Irresistibly Yours
Marriage is no picnic. At least the one Vivian Emerson shared with her late husband hadn’t been. Unfortunately, the devastation Craig had brought into her life didn’t ended with his death. Not only did he leave Vivian without closure, he had to go and die in a way that made her the talk of the whole state of South Carolina and beyond. Now her daughter wants nothing to do with her because of him. She would just stick with the single life from now on, thank you very much.
For the last fourteen years since the death of his wife, Bo Manning never even considered wanting another woman in his life. That is until he comes to the rescue of a certain woman with haunting, jade green eyes. Despite Vivian’s resolve not to give her heart to another man, Bo sets out to patiently woo her into the loving relationship he is offering.
Irresistibly Yours reveals God’s fervent effectual call in the form of a classic romance.

3.5 stars
First, I must say that Bo Manning – the hero of our story – is quite swoony and seems to be quite the toe-curling kisser! And the fact that he’s an older hero (NOT old) gives his swooniliciousness some maturity which is also quite yummy. He’s also just an all-around good guy, with a tender heart and a close relationship with Jesus. He values Vivian from the moment he meets her and his gentle wooing of her is a sweet picture of Jesus’ pursuit of each of us.
Vivian has had a lot of heartache in the past few years, and she’s slowly starting to heal. She’s really trying to figure out who she is now and, in many ways, embracing who she’s always wanted to be. Her relationship with her two best friends (one of whom is her sister, the other a woman who shares her faith) is closeknit but not without occasional strain, and like Vivian the other two women are authentically flawed as well. (Also, these two friends as well as a bevy of quirky and endearing characters at Walden Beach have great potential for future books in the series)
It’s not all tragedy-recovery or sweet romance, though. There’s also a healthy dose of humor that may leave you chuckling out loud. Aaron’s corny but hilarious jokes, for instance. Or the neon sign incident – my personal favorite!
Irresistibly Yours is a sweet story of second-chance romance that also presents a tender picture of Jesus’ pursuit of a relationship with each one of us. Humor and romance share the page with heartfelt emotion and friendship. Bo and Vivian are relatable characters you’ll want as friends (though… did they have to seem so old?? Vivian is only 44, yet I pictured her much older in my mind), and their passel of supporting characters feel like a great group to hang out with as well. The story didn’t necessarily reach out and grab me, but overall it’s a very pleasant read and I’m looking forward to more adventures at Walden Beach

full review on Faithfully Bookish
Irresistibly Yours is an irresistibly delicious story! While most contemporary romances feature couples in their mid-twenties or thirties, it is refreshing and exciting to come upon a gem like this one with a vibrant prospective "second-chance at love" couple.
Vivian Emerson has been through the wringer thanks to her late husband and grief-stricken daughter. Bo Manning is a pillar of strength and natural-born protector and quite attractive at that. The Walden Beach community is a sweet little resort town and oh so appealing. This romance is full of humor, healing, and chivalrous wooing. I'm looking forward to more stories from this author!

Irresistibly Yours, written by Andrea Boyd, is the picture of a classy romance!
Loved the way Boyd brought her fun pen out when she wrote this romance. Not a Christian romance in the perfect gift box.
I loved the fact that this isn't a young love-at-first-sight kind of read and shows how marriage isn't for wimps.
Favorite character -- by far, Bo! Boy, if I have a friend who has to go what Vivian has gone through to get to this point in her life...I want a Bo waiting at the other end to woo her! Sure, not every romance is picture perfect nor are these characters. They've had the hard knocks and yet still haven't lost faith that God is in control.
Lovely read! Definitely a great read for middle-agers who want to read something in their age bracket without feeling too old. But also great for any age to see that God isn't finished with anyone yet!

I love a book with characters who have a bit of life experience (especially since I have some life experience myself). And in Andrea Boyd delivers in Irresistibly Yours. Vivian and Bo have each lived through some difficulties—loss of a spouse, estrangement from family, and more.
As Vivian endeavors to find herself after humiliation and tragedy, Bo knows exactly what he wants and proves he’s the best type of man. A man who commits to a friendship while placing anything more in God’s hands.
This is a book about second chances and about leaving our futures—and those of the ones we love—in God’s hands.
Set in a quaint Carolina beach town amongst tourist shops, sea, and sand, Irresistibly Yours invites you to visit but beckons you to stay. The good news is there are plenty of people to write about. Let’s hope we get to return to Walden Beach and it’s eclectic mix of residents.

Cannot wait for more!

January 4, 2018One conversation with a friend plus a series of dreams and Bo Manning was born. Oh man, is he good-looking! And sweet. And he’s faithful. He’s a great dancer, and wow, is he a great kisser. Who could resist, right?
Well, Vivian Emerson gives it her best shot. After everything her late husband put her through, she has no desire to try again. Will she be able to stick with her plan for the single life?
I hope you enjoy this Southern contemporary romance with a beach setting. It’s about friendship, love’s second chance, and reflects God’s irresistible call.

Irresistibly Yours is a romance like no other. One, the couple is in their 40s and I absolutely love that! Second, their's a sweetness and slow build that has you anticipating on every page. This is a great book and a promise to a greater series.

"I'm not interested in another marriage. The one I had almost did me in. "
It seems that Vivian Emerson has met a super hero. Coming to her rescue on more than one occasion, Bo Manning seems less and less like a stranger, and more and more like a modern day superman. His calm, genuine demeanor makes Vivian ponder how he might fit into God's plan for her new beginning in Walden Beach, South Carolina. The death of her unfaithful husband dramatically tilted her world, estranging her daughter and leaving Vivian with a restlessness that she doesn't know how to dissolve.
Bo Manning has been a widower for quite some time, never even having a desire to date again, quite content to be a father and grandfather while managing his business, "Manning's Garage". When a lovely out-of-towner gets stuck in a busy intersection, Bo answers her call for help, only to wonder if he has just met "the rest of his life".
Imagine warm sunshine on your face and long walks on the beach, as Andrea Boyd sends you on a delightful excursion into the world of second chances.

My review is 4.5 Stars
What a sweet story about second chances! It was nice to read a story about a couple in their 40s.
I really liked Vivian. Despite being badly wronged, she showed nothing but kindness and grace. What she did with the money she made from selling Craig’s car was pretty amazing. She had some serious trust issues, but after the way her husband had treated her, that was to be expected.
My favorite thing about Bo was that he painted his wife’s toenails when she could no longer do that for herself. I also thought it was great the way he was so focused that he didn’t let distractions get in the way of him achieving his goals.
Without giving any details as to why, because it would spoil the story, Lucas is possibly my favorite character.
I love that God taught her a spiritual lesson through a stray cat. I know that God loves cats and having been adopted by a stray cat myself, I related quite well.

I love books that are entertaining but also make me think. This was one of those books. The characters were believable and entertaining. The plot was thoughtful and well written. A perfect lazy day read.

Vivian Emerson's life looked perfect until tragedy blew it apart. Instead of turning to each other in their grief, she and her husband grew apart. After nearly 10 years of that, her husband dies in spectacular fashion on their reconciliation weekend, leaving her to endure the sneers of the whole state because of the way he died. After a year of closing herself off from life, Vivian decides a change is in order. First stop? The hairdresser, where she loses six inches of hair. Second stop? Her grandmother's duplex on Walden Beach. What she needs is some beach therapy and to sell her husband's vintage GTX. What she gets is a broken-down car in a Walmart parking lot, and a gorgeous mechanic with strong shoulders to cry on.
Bo Manning's wife has been gone for fourteen years. He hasn't dated since, in spite of women practically throwing themselves in his path. When he's called out to pick up a GTX at Walmart, he first notices the amazing car, then, the green-eyed, gorgeous woman driving it. When she falls apart, what's a guy to do but offer a hug of reassurance? He knows she's a tourist so he'll probably never see her again, but, wow, she's the woman he'd want to break his dating fast with, if she was staying.
After a week at the beach, Vivian decides to move there. She had inherited the house, after all, and, as an author, she can work from anywhere. Can she keep her "no dating, no men" rule when it's Bo who decides to woo her? Traumatized by the actions of her husband, she is overly cautious where other men are concerned. What will it take for her to see that Bo is the definition of faithful?
I read Persuaded first and loved it, then realized that Irresistibly Yours was actually the first book in that series. This one was, if possible, even more beautiful than the first one I read. Every woman who endures what Vivian did in her marriage, should have a Bo Manning at the other end! He was an amazing hero for this book - strong yet gentle, loving, kind, thoughtful, and it didn't hurt that he was gorgeous.
I absolutely recommend both of these books! If you read them, though, start with this one THEN read Persuaded. You will enjoy everything from laughter to tears to "Awwww" moments.

This is the first book by Andrea Boyd that I have read and it was a wonderful journey. It is a fun book, filled with a nice plot, strong and lovable characters, and a great faith-filled theme of redemption, forgiveness, and God’s gentle yet persistent and relentless pursuit of our hearts.
Vivian is a widow, having been hurt by her deceased husband and now estranged from her only daughter. She moves to the beach town to the home she inherited from her grandmother to start a new chapter in her life. She’s spunky, creative, loving, kind, and gentle but has a lot of trust issues regarding men. Bo is a mechanic who’s been widowed for the last 14 years and remained happily single. He’s faithful, kind, thoughtful, loyal, loving, passionate and tender-hearted. Mutual friends and circumstances bring the two together and Bo must woo her slowly to gain her trust. I loved that the author illustrates how God woos our hearts through Bo’s patient, gentle, and loving courtship of Vivian. I also loved that the main characters are a bit older (in their forties) and able to see through more mature eyes.
Anyone who enjoys contemporary Christian romance will love this book.

I loved everything about this book. I loved all of the characters, I even loved to hate Kent lol. I loved how Izzy got even with Kent for hurting her sister. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed this book. When I think that I have read the best book ever by Andrea Boyd I read the next book by her and I seem to like it better than the last but I think I just like it in another way because every one of the books that I have read so far have been absolutely amazing. I am binge reading all of her books right now. I can’t wait to read the next one but it is late and I have to drive home tomorrow so I am going to have to sleep sometime. I just had to finish this book before going to sleep. Andrea Boyd your books are absolutely fantastic. I have gotten my sister into reading them and she is just as excited as I am about them. Great job.

Book is light and interesting.
The book is romantic fiction.the characters are well developed
The relationship with bo and vivian shows pain from past hurt. Bo is patient as Vivian struggles to come to grips with her many positive and negative feelings.I like how the author ties in the need for Vivian to forgive Craig and her estranged daughter. When her daughter appears after years of np relationship Vivian is forced to ask herself to forgive her when she says sorry and says shrubs pregnant.what would you do if someone hurt you.
Would you forgive?would you move on from the past and forgive and start new relationships? THE Book wants the reader to ask these questions

Looking for a great beach read? I loved this sweet romance set on fictional Walden Beach, South Carolina. One draw for me was that the protagonists, Bo and Vivian, were in there 40's, which is unusual for a romance book and shows love and be found at any age. I love the constant Christian thread throughout the book and how the characters often prayed about the situations they encountered. Likewise, I love that Bo decides to "woo" Vivian the way Christ woos us. I look forward to the next book in the series and more books by Andrea Boyd.

I enjoyed reading a romance novel with heroines who were a little older - in their 40s - though sometimes the story made me feel they were in their 60s. (Maybe that's because as someone nearly as old as the hero, I have a preschooler and other young children in the house, not grandchildren!)
An enjoyable story, not too heavy, with themes of forgiveness and not judging others. Overall, a pleasant read set at the beach.

A book that has real life situations that some people deal with everyday. Burned by marriage Vivian didn’t think she ever wanted to be married again. Wonder if Bo can woo her and win her over? Read and find out.
An enjoyable and entertaining read. If you like a good Christian romance this book is for you!
I received a free copy from the publisher but all opinions are my own.

Vivian is letting loose all the frustration she had with her late husband. Driving his car, and without power steering was a chore, and then the brakes didn’t work. Google to have someone come, she meets BO,.Being a mechanic he is in ah of the classic car, then seeing her with her new hair cut, also. They both have lost their mates, and a beautiful story of how love comes again for them.

Good read
Enjoyed the story about Vivian and Bo. Vivian has endured pain, loss and embarrassment with the death of her husband under sensational circumstances. Bo has been alone for 14 years following the death of his beloved wife. Can these two find God's direction for the future?

This was a good book about someone rebuilding their life after the betrayal of their spouse. Many people look for stories about characters that are not young and just starting out. This one would fit that bill. I found myself connecting with the main character, as she struggled with fears of what if, when someone else was interested in her.

Page turning
This book was a great one! I enjoyed the process the author took to reveal the background information on the people involved. I liked the setting and the entire storyline. I would have loved the ending to go a little longer but I’m looking forward to reading the second book about another one of the characters.

I've enjoyed every book I've read of Andrea's. This was no exception. She slowly revealed the cause of Craig's death and circumstances surrounding the demise of his and Vivian's marriage in an interesting way instead of revealing it all in the beginning. The group of church friends added elements of drama. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.

Grieving can take many forms and healing through it can take time. This is a book that displays it in a real way without bogging down. The book feels complete even though it is the first one in a series. I went on to read the others in the series and enjoyed them as well.
August 26, 2023
I actually read the second in the series first and enjoyed it so much I had to see how Vivian and Bo got together. Glad I did. Vivian’s background was difficult and broken, Bo would be perfect for her if she would just let him. Loved the emphasis of looking to God for directions.

Good story
I always enjoy a good second chance story. The handles the topic of judging others by circumstances we might not understand.

Irresistibly Yours is a book about a second chance for happiness sprinkled with forgiveness, acceptance, and trust.
Vivian is a widow finally ready to move on with her life. She is making many changes in her life including the decision that she isn’t willing to chance another relationship. God has other plans and puts Bo in her path. Bo has been a widower for some time and has never had any interest in another relationship until he meets Vivian. I was right there with Vivian all the way completely understanding where she was coming from but very glad that things turned out the way they did.
It is so refreshing to read a book about “older” and wiser people who have already lived but still have lots of living left to do.
I did receive a copy of this book from the author.

I enjoyed this book about a woman who is recovering and moving on from a marriage that ended badly. Vivian moves to the beach for her new beginning and meets new friends who help her move on with her life, including a new man Bo. It is a sweet story of the Lord's redemption.
