Okay. Okay. I went into this thinking there was absolutely no way I could adore another Misty Springs couple as much as Corbin and Sophia, and somehow... Sully completely snuck up on me.

I'm not usually a fan of the golden retriever archetype, but I adoreddddddddd him so darn much. Even with his obnoxiously sweet drinks. He is, however, absolutely wrong about gooey butter cake. 😆

And I could relate so much to Cassie and her fiercely independent personality, which made watching her slowly open up feel even more endearing. Oh, and can we please get extras snaps for Elijah? He was hysterically entertaining. Can he have his own book, please?

Truly, what an enchanting story. It's fast-paced with zippy chapters, wholesome, and so easy to devour (more emails, please). Once again, we get an entire cast of characters to love, and this friend group will have you smiling from ear to ear. Absolutely adorable in every way.

Another fantastic story from Juniper Nicole!! I loved More than fiction and I was so excited to get back to the scooby gang for more than a chase!! I loved Sullivan and Cassie’s story so much! This was a slow burn with all the tension!! Just enough wtf to keep the pages turning!

I absolutely loved how the story continued to build off the characters introduced in More Than Fiction. It created such a great through More Than a Chase was such a fun, feel-good love story! I absolutely loved how the story continued to build off the characters introduced in More Than Fiction. It created such a great through line and made Misty Springs feel even more like a place I already knew and loved.

As someone who actually lives in the area that inspired Misty Springs, I especially loved all of the local shoutouts and connections woven throughout the story. There’s something so fun about recognizing little pieces of home in a book and seeing a familiar area brought to life in a fictional way. It made the story feel even more personal for me.

There’s some spice, but I really appreciated that it never overtook the actual story or the characters. The romance, twists, and turns all worked together to make this such an enjoyable read.

At this point, I’ve completely fallen in love with Misty Springs and its residents, and I really hope we continue to see more from Juniper. I truly think there’s so much more to be told in this little town, and I’ll happily be along for the ride! and made Misty Springs feel even more like a place I already knew and loved.

I loved this story and spending more time in Misty Springs!!

There were some characters I really didn’t like and would have loved a little more of a reality check for them. Another character I wasn’t happy with through the book but he came around and I can see a book about him .. wondering if he’ll get paired up with someone we’ve already met or someone completely new?!?

Cassie is amazing and strong but man she is just a bit too independent and secretive. It was great watching her character relax, grow, and learn.

Sullivan has demons of his own and quiet the playboy until he gets swept up in the amazingness of Cassie.

These two together are great as they start to really bring out strengths in the other. The friend group/family is amazing! I’m excited for the next installment!!!! (Hoping we aren’t done!)

I had been waiting for this book since I finish my ARC of the first one and it did not disappoint! Juniper has a way of making fall in love with every single character and feel like you are part of the story. Her writing is absolutely phenomenal. This book had emotional highs and lows all the way to the very end which I feel like isn't seen in many of the books I've read. Now I need a book about Trevor and his past and journey to finding his person, because yes, while it really irritated me off and on (emotional highs and lows), he really has a story that I want to be told, because deep down, he deserves happiness too! Anyways, take me to Misty Springs please!

Juniper has done it again!! More Than A Chase was a delight!

The characters are so relatable and easy to root for, and I loved getting swept up in this small-town love story. It has just the right amount of spice, plenty of heart, and that cozy small-town vibe that makes you want to keep reading.

Such a fun, easy-to-get-lost-in read! I loved watching the story unfold and getting to know these characters. If you love small towns, romance, relatable characters, and a little spice, definitely add this one to your list!

Wow, I flew through this book in just two days—I absolutely could not put it down! It was a total emotional rollercoaster; I laughed, cried, and got genuinely angry right along with the characters. What really stood out to me was the incredible character development. It’s like I was right there experiencing everything with them. If you like romance, spice, witty banter, some laughs and maybe a bad guy or two…..this will be right up your alley!

Sullivan might just be the hottest man I’ve read about in a while. Not only does he have spectacular forearms, he does the freaking chair pull!!!! But besides all that, this man is incredibly supportive. Cassie and Sullivan truly were made for each other. Thank you for giving us their full story; it didn’t feel rushed, but it felt like a couple experiencing true feelings and struggles. This was a beautiful story.

Ahhh this book was so good! Perfect amount of romance, angst, drama, spice and just all around great storytelling. I started to feel like it was a little long but the ending roped me back in and I was completely hooked, like couldn’t put it down hooked. I loved Sully’s character development (plus those dreamy forearms 😏) and Cassie is the type A, hard working girl that I instantly connected with. Obsessed with Misty Springs and can’t wait to go back for Book 3!! 🩵

I love romance books with a HEA and this book sure kept me on my toes. It wasn’t head first fall in love end of story. There were parts I wanted to scream and just tell them it will work out and to get there act together and parts I laughed out loud (got some strange looks but totally worth it) well written. The details of characters and the scene didn’t leave any lingering questions about what was going on. Definitely a 5 star romance read for me!

I received this one as an ARC since I loved the first book in this series, and this was no exception - I even went so far as to not read into which characters this one was based on to make it a little more fun - and I was pleasantly surprised by which two it was. I loved Sully so much, the way he finally figured out what he wanted his life to be and what matters the most was something that I could relate to.

ALL. THE. EMOTIONS. 😭❤️ I seriously could not put this one down!

The first book was amazing, and this one was even better! The character growth, the small-town vibes, the romance, the banter… 🤌🏼 And the spice?! 🌶️🔥 Literally the perfect amount.

I laughed, I swooned, I got way too emotionally attached to these characters 😂 and now I’m not ready to leave this little world. A must read series.

Loved it! I was so excited to be able to go from Book 1 and into Book 2 with the Advanced Reader Copy. Loved all the emotions and twists and turns that come with this story. Could not put it down! Don’t want the Misty Springs Series to end 🩵

Juniper Nicole has hit it out of the ball park again! I laughed, I cried, I got frustrated. She has made the main female character someone who you can really relate to, always feeling like you have the world on your shoulders, and if it isn't done by you, it isn't done right.

[Dee Wilson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just finished and absolutely loved it- gave me all the feels! Can’t wait for book 3!!!

Amazing. I love small-town life and I just feel so immersed in these books! I thought book 1 was awesome and wasn’t sure how she could top it, but guess what… she did!! 😍

[Erin Edwards · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved traveling back to Misty Springs! I feel as if I'm in the Scooby gang right with them. This was a fun read and I can't wait to see what's next!

Book 2 did not disappoint! I love Misty Springs! This series is so well written, I already can’t wait for the next one. I really enjoyed the tension between the main characters and just the right amount of spice….
