What do you do when the man who you've been with since you were 5 years old, files for divorce and walks away? You go on a road trip and fall instantly in love with a sexy lumberjack!
Easton was pretty much perfection. Celibate, non manwhore. He was looking for someone to settle down and start a family with, not empty one night stands. He was a family man who took over the family lumber business after his father's death.
Laurie was a good heroine. The first couple pages, I thought she was going to be pining after the douche bag who used her to put him through law school. Thankfully, she got over him real quick when she met Easton. I can't hardly blame her. She followed her gut and found the love and family she craved.
- no cheating
-zero ow/om drama
- no pushing away
- no violence of any nature
- secondary characters basically consisted of his brother Lucas and her best friend Josie who hooked up. Unfortunately, we had to hear about what a manwhore Lucas was and how he has slept with every woman in town-YUCK! Unless he was not with anyone else after his night with Josie, I might be skipping that one.
- great epilogue 1 year and 5 years out

A sweet sexy over the top instalove read. Alpha hot lumberjack man and divorced heroine get together and sparks fly. I loved Easton he made all Laurie's dreams come true. Laurie was adorable, a very sweet and loving heroine. The love scenes were so steamy they could make a stripper blush. The ending with their 4 kids melted my heart! Totally made me swoon.
I am guessing next book is with Easton's brother and Laurie's best friend. Not sure I will read that since they are both whores! lol

OTT insta-love, it requires a great suspension of disbelief for a contemporary romance. H/h meet and have sex after 5 minutes of chatting about how hot they find each other. Hero says I love you within 24 hrs and decides heroine is his woman forever. Heroine basically says the same thing. This is a novella and the sexy times are quite hot and the epilogue is nice.

If I was asked to describe this book in two words it would be HOT DAMN! If you are after a book that is quick, easy to lose yourself in and so hot and steamy it will make your toes curl then head on down to Wolf Creek because it is the place to be. Easton is a man who sees what he wants and goes for it and Laurie is just the one for him. Being newly divorced from a man who not only broke her heart, her confidence and all the promises he made Laurie may have just stumbled on to a man who would do anything to make her smile. Absolute HEA and a great light read that will leave you smiling and satisfied.

I just love HEA, Easton and Laurie definitely fell fast, but when it's right it's right. And you grab onto that feeling and don't let go. And ya you sometimes have to go through some shitty times to get where your meant to be. But in the end it's all worth it if you get your true HEA. William was just an ass and wish Easton would of handled his ass but then again he's not worth it. Can't wait to if Lucas gets a story with josie. Loved this spicy romance.
November 25, 2017
For someone who just got her heart ripped apart you are surely moving fast. As fast as a lightning. So much for a life lesson.
Unreal.
That's all I can see in this whole book.

Eh, I didn't like how the heroine went off on her best friend for expressing her reservations over a day long relationship. Also, I didn't like she her inner dialogue about how her new husband was so great when she tells us twice how great her first husband was....at first. All relationships are great at first. Instaloves are hard to sell, and comparing one to a bad marriage usually works....if that marriage was bad from the get-go.

Fans of Alexa Riley will love this book!
This book is a very fast read, once you open it you will not stop and you will enjoy the ride. I was sad when I got to the end because I wanted to stay in that world for a while longer. I can't wait for M. Andrews next book!

3.8 Easton and Laurie have that insta-love vibes going and while I do enjoy that I felt things were a bit rushed at times. What I did truly enjoy was how these characters felt more relatable physically, it’s not often you read about curvier woman and men appreciating them for just the way they are. Overall this was a sweet, quickie that can be enjoyed year round.

Hot ass lumberjack....yes please. Laurie is a divorced woman that is down on her luck after said ex-husband kicked her out. Easton is a hot-as-hell lumberjack that had to take over his late fathers business in their small town. Laurie and her incredibly amusing friend Josie are road tripping to her families for the holiday when the roads get bad, so they find a place to stop for the night. They get to the lodge and find out there’s a lumberjack bash...oh, you read that right...it’s like manly men heaven there😉.
When Easton first sees her at his moms lodge...he all but throws her over his shoulder. He’s just utterly in lust...and he is very forward and open about it. He just goes all in, no hesitation and no second guessing. He sees what he wants and goes for it. These two had so much heat and they just fit together. When they are together, it seems like they have always been together...just meant to be. And they are so damned lusty, these two can’t get enough of each other. I absolutely loved it. Pretty sure Easton could be a rival contender for King of the dirty talkers....that man. Dibs, he’s also so damn sweet and thoughtful. He ask her to stay awhile and, of course she’s smart and never leaves.
This book was really funny with a whole lot of heat. Insta-love, safe read, some baby batter, swoon worthy alpha, hea & epilogue...all my favorite things in a book. This may be one of my favorite M. Andrews books...and that’s saying something.

This was a great super hot quick read. Absolutely everything the author promised with the insta love and super steamy sex and the well deserved Happy Ending. I really liked this book in that it was an alpha hero who knew what he was looking for, no games honest and upfront. The heroine was maybe a bit down on herself in the beginning (I think we've all been there) but by the end she was pretty kick ass herself and I thought it was a great match and she deserved it after what she'd been through. It could be longer yeah, but sometimes you need the quick fix and this did deliver a fast believable story with characters you were happy for by the end. I hope she makes this into a series, I wouldn't mind visiting this sleepy little town again soon and Easton does have some hot lumberjack brothers that deserve a happy ever after too!

This book was face paced over the top 0-100!!! I already felt bad for Laurie she thought she found her soulmate at the age of 5, marrying her childhood bestfriend 6 years of supporting this man taking 2 jobs so he can go to law school so he can dump her when she didn't wanna be a fake plastic wife. Glad she didn't wallow in pitty about the jerk and moved on to our boy Easton who is a charming rugged man who was all about our girl, he wanted her giving her the dreams she wanted..
We get no angst, no ow/om.. slight drama from her best friend.. their is another story i hope Easton brother Lucas isn't still a manwhore anymore since he met Josie.

This book was amazing welcome to wolf creek by M. Andrews exceeded all my expectations. I mean come on a hot lumberjack who wants to give u the world who wouldn’t want that... I fell head over heels in love with Easton and Laurie’s story. I of course wish it was longer but who wouldn’t just a little more on the beginning of them would have been amazing... it had of course a hot alpha as do all her stories and a sweet yet strong women.
This book is a perfect short super steamy read for the holidays I finished it within a hour of picking it up and loved every second of it. I can not wait for the next books in this series I know they will be just as amazing as this one.

Sigh Alpha lumberjack insta-love!
When brave Laurie is left, high and dry, thanks to her wuss of an ex husband, her bestie talks her into an adventure that leads her to a small town that looks like Christmas wonderland. Insert his hotness in all his glory and Santa suit ;) Easton, start swooning ladies for the beard, plaid and ruggedness. Is that a word, who cares.
"you taste like heaven and sin all rolled into one" Gah! This man needs to be real right?
"Just when I thought you couldn't get any sexier, you have to look so fine holding our son".

This story is short, fast paced and enjoyable. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I hated that Laurie had been hurt by love. I wanted to kick her ex husband for what he did to her. That being said, if he hadn’t done what he did, Laurie wouldn’t have fallen for Easton. I liked that Laurie got a second chance at love, she deserved it. The chemistry between Laurie and Easton was clear to see. I liked them as a couple.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I hope for more books in this series.

Women are not defined by their significant others or by a divorce, he wants to mold you into a newer, shinier model, hit him where it hurts most...his bank account especially if you worked two jobs to pay for his career.
Now onto, the misery...ahem, story. Laurie and William were married, now they’re not. Josie was their neighbour and her friend proving her weight in gold and forcing her out of hiding.
‘....more curves than a back road’ Easton’s first impression of Laurie.

I understand novellas and the need to get straight to the point. But for me this read like a porno. Cheesy and full of sex. I didn’t get the connection. I mean they literally saw each other and boom they are hot and heavy. There was no build up to make me believe they liked each other, let alone loved each other.
Sorry but not a fan of this one.

Fast and sweet
I love a good short story. With having two toddlers these are usually my go to reads. It's hard to get a good story and to fall in love with the characters in such a short read. But M Andrews pulled it off. Honestly she left me wanting more. It was short, sweet, and sexy. With a great HEA. I hope we get more from Eastons brothers in Wolf Creek.

Cute super insta love story. My only complaint is that I wish we could have seen more of the couple in the early part of their relationship. Again though, super cute and super short love story. Looking forward to more books set in Wolf Creek.
