The Hastings Brothers #5
Chasing Amelia
Amelia
I spent years with a man who I thought loved me. That love turned cruel and uncaring.
When I left to rebuild my life with my daughter, I went back home to live with my father.
What my father had forgotten to mention was that his house is part of a warzone in an ongoing prank war. He also failed to mention the handsome man who lives down the street.
I can’t take my eyes off him.
It would be too soon to trust a man again; the divorce isn’t even final yet, but there’s no harm in a little fun, right?
Liam
When I first laid eyes on her, I thought she was the sexiest woman I had ever seen.
We came to an agreement of “no strings.” How did this backfire on me?
Commitment is not for me.
There is no woman who can get me to settle down but, if that’s true, why am I left with these feelings of jealousy when other men are near her?
She’s so much more than meets the eye.
I didn’t realize how deep I had gotten until it was too late. The question is, how am I supposed to keep her once her father finds out about us?

These stories are full of love, romance, drama, and a lot of laughs and fun. I couldn’t put this series down. It’s bingeworthy and if you are like me, sleep will be on a back burner because you won’t want to stop reading. I never thought Liam would fall but you need to check out this book to find out what happens. It’s so worth the read.

I'm going to miss these characters
We knew Liam was going to fall eventually. What we didn't know was how hard. Or, that it would take a little girl would who would wrap him so hard around her little finger that he'd be her favorite tea party Batman. This entire series was truly special. It made me laugh so hard at some of the prank war moments. But it also had touching moments where you felt their struggles. Throughout it all was this beautiful bond amongst the family created between friends. I'm looking forward to the Johnson Brother's series. Hopefully we get a story for Amelia's brother as well.

I'm a very picky reader and I have so few authors that are my go to authors. Mallory Funk is one of them. Liam, Amelia and Isabelle are a family. I love the family aspect in all the books I read. The feelings Liam has for Isabelle are heart warming and the love between Liam and Amelia (even tho he was a commitment phobe) makes you gooey inside. Thanks for another great read Ms. Funk! Keep em comin!

*WARNING* contains adult situations
Liam was the final Hastings brother, the one who feared commitment, the one who swore to be a bachelor forever! You have to read this to find out how that worked out. This whole series was amazing. The character were great. Each couple had their own hurtle to overcome. The books are emotional, but have a good amount of humor so they are heavy. I'm sad to see the this series end, but I am looking forward to the Johnson Brothers series.

Cute
Another cute story. More suspense in this one than the previous two in the series but that’s a good thing. Serious discussions tend to be weird and uncomfortable because they are so wordy. And the jumps in time while helpful in moving the story timeline are annoying when it happens every one to two chapters.

❤️Liam
Liam wasn't sure he was cut out for love and commitment. Along came Amelia and her daughter Isabelle. It didn't take long for Liam and well as Amelia to have feelings for one another. Amelia's ex caused some drama in the story, but things worked out for everyone. If you have read the other Hastings brothers don't miss out on this one.

Liam & Amelia
OMG the prank war!!! I can’t remember laughing this hard! I enjoyed this book - this whole series - so freaking much!! I am so looking forward to reading about the Johnson brothers. In the meantime, I am more than happy to read all the rest of Mallory Funk’s books. Definitely a new favorite author!

LOVE
I have always enjoyed Mallory Funk’s books and this series has always been a rollercoaster. I have fallen in love with every character. Getting to follow Liam and Amelia’s story was so enjoyable. And who doesn’t instantly fall in love with Isabelle?! I hope for more books in this world. I feel like there is so much more I wanna know.

This story was so, so good!! I loved Amelia and Liam and sweet little Isabelle. Liam has always been a huge player and scared to settle down but when Amelia moves in a few doors down he can’t keep from falling for her. I absolutely loved all these books and this was a great ending to a great series!

First things first; I love the cover of this book!
Chasing Amelia is the fifth and final book in the hasting brothers series. I am so sad that this series is finished! I devoured this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters loveable and the storyline enjoyable. This story is Amelia and Liam’s story. I feel like I have been waiting forever for this story but it didn’t disappoint.
Amelia has recently separated from her verbally abusive husband. When she and her little girl move in with her dad, she meets the Hastings. Liam is a commitment phobe. When he meets Amelia, he wants her. What starts off as friends with benefits soon progresses to feelings.
The chemistry between Liam and Amelia is clear to see and I loved them together. They made a cute couple.
I loved Liam’s bond with Isabelle.
I have said it before and I will say it again, I love every character in this story.
I loved the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

Chasing Amelia was a really good, couldn't put it down, kind of read. I found myself laughing so hard, I cried, while reading this story. Liam and Amelia are a friends with benefits to happily ever after story. Seeing their love gradually grow into something more kept me glued to my kindle. Liam and Amelia were so cute together and steamed up my kindle. This book had a little of everything and gave me all the feels. This series has been full of awesome pranks, so Ms.Funk didn't let us down in this one. I really enjoyed this book.
