A must-read series! I love Tim with Lize and their story. The love at first sight, the way he takes of her and her daughter Ashley makes my heart happy. Lize has worked hard for everyone and everything but herself. Tim steps into her life and tips the scales in her favor.
But a surprise and a cliffhanger of an ending have me waiting impatiently for the next book in the series.
Thank you to the author for the advanced copy; this is my voluntary review.

RATING:
4 STARS
Cherish by Stacy Stone is a perfect choice for fans of the rockstar romance genre as well as fans of single-parent romance stories. This book focuses on the last member of the band, bassist Tim, but fear not! There is another book coming in October 2021 that focuses on Mike who is the head of security for Full Moon. As opposed to other rockstar romance series that I have read, Ms. Stone is planning on including books that focus on other people in the band’s orbit instead of just the musicians. I applaud this decision because the musicians, while a large part of a band becoming successful, are not the only components required to have a successful band. I also really appreciate how close all the members of Full Moon are - wives included.
Tim is the bassist for Full Moon and has basically sworn off relationships after having to deal with his nightmare ex-fiance Vanessa. But when Lize and her four-year-old daughter Ashley end up crashing into his life, he has to decide what he wants for his future and if he’s willing to fight for them to be in it. Of course, there are lots of trademark Stacy Stone steamy moments between Tim and Lize. You also get a lot of bonus fluffy moments between Tim and Ashley though (which haven’t really been a thing in the previous books). My heart nearly burst from sheer adorableness when she accidentally called him Daddy for the first time.
Holey Moley - that ending left me completely shocked. I was expecting something more happily ever after like some of the other books in the series, but this is a total cliffhanger. I NEED to read the next book in the series, Love because I need to know what happens with Mike and Karen. While you can technically read all of the books in the Full Moon series as standalone, I highly recommend reading them in order because it will add depth to your reading experience and make it more enjoyable.

He proves it her and he see she is good soul & her daughter is just adorable 🥰 Especially when she calls him daddy for the first time...no more spoilers. Yes that my fav scene because they are now a family and Ashey knows she officially has a dad!! That no more spoilers!

What a fabulous rockstar instalove fairytale. Tim could not be any more perfect. I've loved all the books in the Full Moon series and I've loved every love story. But Tim and Lize are just that extra bit special.
Lize is a single mum who struggles to rely on anyone aside from herself. The last man she loved died so she is not putting her heart on the line again. Tim is smitten at first sight and leaves little room for negotiation when it comes to keeping Lize and her daughter safe.
These two are fun and playful and heated. They are seriously steamy together bringing out a bit of dominance play and dirty talking. They have a very believable chemistry and connection.
This book is a perfect fairytale till the huge surprise cliffhanger ending. I'm left feeling a whole bunch of emotions I wasn't expecting. Roll on Love.

Another phenomenal installment of the Full Moon series this time featuring bassist Tim and Lize. Lize is carrying so many burdens in her life that you have to be concerned for her, but also admire the love she has for her little daughter. After she accidently drops a tray of drinks on Tim she is called to her boss's office and has to endure horrific sexual abuse. Luckily she manages to escape but knows that her boss and his goons will be looking for her.
Her best friend Sarah helps her out by getting her a place to stay with her brother Tim and this is the start of an unforgettable love story. Tim is afraid of getting close to someone after being burned in his last relationship. Lize is also not looking for love she is only concerned for her daughter not herself. Regardless there are immediate sparks between them and Tim finds himself suddenly wanting what his other band members have, a family, he just has to persuade Lise to stay.
This is probably the most heartbreaking and emotional book of the series so far but it also comes with some lovely surprises, who knew that Tim would know how to put a bed back together? it is not what rock stars usually do! Though Lise was initially terrified to accept anything from Tim it was good to see her finally taking what he was happy to give her and this included a new circle of friends. The best thing about the new girl friends was that they understood what she was going through and were willing to help her. Lise's daughter Ashley is the star of the book an absolute sweetie who was ready to embrace her new life with Tim.
As Stacy left us with a cliffhanger I am more than ready to get into the next book. If you have not met the guys from Full Moon yet what are you waiting for?

Tim and Lize meet in a very unconventional place, in the most embarrassing way. All it takes is one look. He doesn't believe in love at first sight, but that is what looking into her eyes makes him feel.
Lize is going to take some convincing. She has too much to lose. A well-meaning friend has an idea to help her hide out from a very disgruntled boss. Too bad that place just happens to be Tim's.
Tim made me feel cherished. The author pulls you in and takes you on a rollercoaster of love. The highs and lows hit hard and fast, but it will leave you with all the feels. It also reminds you that every moment should be cherished because you never know when it could be your last.

Oh my gosh, loved it! Couldn't put the book down. Absolutely loved Tim. What a gentleman. The ending though wow, can't wait for the next book

This book was amazing. I couldn't put it down. Tim has seen all his fellow band mates fall in love. When his sister calls for a favor he is about to meet his undoing. This book was a wonderful read and I love this series so much. This book left on a cliffhanger and I need the next book NOW! Stacy Stone is a must read author.

Fun read
This is a sweet insta-love romance with a rock star but in a 'normal' setting. Lize is a sweet woman who has had a difficult life. Tim isn't looking for a relationship but when he sees Lize then she falls into his life, he knows she is it. Fun light read.

Noooooo! You did not just leave me hanging like that. What a brilliantly beautiful love story. This was a relationship that was an instant connection, one that was undeniable and one that was fast, fun, and forever. However putting that aside, the storyline is sinister and completely heartbreaking.
Tim and Lize's story isn't just about them, There was a little lady, Lize's daughter Ashley that was a special and huge part of them. If not the most important part of them. Lize and Ashley are from the different sides of the tracks to Tim. It is obvious that anyone would be as he is a rock god. This book starts with a bang and ends pretty much the same way.
This book fueled a strong emotional response and I spent a large part of this book with a ball of emotion stuck in my throat. And I really can't believe the book was left how it was. I really can't wait for the next book Love. In the meantime, this book is a huge recommendation from me.

Stacy manages to blow my mind yet again with another explosive addition to the men of Full Moon and the woman they love. Tim and Lize’s story was so much fun with a love at first sight story and some drama along with this story of two kindred souls connecting. Not including Tim’s automatic bond with Lize’s daughter, Ashley, was so touching and sweet.

Lize was such a passionate character with an intense background but an amazing mother to her daughter. She is strong and determined to make sure Ashley is taken care of, and her willingness to go above and beyond for her child said a lot about her character. Her hesitancy of her past is truly understandable and unfortunate.

It was so interesting to see what type of man Tim truly was outside of the band. His heart is huge, regardless of his past relationship, and the extremes at which he goes to prove his feelings was unbelievable. And, his willingness to help Lize overcome her past combined with his patience has my heart beating in overtime.

Man did the fireworks explode with their chemistry. Sizzling hot hot passion and steam with every touch. And, their ability to work through the obstacles thrown in their way only adds to the intensity of their connection. But, as always, Stacy killed my soul with this cliffhanger ❤️🔥

OH MY HELL! Each new book in the Full Moon series gets better and better, and Cherish is no exception that's for sure. I don't know how many of you have a preconceived notion of what the hero's name should be, but I was a bit leary about a hero named Tim. I know that sounds crazy but it is what it is. Let me tell you, I'll remember this Tim for the rest of my life as his story is quite crazy. He's given up on love, but he never saw Lize coming. She's a girl who has a lot of responsibility on her shoulders, and the job she hates isn't helping anything to be honest so she ends up talking to a friend about it all, which is how she ends up in Tim's path. The chemistry is sizzling right off the pages, but it's angst that punched me in the feels, then BAM! A twist that truly came out of nowhere to do my head in & now we have to wait to find out how it all pans out because of the insane cliffhanger. So yeah, this story was filled with all kinds of goodness that you shouldn't miss out on as I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
September 27, 2021
The Gods must have been shining down on me when I stumbled upon the Full Moon series and had my first interaction with Stacy Stone, because this series has just grown and grown with each couple.
Of all the books so far, I found Cherish and Tim and Lize's story the most emotional and believe me the others have torn at my heartstrings. But there was something deeply captivating about single mom Lize's vulnerability and the way with patients our big bad rocker Tim brought Lize out of her shell. Tim totally made me swoon, and I found myself unable to put the book down until the end, and what an ending it was, this has to have been the most unexpected of them all and I couldn't believe that Ms Stone added a twist that nobody will see coming. If anybody deserves her HEA it is Lize, and she deserves the best which Tim 💯is!

Oh. My. God. The cliffhanger. 😭😭😭😭
This book was AMAZING! I think my favorite from the series so far!!!
How he just picks up the broken pieces and heals her and takes Ashley as his own😭 all the future things he sees with her..i loved it. So much. He is so gentle with her, and the love they have radiates through the book.
The ending killed me, and I can't wait for the next to release so I can devour it like all the rest of them!

"An Exciting, Heartfelt, and Addicting Story"
Cherish, by Stacy Stone, is an exciting, heartfelt, and addicting story with wonderful characters, adorable children and nail-biting moments. It's mystery and inked rockstar moments had this reader eager for lots of music, angst and swoon-worthy attraction. It's beautifully eye-catching quote set the stage for a gorgeously heartwarming read.
"I love you not only for who you are, I love you for who I become when I'm with you."
Gah, I was a puddle of goo upon reading this and started to look forward to reading more of this endearing source of honesty. I love stories with haunted characters who have so many demons that it's miraculous they're able to function in any capacity. So when there's a chivalrous character who sets out to slay those demons, I tend to squeal quite loudly. And, that's what I did. Tim, the bassist for Full Moon, was this guardian angel in spades, who came to the rescue of Lize, a hard-working mother full of heartache and barely there self-preservation as a result of partially hidden triggered demons. Both characters, with an automatic attraction for the other, had the makings of many sleepless nights for this reader. Collectively, they became what they both needed to be. A family.
I really liked this story. Loved the fact that it was slated as a rockstar romance. Throw in a kind, protective, sexy family oriented man? Yes, please! I loved Tim and his strongly delicate ways of helping Lize heal, even though I wasn't entirely crazy about the periodic caveman-esque moments, but never-the-less, as a whole, he had a heart of gold. I found myself actually cheering frequently for the secondary characters, as I felt a great connection with them already, even though I haven't read their stories, which I strongly recommend doing so as their stories are all interconnected.
However. There were moments when I almost threw my kindle across the room out of frustration and disbelief. With this, I needed more of a fluid plot, with more depth and development, as it is in this reader's opinion that, it felt like it contained many dips and turns without that needed focus and structure to key areas. Just as I was getting into a certain part of the plot, it was over before it had even started. Perhaps this was why I felt more of a connection with the secondary characters than the main ones throughout the entire read. In addition, I may have screamed a wee bit due to the existence of a minor spoiler for the next book in the series, Love. Oh my goodness, spoilers are a no-go for this reader. It spoils the story when part of it is visible in some capacity. Lastly, for it to be considered a rockstar romance, it needs to have a whole lot more of actual rockstar moments other than minor bits and pieces.
That all being said, I still really did like Cherish, and as the title implies, Tim cherished Lize like there was no tomorrow. It was beautiful. It was unconditional. Despite a need for another round through the editing process, as there were many typos, this was a great story with just as addicting characters, and oh yeah, there was also a psychopath and one heck of a cliffhanger to boot. Even so, I still really liked it....:)

Like everything Stacy has written for the Full Moon's this book is no different. Love all these guys!
Tim has decided he is done with relationships. After a 5-stage clinger relationship finally ends with Vanessa, he is over dealing with them. One can’t blame him for his hesitancy especially since he is on tour with the band he plays for Full Moon. The funny thing is, we know how the universe works when we make decisions like that, it laughs in our faces.
Lize is a single mom who is doing everything she can to make it in this world. She has been given a tough hand and it just got worse when she starts to take over the care for her mom, when her stepdad makes things even harder. Her daughter has been her top priority from the beginning and after another dead end job Lize, needs to make some changes. After accidently tripping into Tim her life takes a drastic change.
I seriously love seeing these two fall in love. It wasn’t sudden but gradual and the support he gives to Lize as she cares for her daughter. The ending though, seriously wow! The cliffhanger into the next book has my not so patiently waiting. I need to know what happens and soon!

She has been given a tough hand and it just got worse when she starts to take over the care for her mom, when her stepdad makes things even harder. Her daughter has been her top priority from the beginning and after another dead end job Lize, needs to make some changes. After accidently tripping into Tim her life takes a drastic change.
I seriously love seeing these two fall in love. It wasn’t sudden but gradual and the support he gives to Lize as she cares for her daughter. The ending though, seriously wow! The cliffhanger into the next book has my not so patiently waiting. I need to know what happens and soon!

Cherish is the 5th book in the Full Moon series. It is described as a standalone and can be read as one. The author does a great job at giving details so that you don't feel lost. But…...it does end on a cliffhanger and there is no epilogue or true HEA at the end of the story. I loved the book and if it wasn't for this small detail it would have been a 5 star read. If you love to read book series with interconnected characters and storylines, this is one to pick up.
Cherish is the story of Lize, a struggling single mom who meets Tim, the bassist for a famous rock band. There is an insta-attraction between this single mom and rockstar. Tim is kind, protective, sexy, and caring and will do anything to keep Lize and be a dad to her 4-year old daughter. Lize struggles to believe that this perfect man and relationship will last. Drama unfolds from her old boss [possible trigger warning], his ex, her stepfather, and an unexpected foe from the band's past. Even with the cliffhanger, Tim and Lize will get their HEA.

This beautiful love at first site story ends on a cliff hanger. Tim swore off relationships after his last one ended badly, but when Tim sees Lize the first time he is enamored. Tim will do whatever is necessary to take care of Lize and her daughter.
Lize has worked hard to take care of her little girl, but after one bad night at work she just can't keep that job, is unsure where she is going to next,and her step-father takes her rent money so now she is going to be homeless. In comes Tim, he is her knight in shining armor. He is everything she has ever needed and wanted, and he gives her a tight knit group of friends to call her own and accept her.
I was not expecting the cliff hanger and I am waiting impatiently for the next book in this series.

This is the 5th book in this awesome series and is Tim and Lize’s story. Lize is a strong and determined single mom to her daughter, and she works hard to take care of everyone else and forgets about herself. Tim is a rock god with a caring and huge heart, and from the moment he and Lize meets there is an instant love between them, and I loved the lengths which Tim will go to prove his love for Lize and her daughter. This story ends in a cliffhanger, and I look forward reading more in this fascinating series. This is a beautifully written story which is emotionally charged, fast paced, and with drama, passion, undeniable chemistry, and love, which leads to a fun and entertaining addictive page turner. I highly recommend this talented authors work for all.

This series is great!
I love the romance and suspense packed into these books. Now we have Tim and Lize’s love story, and what a story it is…from their unusual meeting to the intensity of their love for each other. Lize’s daughter, Ashley helps Tim realize that a family and children is what he wants in his life. Then there is the deranged psychopath former manager of the band that makes an appearance endangering all their lives. If you like rockstar romances with a touch of suspense, then you have to read this one, but I do recommend you read them all in order.

If you believe in love at first sight this is the book for you. The fact that it's Tim makes it even better. Tim claimed he would never fall in love like his band mates did. Then Lize came into his life and all that bluster came to a full stop. Lize is more cautious because of Ashley but Tim is not to be denied. It's not creepy, it's genuine. This book is one of my favorites in this series.

So many crises!
This one was over the top with crisis after crisis, and insta love on top of all that.
Lize has had such a sad life. What her boss tried is despicable. Tim, who swore off love and relationships after the horrid Vanessa, falls almost instantly for Lize. And for her daughter.
Ends on a cliffhanger before Mike’s book.

So far this is my favorite book on this series, maybe because I got attached with previous characters and the Full Moon family is so appealing and interesting; But the truth is, when you think there is not much more to come the plot keeps getting better and better!
The storyline was sweet, heartwarming and even when I'm not a fan of insta-love or insta-family stories, this one I liked!
The cherry on the top goes to the huge plot twist and the cliffhanger, like OMG what's gonna happen kinda of twist! I cant wait for the last book!
4.5 stars!

great Story
Even though it’s a happily ever after there is a cliffhanger ending here. I’m OK with it I don’t usually like to read books with cliffhangers but it’s not the main characters. So I guess I’ll be reading the next story when it comes out.
