Nobles of Sweet Rapids #2
Noble Surrender
He's one of the hottest celebrity chefs in Vegas. But when 'bad boy' Ian Noble returns home to Sweet Rapids, he meets his match in chemist Giselle Warren.
Giselle doesn't date 'bad boys'. Or co-workers. So of course when Ian shows up to help his family's business, her rules seem to fly right out of the window.
The harder they try and fight their passion, the hotter the sparks become. And when they finally combust, neither of them is prepared for the path they end up on.

Loved it
Ian and Giselle just felt like kindred spirits to me. I loved their rapport, their fire, their passion. I could just imagine how hot Ian was and I adored Giselle's spunk. Part of me thought we'd hear something else about Thomas after what he did but I could appreciate Giselle's strength after that incident. Awesome HEA.

Noble are back!
Ian is a bad boy chef from Las Vegas. Unexpected trouble lands him back at home to work at the family business Noble Naturals. The first day back at home Ian thinks he's the boss even though he hasn't worked there for some time. The future leader of the department, Giselle, lets him know otherwise. The Sparks start to fly and the two end up seeing each other.
This was a great story with a few surprises along the way. It held my interest throughout. I loved Isaiah, but I realized I'm here for this bad boy even more. I need an Ian in my life!

I'm in love with Ian, lol!
Gi and Ian were sexy, no-nonsense and perfect for each other. I thought I loved Isaiah, but bad boy Ian did it for me. Another good one Ms Russ! Can't wait for the next one!

Chemistry
Bad boy Chef Ian Noble needs his image cleaned after a little indiscretion. After a night in jail, his publicist and his brother Isaiah decide that going home to Sweet Rapids and laying low is what he needs. The first day at the family company he meets feisty chemist Giselle and she doesn't care who he is or what his last name is. These two ooze sexual tension and swear to themselves they'll keep their hands to themselves... until they can't. They casually start seeing each other and "hooking" up, but that zing that only Sweet Rapids can give takes hold. After a successful product testing, the two wake up...married. This latest scandal could actually work in Ian's favor, but he doesn't want to rope Giselle into his mess. She's willing to go along for the ride, but at some point the marriage becomes completely real. I enjoyed the interactions between Ian and Giselle. They were definitely similar in their personalities yet different enough to make them interesting. Their chemistry wasn't forced, but flowed seemlessly. Another great read from Té!

Sweetly Surrender
It is so wonderful how life can be when you sweetly surrender yourself to the love of your life. Ian and Giselle were so similar and so different. However, their passion for each other wins you over. I enjoyed reading their story while catching up with the supporting characters. Now, on to book three.

I love the Nobles!
I enjoyed reading about bad boy Ian finding his love for life. Although the plot of him and Gi getting together just based on the previous book it felt like that is where it was leading.. There were a lot of elements i didn't expect and I really enjoyed the story. Even more so than the first.

This story was better than book one in the series. It was a little less predictable, but some parts of this story did not hold my attention. I skipped some parts of this story after reading 60% percent of it and I’m pretty sure I didn’t miss anything. I just don’t see myself going on to book three. It is a cute story, but not exactly a page turner.

Noble Surrender
Bad boy Ian Noble met his match in every way with Giselle. He was a magnet for getting caught in the spotlight. He's more than a tv chef but his heart is set on having his own tv show. His last stunt found Giselle in the spotlight with him, which led to his surrender. I found this book to be a great fun read.

Wow that couple was just great for one another, Ian and Giselle made things look fun. I love how he was man enough to admit when he was wrong, and apologized right away. Giselle was no punk either, she stood her ground and didn’t mince her words. Great book I can’t wait to read about the baby. This story gets a five star ⭐️ rating.

Wild and Crazy Love
There is only one way to describe Ian Noble and Giselle’s relationship . “Wild and Crazy Love” those two had me shaking my head , gasping and laughing out loud. And without giving anything away I even cried. Book 2 of the Nobles of Sweet Rapids was a beautiful and enjoyable read.

A sweet surrender!
Giselle and Ian were so right for one another! I loved it! It started off as fake but ended up being a whirlwind romance! I'm enjoying the Noble men, now we need Ivy and Isabella's story along with Dana and Aiden for real!

When they weren't looking
Ian and Giselle found love when they least expected it. They were just what each other needed but what's with these people who try and force themselves on you.

Unconventional Love
I loved Ian and Giselle's story! The chemistry is hot and after a night of drinking, they find themselves handcuffed and married. That's not the only predicament they face.

I love the storyline and characters! The bedroom scenes are basic and dry when there are no description of “size” or sex sounds. && That won’t stop me from reading books by this author!😏
