A quick but great read!

Okay, so this was my first ever SE Roberts book and I see that I decided to start with the last installment in her series. Ha. I do feel like those that have already read the other books would not only know more about Kyle and Kenz, but probably connect with them on a deeper level too. Nevertheless, I did really enjoy this short story and meeting these characters. For such a quick and short read, it sure packed emotion and enough drama and spice to definitely make it a page-turner.

I will definitely be checking out the other books! 4.5 STARS

A very sweet love story by SE Roberts. I enjoyed the characters in this book and the storyline. Rachel had a lot of issues dealing with her mother leaving her years ago, and poor Kyle seemed to have his heart broken because of Rachel’s decisions and feelings.
Rachel’s mother wasn’t reliable enough to meet her when she came to visit her for that week. At least her girlfriend knew she would need someone there to help Rachel deal with more disappointment, so she sent Kyle.
Kyle was still in love with Rachel, only it took awhile for Rachel to realize that Kyle would be there for her, and help her through this time. Soon they found out that they both were still in love with one another, and they could make it work.
It was a good love story, it was a short read, but quite enjoyable. ❤️

Dang it, I always get so attached to SE Roberts’ characters because they have real world problems and are just so relatable. I end up zooming through the pages and feel so sad when the story is over because I don’t want their stories to end.
While Mackenzie was so lost, looking for answers to help her heal from her past hurts and move on in the present Kyle was there for her. He encouraged her and held her hand as she faced her pain and her fears. I could feel Mackenzie’s hurt like it was my own and I couldn’t help but melt with each and every one of Kyle’s declarations to her along the way. This was such a sweet (and steamy) love story I need more!!

First off I should say that you should read love reawakened before reading this story or you won’t understand it. This book was absolutely AMAZING! I loved being able to see the outcome between Mackenzie and her mother. It definitely brought this series full circle for me! And brought tears to my eyes!

Kyle is everything every man should be and more! The way he is there for Kenzie truly molds my heart back together and it’s not even broken! Lol.

You have to read this story to understand what I mean by this. But you won’t be disappointed at all, I can promise you that!

Without a doubt 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really enjoyed this book, I believe that it was my first from SE Roberts. Definitely will be checking out more from her.

The story is full of strife and how to overcome it. At times I wanted to shake Kenz into living her own life and stop being a victim to her past. Kyle is amazing and his love for Kenz is swoon worthy. The kind of love everyone seeks.

Definitely worthy of spending time with!

S.E. Roberts never disappoints, and Love Remotely is no different!!My only complaint is it was too short cause it was sooo darn goood!! I loved Kenzie and seeing her all grown up, and my heart broke for her. Kyle...oh Kyle!! YUM!!! He was so patient with Kenzie and just loved her no matter what, and just let Kenzie figure stuff out. You wnt to read this book, and really you want to read the entire series!!

A sweet read that I didn’t want to end. I always love her characters and their stories because they are are relatable and filled with so many emotions. The love and devotion Kyle shows to Mackenzie when she is facing and dealing with family issues is priceless and swoon worthy. I wish there was more to this story because I loved every minute of it!!

A wonderful short novella that was just the right amount of sweet heat. I loved learning about Kenz and Kyle and their relationship. It is always wonderful to get sneak peak into the children's lives after years have passed. I loved how it tied everything up and definitely left me with warm and fuzzies and a smile on my face when I finished reading it!

I always love S.E. Roberts books! Her characters are every day people each with their own real world problem. No matter whether they’re dealing with past hurts like Kenz or trying to mend a broken soul like Kyle, I’m always drawn in instantly wanting more. Love Remotely is a short story that’s packed full of second chances, love, and so much swoon. I can’t wait to see what comes next! ❤️

A beautifully sweet read. I loved Kyle and Kenz, they were likable and relatable characters and every day people dealing with problems like we all do. I loved Kyle, he was simply amazing, and his dedication and love for Kenz was heartwarming. I really loved this sweet love story and it’s one all will enjoy.

Such a sweet read by SE Roberts. This was my first book by this author and she has reeled me in as a forever fan. These characters are so relatable you can't help but fall in love with them. Kyle is the perfect book boyfriend; his forgiveness, love and devotion for Kenzi is swoon worthy. I loved their story. This is the perfect second chance romance.

What a sweet story! It is short and sweet second chance romance that will make your heart happy. There are some frustrating moments; I wanted to reach in and shake Kenzie at times. The storyline was good and kept me turning the pages. I do wish it was a little longer. I would have loved more back story for Kenzie and Kyle but that is just me.

Wow! Can I just say wow and leave it at that? I'm not great with words but S.E. Roberts definitely is!! This story, the only thing wrong with it was that I wished it were longer so I could stay with these two more! I wish that about every book though so there's nothing wrong with the length though, really. It's perfect! Kyle's definitely one of my favorites in the harem!

I was so happy to find out that we get to see more of Mackenzie's story in this short story than just the glimpse we got in Reawakened. She and Caden went through a lot of pain after Jasmine left, and I was very glad to see her finally get through all of it, and even more glad to see her and Kyle get the ending they deserved. :)

Loved this book. It was a short read that certainly packed a punch. The relationship between Kyle and Mackenzie was just beautiful and I loved how he helped her through such a vulnerable time. A great read and everything I've come to expect from an SE Roberts book!

I could not put down Kenzie and Kyle’s beautiful story down. It may of been short but it was oh so sweet. I loved this second chance story. So happy Kyle did not give up on Kenz. I loved how he flew to be with her when she was trying to work things out with her mum. S.E stories always make me happy in the end.

I loved this super quick read!

I’m so glad we got to get a little more in-depth look into Kenzie’s life. And Kyle man oh man is he just the sweetest ever. Love him, and their story.

This is a well written short story full of love, heartbreak and wonderful characters, that keep you turning the pages.

I didn't realize when I started this book that it was the last in the series. But even though it was I wasn't confused or have trouble following it.

This was such a sweet & emotional story. I always get drawn to S.E. Roberts characters. Mackenzie has always had some issues dealing from her mother leaving years ago. Kyle has always loved her, been there & supported Kenzie however he could. When she was disappointed when she went to meet her mom Kyle was there so sweet to her. I loved this sweet novella.

A Fantastic short read.

This story is packed with so much. I Love this second chance romance story. This book is a great read and is a good reminder not to let others mistakes hinder your self growth or diminish what you deserve. I believe many can relate to Mackenzie, dealing with a heartache that makes you question yourself. I loved her character growth and You will swoon over Kyle.
I highly recommend this book!
I cant wait to read all of S.E. Roberts books!

Quick & wonderful!

Another great read from this wonderful author! I've really enjoyed following the characters from this series and watching them learn to love and relove after heartache/break. It's great that they can be read alone if you don't like series but it's nice to follow along with the characters and their lives. Can't wait for whatever is next for this author!!!!
