Jonathon Turner is going to be the death of me.

Maybe not the death of me…but my panties for sure! They seem to disintegrate the moment he touches me. Looks at me. Smiles at me. Talks to me.

It’s more than physical. He’s breaking through an impenetrable wall.

There’s a problem though—he’s younger than me.

Six. Years. Younger.

Let’s not forget he’s also one of my brother’s best friends.

Oh, the other problem I forgot to mention…

I never wanted to fall in love again.

But you know what they say….never say never.

4.5 Stars

The only reason it isn’t 5 stars is due to the the age difference. I don’t mind age differences at all, I welcome them. But I thought they made too much of a big deal about it... just me, personally.

I love this series. I love the Parkers. I can’t wait for the rest of the series! 💚

“In that moment I knew I would forever be addicted to Jonathon’s kisses. To his touch.”

“You’ve ignited my heart, Waylynn.”

“Do you realize you have ignited a spark so deep inside of me, that no matter how much you push me away, it only burns deeper? You can try and disappear, but I swear to God, Waylynn Parker, I will wait for you a thousand years if I have to. There will never be anyone I love like I love you.”

“Sometimes we need to let the hurt bring us to our knees before we can start healing.”

Love Again is an emotionally charged second chance romance that will give you all the feels and will make you fall helplessly in love…

Love Again is the fourth book in the Cowboys and Angels Series and follows the story of Waylynn and Jonathon. Waylynn has burned by love in the past and is desperately trying to move on. A big part of moving on is making her dreams become a reality. First order of business is getting her dance studio off the ground. What she didn’t see coming was Jonathon. Jonathon is everything that she could possibly want. Smart. Handsome. Successful. The problem….He’s her brother’s best friend and he’s six years younger than her. Despite all of that, Waylynn can’t help fall for Jonathon. He is everything that she could ever want, if only Waylynn would be willing to risk her heart again…

Love Again is a passionate and all consuming second chance romance. This story is filled with highs and lows and a love that will last a lifetime. This story was refreshing with a bit of a forbidden flair. I loved the age difference and the electrifying chemistry. I fell in love with Waylynn and Jonathon instantly. Their story swept me off their feet and pulled at my heart. Jonathon is the ultimate swoon-worthy book-boyfriend.

Love Again is so much more than a love story. It’s a story of family and friendship. It is a story of hope and loss. A story of never giving up on your dreams. A story of learning to love again and new beginnings. I was taken on the most amazing emotional journey and I loved every second of it.

~ 5 Let Life Happen Stars ~

What happens when life throws you a wrench and the one dream you have always wanted to come true is no longer attainable….or is it??? Read Love Again by Kelly Elliott to find out how Waylynn handles change.

All I can say is this is another amazing story from Kelly Elliott. I feel like I always say the same things when I read her books, but I can’t get enough of her writing. I absolutely love anything she writes and could rave on and on about her books. Love Again was no different!!

Love Again is the 4th book in her Cowboys and Angels series and it follows Waylynn (The oldest of the Parker Siblings) and Jonathon (Cord’s BFF). Each of these books follow a new couple but we do visit all the previous characters and even some new ones in every book. I would say that the storyline is kind of on going, because she just continues the story of the past couples in the next book. So I wouldn’t recommend reading these books as standalones….I do believe they should be read in order. Plus you get the most out of all the characters and the Parker family if read in order. This book and all the others are written from Dual POV, which I love, by the way. Getting into each of the characters heads is I think how all stories should be told.

As I said earlier this book is about Waylynn and Jonathon. Waylynn is the oldest of the siblings and has just moved back to Oak Springs to be close to family after a nasty divorce. She is also a ballet dancer and is determined to open her own dance studio. Jonathon, Cord’s BFF and family friend, has been hired by Waylynn to build her dance studio. Waylynn and Jonathon have this intense chemistry, but there is one thing holding Waylynn back….he is 6 years younger than her. Can Waylynn get over the age difference?? Will she be able to find Love Again?? What happens when her world is turned upside down…Can Waylynn get her HEA?? Read this book to find out.

I am in love with the whole Parker Family. This series truly rivals Kelly’s Wanted Series which I also love. Kelly’s family saga books are her best writing and I fall in love with each of them. I would HIGHLY recommend all her books!! They are a MUST READ!!!

Kelly has delivered a brilliant read yet again. Each time I think the previous book in the series is my favourite she ups her game and its replaced by her latest release. Once I started this book I was unable to put it down till I had finished, so thank god my husband works nights

After receiving sneak peaks at Waylynn and Jonathan in the previous book I was super excited about this one and Love Again superseded my expectations.

Waylnn in previous books has been quite feisty following her divorce and returning home. She showed her strength with picking herself up and following her dream to open her dance studio. That said I absolutely loved seeing her softer, more vulnerable side when it came to Jonathan. This man was the perfect man for her but she needed to get over her fears and let him in.

Waylnn is so hung up on the fear of being hurt that the walls Jonathan needs to scale are huge, add in the age difference which no-one else seems to care about just Waylnn and Jonathan has his work cut out for him.

'Then who gives a shit about what other people think? Let me love you like you deserve to be loved'

Kelly has yet again brought us the brilliant banter that I have adored throughout the series from the Parker siblings, made me laugh so much. The over-protective Parker boys had me in stiches .
'Besides, after the beating Cord gave me when I told him about us, I can't let you go 'cuz I promised him I'd never hurt you'

I can't wait to see what Kelly brings us next in this series, i have a feeling it might be a toss up between Tripp and Cord as to who my favourite is.

When Waylynn Parker returned home to Oak Springs, she vowed to never love again because the first time almost destroyed her, and it left her picking up the pieces of her life and her heart, dealing with small-town gossip, and attempting to find her footing back in a place that’s so much smaller than her old life in New York.

Jonathan Turner was born and bred in Oak Springs, and he’s always had his eye of Waylynn Parker despite their age difference and despite the fact that he’s Waylynn’s younger brother’s best friend, and now that she’s back, he’s more determined than ever to get her to see him as someone worth her time, worth her thoughts, and worth her heart.

Jonathan’s goal of making Waylynn Parker his is not going to be easy, but what readers learn about him as his and Waylynn’s story continues is that when it comes to the right woman, there isn’t anything he’s not willing to do because he sees his forever standing right in front of him, which means he’ll fight like hell to prevent Waylynn from getting lost inside her head and from running away from something that they both so clearly want and need.

Kelly Elliott realistically portrays Waylynn’s struggles, not only with the age difference between her and Jonathon but also with Waylynn’s insecurities and self-recriminations. Her ex-husband verbally abused her, leaving her feeling like she’s not good enough and an embarrassment for everything she lost. And while it’s clear that Waylynn is struggling with how other people see her and what she’s allowed Jack’s words to do to her self-esteem, it’s also clear that she’s a fighter and that she’s strong and capable despite Jack’s punishing words.

There are multiple times in the story where the snarky and feisty Waylynn comes out, especially when it comes to her siblings’ antics, but there are also times where she gets so lost in her head that it’s impossible for anyone to get through to her, and it’s those times when she tries to shut Jonathan out, but like the alpha male he is, he refuses to allow that to happen because he knows Waylynn wants what is developing between them, so when she can’t fight, he’s there to fight for both of them.

The Parker siblings’ bonds and banter are a significant part of Waylynn and Jonathon’s story, which makes sense since Jonathon is Cord’s best friend and her brothers are quite the protective bunch, especially given what Waylynn has already been through at the hands of her ex. The scenes that include all the Parkers are definitely lively and adding in their significant others makes it quite the family dynamics, and while they can all be a bit overwhelming, every single one of them is the reason that Waylynn keeps fighting, even when she feels like her broken pieces will never heal.

Waylynn and Jonathon deserve every happiness in life and it’s with that thought that they weather Waylynn’s doubts, outside influences, and circumstances that almost destroy them because the risk is worth taking when there’s someone like Jonathon who stands at her back, vowing to protect and cherish her every single day of their lives.

5 Star Review Love Again (Cowboys & Angels #4) by Kelly Elliott

This has to be one of my favourite series and Love Again is Waylynn and Jonathon Turner’s story. I am so in love with this series by Kelly Elliott and honestly it really is like coming home when I read a book in this series.

This story had me engrossed from the first chapter to the last. I have been intrigued by Waylynn since she first appeared in the series and I was anxious to read her story. Love Again lived up to my expectations in every way. I loved how feisty Waylynn was in the previous books and as she fought her way back from divorce I knew that it would take a strong, determined man to be able to see through all her bluster to the vulnerable and hurt woman beneath the surface. Jonathon Turner was that man and he was perfect for her; a strong, sexy, gorgeous man who fell hard and fast for the beautiful Waylynn.

This was one of those books I wanted to take slowly, to savour the story and yet I found myself riveted and saying to myself, just one more chapter until I finished.

The banter between Waylynn and her sister and sisters in law was hilarious, as was her dealings with her brothers and it all made for some truly snort worthy moments.

Waylynn has been deeply hurt by her lying, cheating ex husband and she has vowed that she will not fall in love again. Jonathon is attracted to Waylynn and is determined to see where it could lead them, but first he has to get past the biggest stumbling block to his plan, Waylynn. She is attracted to him and although the chemistry is sizzling between them, she cannot get past the fact that he is 6 years younger than her and her brother Cord’s best friend.

Can Jonathon get through the wall that Waylynn has built around herself? Will Waylynn give Jonathon the chance to show her that by taking a leap of faith, she could finally have the life she has longed for so desperately?

Hahahahaha I loved it!!! In the previous books they always made it seem like Waylynn was a mouse that hardly spoke. Ha! Yeah right!!! She was no where close to that. She had a way with words that will you have laughing from beginning to end.

Jonathon was Cord’s best friend and six years younger than Waylynn. He didn’t care about their age difference but she did. Thank god she got over that in the early chapters and they started enjoying themselves. It was so damn funny when the infamous Parker brothers found out. These 5 hot cowboys are downright hilarious and very protective. But they accepted their relationship.

The thoughts that Jonathan has sometimes will keep you laughing along with Waylynn foul mouth and her interaction with her siblings. There was a moment when her past showed back up that I wanted to strangle him but of course one of her brothers were there. Then there was an extremely sad moment that was very heartbreaking. It took a bit but they overcame it.

These siblings are one heck of a force and keep you laughing at all times. And little Chloe, lmao!!! The things that little girl says and does adds to the antics.

As much as I can’t wait for Tripp’s book which is next I can’t WAIT for Cord book because he’s hilarious.

This was my first time reading anything by Kelly Elliott and this was a good read. Even though this is the fourth book in the series and I didn’t read the other books, I didn’t feel confused. I felt like I was apart of the crew and was catching up with everyone! WayLynn and Jonathan are attracted to each other but Waylynn doesn’t want to pursue anything due to the fact that she is six years older than him. I really liked that aspect of the story. It’s nice to see an older women and younger man for a change! I have to say I LOVED Waylynn. She was sassy, fierce and had no problem putting someone in their place and defending the ones she loves as well. As the story unfolds I just knew where the plot was headed and I was WRONG! Elliot threw a curveball I didn’t see coming and it had my jaw dropping. The events that unfolded had me tearing up! After reading this book I definitely need to read the other books and I can't wait for “Blind Love’’ and to read more about Tripp and Harley.

Jonathon loves Waylynn he really does but sometimes his woman does more harm than good and he has to reel her in, "All eyes were back on me. Swallowing hard, I glanced at the balcony. “Um, babe, maybe you should keep to your original point,” I said, rubbing the tension out of my neck." Jonathon is just so romantic, “Good. Now let’s go to my place and eff like rabbits because seeing you in that dress is making my ***k hard as a rock.” The bathroom scene between Jonathon and Waylynn was just everything, "...we’re sitting in a soaked bathroom after my father just saw you naked and me face planted into your twig and berries…" I loved this book, and the characters I'm so excited for Tripp's book.

I love this series and this book. Love Again is Waylynn and Jonathon’s story. Jonathon is HOT. And Waylynn is a firecracker. And they are great together. Love Again is sweet and fun and has some angst. It’s well written and draws you in right away. I loved it!

I honestly don't know if I can give this review justice!!! The subject matter later in the book really meant a lot to me. Simply put Kelly get's the struggle that Waylynn and Jonathan went through. It's not an easy decision to make for all parties involved.
As far as the first half goes Kelly blew it right out of the water. Love doesn't care how old you are or anything else. Love just knows that it's found your partner. Jonathan is one hell of a guy

All. The. Feels. I loved everything about this book! I always seem to forget that Kelly Elliott has the ability to make me fell all the emotions when reading one of her books. I loved Jonathon. He didn't care that Waylynn was older than him, he didn't care that she tried to push him away, all he cared about was her. Making her his. This series has quickly become one of my favorites and I am always itching for the next book.

While this book is hot and steamy, it is also emotional and heartbreaking, but at the same time hopeful and healing. Every book seems to get better and better, I never know what to expect when I open one of these stories other than I know I am going to fall in love with yet another Kelly Elliott man

Kelly Elliott has a way of writing stories that go straight to your heart. Love again is another perfect example of the absolute beauty she writes. Love again is bursting at the seams with love, family, and all the feels! I laughed, swooned, and cried while reading Waylynn and Jonathan’s story. I’ve loved every book Kelly has ever written, but this one may just be my favorite.

Their story was so touching. Waylynn has quite a few walls Jonathan is determined to break down, and break them down he does. Beautiful romance, the perfect amount of heat, and so many heartwarming moments that bring a tear to your eye. These two have one of the sweetest stories I’ve ever read!

***Received an Advanced Readers Copy for a Blog Tour in exchange for an honest review***

Here we are again my comrades! I have devoured yet another book and I am not even the least bit sorry about it. Why did I sign up for this in the first place? Oh simple - did you read the synopsis? Oh man oh man, totes my goats I am excited. Nothing made me more excited than finding out there was a woman attracted to a younger man who happens to be her brothers best friend - whoooo! Bring on the drama, I have popcorn and I am ready to indulge in one of my favorite romance tropes. 

First though, before I dive into my review, I wanted to say a slight disclaimer - especially since this is for a blog tour. This series, Love Again is book four in the Cowboys & Angels series. Though I am sure you could go into it thinking it is a standalone, I highly recommend reading the first three novels prior to indulging in Love Again. I say this simply because when I found out this was an entire series I instantly found myself buying books one, two, and three and let me tell you I devoured them (I am sure you noticed the spam of reviews flooding my blog). I fucking inhaled them like a mad woman. Regardless of their flaws, I really have enjoyed this series. I have appreciation for each character, getting little snippets throughout each book, it honestly added more to the current development. 

So this is your warning now - after you have read this review, and I hope I have given you enough to want to read, buy the entire series and read them in order. I read them all in two days, because honestly Elliott has captivated me with her writing style. She is fun, entertaining, characters are intriguing, and as a reader you will fall in love instantly. 

Red tape, pulled - lets get started.

I was beyond ready for Waylynn's story. After reading her story mentioned throughout the other three novels, I knew I had to find out everything! Waylynn is perfection. She is in her early thirties, divorced, slightly broken and honestly she has a really heart when it comes to the self doubt. It is beyond beautiful, yet sad. I couldn't get enough of her emotions, she is really that woman you see who always has a smile but you know she has emotions that are just bouncing in her head. It wasn't until Jonathon that I think she really realized how to stop the bouncing and really move forward with her life. Jonathon on the other hand is younger, but he wants the same things Waylynn does, honestly he wants her in his life period. He is that sweet, rugged piece of man meat. He definitely never backed down from a fight...

Their chemistry really tugged at my heart in a multitude of ways. Honestly the swooning from the pages and through to the emotionally breaking moments, they were this ride or die kind of love. I also really loved the drama more so in Love Again. I can't say what it is exactly, because honestly that would give away over half the novel, but it literally brought me to tears - it was surreal, believable drama. Then how everything unfolded, the breaking moments, the touching moments - it was beautifully written. I think I loved most was when it hit that climatic moment and then cascaded down in the most believable of scenarios. 

My only iffy factor is that, though I loved the chemistry I also slightly had something nagging at me. Jonathon is Cord Parker (Waylynn's younger brother) best friend, and had been for several years growing up. Though at one point Waylynn admits she never looked or noticed her brothers friends growing up, but I was hoping for a little more additive to their background. I was honestly hoping for Jonathon to have admitted he had a crush on Waylynn growing up, or he always noticed her. Maybe this was the intention that they hadn't noticed one another in a romantic way until they were older, but I was hoping for a little more past history than what I was given...

I know up to this point from the other reviews, I have mentioned the supporting characters. I still love Chloe, she is the most hilariously adorable additive in the series but this go, if I am being honest it was the Parker parents that really stuck to my gut. Especially the father daughter moments with Waylynn. Obviously there was a bit of daddy Parker in all, especially with Amelia since she is the baby, but no, it was really big in Love Again. The moment that Waylynn and her father had these conversations, you just knew the heart felt, tear worthy moments were around the corner. 

Basically I loved this one. Hands down, this is my favorite in the series up to this point. I enjoyed them all in their own aspects, but it was Love Again that really hooked me in the most. I feel the romance was beautifully written - the chemistry and sexual tension down to the tear jerk moments that made you swoon for the stars as the scene unraveled. Waylynn and Jonathon are definitely my favorite.

*3.5*

After devouring the first three books in the Cowboys & Angels series earlier this year, I couldn't wait to get my hands on a copy of LOVE AGAIN. I was excited for Waylynn to FINALLY get her happy ending, because after all that she's been through she completely, 100% deserved it.

The result? While LOVE AGAIN wasn't my favorite book of the series, I was incredibly happy with the overall story. It had just the perfect amount of romance & swoon, and as per usual, the ending left me with one huge smile on my face.

I'll admit that it took me a while to get into LOVE AGAIN, and honestly, I was surprised by this. The first three books I was able to tear through in two days so I expected this to be the same. However, there was something about the story at first I just couldn't click with it. I'm not sure if it was just my reading mood at the time (I was going through a reading slump) or that I was slightly peeved by Waylynn's "He's just too young for me!!" arguments, but there was just something that made this hard to get through. Thankfully, at around fifty percent, something finally clicked, and at that point, I couldn't get enough. I was happy with how Waylynn and Jonathan were progressing, and it also didn't hurt that the Parker family's antics were as funny as ever.

LOVE AGAIN alternates between Waylynn's POV and Jonathan. Over the course of the previous three books, Waylynn and Jonathan have grown as secondary characters, and their romance even began to bloom in earlier books as well. It was exciting to finally see through Waylynn and Jonathan's eyes. There's something so endearing about Waylynn. It was evident in the previous books (especially in Amelia's) and it was even more so in this book. I love her sense of humor as well as the fire she brings with her everywhere she goes. She's someone you don't want to mess with that's for sure. My heart broke for her as she continued to move on from her failed marriage; however, I was so happy with all the progress she made in this book. It was easy to see how much dancing set her free. The only thing that annoyed me about Waylynn was the age argument, as mentioned above. In my opinion, I don't think the age gap between Waylynn and Jonathan is that huge, so I didn't understand the big deal. Honestly, after the 2383838 time she pushed Jonathan away, I was basically fuming, even more so when she proceeded to get angry at him for living his life after she told him to leave. I just wanted to shake some sense in to her. Luckily, this argument eventually dissipated, but there's a slight annoyance that still lingers now. Jonathan, on the other hand, is a saint. I feel like not many guys would continue to put up with Walynn's back-and-forth; however, Jonathan was in it for the long haul, no matter how many times Waylynn told him to leave. Jonathan was a sweetheart. I loved seeing him with his family as well as the Parkers, the second of which he fit in perfectly with. I also appreciated when he did manage to talk some sense into Waylynn about her rash judgments. While sometimes I did fell that Jonathan was slightly too perfect (I feel like he barely got angry the entire book), it didn't bring my enjoyment of the book down too much.

LOVE AGAIN mostly focusing on finding love again. Kelly did a great job of building up the romance here, and while I did think things moved rather fast towards the end, I was still content with the end result. What can I say, I love a happy ending! The big twist towards the end, however, was pure evil. My heart BROKE. I almost cried, but I loved seeing the characters overcome the trouble and pain the twist brought with it. It made the ending even sweeter, in my opinion.

For fans of the Cowboys & Angels series (especially those who have come to love Waylynn), LOVE AGAIN will definitely be a treat albeit a bittersweet one at times. I will say, though, that I wouldn't suggest starting the series with this book. I feel that the past books are stronger, but that's just my opinion.

Also, the excerpt at the end from Tripp's book? Another case of pure evil!! I couldn't believe that Kelly would leave us with that final line - I need more pronto!

-Cassie, 4.5 stars

Love Again is the fourth book in the Cowboys and Angels series. It can be read as a standalone, but I recommend you read the first three because the stories are interconnected with family history. You cannot go wrong reading this series. Each book gets better and better.

I was anxiously waiting for Waylynn and Jonathon’s story and it did not disappoint. I loved everything about Jonathon. He had to be super patient with Waylynn because she was just burned by her ex-husband. He also had to convince her that their age difference was not a big deal. Those were pretty big hurdles because Waylynn is super stubborn, but I loved how he knew when to push and when to give her the space she needed. Waylynn is one of my favorite heroines. She is strong willed and stubborn, but also fiercely loyal to her family and loved ones.These two are perfect for each other and if Waylynn can get out of her own way she will see this too!

The chemistry is off the charts and this makes it harder for Waylynn to deny her feelings for Jonathon. I really liked the slow burn of this book. They had a quickie and then nothing for months. Waylynn made him work for every little thing. There were times that I appreciated Jonathon’s patience because Waylynn would get into her own head and push him hard and far away. This book also deals with some serious issues and I like how Elliott tackled them with grace and a real rawness. Waylynn has to decide if she is willing to give Jonathon the chance they deserve to have their happily ever after.

Kelly Elliott just keeps getting better and better with each book in this series. I love how she brings in the secondary characters and makes this a much deeper series. She gives you everything to make you invested in this series. I cannot wait for the next book.

**I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.**

Love Again is book four in the Cowboys and Angels series. The series needs to be read in the order the author has intended to get the most out of it.

Love Again is Waylynn Parker's book. Waylynn is the oldest of the Parker kids. She's moved back to her hometown. She's divorced and trying to finally follow her dreams by opening a dance studio in town. Her ex caused her to put a wall around her heart, she's scared her dreams won't come true. When she meets Jonathon, her brother Cord's best friend, there is an instant connection and with him working on the dance studio she falls for Jonathon.

Jonathon has been around the Parker family since he was just a boy. When Waylynn comes back to town, she's not the woman he remembers. He wants her instantly. They just fit but Waylynn fights the attraction because he's younger. Waylynn is more worried about what people are going to say about their relationship than giving them an honest try. Jonathon can't keep his mind off of Waylynn. The only thing he can do is convince her that he's the man for her.

I absolutely loved Love Again. I found myself laughing out loud at certain points and wiping tears the next. I love a book that can take you on an emotional ride and pull your heart strings. Ms. Elliott has out down herself with these Parker's and I can't wait for more!!

I fell in love with him from page one, with his Wranglers, boots and that black cowboy hat...holy shit....take me now!!! He is definitely sex on a stick!! lmao

Love Again is book four in the Cowboys and Angels series. You really need to read all the books in order due to the stories intertwine and it is fan-dam-tastic!!!

I felt like I was watching a movie while reading. The way Kelly tells the story just takes you away to another place, she sucks you right in!!

Sooo onto my review..lol Jonathon Turner has the hot's for Waylynn, but she just ain't haven it. She feels she is too old for him. Waylynn doesn't think Jonathon is ready to settle down and ready for marriage, kids and the white picket fence. But ladies, Jonathon has his sites set on Waylynn and he is not going to back down. He even bucks up to her brothers trying to prove his interest in her. Goodness sooo much testosterone in this read...haha Soo yess there is a lot of push and pull, lot's of great banter and a whole lot of hawt ass sexual tension in Love Again. Ohh and let me tell you, go ahead and get those tissues ready cuz your gonna need those too....I am telling you, sooo many feels in this one...my heart was just over flow'n!!!

*Received ARC for an honest review*

Kelly only went and did it again!!!

Seriously I LOVE THESE BOOKS!!!

This is only the 4th book too. They just keep getting better and better.

Waylynn... What can I say about her. I just love her. She's such an amazing and funny character. After the crap she went through in Meli's book I was wanting to know more her. So I was excited to read her book.

Jonothan ♡ God... Well he was just damn fine!!! He was sweet, loving, caring and naughty when he's with Waylynn and bloody hilarious when he's with the Parker boys haha.

There were a few sad & touching parts in this book and YES I did cry. Don't I always lol.

Kelly really made me feel whilst reading this book.

I wasnt happy with how Kelly took the book on a certain part. But all was good in the world and I was happy with the outcome in the end ♡

I love the Parker gang when they're in the books. Especially the brothers haha.

I was laughing all the way through, Swooned a whole lot(Jonothan and those damn Parker brothers though ♡).

But I also shed a few tears in some parts.

I love this series so far and can't wait for the rest of the books. I just know they're going to be amazing.

Well done Kelly xx

5 Stars!

Kelly Elliott never disappoints when she writes a romance, always delivering a sweet and sexy one, with promises of serious punches to the heart. This Cowboys and Angels series has been amazing and so so good and..... now finally we are getting Jonathan and Waylynn's journey.

She says never again to love after experiencing unimaginable heartache...until him. He's the one that is going to change...simply everything. Younger. Her brother's best friend. Off limits. There's no chance she won't fall.

Love Again was emotional-rip your heart out at times, steamy, fun, slightly angsty, and laugh out loud romance that sent me on quite the complicated yet so worth it roller coaster of forever love. Waylynn and Jonathan pulled out all the stops, packing a serious punch to the heart at moments yet filling it with so much hope and longing. I really adored these two right from the very start and well Jonathan, he is one determined, swoony, loyal alpha you won't forget anytime soon.

Beautiful romance that digs deep and doesn't let go.

I highly recommend this book.

Love Again (Cowboys & Angels #4) by Kelly Elliott
4.5 stars
M/F Romance
Triggers: Emotionally abusive relationship, Life threatening accident
I was given this book for an honest review by Wicked Reads.

Jonathon and Waylynn's story is beautiful. I started off a little wary of Waylynn, with all of her hangups, but once you really got in to the story, you found that she was so compassionate and had such fire in her.

Each character's family is a force of nature. They love fiercely and are so loyal. They also make you laugh at their antics.

When tragedy strikes, everyone pulls together to help this couple out. They want this relationship to succeed. You see how Jonathon and Waylynn have to battle the odds of social perception and their own inner turmoil.

This book made me laugh and cry - you'll have an emotional roller coaster to get through. But, I promise, it's worth it in the end. I don't want to write too much, because the slow development of the story is what makes this story so powerful - you get to really see the relationship build and grow.

~~I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads ~~

This is the fourth book in the series, and it is recommended that they are read in order. However I did enjoy it as a first read. I could tell that there were previous issues and relationships which may have made me understand things more quickly - but I was find with it as it was.

At the heart of this book is a relationship being built with a strong foundation. I did find some of the journey to be a little repetitive, and their insistence on jumping each other constantly did become a little unnerving at times. There were some difficult issues dealt with in a caring, and sometimes slightly religious manner (though not excessively).

I loved the humour, and was chuckling frequently at Waylynn's brothers antics. I also did shed quite a few tears, although they were basically of joy - but you need to read it yourself to find out why!

Overall a good read, thank you Ms Elliott.

Love Again by Kelly Elliott
“Finding happily ever after, 5 stars”

Waylynn thought she had found love only for her to realize it wasn’t she thought it was. She left a horrible marriage and is trying to figure out how to stand on her own to feet and get what she has always wanted. When love comes knocking will she be able to accept it or will she let her mind get in the way?
Jonathon may be younger than Waylynn but he’s always wanted a family of his own. Blame it on him being the oldest of his siblings. When he sets sights on his best friend’s older sister he knows its going to be an uphill battle but one he’s ready for.
I loved these two and wanted them together without ever wavering. At times I questioned if Elliott liked Waylynn because she didn’t give her a break, but everything worked out in the end. I loved catching up with the rest of Waylynn’s family and learning about Jonathon’s. Not only did Elliott give us perfect lead in’s for some of Waylynn’s siblings stories but also kind of gave us hope that maybe we would get Jon’s too. Elliott took a broken woman and made her whole and I loved everything about it and can’t wait to see where she goes with the rest of the story. You don’t have to read the other books in the series but I recommend you do, go one-click!

There are not enough words to say how much I love this series and love the Parker Siblings. This book has been long awaited for. I have always wanted to see how Waylynn's story would unfold with everything that happened to her, and let me tell y'all it does not disappoint.
Johnathan and Waylynn together make you want to keep turning the pages to see how their story is going to unfold.
I loved the banter back and forth between and how regardless of the fact that jonathan knew what he wanted it, Waylynn was sure it was true.
One of my favorite things in this series is the fact we keep getting to see more of the rest of the family.
This book is probably my fave so far in this series and i cannot wait to see what else comes up for the Parker Siblings.
5 stars for Waylynn finding true love!
