Dillon was a great guy, and basically up for anything which means Ellie should not be provoking her man:
“A little. I should probably see a little more though. I mean, I can’t very well make a commitment to a p**** I’ve never—holy crap.”
With the Mountie pants in a heap around his ankles—along with his boxers—Dillon gestured to the goods like a game show model. “Better?”
I really did love this book, I loved Dillon.

Ellie is living in River Bend and is brought home to Sapphire Falls but the death of her uncle Miles. Although Ellie hasn’t seen or spoken to Miles in several years, Miles apparently didn’t hold that against her. As Ellie has been called to Miles’ lawyer’s office because she is listed as a beneficiary in his will.
Miles gift is half of his belongings, including the house but she has no idea who this Dillon guy is that’s listed as the other beneficiary. Dillon is the son of Miles long time girlfriend. Dillon helped Miles build the house that now belongs to him and Ellie, he’s not sure how it’s going to work out but he’s really hoping to be able to stay on the property.
These two have baggage that has put them where they are. Both are running from their past, can they let each other in and find a way to heal
I enjoyed this novella probably because I’ve enjoyed the River Bend series. When I read the book I didn’t really realize it was the bridge to the two series and from that perspective it does a very nice job of moving the surroundings and introducing new characters but the book suffered the same flaw that I find in so many novellas. It just simply lacked the depth and emotion that happens with really good story telling. Molly is completely capable of creating it, I’ve read it before it the River Bend series. I look forward to more of her writing and will just take this book for what it is.

I Love Molly McLain's River Bend Series and to have it mixed with my all time favourite Sapphire Falls is like Christmas morning for me!!! In this short novella we meet Ellie from River Bend and Dillon from Sapphire Falls, and by god it is one spectacular encounter. Ellie is a total spitfire who has come to Sapphire falls because her uncle Miles has passed away and left her something in his will. Dillon a wounded cop loves Sapphire Falls and the house he helped Miles build. When these two meet the chemistry zaps and pops between them is pretty HOT!! They are both totally not what the other expected and turns out pretty funny. This novella made me laugh and I could feel the emotions from both Dillon and Ellie as their relationship progressed. Another fab addition to the Sapphire Falls Series

Once again I am awed by Molly's writing!! I just fell in love with Ellie and Dillon and did not want their story to end. I didn't know what to expect with this one but it was awesome. The flow of the story was perfect and I couldn't read it fast enough. Ellie's uncle passes away and he's left her his house... well not only her but Dillon too. So, she goes to Sapphire Falls to confront Dillon and figure everything out... especially her heart! ♡♡
Dillon grew up with Miles in over half of his life and now he's gone... but Miles' niece might be the perfect person for him to move on with. He's off duty from an on the job injury and a body of mashed up emotions...
I'm ready to Crack open another Molly McLain book just to feel her writing once again!!

FABTABULOUS!!!! I just finished Molly McLain’s latest release Going All In. This exceptional book is part of the latest releases in Erin Nicholas’s Sapphire Falls Kindle World books.
Ms. McLain brought Ellie, one of her characters from her River Bend series to Sapphire Falls where she meets Dillon. Uncle Miles, whom she had not seen in ten years, has bequeathed his full estate to herself and Dillon, Miles’ “step-son”. Dillon is a cop who received a very raw deal from his police department. Dillon shot and killed a homeless man. The homeless man that was holding a gun to an innocent bystander’s head, and had already shot Dillon twice. However, Dillon was still the scape goat for the department and four months later, is still on administrative leave. Ellie and Dillon each have ill-conceived opinions about each other, however, when they finally meet, they both realize they were wrong, and first a friendship starts to develop, then love. I loved this whole story, but I think my favorite part is when Ellie opens and reads the letter from Uncle Miles and she reads…….. Stop, not spoilers from me. You will need to read the book to find out everything Uncle Miles tells Ellie in the letter. I will say this, I think Ellie’s father is an as.., butt wipe and does not deserve a daughter like Ellie. I LOVE the way Dillon stood for Ellie.
I myself discovered Ms. McLain brilliant story telling abilities through NetGalley when I requested Can’t Walk Away a little over a year ago. I was blown away then regarding her story telling. She has a way that draws the reader into her story within the first few pages.
I was gifted with an ARC of this phenomenal book for an honest review.
You, yes you, you have read the blurb, and some of the reviews, now go exercise that index finger and One-Click this book.
Thank you for reading my review.

A very sweet story with Molly McLain’s trademark super sexy times.
Although this story is part of the Sapphire Falls world you don’t need to know anything about those books to enjoy this one. I haven’t read any of them yet and didn’t notice anything confusing at all when I read this one.
Ellie unexpectedly inherits half of her paternal uncle’s estate; she hadn’t had any contact with him for several years. The other surprise is the person who inherits the other half – Dillon, 'a man who considers himself her uncle’s step-son. Ellie didn’t even know that her uncle had been in a serious relationship.
When they first meet Dillon doesn’t want to like Ellie; he sees her as an interloper and expects her to be a cold and unfeeling person. He pretty quickly realizes that this is not the case.
The two of them hit it off and begin to open up to each other. This story captivated me from the very beginning and I didn’t want to put it down. Fortunately – since I started it late at night – it’s a novella length story. For such a short story it’s amazing how much character development Molly was able to provide.
She has written very sweet characters with just the right amount of angst. While the sexy time doesn’t really get hot and heavy until chapter 7 (and there are only 8 chapters) rest assured that all of the descriptive stuff you’ve come to expect in Molly’s books is still there.
This story is now one of my favorite Molly McLain stories. I loved the epilogue!

Ellie Morris's father left her and her family on the day of her graduation. After living with the pain and confusion for so many years Ellie finds herself stuck between a rock and a hard place when her father's brother names her in his will.
What should have been a quick in and out situation quickly gets out of control when she looks into the eyes of the sexy and irresistible Dillon Whitmore. Dillion loves everything about Sapphire Falls because he can hide away from his past and everyone's judging eyes.
Luckily for him Ellie knows just who he is and she ready to go all in...to prove his innocence and so much more. But everything get's a little bit crazy when their skeletons from the past wont stay hidden and corrupts their future. Can Ellie prove Dillions innocence and keep her heart safe at the same time or will she suffer another heartbreak? Read and find out!
I received this book as an ARC from the Author for my honest review.
I really liked everything that this book had to offer. It was funny, romantic and emotional with characters that kept you wanting more. Now to be 100% honest I wish this book was just a little bit longer. I felt that although things were not left hanging when it came to Ellie and Dillion, I wanted more of an explanation about what was going on with another character in the book. (Sorry guys no spoilers)
Overall this was a great book and is selling for 1.99 on Amazon Kindle. I can not wait for what else Sapphire Falls has to offer.

May and June were kind of a mess for me as I was in the middle of a child getting married - hard to call a 31 year old a child - and a move for myself about 750 miles from where I had been living the past 20 years. I read this novella back then and promptly forgot I read it. It is not a forgettable piece. My mind was just too cluttered with other details.
I love the premise behind this book. Uncle Miles basically reaches back into Ellie's (my maternal grandmother's name, by the way) and Dillon's lives to bring them together. By giving half his estate to each of them, he guaranteed they would need to meet and at least get to know each other enough that they could deal with the estate.
I'm glad I didn't review this book back when I read it. Since then, I have decided, whether she knew it at the time or not, my mother has always been pointing me to mountains of Western North Carolina. She gave me a silver bracelet that is heavy enough to require heating to resize it. It fit me perfectly. The bracelet is etched with a mountain sunrise. A year after that she quilted me a wall hanging of a cardinal which is the NC state bird. Now, I see cardinals all the time and sometimes think it is her checking in on how I'm doing.
The book has given me these thoughts along with others. I do hope you pick it up and give it a read.

I love meddling family members... and that's what you get with this story. When Ellie receives word her uncle has passed and left her half his house, she's saddened by the years that have passed and confused by the terms her uncle left. She gets half the house. The other half? To some man she's never met.
Dillon looked to Miles as a father, and considered him his step-father. Before Ellie comes rolling to town, he has pretty negative feelings of her. His thought patterns had a bit of a cockiness to them, and his disdain for her was more than evident. She goes and proves him wrong nearly immediately though with a proposal for him.
Watching these two fall together when neither were looking for it, was a fun journey. Molly McLain has the ability to write extremely sweet romances, and she doesn't let word count falter the journey. I enjoyed seeing Dillon's journey to healing, as well as Ellie's journey toward an emotional healing. They certainly had some fun, 'young' moments that made their romance on the pages seem incredibly real.
A lovely addition of the McLain collection, as well as a great addition to the Sapphire Falls world!

Going All In. It is the perfect title for this book. It tells the story of two people who are willing to take a chance, take a risk, and go all in.
I had totally forgotten about Ellie to be honest. She was Josh's booty call in Can't Shake You. I never thought she'll get her own story, but I'm glad that she did. Because after reading this book I realize that she deserves a happy ending. She has seen some shitty things in life and it's high time, she had something good in her life.
Dillon was the perfect guy for Ellie. He had his own share of scars, but despite it all he was a great guy.
The best thing about this book was that both Ellie and Dillon made each other stronger. While Ellie was willing to and did fight for Dillon and his reputation, Dillon too was willing to stand up for her in front of her father, who abandoned her at a young age.
In true Molly style, this book was well written and she managed to develop the characters and give them depth in around just a 100 pages, give or take a few. I did want this story to be a little longer though, to know more about the characters. I'm greedy like that. This book also makes me want to pick up the Sapphire Falls series and check them out.

Going All In is a novella bringing a little bit of River Bend to Sapphire Falls.
Ellie is the beneficiary of half of her late uncle's estate. The uncle she has barely seen since her father walked out on her and her mother. The lawyer informs her of the person holding the other half of the estate but she is responsible for all communication with him after this point.
Dillon is on leave from the police department as a result of an on the job injury. He just wants his life back. He wants to live peacefully at the home he helped Miles build in Sapphire Falls. He has zero desire to deal with Miles's uptight niece that's never even bothered to show her face, even when her uncle was sick and dying.
What happens when Ellie can see through the games Dillon is playing against himself? Can he handle someone that calls him on his own crap? Can Ellie trust a man after what her father did to her?
This novella was awesome but like all novellas, it leaves you wanting more. I'd definitely recommend this one!!!

Molly McLain does it again, this time with a Sapphire Falls Kindle World novella! I love how Molly combines Ellie, a Riverbend character, with Dillon, a Sapphire Falls transplant. Loved it!
Ellie comes to town when her Uncle Miles passes away as he has left property and other items to both Ellie and Dillon. Uncle Miles has a stepson, Dillon, who is also in town due to a work-related injury. He's come back to Sapphire Falls to recuperate, but to also decide what he wants to do with his life. He's come back to his "comfort" place and made friends while in Sapphire Falls--Phoebe & Joe, and Ed to name a few. Then Ellie drives up and Dillon can't help but think Ellie is a part of his future....Uncle Miles was quite the matchmaker.
This is a novella, so it's a quick read. I thoroughly enjoyed this novella and highly recommend it! It ends with a HEA and it's not a cliffhanger! Yay! This is a must read for anyone who enjoys Sapphire Falls or Riverbend novels!

I like these stories because they combine characters from the author's series into Sapphire Falls. This one has characters from Molly McLain's River Bend series (which I absolutely love).
This one involves Ellie and Dillon - co-heir's of Ellie's uncle's home. An uncle that Ellie hadn't seen or kept in touch with for the past decade. It is obvious that Miles (the uncle) had a plan in mind for these two.
The reaction they have to each other is humorous and the inner monologues are quite entertaining. Dillon is a cop who is on administrative leave and Ellie is a reporter. Both are hesitant to get close, but are pulled together anyway. There are many fateful reasons they should be together - and that was my favorite part of the story.
This is a cute, quick read. Her books always entertain and this is no exception.

When Ellie Morris’s father ran out on her ten years ago, she lost touch with his side of the family. Imagine her surprise when she learns Uncle Miles, despite their time apart, left her with half of his estate in Sapphire Falls. Wounded police officer Dillon Whitmore loves Sapphire Falls and the much needed peace the town has brought to his life. He wants nothing more than to settle down in the home he helped build for his dear friend and father figure, Miles.
Neither are aware they have both inherited Miles' estate. Dillon heard all about Ellie from Miles, but is blown away by Ellie herself. She is still hurt by her father and more secrets come to light that drive a wedge between them.

My problem with novellas is that they are so short you don't get the same connection with the characters like you do in a full length book. Not so with this one! Molly manages to bring her unique style of writing into Sapphire Falls & it fits perfectly. Dillon was a wounded police officer who came to Sapphire Falls to recuperate & ended up helping Miles build a house. Ellie had lost touch with her Uncle Miles & was surprised to learn he left her anything. Ellie & Dillon each inherited 50% of the house.
In such a short amount of time, Molly manages to completely pull you into the story, get you involved with the characters & help them get their HEA. There are some hiccups along the way to their ending. Loved the characters, the River Bend connection & the entire book!

What great quick read. I love everything Molly writes and this instant love is no exception. Ellie lost track of her father's side of the family when he walked away from his family, but since her uncle passed away and requested her appearance she wasn't quite sure what to expect, but it sure wasn't Dillon. Dillon is uncle Miles stepson and knows all about Ellie but he had a certain idea of how she was and boy was he wrong. When they are together it's easy, but when a truth is revealed Ellie isn't sure if Dillon is who she thought at all. Will Ellie ever understand the meaning behind what Dillon did and will Dillon fight for it. I truly loved it.

Ellie's uncle Miles has recently passed away. She has to go to Sapphire Falls since she was on his will. She discovers that she now owns half of his house which she thinks is a mistake. The other half of the house was left to a man Dillion she doesn't know and has never heard of. Ellie heads over to the house to meet Dillion. They have to figure out how to manage the problem of them each owning half the house. Sparks fly and they soon realize that they just can't stop thinking about each other. What will happen with the house situation and between Ellie and Dillion? Did Uncle Miles purposely set this up for Ellie and Dillion to get together? This was a very sweet novella. I really enjoyed reading this book.

A great addition to the Sapphire Falls Kindle World!! Molly McLain's Going All In was a sweet but sexy look into two strangers who co-inherit a cabin and its contents that used to belong to Ellie's uncle and Dillon's "stepfather". Their first impressions are all wrong, of course, which starts the journey to getting to know each other. I'm loving all of these novellas in this world!

This is the story of Ellie and Dillon. Ellie's uncle Miles has passed away and left his estate to be split between his niece Ellie and his stepson Dillon. Ellie has had very little contact over the years with her uncle and is shocked by this. Uncle Miles knew what he was doing though. Both Ellie and Dillon are going through some personal issues and become fast friends leaning on one another. Can there be more between them?

I totally didn't want that story to end!! I have a love/hate relationship with novellas. You can never go wrong with short, sweet, and to the point. But then I mean, I completely love Ellie and Dillon and wanted the story to never end! Two lost souls come together to prove that when it's right it's right and nothing can come between them! Uncle Miles definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to Dillon and Ellie! And I just have to say, I love the small town country feel that Molly has in her books! I never want to leave the book because I feel so welcomed by the characters and the town! Another home run for Miss Molly Mclain!!!

I was given a free copy by the author for an honest review.
I loved this book!
Ellie has come to Sapphire falls because an Uncle she lost touch with has left her something. She discovers she now owns half a house and all the land that goes with it.
Dillon owns the other half. Dillon is a cop, injured in the line of duty. The house he inherits was owned by a man he considered his stepfather.
Dillon and Ellie don’t think much of each other at first. As they get to know one another, love blooms. Loved the text messaging between them. Loved how they supported one another.
This was a quick, easy, feel good story. It will leave you with a smile on your face and wanting more.

Another cute story in the Sapphire Falls Kindle World.
The couple in this one are Ellie, a gal in her 20s that has just inherited 1/2 of a house and property belonging to an uncle she had not seen in 10 years, and Dillon Whitmore. Dillon is a police lieutenant current on a leave after being shot in a questionable situation. He is back in Sapphire Falls, where the man he loved as a father, left him the other 1/2 of the property.
They meet and develop a relationship. Both have baggage and issues they must resolve but somehow with each others support they get the opportunity to overcome the obstacles by “going all in”.
Enjoy this delightful story.

Ellie Morris lost touch with her dad's side of the family when he ran out on her 10 years ago. This includes her Uncle Miles, who she used to be extremely close to, as well as him being her godfather. Imagine her surprise when she is summoned to Sapphire Falls for the reading of his will after he passes. She learns at that time that she has a co-heir, wounded police officer Dillon Whitmore. Dillon and Mikes were extremely close. Dillon is determined to hate Ellie on site just due to her lack of contact with her uncle over the past ten years. He's pleasantly surprised when she surpasses all expectations. I loved watching these two fall in love and navigate their way to happily ever after.

Molly never disappoints! I have been captured by every story that Molly writes and Going All In was just as phenomenal. Dillion and Ellie will touch you as you journey with them on their new found love. These two share a chemistry that they both see that they simply can't deny and can't stop. Dillion and Ellie's relationship is refreshing and Molly captures it amazingly leaving you wishing there was a whole lot more.
Molly's writing style gives you everything that is needed for a great story.
Passion, humor, vulnerability, camaraderie, and so much more packed into every book. Molly is one of my most favorite Authors.
I received this as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Going All In by Molly McLain....Another dynamite story in the Saphhire Falls Kindle World. This story is what you expect from Molly McLain, flows nicely in this well written novella. Dillon is a hot wounded cop that needs a break, so he goes to Sapphire Falls and Ellie's uncle passes away and leaves property to her in Sapphire Falls. These two have chemistry all the way through, can they make it work out. You will want to pick up this wonderful book to escape your everyday life for a little while. I received a complimentary book for an honest review.

Going All In is a super quick, fun and sexy novella set in the Sapphire Falls Kindle World. Ellie and Dillon have great chemistry from the start and Molly McLain gets the reader invested in their romance from the start. When they meet, both think the other has an ulterior motive so they are skeptical of each other but they quickly realize that they were wrong. There are a few bumps along the way but they eventually get their HEA. This is a great novella to read when you want something light and easy with a bit of spice!

An okay addition to the Sapphire Falls world
I thought this was an okay addition to the Sapphire Falls Kindle World, but way too short to get fully invested in the characters. I know that Kindle World books are novellas and not full length books for the most part, but I felt this one met the minimum required number of words and then just cut off. The drama with the heroine's father was not fully resolved or explained, so why include it? Why not use that space to further develop the main story? The abrupt ending was jarring and disappointing.

Another fantastic addition to the Sapphire Falls Kindle World Series!!!
Molly drew me in from the beginning, with an unexpected inheritance, split between two strangers. I loved that both Ellie and Dillon were surprised at how wrong they were about each other at first, and how quickly they adapted. They helped each other overcome the demons of their past, and Ellie's past coming back to visit her had me in tears. A great read that you should definitely one click!!!
