A refreshing change of scenery! It's not as often to focus on marriages instead of coming to terms with identity/ "getting the girl" in F/F romance- & that's one of the reasons why ALL FOR LOVE was such a treat to read. This is my first Hawkins exposure & I look forward to reading her other works. Although this isn't fast-paced, Hawkins' lovely prose keeps you intrigued throughout to find out what happens to the MCs.
Jaz & Dani have been married for 10 years. Jaz, an artist, starts to wonder if the romance has begun to die in their relationship, if they've became too comfortable in their marriage. Dani, an accountant, is working herself to death & at first cannot see the same issues as Jaz. Eventually, something has to give & when Dani loses her job she realizes she doesn't know what to do with her life, who she actually is. This is due to Dani's upbringing/ her parent's effect & how she was a people pleaser. Now she doesn't know what will make her happy & their relationship starts to hit the rocks. Will it be a slippery slope neither woman can overcome or will they discover how to get back on track?
I really enjoyed how different Dani & Jaz are & how they each work on themselves to try to be better for the other. This is a very sweet story about trying to fight for love, to not just throw in the towel. Their parents play a significant part in this as well, which I thought was nice because I like the whole family aspect. But my absolute favorite part is the ending- it's satisfactory & doesn't make me feel like I wasted my time, something I can rarely say. Overall if you're looking for a quick, cute, genuinely wonderful romance, give this a read.

Great book
I think this story will speak to most couples that have been married or together fire a decade or more. It was a really incredible read.

Too easy
The book never felt like the success took work. They had relationship troubles, and suddenly Dani comes around and wants to fix things it feels too magical for my tastes.

I enjoyed this questionable romance novel.
It kept me in suspense thinking that the controlling parents had taken over the love of this wonderful couple. Very interesting book.>

What a story...
This was a wonderfully written book. I could totally understand the relationship between Jaz and Dani. Being married for 10 years does causes the relationship to get comfortable. Reading this story helped me to understand a bit of my marriage to my wife and how we feel after being together for 12 years and how we have gotten comfortable with each other. I realized that we need to communicate and try to get back to how we were in the beginning. This story inspired me to work on our marriage and relationship. Loved it... thanks for writing this story and providing an insight into what our relationships can become after years of being together.

Nice Change of Pace
Most lesbian romance novels seem to be more about the chase, or finding love, than about life afterward. Having been with my wife for 16+ years, now, I could relate to some of the struggles Jaz and Dani are experiencing.
The story flows well, with a couple of plot twists I didn't anticipate. I think Ms. Hawkins' books just continue to get better.

Not a bad read
I've read a few books by this author and they are nice stories. They don't dig too deep, but they are sweet and light reads. I appreciated this one in particular because it wasn't a story of girl meets girl and they get together, it was about a relationship that has existed for over 15 years and where they are now.
