Rate this book
A Sweet & Sexy Single Dad Romance I thought he’d love me forever, but clearly, his mistress indicated otherwise.

I’m a woman that’s broken and no one can fix me. That is… until I meet Beau Matson. He’s a dirty mechanic and one sexy single dad. Dark, secretive… and afraid of commitment. Beau is the last man I need in my life. He’s got more issues than a magazine. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want him. Beau is an expert at fixing broken things. Can he fix my broken heart, too? There’s only one way to find out. And that’s by ending up in his bed. Undeniably His is the first book in the Matson Brothers duet. No cliffhanger. It can be read as a standalone.

(4.5) Undeniably his has been a book at the top of my radar since February! I have waited for the epic love story of Emmie’s and Beaus and Emery did not disappoint!

Emmie has seen many a dark days but what I love is her strength! She hasn’t let it change her perspective on life and she remains the lights of everyone’s world!

Beau is a man who works hard and does what he needs for his family! He makes a deal to keep his business and his family afloat, but what he doesn’t count on is getting MUCH MUCH more that he bargained for!

Grab this beauty because it’s one hot romance you don’t want to miss and holy twistola are you in for some surprises!

ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review
This was my first time reading this author and the synopsis and cover were really appealing.
The plot deals with some sensitive topics and I feel like anyone could feel related to them despite not having lived those specific situations. It was very well written and described.
To me, in some cases, the story was too fast-paced. I needed to believe more in Emmie and Beau's connection. I needed more of those small moments which can make a book relationship realistic to me.

What a sweet story that left me smiling and my heart full. Emmie and her friends have such a strong bond and I do not like her ex at all. Beau is not Emmie's "typical" type but someone who is trying to live his life and take care of his family.

I enjoyed reading their story and their chemistry is simmering. I loved how real Emmie was with her rambling and it was such a natural reaction. When all is done my heart is so full from this story

I absolutely LOVED the story of Beau and Emmie! Emery Jacobs has written an emotionally-charged, full bodied story that will keep you hooked until the very end (and even then, you'll want more!).

Emmie has the ability to be completely confident and yet vulnerable all at the same time. She's endearing and I love her for it. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body and can handle anything life throws at her with dignity; always coming out stronger on the other side. She is the girl you want to be best friends with you'll love her journey.

Beau is the strong silent type and hallelujah! This girl loves a man who takes care of business, loves his family, and is sexy AF! He is the perfect ying to Emmie's yang and they work really well off each other and together.

One of my favorite reads of the year and of Emery Jacobs'! This book is undeniably 5 stars!

Emmie thought her and her husband Max had the perfect life. Then everything fell apart. Now she is trying to rebuild her personal life from scratch. Then out of nowhere a gruff mechanic catches her eye and the more she sees him, the more she wants to get closer to him. As her attraction grows, it all she can do to prevent herself from climbing him like a tree. This uncharacteristic behavior, while slightly shocking, makes her feel alive for the first time in possibly forever. Beau Matson is a man on the edge. Life keeps lobbing curve balls at him and he is at the end of his rope. When a smug guy driving a Mercedes comes into his auto shop, he can't wait to get rid of him. The shop is going under and his family is depending on him. Mr Mercedes suggests a proposition. In exchange for social media sites and revamp of his waiting room at the garage, all Beau has to do is stalk Mr Mercedes' sister Emmie. Beau is uncomfortable with the situation but desperate times call for desperate measures. It is no hardship to follow Emmie whose shining personality draws Beau ever closer to her. He is so attracted to her but can't see any way of it working out, especially with the way he met her. He walks away right when she needs him the most. Will these two ever get a happily ever after?

This was an absolutely adorable read. Beau is not an alpha male per se but he is a big guy and quiet, a big talker he is not. Emmie has been knocked around by life but she isn't beaten. The push and pull between these two is very well done and I loved that they both acted like adults. This is my first Emery Jacob novel but it will not be my last. I highly recommend Undeniably Yours with 4.5 stars.

Emmie Carmichael was living the good life. She had almost everything she'd ever wanted, a great husband, beautiful house, great job; there's only one thing missing, the child she can't give her husband. She's always wanted a baby but she and Max are a beautiful unit despite the grief she feels over not being able to carry to term. Until she finds out about his girlfriend that is now carrying his baby, the one thing Emmie can't give him. Crushed and devastated, she struggles to rebuild her life without her ex-husband and the dreams she had for them. When her car breaks down, she unexpectedly finds the catalyst to move on in her sexy mechanic.

Beau Matson is a haunted man. He keeps to himself, working diligently to keep his father's mechanic shop afloat while caring for his son and working even harder to keep everyone else at a distance. He doesn't want relationships or entanglements, besides he's simply too busy. He knows he can't keep up the pace of trying to save the family shop much longer so when a man approaches him with an unorthodox proposition that might breathe new life into the shop, he reluctantly accepts. All he has to do is keep an eye on the guy's sister, make sure she doesn't get into trouble, that sort of thing. The last thing he expected was to fall for her.

Quick read with enough turns to keep you guessing. Emmie is trying hard to start over and as a divorceé myself, I understood her struggle. Beau was a conundrum until we learn what happened to make him so gun shy. You'll get the feels with this one. Good read by this new-to-me author.

I loved everything about this book. After the first two pages I knew I was emotionally invested. I was already gutted for Emmie but she is not one to just fall over and cry in a pint of Ben & Jerry's. She has incredible friends, a great bff and a wonderful business. Emmie makes some decisions which will clearly change her life but in a really good way, but first she has to get her car started! She gets it towed from the shop her dad always used and the shop employee, Leo, is kind of endearing, kind of funny and Emmie is still trying to figure him out when she meets the owner, Beau. Wow he just happens to be the sexiest, hottest guys she's seen in a pair of jeans well in forever and Emmie hasn't been thinking this way in a long time. Well this is the train that takes Emmie and Beau on a journey that is laugh out loud funny, heartfelt, oh no that did not just happen to the most amazing beautiful yes I want so much more!!! You will adore this book! One of my favorites this summer!

Undeniably His is a great little read... I loved the connection you feel from the very beginning between Emmie and Beau... Both Emmys and Beau have had it rough in the past with their relationships... I don't want to go into to many details and spoil it... Emmie is coming out of a divorce and was crushed by what her husband did.. Beau is a single father who doesn't intend to have a relationship with anyone... When they meet they find it difficult to stay away from each other.. Beau has gotten himself into a mess where Emmie is concerned... You'll have to grab Undeniably His to see how it all turns out!!

Undeniably His is a wonderful story by Emery Jacobs. Emmie is a young, beautiful lady who has seen her share of heartbreak but still remains strong and hasn't given up on love. Enter Beau, a hard-working mechanic who is talented with his hands in more ways than one and you have the making of a steamy, sexy romance.

Emery Jacobs adds a few secrets and twists that keeps this storyline fresh and entertaining. A perfect summer romance.

It took a while for the book to grab me but when it did, I didn’t want to put it down. I liked how Beau brought out a different side of Emmie. She seemed to be more free with her wants, needs, and thoughts when it came to Beau. I wished we had more clues during the early parts of the book regarding Beau’s aversion to relationships. I also wish we had been able to have more time with them as an actual couple instead of just them messing around for a while. The ending seemed a bit rushed but it was really good overall.

I haven’t read a book by Emery Jacobs before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was consumed by Emmie & Beau’s story. I will definitely be reading more by Emery Jacobs in the future.

Emmie was a sweet character that has been through a lot in her life. Emmie’s personality made me adore her. Beau is doing what he has to support his family. He didn’t plan on Emmie. I enjoyed the interactions with Emmie & Beau. Emmie’s friends were amazing secondary characters who were great support for Emmie.

Some great twists that I didn’t see coming!

Undeniable His a  beautifully written second chance story. I can tell you I am a sucker for second chances and this one was slowly pulling me into its depth. I read it in one breath. 


Everyone needs a new beginning and everyone should have a chance to be loved, cherished and taken care of. 

I was truly smitten by Beau. He is rough around the edges, doesn't let anyone inside the high walls he has built around his heart. 

Except for his family he never smiles, until her...

Emmie just got out of painful divorce and wants a new beginning. Having been committed to only one person, she needs to start to live again. When she meets Beau for the first time she is struck by his handsomeness.... She's never ever had a reaction  to the opposite sex ...UNTIL HIM.  Invisible strings seem to be pulling her into his spell, although Beau is not the commitment type. 


The plot is skillfully twisted and the things you think you know, will prove you totally wrong in the end.

Undeniably His by Author Emery Jacobs is a standalone, contemporary romance novel.

Emmie is attempting to adjust to some huge changes in her life. She is working on her self-confidence, putting herself out there, hoping not to get burned.

I love prologues that make my emotions roll and cause me to have the most obsessive case of grabby hands needing to get to more of a book. This is the kind of prologue that makes my heart race for more. This was the beginning of Undeniably His.

Not too far in, I became consumed by the mystery that was Beau Matson. Tall, dark hair, good-looking. He had secrets, and I wanted to know ALL of them. Mainly, why was he so affected by Emmie? Such an enticing mystery!

Some surprising twists propelled Emmie and Beau’s story, with the odds stacked against them. No one believing in them. But, I did!!!!! Did I ever!

I really enjoyed every part of this novel until the end. I felt like the ending, compared with the rest of the novel, fell a little flat and didn’t deliver the same impact that I had come to find throughout the entirety of the story. It was not a bad ending, I had just come to expect more. However, I am not disappointed to have read this novel, or found a new-to-me author in Emery Jacobs. I look forward to reading more of her novels.

I really enjoyed my first time read of Emery Jacobs.

In the prologue we get to see what has happened in Emmie's life. You'll want to throat punch someone! Then we get to me Beau....and when you get his whole story you'll want to hug him.
The one thing that can bring this couple together is also the one thing that holds them apart.
I loved it all except the ending. It seem some what anticlimactic. Maybe if the epilogue had been a bit further in the future...

I will definitely read more from this author

Undeniably His gave me such mixed emotions. I was happy, sad, pissed off, confused, then back to pissed off, then petulantly accepted the ending.

Emmie and Beau's relationship had it's moments where I was rooting for them, then I felt like I got lost somewhere and the last couple of chapters didn't really make me want to be on Team Beau because his actions or absence was kind of unacceptable.

Emmie easily taking him back kind of shocked me but I guess I her situation, it may have been the hormones.

All in all, good read. There was some things that I felt that were missing that made me not really get the gratification I was looking for when it came to the chemistry of the H and h. I just can't put my finger on it.

Emmie Carmichael thought she had finally gotten to happy place in her marriage until her husband, Max, reveals that he has gotten his girlfriend pregnant. Now she must start again but she is ready to do everything on her own.
Beau Matson owns a struggling automotive shop with his brother, Leo. One day he is mysteriously offered a job to help solve the problems his shop is having and he reluctantly takes it.
When Beau and Emmie meet sparks fly but there is a lot of mystery around them and even if they know they are not necessarily good for each other there is something that brings them towards each other.
As secrets begin to be revealed will the truth divide them for good?
This was a great book and definitely had some twists and turns that I was not expecting.
I liked Emmie and I can’t imagine all the pain she felt to find out that her husband was cheating again. I liked her relationship with her best friends Ava and Jane but I could understand why Emmie was reluctant to say much to Ava while she dated Emmie’s brother, Miles.
Beau was a mystery that you never knew much about until it slowly all began to get revealed. I felt bad for him that he was obviously in a difficult spot with his business and he no clue initially on what the job really meant. You could tell he had pain in his past but you never knew why or what happened.
I thought Emmie cared about Beau but really didn’t know if he properly fit into her life but was good for the moment. Beau on the other hand believed that there was no way that he fit into Emmie’s life.
As things began to get revealed there were things that broke my heart and I was definitely upset when Emmie didn’t believe Beau when he told her the truth about what happened.
The end was great and I was happy that things happened the way I wanted them to. - By Rebecca

Beau: Desperate to save his father's legacy, to support his mother and brother, he does the unthinkable

Emma: Betrayed by her husband of ten years, emotionally abandoned, she divorces him and dips her toe into the dating pool....

Beau finds himself in desperate straits: the garage that his father left him is failing; Beau must do SOMETHING to change the downward spiral, or his brother, his mother and he himself will soon be completely destitute. A stranger walks in his door, and offers Beau a deal; if Beau will keep an eye on his sister Emma, make sure she doesn't fall in with the wrong crowd, and checks in with him daily, the stranger will help solve Beau's problems. Beau is hesitant, but finally agrees... feeling as if he just made a deal with the devil...


The first time Emma sees Beau, she feels as if lightning has struck. Immediately fascinated with him, Emma attempts to strike up a conversation with him. But Beau is strangely aloof, and rejects Emma's overtures. But Emma is tenacious; she's not giving up on him; there's something between them... something special.

Oh my... this book! An emotional roller coaster! Beau wants Emma, but feels guilty about spying on her and reporting back to Emma's brother. Emma wants Beau, but has been so deeply hurt by her ex husband's betrayal, that she isn't sure if what she feels is real or worth pursuing. The plot twists and turns, the ups and downs, it's as if YOU are in the story with the characters, wanting to cheer them on, warn them away, whatever it takes to guarantee a happy ending.

What do you do when your perfect life is gone in the blink of an eye? When your high school sweetheart and the man who was supposed to be the father of your children walks out of your life? If you’re anything like Emmie in Undeniably His, you discover just how strong you really are. You pick up the pieces and rebuild yourself. And what if you are one the brink of losing everything, and your offered the chance at redemption through less then honorable means. When desperate times fall on Beau, he’s willing to cede to desperate measures to save his families livelihood. Following Emmie isn’t something Beau feels right about. As the attraction he feels for her grows, his willingness to keep tabs on a woman in order to save his business diminish. Nor is he capable of staying away from Emmie entirely. Soon passion sparks a fire between the two. But the past has a way of coming between where you are and where you’re going, as Emmie and Beau find out.

Emery Jacobs has really outdone herself this time. She writes a story that will surely leave you as in-love as I was… I couldn’t wait to read more and more of Beau and Emmie; I hardly put my kindle down. Both characters are the perfect match for one another. And the story was beautifully written. Although, I would have loved a little more of an epilogue, the story itself was outstanding and I loved the fire that existed between our hero and heroine! I highly recommend Undeniably His and give it 4.5 Stars.

I’m in love with this story. Emmie and Beau are such great characters and their love story warms my heart.

Emmie Carmichael is trying to move on with her life after a humiliating betrayal by her husband. Now divorced, she’s looking to have some fun with no strings attached. When she meets Beau Matson, a very sexy mechanic, the attraction is undeniable even though Beau is definitely not her type, or is he? Can she let go for the first time in her life and give in to her desire for him without any type of commitment?

Beau is barely hanging on to his business. He constantly works to keep his father’s legacy, Jim Matson’s Automotives, alive. Money is tight and he can’t seem to make a go of it until an “opportunity” presents itself. Beau however is hiding secrets, secrets that don’t sit right with him. Secrets that could destroy everything.

This story was so good. I enjoyed every second of it. Beautifully written, heart wrenching and also heart warming. There are twists and turns that surprise you and heart breaking moments that make you cry. The road is a rough one but the end result is so worth it. I have to say the secondary characters are awesome. Both Emmie and Beau have great support systems in their friends and family. They add great substance to the story. Oh and by the way, I completely fell in love with that cover. Wow!

OK so at first I really thought it was Miles who approached Beau. Then I was thinking the whole time that Emmie might have had some accident to have her loose her memory!
WOW......Emmie had a horrible marriage and was making her life her own. She was living it how she wanted to, even though friends and family kept telling her to be careful, not to talk to Beau, or to get involved with him. I am glad she went with her gut.
Beau was hesitant about getting involved with Emmie. The heart wants what it wants right? His heart wanted Emmie yet he did what he could to stay away. Their attraction was that strong. His past isn't a bad one, just sad. I can see why he didn't want to have a relationship with Emmie. Emmie wasn't ready really but the more she thought about Beau, the more she wanted him physically. The more time they spent with each other, the more she fell for him, she fell hard.
Also I like where authors give you a little back story of each character, as well as run in's they might have had in the past but just don't remember each other.
Beau and Emmie's chemistry was great, that KISS was whoa!
Where can we find a hot mechanic so we can all have what Beau and Emmie have??
