Writer + photographer + on assignment = Southern heat
Tyler is the fifth book in the Darlington Brothers series. This time it is Tyler Darlington's turn to find love in the form of Savannah Barrows. But there is a lot more to the story of Tyler, some tragic, some funny and some crazy. Tyler has pursued his love of photography and did not join the family realty company. He became a well known National Geographic photographer who traveled the world and enjoyed his life. He also had the woman that he thought he would spend his life with, Elizabeth. But she is taken while he was on assignment and he is heartbroken. He decides to come back home to grieve, heal and restart his life. He still does not join the family business but he does not stop being a photographer and starts his own studio doing boudoir shots. He also goes on some crazy dates and meets some interesting women after deciding he does not want to be alone. Sometimes it is better to be alone I think. Tyler is hired for an assignment for Bridgetown Magazine to accompany a writer on a trip in the south for a story on historic homes. The writer is Savannah and Tyler is attracted to her immediately. But this is business and you don't mix business and pleasure if you want to be professional. However, they spend a toe curling, soul searing night together at the end of the trip. Savannah wants to forget it ever happened but Tyler cannot do that, he is in love. He wants to prove to Savannah that they would be really good together and he goes about trying to do that, even if she does not want to talk to him again.
Tyler is an absolute love. He is charming, slightly broken, hard working and just a wonderful man. Savannah is smart, beautiful, feisty, witty, funny and so much more. Together they are wonderful as they navigate a professional relationship and then maybe more. This is another wonderful story to the series.
I received a copy of this book for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This book focuses on two people who, for their own separate reasons, have sworn off ever loving again. Fate just loves when that happens, because it’s a challenge always accepted while love waits eagerly in the wings. (Sorry, I must need more coffee…)
When Tyler Darlington loses the love of his life, he doesn’t want to risk love again. He buries himself in his work as a freelance photographer and successful real estate agent in his family’s business. When he gets a chance to photograph historic estates to accompany an article being published, he jumps at the opportunity.
Savannah Barrows is the woman writing the article that Tyler’s photos will enhance. She also has sworn off love because of bad experiences with men. It is easier to throw herself into work and not risk her heart ever again.
When they accidentally are locked inside an old cabin, all the “rules” are pushed aside as they indulge in a night of passion. When the night ends, Savannah becomes stand-offish and pushes Tyler away. Her commitment issues are fully engaged! But Tyler is unwilling to lose her now that he knows what he wants. Can Tyler change Savannah’s mind? Can he prove somehow that he is not like the others who have soured her to love? Can she learn he is worthy of trust and deserving of her love?
This was a good story. Grab your copy and see if the two of them are ready to drop their barriers and explore the possibilities of a HEA.
Tyler is the fifth book in the Darlington Brothers series. It can be read as a standalone, but I think it’s more enjoyable to read the series in order. That’s just my opinion though. If you read this book before the other four you will not feel lost or like you’re missing something. There is obviously interaction with the other characters in previous books since they’re his brothers but that only a very small part of the book. I loved Tyler. He’s a sweet guy who is very heart broken from losing the love of his life. I liked Savannah when I first met her. She’s funny and sassy and seems like a perfect match for Tyler but then the way she starts to treat him I had a really hard time with that but none of the Darlington brothers have had an easy time finding love and I didn’t think Tyler would be any different. After hearing her full story her attitude becomes a little more understandable.
Tyler lost the love of his life while he was on a photo shoot for National Geographic. He doesn’t think he’ll find another woman to love. Over time he starts to heal and date again, but he keeps finding crazy ones using online dating, so he decides to give up the online dating and figures if it’s meant to be, he’ll find her naturally. He meets Savannah on a trip back east for a photoshoot. She’s sassy and funny but she’s been hurt numerous times by the men in her life. Can Tyler convince her that he’s not like those other guys.

I received a free ARC copy in exchange for my honest review. This is my own opinion.
Tyler Darlington is a photographer, dividing his time between working with his brothers at Darlington Realty and freelance work for his own studio. When he was shooting pictures for National Geographic he finds love and loses her. After watching most of his brothers find love and marry, he is ready to try again. After a few crazy dates he gives up.
Savannah Barrows has had really bad luck with men. She has vowed to never let another man into her heart because they will break it and her. As a reporter she is assigned to write about Southern Plantations. Tyler is hired to provide photos for the article.
Tyler falls hard and fast. When she pushes him away he has his work cut out for him. Tyler is definitely the most romantic of the Darlington brothers. He makes you swoon with his plans to win over Savannah, who tries hard to maintain the walls around her heart.
Once again Avery North has written a sexy, sweet romance that ends with a once again perfect happily ever after. Tyler is book five in the Darlington Brothers series. All books are standalone stories but none of the stories will disappoint. I recommend them all.
⚓⚓ONE EMOTIONAL LANDSLIDE⚓⚓ Delightful! Avery delivers with this heart pounding, pulse racing, titillating debacle, unleashing one helluva emotional overload, with this delectably scrumptious piece of perfection, serving up some simmering heat, relentless passion and sizzling desire, hooking you from the start and reeling you in for the duration, catapulting this gem to staggering heights. Anarchy, escapades and havoc run amuck, broken boundaries and crushed limitations are expanded and amplified, baring the soaring up and agonizing downs, breathtaking in it's simplicity and beautiful in it's depth, blasting this baby to life brilliantly. The magmatism, affection and chemistry explode with such intensity, drawing our characters deeper, binding them to one another perfectly. The characters, interactions and charged atmosphere along with qualities and traits that add depth and diversity, transform into genuine charismatic personalities. The scenes are abundantly descriptive with colorful details that blend and flow, creating a majestic backdrop that's so rich and lively it feels as though you were transported to ground zero with them. Remarkable job Avery, thanks for sharing this hot little number with us.
Tyler is a man ready to find a good woman and settle down but ever since he fell in love with a woman he met while he was doing a photoshoot for National Geographics and she died it seems that every woman seems to not measure up and then he joined a dating app but the two women he met left a lot to be desired. Then he was asked to do a shoot for a magazine in Charleston South Carolina and he met Savannah a writer who was to write the article to go with his pictures, They got along well and then they got locked into a cabin on a plantation and had to stay the night and she kissed him which led to that night's entertainment but the next morning she snubbed him and told him she wasn't interested. Then they met again at an awards ceremony in Chicago she was hoping that Tyler wouldn't be there but no such luck. Savannah has been hurt badly by every man she has felt something for and she refuses to be hurt by another man ever again and turns her back on Tyler. But he talks to his family and he will not give up on this woman. This is their story short and lovable. Great storyline and the characters are superb.

I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review
This is the fifth book in the Darlington Brothers series. This is Tyler’s story. Author Avery North has written a truly fantastic series!! Every single brother’s story has been heartbreaking, but also encouraging, and full of triumph!! Tyler’s story is no different. Tyler starts out completely heartbroken, but finds hope in southern belle, Savannah!! I highly recommend this book!! I can’t wait for the next, and youngest Darlington Brother’s story, Joey 💙
Tyler Darlington loses the love of his life, Elizabeth, while at a photo shoot. Devastated, Tyler throws himself into his work, as a freelance photographer and working at his family’s real estate business.
Suddenly, Tyler gets the opportunity of a lifetime.....a huge photo shoot!! While there, he meets Savannah. Tyler can’t help but start to develop feelings for her. Savannah wants to give Tyler a chance, too, but how can she when she has also been hurt in the past??
Like his brothers, Tyler goes out with some really possessive and crazy women which leads me to the question what on earth did he put on his profile to only draw the crazy women or did he go purely for looks? This is getting a bit overdone in the books.
When Tyler meets Savanah, they spend some time together but their relationship comes to an abrupt end, when Savanah decides that she won't risk being hurt again. I found Savanah to be immature and childish at times and felt Tyler could do better. She is not the only one who was devastated previously, Tyler was as well. I had a hard time mustering up any sympathy for her by the time she told Tyler what happened to her. Even after she tells him, he tries but she really treats him badly and I loved it when he told her he is done with being treated that way by her. I loved Tyler and I really think he could have done better and she never even apologized for the way she had treated him. It was still a good read.

This is the Fifth installment to the Darlington Brothers Saga, this is also a stand-alone but can be red Consecutively(in order, which I highly suggest because all the characters are lovely).
Avery North has done it again! She’s taken simple words and helped create an exciting, Romantic Movie that plays in my head whilst I read the words. Her ability to bring words to life like this is amazing and to be able to bring Tyler and Savannah’s life alive like this is exciting! Southern Belle meets Freelance Photographer and the Chemistry is palpable! They’re love sets the pages on fire as well as their trails through the book. It was great to see how Tyler’s life would unfold and I can’t wait to read the next book!! I’d say that this was a solid Four Star Read, I recommend this Author as well as this Book to anyone who enjoys Romance, a page-turner, Drama and Excitement.

I am so addicted to this series! It is the fifth book of the series and each one just keeps getting better and better! You can read it as a standalone, but I would definitely recommend reading all the brother's stories. You won't be sorry! This story is about Tyler. He lost the love of his life while on a photo shoot and he has started dating again, but just can't seem to find the right person. Then Savannah comes along. Her attitude isn't the greatest, but once you learn her history, you understand why she is like that. I really enjoyed these two together and I loved their interactions and they had wonderful chemistry. This is a touching story of healing and finding love again. Great addition to the series. Looking forward to the next one!

I really enjoyed reading Tyler: Darlington Brothers Series Book 5 by Avery North because it was such a great story about Tyler and Savanah. Tyler was an amazing photographer and a long time ago, lost the love of his life. He wanted to find love again but it was hard and frustrating. He met Savanah at a job that they were both working together for an article that was going to be published in a magazine. They had such steamy chemistry, but Savanah was afraid and told Tyler to leave. Their relationship took some time to come together. I really hoped that they would eventually get together. They were each other's soulmates. I highly recommend reading this story.

This is the 5th book in the Darlington Brothers series. Not only is Tyler a realtor, like his brothers, but he is a famous photographer. Many years ago he met, who he thought was the love of his life. She died and he thought he would never love again. Then he and Savannah met while on a job together. As they spent time together, they developed feelings for each other. Savannah had been hurt badly in previous relationships and wouldn’t commit to Tyler. As the story unfolds, he slowly wins her over and they get their HEA. This is a very well developed and entertaining storyline. It is a stand-alone but I highly recommend the series This review is based on a complimentary pre-release copy from BookSprout
Tyler and Savannah have both had terrible romantic histories, from death to abuse. Neither is planning on ever opening up, especially Savannah. The magazine she works for is doing a piece on southern plantations and she is the writer and Tyler is the photographer. During their time together they hit some sparks and then it all falls down. The characters are strong and determined in their goals and life decisions. Romance, when it sparks, is all encompassing and intense. Stress hits when one will not let their guard down and the fact they live so far apart. I will never think of plantation slave cabins the same again. This is the best of the series so far. Can not wait to read the next one.

After a few misses in the dating world, Tyler gives up looking for a girlfriend till Savannah falls in his lap asking him to photograph some historic homes. This story was fantastic. Hot when it called for it, Savannah was good for him in a slow build relationship that he had to work for. They was lots of tension between them, but the mutual attraction won out. IIdeally enjoyed the dating disasters at the start, which is how he realised he was on a good thing with Savannah. Such a good book and unlike the others in the series.

Another fantastic book in this series by the author. I might have shed a tear or two while reading this book. This is the 5th book in the series and once I have finished one I want to go to the next one. My next one is waiting for me to put on my reader to review. This one is the story of Tyler. The story just flowed from start to finish for me. I never found any spelling mistakes or any holes in the plot of the story. The characters really worked so well together and I had a great connection with them as well. I sure do recommend this series of books by Avery if you are over the age of 18+
