something he would simply tolerate because he wanted her. He showed her through his actions that when he chose Madison, he was willing to embrace the life that came with her too.

That made me love him even more.

Madison and Beckett also COMMUNICATE, which deserves its own round of applause. 😂👏

There were so many opportunities for unnecessary misunderstandings between a newly single pregnant inn manager and a world-famous musician dealing with a stalker, yet their relationship isn't built around refusing to talk to one another.

They have honest conversations.

They listen.

They give each other space when it's needed.

And they gradually become a safe place for one another.

I also loved the family relationships throughout the story. Madison's brothers, Aiden and Wyatt, brought so much personality and warmth to Stonebridge Hollow, and I already want more from some of these side characters. Her family isn't portrayed as perfect either, and I appreciated that the more difficult relationships were actually addressed rather than conveniently forgotten.

And Beckett standing up for Madison when she needed someone firmly in her corner?

YES. ❤️

There is also a suspenseful storyline surrounding Beckett's stalker that I wasn't expecting to enjoy as much as I did. It added mystery and another layer of tension outside the romance, and honestly, I wanted MORE of it. I would have loved to see that mystery woven even deeper into their everyday lives and have a few more possibilities to question along the way.

That's really what kept this one at four stars instead of pushing it all the way to five for me. I enjoyed that part enough that I wanted it to have an even bigger presence.

But the romance itself was incredibly sweet.

Madison's life has been completely knocked off the course she expected, while Beckett arrives in Stonebridge Hollow because he desperately needs somewhere to breathe.

Somehow, they become exactly that for each other.

She gives him somewhere he can simply be himself.

He gives her a relationship where she doesn't have to question whether she's truly wanted.

And somewhere between movie nights, little origami notes, family moments, unexpected pregnancy, mystery, and a very patient slow burn, they create something neither of them planned. 🥹❤️

Three Months Yesterday is the first book in a new series, and it was also my first Erin Graves book. It definitely won't be my last! I'm already looking forward to returning to Stonebridge Hollow and seeing whose story comes next.

Sometimes life completely wrecking your plans is how you end up exactly where you're supposed to be. ❤️🏡

Thank you to Erin Graves for the gifted advanced reader copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

[Emily Knaus]

This book feels like a deep breath you didn’t realize you needed. It’s not often that I finish a book and have no notes, but this one left me sitting in silence, just… full.

Madison (28) is newly single, and trying to keep her family’s inn and her heart steady after ending a ten year relationship with a man who never wanted the future she quietly hoped for. She’s practical, gentle, and doing her best to rebuild a life that finally feels like her own again.

Then Beckett Stone shows up at her door.

Beckett (38) is a folk music star hiding out from a stalker and desperate for a place where he can breathe without being watched. Madison doesn’t recognize him, and that’s the first thing that makes him stay. The second is the way she makes Stonebridge Hollow feel like a refuge instead of a hiding place.

Oh my…Beckett… he’s every green flag stitched into one man. Patient. Kind. Thoughtful. He notices everything about Madison; the way she tries to carry too much, the way she softens around people she cares about, and way she gives pieces of herself to everyone but asks for nothing in return. He becomes her constant. She becomes his calm. Their slow burn is the kind that sneaks up on you, built from quiet moments, shared routines, and the safety of being truly seen. He leaves her origami with little notes, buys her favorite snacks, and watches her favorite movies just to spend time with her.

“And suddenly, I want to do everything I can to make sure she stays part of my life. In any capacity.”

The suspense is perfectly woven in, adding just enough tension to keep your pulse ticking without ever overshadowing the romance. And the twist you don’t see coming hits with emotional force, it’s certainly the kind that makes you rethink every breadcrumb the author laid along the way.

Madison’s brothers, Aiden and Wyatt, are standouts. Protective, warm, and quietly hilarious, they make Stonebridge Hollow feel lived‑in and loved. Their presence adds depth, family loyalty, and the kind of support Madison has always deserved. And the moment Beckett stands up to her parents was utter perfection. Steady, respectful, and quietly fierce, it’s the kind of scene that makes you fall even harder for him. He would go to the ends of the earth for her and that you can feel emanating from his character.

Beckett’s tragic past still shadows him, but around Madison he feels lighter, almost unburdened. She becomes his light, a safe space out of the darkness. He becomes her constant, her equal and protector all in one. It’s a grown-up kind of love full of healing, understanding and patience.

And when Madison discovers she’s pregnant, something her ex never wanted, Beckett doesn’t hesitate. He steps forward with his whole heart. No fear. No doubt. Just devotion and a future he’s finally ready to claim. The writing is beautiful, and the lyrics are poetic. You can feel this intimate, artistic thread to Beckett’s character that makes every song feel like a love letter.

Three Months Yesterday is a tender, beautifully crafted romance about finding safety, choosing softness, and letting someone love you back to yourself. I adored every page!!

A huge thank you to Erin Graves for the early copy!! Can’t wait for Willa’s story next.

[Aniek]

This is my first book by Erin Graves and I will definitely be reading more! It’s also the first in a new series for her and I am lucky enough to have read it as an ARC.

Madison owns/runs her family’s inn with cabins in a small town, Stonebridge Hollow. Beckett is a famous folk singer looking for a break and inspiration. A friend encourages him to take a long break at the inn, and when he does, he’s placed in a cabin next to Madison.

This is an incredibly sweet, touching story with a bit of spice. The budding relationship between Madison and Beckett is described so warmly and gently that it really grew on me and made the relationship seem all the more real. Both are clearly interested in each other from the start but given that Madison’s just ended a long relationship, she’s wary of starting something new so soon. Beckett, while fantasising (shown in the odd flash/sentence) about what could be with Madison, respects and waits for her. When they eventually do get together, it’s hot! I love ‘eyes on me’ scenes…

There’s an added twist related to Beckett’s fame which added a little bit of tension and mystery outside of the main story, which I really enjoyed. I also like that the characters aren’t all perfect (ref: Madison’s parents), and that those scenes aren’t left to fester as loose ends at the end of the story: while future books are teased a bit, this is clearly a standalone story. Madison’s pregnancy isn’t all super smooth sailing either.

I would perhaps have liked to read more about the practical running of the inn by Madison and Beckett’s career as a famous musician and how it is to be on the road, but this didn’t detract from the overall storyline for me.

Being the first in the series there’s a certain element of introductions going on, but this isn’t really an issue. Erin has also put in loads of effort to give the important characters distinct personalities, which really makes this story more interesting and engaging. Erin’s writing style flows well and there was absolutely nothing that jarred me out of the story. I particularly liked that Beckett and Madison communicate - this isn’t a story founded on miscommunication, which is refreshing.

All in all, if you like slow-burn love stories, with a surprise baby (not his baby but wanted and loved by both the FMC and MMC) with a bit of spice, this is the book for you!

Thank you to Erin Graves for writing this lovely book and the ARC.

Three Months Yesterday was an incredibly sweet and heartwarming romance that beautifully introduced me to Erin Graves!

Madison is navigating life after a decade-long relationship when she meets the famous folk singer Beckett Stone at her family's quaint inn. He's seeking some privacy and a spark of musical inspiration.

I adored how their relationship unfolded. There’s an instant attraction, but Beckett respects Madison's recent breakup and takes it slow. They start as friends, and his thoughtful gestures make him such a lovable hero.

From origami notes to favorite snacks, cozy movie nights, and heartfelt conversations, Beckett's attentiveness is so endearing. Despite his celebrity status, he remains wonderfully down-to-earth.

The plot thickens when Madison discovers she's twenty weeks pregnant with her ex's baby. Beckett's reaction is one of my favorite aspects of his character. He embraces Madison's situation with love and support, never viewing the baby as a burden but as part of a future he wants with her.

I appreciated their mature communication, making their relationship feel natural and unhurried. Watching them become a safe haven for each other was truly heartwarming.

The dynamics within the Stonebridge Hollow family added a lovely touch, while the subplot of Beckett's stalker introduced an element of suspense that I found captivating. I actually wished it had been explored more, as it added an intriguing layer to the story.

This was my first book by Erin Graves, but it definitely won’t be my last. Three Months Yesterday is a touching small town romance about unexpected beginnings, finding love when plans fall apart, and discovering that sometimes the person you never anticipated is exactly who you need.

Forever In Stonebridge Hollow: Beckett and Madison

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Madison’s life is already a bit of a mess when the story starts. Her long-term relationship ends, and she finds herself falling for the ridiculously attractive celebrity living next door. Then… she discovers she’s pregnant…
Because apparently life decided she needed all the complications at once!

I really liked Madison. She’s dealing with so much, but I loved that she had a strong support system around her. The close family relationships and the found-family aspect were definitely some of my favourite parts of the story. There’s something about a close-knit small-town community that just works for me.

Beckett was also a great hero. He’s dealing with his own issues, including a stalker and months of being unable to produce music, so I could understand why he was holding himself back. He’s instantly attracted to Madison, but he doesn't just rush into things, which made the romance feel more believable.

The tension between them was definitely a slow burn, and I enjoyed watching their relationship develop. There was attraction from the beginning, but there was also a lot of hesitation and uncertainty, especially with the differences in their lives and everything that came with it.

I also really liked seeing the softer side of Beckett. For someone who is a huge celebrity, he felt surprisingly down-to-earth, and I loved how comfortable he became with Madison and her family.

Overall, this was a sweet, emotional small-town romance with a good balance of family, found family, slow-burn tension and a hero who has his own baggage to work through.

[Gabrielle Volstad]

Thank you, Erin, for the ARC for an honest review!

This book started out in what felt was going to be a typical forced proximity, promoted accidental pregnancy, type of way. However, when it became clear that we also get a mystery attached to it? I was invested.

Madison is a soft character, one who has wondered what she is doing with her life to be at the point she is and what she is meant to do going forward. Beckett is trying to find inspiration for his music after being in a six month musical slump. With what is clearly the best guy friend ever encouraging him to get a way to a tiny town, he encounters Madison at her inn and hopelessly begins falling. It is important to note that, despite first attraction, they take time to be friends first before letting this take place organically.

The characters are all fantastic. You can sense the depth of every one of them, even her parents. They are all dynamic and clearly have so many thoughts going on even if we never get to hear exactly what side characters are thinking (I want more on Ryan!!!). Erin's strength lies here. I would read a book for every single one of them, even the parents!

Why only 4 stars? I honestly felt the mystery surrounding them could have had more going on. I wanted that to be more embedded in their lives. Beckett spent too much time not focused on that even with his neighborly distraction. I also wanted more potential suspicious members of the town. I know it was a love story more than anything, but that mystery was what made the book stand out.

After reading the next book's preview, I am hoping that one does more of that!

[Crystal LoCicero]

Great start of a series

"Figuring it out doesn't mean you have to do it alone. You're stuck with me now."

Let me set the vibe....
Famous musician mmc needs to hide away from a stalker. Old soul historical Inn owner fmc just ended a 10 year relationship platonically and feels a little lost. They meet. Life happens. 

I really liked the characters.  They all had something relatable and real they were going thru. 

The family dynamic of the fmc had me in my feels. A complicated mother/daughter relationship will always have me in my feels. I liked how this felt realistic.  There was no magic moment that made everything better. 

I went into this with the expectation it was a pregnancy romance, but that part of the story didn't really start until almost 50% in. The last half of the book went so much faster paced than the 1st half. I do wish that last 30% was more fleshed out. 

The mmc was so sweet. I loved the origami flowers he gave the fmc. 

I really liked the fmc's brother's and will love to read their stories. Also, the mmc's bff(the baseball player), I'm so courious what he was dealing with. 

The fmc had one of the most memorable talks with her ex boyfriend. I loved it. It was so mature and really showed how they were friends for 10+ years. I love the the exes aren't villains and everything just seems so healthy. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this. I just think then ending felt a bit rushed. But I will definitely read more in this series as they come. 

I recieved this book as an ARC, but the review is completely independent and reflects my own genuine thoughts, feelings, and opinions.

Madison Hawthorne tiene una buena vida. Vive en su pueblo natal, Stonebridge Hollow, donde se encarga de The Lantern Inn, el negocio de su familiar. Además, lleva casi una década con Mark, su primer amor, así que después de tantos años juntos, el siguiente paso parece bastante obvio: casarse. Desde fuera, todo parece perfecto, el problema es que ella es la última persona en darse cuenta de que Mark ya no ve su futuro con ella y decide terminar la relación. De repente, sus siguientes pasos son inciertos y Madison se queda intentando descubrir quién es ahora que la relación que definió gran parte de su vida ya no existe.

Entonces llega Beckett Stone a The Lantern Inn.

Beckett no tiene nada que ver con el tipo de hombre que Madison esperaba conocer. Es un músico famoso que busca alejarse de la presión de su carrera y de un acosador. Lo último que necesita es involucrarse emocionalmente con alguien, especialmente con una mujer que acaba de salir de una relación de diez años.

___


Le atiene a la primera sobre quien era el acosador.

Me habría gustado un mejor desarrollo entre Mad y sus padres, sobre todo con su madre.


Gracias Erin por el ARC.

Review of advance copy received from Author

WOW, just WOW. Beckett Stone is just perfection, so tender & sweet, kind, HOT... all the characteristic that we love. Even though he has his own demons and stalker, how he treats and loves Madison is beyond words. The way he feels for Madison and later her baby even though it is not his, how he claimed them both, made me swoon for him even more.

Madison has simple pleasures in that she loves her family inn, horses and the simple life. Even when she meets music legend Beckett Stone, she just learns more about him and not Googling him to find out all that has been reported on him.

I also loved the relationship that Madison has with her brothers, and Beckett has with his best friend Ryan. How Madisons brother accepted and formed a relationship with Beckett and supporting their relationship before they even became official.

Had my suspicions throughout about who the stalker was and my instincts where correct with the initial thoughts of Holly and also thinking that Adam had something to do with it…. Still left me shocked when the truth was revealed.

I am excited to read the other books in this series.

ARC Review

"Hmm, remember, I've got an old soul. Besides, it's not about the age of the engine, but the miles on it that counts."

I love Erin’s stories, and this one is absolutely no exception! Beckett and Madison were truly the sweetest, most caring, loving couple.

Beckett was SO swoony! The way he loved Madison and little Nugget had my whole heart. And the patience this man had?! 🫠 This was a slow burn, but WOW … when it finally hit, IT HIT. 🔥

I truly loved getting to know these two. They each carried their own struggles, hurts, and traumas, but the maturity they showed throughout the entire story was beautiful. I loved watching them navigate each other, work through situations, slowly break down those walls, and ultimately fall.

This book also had a different feel from Erin’s other books with the added suspense element, and I LOVED IT! I had so much fun following the clues, trying to put the pieces together, and pretending I was the detective I wish I could be. 🤭

I will always recommend an Erin book. This one is no different! What you can except:
💛Small Town
💛 Surprise Pregnancy
💛 Not His Baby
💛 Forced Proximity (Temporary Neighbors)
💛 Celebrity
💛 Age Gap (38/28)
💛 Slow Burn
💛 He Falls First
💛 Romantic Suspense Elements
💛 …and so much more!

[Itsmep]

This was such a fun, feel-good romance filled with unexpected suspense, unexpected twists, messy emotions, and a seriously swoony celebrity love interest!

The FMC, after being blindsided by her boyfriend of ten years, discovers she’s twenty weeks pregnant (cue "not his baby," my favorite trope), and then finds herself falling for the charming celebrity who's also staying next door (forced proximity). The FMC definitely has a lot thrown at her all at once. I really enjoyed watching her navigate all these changes while trying to figure out what she truly wants for herself and her future.

The MMC (Beckett) was absolutely charming, and I loved the contrast between his celebrity status and how down-to-earth he was. Their relationship had plenty of sweet moments, and the small-town inn setting added to the cozy feel of the story.

The pregnancy and OM drama definitely brought some emotional moments, but overall this was an entertaining, heartwarming, surprisingly suspenseful read with plenty of romance and a happily-ever-after that left me smiling. 💚💛

I received this book as an eARC, although it had no effect on my ability to provide a thoughtful and honest review.

[Julie Booklover]

4.5 stars

This is my first book by Erin Graves, but not my last. She is a fabulous storyteller, her word choice gives you images, her pause for moments makes you aware of the space around you.

Madison is in charge of her family’s inn, in a small town of Stonebridge Hollow. Beckett Stone is a famous singer in need of a break. A friend suggests the inn. The first moment I came across is when Beckett is driving through the town for the first time and we see it through his eyes.

As his stay is a bit longer, he is placed in the cabin near Madison’s, across the property and away from the inn. The interest is immediate, but the two take it slow. Not all is smooth sailing, but it adds to the story. A little tension and mystery also add to the overall story.

As a series starter there is a lot of setup involved, characters to meet, and a small town to explore. I love how all of our characters are relatable, not cookie cutter, or perfect. I will be reading more from this author, and I am looking forward to returning to Stonebridge Hollow.

Thank you to the Author for the advanced copy; this is my voluntary review

[Rach]

I enjoyed every second I spent reading this!! I loved the blend of fluff and angst.

I loved each of the characters and their relationships. Madison not having a single notion as to who Beckett is, was brilliant. I really liked that she didn't really have any of these preconceived ideas about him because of his celebrity status and that she liked him for him.

I thoroughly enjoyed the major lack of angst between Madison and Beckett. They were very sweet throughout the novel and I just really loved them together. They were both so patient and loving, and I loved how they each handled the other's traumas/insecurities.

I really enjoyed the way that Madison's character is explored before the pregnancy is brought up beyond the signs of nausea, dizziness and so on. I like that we saw her in two major times in her life and that
Madison had time to be her own character before she discovered her pregnancy.

I really loved this story, it was so warm, loving and full of depth and I am so thankful for the opportunity to have this as an ARC. I'm really excited to see where the series leads and cannot wait for Wyatt's story.

[Marti]

I am so obsessed with Beckett Stone!! This man is swoony and sweet and notices all the little things!
I love a man who steps up when doesn’t have to. The way he was automatically in for Madison and her baby was perfection. He even calls the baby nugget!!! I loved the underlying suspense with Beckett stalker and honestly had no idea who it could have been. It played out very well.
This story wrapped up so beautifully and had me with tears in my eyes at the end.

While I am a huge fan of not his baby, I almost gave up on this one. Madison doesn’t find out about the pregnancy until almost half way through the book. Making the second half move faster than the first half. However it did end up redeeming itself because of Beckett and his love for her! I would have liked to have seen a little more interaction with Beckett and Shep after he was born.

Overall I did enjoy this book and will definitely check out more from this author in the future.

Thank you to Erin and her team for my advanced copy of this book.

Wow Erin just hit it out of the park with this one! Madison and Beckett are pretty much polar opposites but work so well together! Three Months Yesterday is the first book in her new series, Forever in Stonebridge. Avid readers of Erin’s will see glimpses of past characters which is always fun.

Beckett is just the most wonderful MMC of Erin’s to date. He is all in for Madison. Whether it be standing up for her with her family, or standing by her side with her baby. Add in his dirty mouth and he is the whole package.

Madison is such a strong FMC. She is so independent(sometimes to the detriment of herself) and I admired how she wanted to bring the inn back to its former glory. I’m so glad she has Beckett and her brothers to support her.

This series is off to an amazing start and I can’t wait to see when Erin takes us next

[Kelly (kelsreads.andotherthings)]

Whatever lives in the space between friends and what we could have been, that unnamed thing that pulses every time my hand brushes hers or she looks at me like she’s trying to memorize my face, that’s the thing I can’t walk away from.

What a swoony way to start a new series! I loved everything about Beckett and Madison! The small town vibes were vibing with the quaint Bed & Breakfast setting and Erin captured it with a detail that has me wanting to visit Stonebridge Hollow all over again (good thing more books are coming!) There was a tenderness to Madison and Beckett's relationship that just made their love story one I wanted to keep reading. Not to mention the suspense-y elements that kept me intrigued until the very end.

I thoroughly enjoy the way Erin writes her love stories. Her characters always have an emotional depth and maturity that's refreshing to read and has you genuinely rooting for the characters. I'm excited to see what happens next in Stonebridge Hollow.

[Sarah]

All it took was seeing “surprise pregnancy” and “not his baby” and I immediately downloaded. I really enjoyed this! It was my first book by the author and I liked the writing. It was easy to read, finishing it within a day.

I loved these two together, I just would have liked more moments between them on page so we could feel the connection they built. I felt like it was very much a case of being told, not shown and I found myself wondering when their feelings had gotten to that point.

The way Beckett stepped up for Madison and her baby was really beautiful, he never once faltered and I adored them together. He truely found his home with her and this town and I loved how that played out. I enjoyed the suspense aspect, it added another layer to the story and while I predicted it, I still found it really enjoyable.

This was a great first instalment to the series and I already adore Madison’s brothers so I’m looking forward to their stories! Will definitely continue the series.

[Meghan T]

I finished Three Months Yesterday by Erin Graves and I LOVED IT!
It is the first book in her new Forever in Stonebridge Hollow series and it’s OUT NOW!
Beckett is a popular singer who needs a break from the city (and a stalker!) and Madison runs an in a small Hallmark town. The inn is recommended to Beckett by his best friend Ryan and he decides to go for his 3 month break. The first time they meet you can see they both feel an attraction toward the other but Beckett doesn’t do relationships due to trauma in his past and Madison just broke up with a man she had a 10 year relationship with. Although she feels guilty that she wasn’t really sad, just relieved. But they ended up not being able to stay away from the other and became friends who become more…and then Madison finds out she’s pregnant and it’s not Beckett’s. I loved this story. Beckett was definitely one to swoon over! And I cannot wait for Madison’s brother’s, Wyatt and Aiden’s books!

Madison & Beckett. Combine "not his baby" with romantic suspense and I'm hooked. Madison runs an inn owned by her family and she has been fixing it up. She just broke up with her boyfriend of 10 years. Beckett, a famous music artist, comes to town to escape and happens to be staying at her inn. He's got a stalker. She's got a surprise pregnancy.

They've got a lot to overcome but I love the way they did it. He's a walking green flag and she is so kind and so earnest that you have to love her. Beckett is the definition of "if he wanted to he would." Showing up and showing her in little ways that she is special and loved, that he's just a guy (standing in front of a girl...).

There are a lot of intertwined supporting characters in this book so I'm hoping for a long series from Erin Graves! I'm loving the world she is building for Stonebridge Hollow and look forward to the next books.

Three Months Yesterday was such a cozy, feel-good romance.

I am always a sucker for a celebrity/commoner couple, and then Erin Graves gave me a not-his-baby romance on top of it! I loved the sweet slow burn between Beckett and Madison, how she had no idea who he was when they first met at her family inn, and how amazing he was when she found out she was pregnant with her ex's baby. Their relationship unfolded so nicely, and I was *shown* everything I needed to see to really root for this couple. Beckett and Madison were so perfectly matched, and the way he was so warmly welcomed by her family helped him heal so much from the horrible accident he'd been in.

I've adored all of Erin's small-town romances and am looking forward to spending more time in Stonebridge Hollow. This is in the same world as her Ashford Falls series; Madison is best friends with Sadie from Nine Holidays Falling.

I received a complimentary copy and voluntarily left a review.

The overall story is fine, and while you can smell the general plot from the first few pages, it’s still an enjoyable read. That said, I found myself wondering about quite a few things along the way. I wanted more details about what happened to her brother, and Beckett supposedly loved the cozy, homey feeling of the inn’s reception area, which is also such a big part of her life, but then it’s barely mentioned again. And the whole she doesn’t know his music thing? Okay, I can buy that… but she doesn’t even know his name? Pff.

The slow burn was really slow, perhaps a little too slow to get me hooked at the beginning. And, as it turns out, I’m not a huge fan of the “not his baby” trope either.

But all of this is definitely a matter of personal preference. Overall, I still enjoyed the read and had a good time with the story, even if a few things didn’t quite work for me.

4.5 🌟

I absolutely loved getting to know the Hawthorne’s and Beckett as well as the town of Stonebridge Hollow! The little mentions of Ashford Falls and a few of those characters were so fun for me to read!

Anyways, the love that Madison and Beckett share is one of those where it happens when you least expect it, sneaking up on you before you realize you’re in deep and can’t imagine how you managed life before. The stories both characters have to tell are realistic and relatable to so many people. I saw some of myself in both characters and even in the side characters. Like Beckett, I feel like Stonebridge Hollow is home. The same way I felt at home in Ashford Falls. I cannot wait to learn more about Wyatt (and definitely Aiden) in the next book.

Thank you so much to Erin Graves for allowing me to read an early copy of Three Months Yesterday!

I had the absolute pleasure of beta reading for Erin, and this story just absolutely has my heart! Beckett and Madison are so sweet and their relationship just makes sense. From the moment they meet they have an undeniable pull that can’t be ignored.

Beckett Stone is seriously every walking green flag! He was everything Madison needed in her life and showed up in a big way! These two both showed each other how slow down and enjoy life. Giving each other a safe space to be.

I am so excited for this series and what’s to come!! I fell in love with this family and this town and cannot wait for more!

Such a warm and cozy slow-burn romance—it was like walking through the front door of your best friend’s house for a visit, getting wrapped up in a big, warm hug and catching up on all the things. Madison’s life shifted in ways she least expected—her long time relationship dissolved (before she found out about her pregnancy) and a handsome celebrity entered it. Beckett was needing to escape and found a new unexpected purpose too. These two…you could just tell they were meant for each other. She grew in her confidence and learned what she wanted, needed and deserved. He let his green flags and vulnerability show. And I adored how they worked through all the hurdles together. I’m really looking forward to more from the Forever in Stonebridge Hollow series!
