I enjoyed most of these stories. These stories had a little too much sexual content for my liking. I voluntarily chose to review these stories. These are not for the under 18 readers. I've given each of the 3 books, a 4.5* rating. The first two had a lot of action and were real page turners. The third was a little slower and different. The second one had a little violence in it but not much. Now on to the next.

Feel good, romantic books that are everything you want to read when you need some romance. Especially perfect for a summer read, the stories take place in a small town where the characters find and lose love and find themselves in the process.

Mild and charming

The characters are likeable and sweet, the romances are lightly satisfying, but the friendships are the best part of these stories.

The Seasons by Elena Aitkins, who is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. Her books allow you to relax and completely escape from reality. I love how each of her box sets bring to life each of the characters from previous books, you never loose site of who they are and where they are going. The crossover from Castle Mountain to the Springs is seamless.

Summer of Change takes you on a journey with Trent and Sam. She does not like the Springs, she thinks it will ruin her business at the Grizzly Paw and she most certainly wants nothing to do with Trent, one of the owners of the new resort called the Springs, that is until he “gets under her skin …”

Falling Into Forever takes you on a journey with Kari and Rhys. Kari is trying to escape her past and wants to start over and the Springs might be just the place. Rhys a small town cop helps Kari when her Mercedes breaks down. The chemistry between the two of them is unmistakable. Can Kari escape her past and build a new life in the Springs? Will Rhys understand when she tells him why she is running?

Second Glances takes you to the island of Eden, where all your dreams come true. Kylie, wakes up to a mystery envelope at her door step asking her to take a journey to the Island of Eden. Of course Sam insists that she go, explore what the mystery is. Kylie is convinced that her one true love Marcus has finally come around and has realized that she is the one. But will it be Marcus, or his twin brother Malcom who sweeps her off her feet during this week long fantasy trip?

The above books are beyond good, they are an escape from reality and excellent reads. Although you know deep in your heart that each story will have the happily ever after, I found them impossible to put down. My only complaint is I wish there was more of a story with Beth and how her romance came to be.

Standalones-but connected.

I very much enjoyed these stories. The locales were described in breathtaking details, I want to go to both the mountains and the beach now. The characters were both complex and intriguing. The characters all know each other, but each book can be read as a standalone. I can't wait to be able to read Volume Two.

Not bad. Same old formula.

Not bad. Same old formula. Boy meets girl. One of them has commitment issues. They grow to like each other. There's a misunderstanding at a pivotal moment. They declare their love for one another. They live happily ever after.
