Isabella
A Turner Sisters Small Town Romance
A Friends to Lovers Curvy Woman Romance
Isabella
It’s no secret that I’m stressed out.
My sisters avoid me as much as they can and secretly plot to get me laid.
As if that will solve all my problems.
When my oldest friend moves back to town, I don’t time in my busy schedule to meet him.
As the manager of the B&B, I have too much on my plate.
But one sister twists my arm right out the door.
I’m not prepared for the boy I knew to be all grown up into an incredibly sexy man.
And when he offers to help me with our marketing challenges, I know I should say no.
He’s the temptation I don’t want.
But maybe he’s the distraction I need.
Jude
I never thought I’d be back in Daisy Hills.
But my life in the fast lane came crashing down.
I’m here for a fresh start to open my own marketing business.
And Izzy Turner is my first client.
We were inseparable as kids.
I spent half our time together hopelessly pining for her.
She never let me out of the friend zone, and to be honest, I didn’t try very hard to get out of it.
But now a decade later, I can’t help but think that fate has granted us a second chance.
I’m going to help Izzy—with her marketing dilemma, with relaxing, and with opening up her heart to me.
I’m not going to sit on the sideline of our friendship this time.
And I’m not afraid to play a little dirty.
If it’s the last thing I do, I’m going to make her mine.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book.
When Isabella managed to convince her sisters to stay in Daisy Hill and use their inheritance to run a bed and breakfast was the day her dream came true. It she is working herself to the bone trying to make sure her sisters never regret their decision, but even she has to admit that she’s exhausted. So when her best friend Jude from childhood returns to their small town she agrees to meet up with him. When he walked in to the diner no one is more shocked than she. The boy who left her years ago vowing to never come back is no longer a boy but a man. Her attraction is immediate but they are friends, would she be willing to risk her friendship
Isabella convinced her sisters to open up Daisy Hill B&B using their inheritance, she is determined to make sure it’s a decision that they never regret. But with everything she is doing she barely had time to sleep never mind date. But Jude her best friend from childhood is returning to town, it’s been years since he walked away from her vowing he would never return. It’s not until he walks into the diner that she sees the man he has become, gone is the boy he once was. Her attraction is immediate and she finds herself wanting more than friendship, could they share more than friendship, could they have future or will she give in only for him to break her heart?
Jude never in a million years thought he would return to the town he grew up in, he only ever dreamed of escaping to the big city, one thing he did want was Isabella to leave with him, but she had her own plans. It’s been years since he has seen her and after his divorce he needs a change of scenery. He can’t wait to see Izzy after all these years, as a teenager he’d loved her but didn’t want to destroy a friendship but this time it’s different and he’s a man ready to claim what should have always been his. Will he get another chance or will a misunderstanding destroy any chance they may have had?
Very enjoyable read, Izzy was an ideal heroine, self sufficient and independent, Jude is ready to finally claim his woman and build a family with the only woman he ever wanted to. 3.8* read.

The Isabella getting laid campaign finally become successful in so many ways
Isabella is the third book in the Daisy Hills B&B series which is about the five Turner sisters who renovate an old Victorian house they inherited from their Great Aunt Edith and turn it in to a B&B in the small town of Daisy Hills. This story is about the oldest sister Isabella and the man she finds love with, Jude Langston.
Izzy and Jude had been best friends since they were ten years old all the way through to when they graduated high school in the small town of Daisy Hills. But when Jude could not get Izzy to come to the same university he was going to they drifted apart until they only had a few emails between them. Izzy came back to Daisy Hills after getting her degree as she always knew that Daisy Hills would be where she was meant to be. But Jude could not wait to get out and stay out. So after he got his degree he ended up married and traveled the world. Things however did not quite turn out the way Jude had expected and he has come back to Daisy Hills to live and start a business now that he is divorced from his cheating ex. Daisy has been managing the B&B since they opened almost a year and a half ago and she is only getting more stressed with every day and late night. She feels responsible for ensure that the place is a success since it was she who convinced her sisters to leave their careers and renovate and run the B&B together. So when she received an email from Jude asking to meet with her in town she is surprised does not want to take even an hour away from the place. However, her sisters are more than pushing her out the door which is the best thing that has ever happened to her. The skinny boy she once knew has now become a tall and very muscular man, with some mad skills she will quickly learn about. One look at Izzy and Jude is determined to finally make her all his, as he as been in love with her since they first met at ten.
This is a story that was sweet, romantic, entertaining, fun, has some drama and a lot of love and naughty sexy passion. It is well written, has a light story-line with a few dramatic moments and wonderful characters. It is also great to read the sisters interaction as they are all trying to get Izzy to have some fun, even if it is for their own sanity also. Luckily for them Jude comes back to town at just the right moment and is more than happy to team up with them, even if they do not all know it quite yet. This was a lovely read and I can't wait to read the next in the series.

Isabella has taken on a lot of the responsibility at the B and B, she it was her that convinced her family not to sale. Everyone around her can tell she need sometime, but telling her is another story. When her best friend from school decided to come back home, her sister's would not let her miss her date with Jude. Jude has always loved Isabella, but when they went to separate ways for college, their friendship started to fray. Now back home, Jude knows what he wants, can he make Isabella she it also.
I love how Jude comes back and goes down memory lane with Isabella to get her to fall in love with her, again. This was a great addition to the series. Jude and Isabella's story is won that warms your heart.

Isabella is stressed. She is overworked at the Daisy Hill B & B that she runs with her sisters. One is on maternity leave and she is spending all her time at the B & B. She needs help with marketing and web development. Her best friend from high school is meeting her for breakfast. Jude has traveled the world and hasn’t been back for a decade. She has missed him. He sees how stressed she is and offers some help. Jude is starting a new business in town and he has come back for that and for Isabella. After all these years is there anything between them now? Jude is going to let Isabella know he is back for her. The story is about two people who each felt the same way but never told each other. It is a heartwarming, small town love story.

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Isabella is the third book in the ‘’Daisy hills B&B’’ series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Isabella and Jude were best friends until they went to separate colleges. Years later and Jude is back in his small hometown. He is determined to get the girl he has always loved but will Isabella make time for love?
The chemistry between Isabella and Jude is clear to see and I liked them together.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I look forward to more books from this series.

I wanted to like this one so much. It was a great read and I tend to love when the hero and heroine have a crush on each other as youngsters. I think my issue with this one is the fact that Jude proclaimed to love her (to the point where he tried to get her to go to the same college) but he ended up marrying another. I understand they were apart and they both would have other relationships, I personally struggled with that minor part of the story. Once I got past that, it was a great, quick read of former best friends that took it to the next level as adults.

The Anderson Place.
Awesome story. Jude is back in town to stay and he plans on claiming Isabella as his own. Izzy doesn’t have time for dating and relationships since she’s busy at the B&B. She’s been attracted to Jude since high school and still is. They spend time together and fall in love. All’s well and good until Izzy sees Jude with with another woman and leaves him. He has a lot of explaining to do and goes after her. Where will they stand after talking? Come stay at the B&B and listen closely.

I liked this short story a lot. It was entertaining and enjoyable with very little drama or angst. The characters were interesting and likable. Isabella and Jude were best friends in Middle School and High School but grew apart when they both went to different colleges. They have kept in contact by email but haven't seen each other in years. One day Jude asks Isabella to meet him as he is in town. Jude and Isabella realize they are attracted to each other. Things take off from there. I liked their happy ever after. I recommend reading this book.

Jude wins the slow game
I loving this B&B series with the sisters. Finally the oldest Isabella gets her turn. This is a classic best friends to lovers and it was nice. Isabella and Jude instantly connected after years apart. Jude knew immediately that he wanted Isabella for keeps so he did what was needed to keep her. Isabella and her prickly nature took a backseat and she finally rewarded herself with love...with Jude. What a nice story with hardly any angst just sweet and steamy romance.

This was a great story. Quick read, sweet, and quite sexy. Isabella meets up with her best friends after years of being separated. Jude is back in his hometown starting up his own business after getting out of an unhappy marriage and the rate race. He's always loved Izzy and after seeing her again and talking he's ready to pick up the pieces and proceed with "win Izzy's love". It's a happy story with a great HEA. The third sister finally finds her man. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Izzy and Jude were close friends during school, but then Jude went off to college and they lost track of each other. Now after some bad times, he is back and is starting his own marketing business. He looks Izzy up and is going to help her with spreading the word about the B & B. Instant heat now faces these two as they learn to be more than just friends. The characters and the storyline were terrific, as usual with this author. Loved the ending. Very well done.

There was a welcome back home party, for 2. No other attendees is needed. Izzy and Jude are two peas in a heart shaped pod.
Truly an enjoyable and refreshing read.

Izzy and her sisters turn her aunts old house into a B&B with each of them doing a job to help with the everyday running of it. Jude was Izzy’s best friend in school and then moved away. They were secretly in love with each other. Now he’s back. The fun and interesting romance between Jude and Izzy is filled with exciting adventure, jealousy, remembering the past, second chances and true love. Fun read

Second chance for high school friends. Jude left town for college and didn't return till now. Isabella is the cranky driven Turner sister. She bullied her sisters to convert the house they inherited into a family run B & B. The old friends lost touch but sparks fly when the meet to catch up. Old jealousy and a misunderstanding and to the story. The sisters were right about what Izzy needed and helped her get it!

They'd been best friends since middle school, then went their separate ways for college, more than a decade later, they get a second chance. A sweet second-chance romance. I like how Jude knows she's the one and never falters in his resolve to make her his. Their chemistry and passion for one another is steamy. I look forward to Miranda's story!

February 28, 2021Best friends Jude and Izzy have been. They have been a part for about ten years but that is about to change. Good vibes? Check. Claiming a friendship? Check. Claiming and owning feelings? Check. Steam? Check. Cliffhanger? Nope even.

Finally...
I guess I'm like her sisters when super caffeinated Isabella relaxes and finds love. Isabella was micro managing everything because she was worrying about being successful. Then comes her childhood best friend, Jude. Thanks to broken marriage, he is back to claim his bestie.

Isabella finally gets to relax and I wouldn’t mind having someone like Jude help me either. I loved how she finds what she needs in her childhood friend. Jude is one sexy friend and I love how he knows exactly what he wants. I also love that we get more than one steamy scene.

Isabella and Jude were best friends when they were young. But Jude wanted more. Jude moved away but is now back in town. Maybe now Isabella will see him in a different light. Short steamy read.
