One look at the curvy little librarian and this Navy Seal is Blown Away.
Seth
I’m minding my own business trying to adjust to life after retirement when I find a lost animal. He’s the ugliest dog I’ve ever seen, but I realize someone is missing him. Meeting the little dog’s owner blows me away. Who knew my good deed would lead to me finding my soulmate?
Quin
Don’t get me wrong. I’m happy the big jerk saved Mr. Pickles, but his grumpy attitude leaves a lot to be desired. When the big lug flirts with me, I shut that mess down real quick. I don’t have time to deal with the surly ex-Navy Seal. Even if he makes my palms sweaty and heart beat out of rhythm. Nope. Not going to give him a chance.
The newly retired military man has his work cut out for him, but he’ll do whatever it takes to make this curvy librarian his. For life.

I hate instalove stories. I really do. But I decided to give this one a shot because the synopsis sounded really good. I loved the H, he was super alpha and the whole "you're mine" thing just does it for me. But, "I love you" during their first time, and after their first date. Blech

2.5 stars. Gumpy sunshine...Retired military man Seth finds a very ugly lost dog and returns it to librarian Quin and is short and unfriendly to her. He regrets his harsh demeanor because he instaloves Quin and she instaloves him and they say I love you uber fast, like in one day. I just need a bit more in my instalove. I think I prefer the "you are mine" trope but I think there needs to be a little more interaction and relationship building.
Seal Team Romeo series + Loni Ree + Silver Spoon Falls MC series + Mr. Pickles = Laugh out loud PERFECTION!
My goodness did I enjoy this story! We have a military hero, a librarian, a hairless dog, a Grammy everyone wishes they had, and a wildly hilarious and overprotective older brother, all rolled into one. What more could a reader ask for? How about a sweet and $exy love story that will make you swoon at one sentence and laugh as you read the next. Seth and Quin will capture your heart.
The Seal Team Romeo series is wonderful and I’ve loved every book. Loni Ree is a mad scientist genius for plopping her Romeo SEAL right in the middle of Silver Spoon Falls, the town in which she and fellow author Nicole Rose, have created for their own series, Silver Spoon Falls MC. I strongly recommend reading all the books in both series. It will be time well spent and you’ll find yourself smiling endlessly because of all the yummy, instalove goodness.
I’m looking forward to August, when Karma finally bites Rafe (Quin’s ridiculous brother) in the a$s when he finds his own HEA in The Architect.
Blown Away is a story that will blow you away. I love the mix of ex-military, Silver Spoon MC, the feisty librarian, throw in a grandma with fire and a dog that you can't help to love, and you have a great story that you don't want to put down.
Seth has just gotten out of the military; with no real family he is looking for a place to settle. When a brother mentioned Sliver Spoon, he did not expect that a hairless dog would lead him to the love of his live. Quin is the town's librarian and loves her family and her dog, but the one thing she will not let them decide on who she is to be with, even with her overprotective brother.
This is a perfect addition to your library and a tale that will pull you in from the start. I love Mr. Pickles!!!

If you love steamy age gap romances with ex military men and their curvy soulmates, this is a book for you. Seth and Quin are fantastic characters on a journey that’s going to bring them together thanks to Quin’s dog. When Seth retired from the bomb squad and moved to Silver Spoon Falls, he never expected to be blown away in a different way. Quin is all he can think of from their first interaction and he wants nothing more than to make her his. Read this book and enjoy their journey to falling in love, winning over her very protective brother, and having one of the sweetest HEAs. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and definitely recommend reading it. I received an advance copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review.
HEA Standalone, interconnected characters *over 18 readers only* Navy SEAL, Curvy girl Seal Team Romeo series - different authors, same group Related to Silver Spoon Falls series
Seth, a Navy SEAL, moves to Silver Spoon Falls. He finds a loose dog that belongs to Quin, who works for the library. It's a Chinese Crested or ugly looking dog. Immediately, the water has claimed another. Then he gets into a fight with her brother, Rafe, without realizing it's her brother. This story comes before Rafe's in the SSMC series. Seth needs to convince Quin to give him a chance. She's mad at him for his comments about her dog. The dynamic between Rafe and Seth is funny. The dog is comedic relief. I really enjoy the books by this author.
I love when books make me laugh and/or cry, this one head me laughing. Seth retired from the service and lives in a small town in TX, he had visited years ago and liked the atmosphere. Quin worked in the library and own an odd looking dog, Mr Pickles (the breed is in the book). Mr Pickles gets out of his fenced in yard and Seth saves him. Mr Pickles owners number is on his collar. When Seth meets her it's love at first sight. Not so much for Quin or her brother, Rafe. Read what happens between all of them, it's hilarious! I loved it, written by Cindy :)
Seth is a retired Navy SEAL that found his new permanent home in Silver Spoon. He saves a hairless dog and just finds his soulmate in the process. Quin is the town librarian and the owner of Mr. Pickles. As soon as they meet..... Seth botched his first impression. He can't forget the curvy librarian and he fights for a second chance. A totally safe, sweet, romantic, steamy and fun story to read. 😍😍😍😍😍Instalove with great banter between the main characters and between others too 😉 Can't wait for Rafe to fall head over heels for his woman🤣🤣🤣
Loved Seth and Quin! Seth was a loner, but found love and family and Quin was a sassy sweetheart. She was definitely (over)protected by her big brother Rafe and his Silver Spoon MC brothers(loved the crossover!) These two had a bit of an awkward start thanks to an interesting looking Mr. Pickles, but fate doesn't take no for an answer and these two were meant to be!❤️ Definitely recommend and am looking forward to Rafes story, especially after all the teasing and pranks between him and Seth😏
I’m so happy to be back in Silver Spoon Falls! I loved this book right from page one. It’s always the ladies that stumble over their words with the hot guys but the way Seth fumbled his words when meeting Quin the first time!? That just sealed it for me! Love them together. Love the relationship between Seth and Quinn’s brother. Love the connection to the Silver Spoon MC. So good!
Instalove romances are my jam and 𝗕𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗬 was that and more.
Seth is a sexy giant of a man who loses his ever loving mind when he meets his curvaceous soulmate, Quin. The two are drawn to each other and the sparks are uncontrollable. I enjoyed watching Seth and Quin fall in love. It was sweet, it was sexy, it was the best kind of read in one sitting romance.
I’m giving 𝗕𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗔𝗪𝗔𝗬 the judy.ann.loves.books stamp of approval, TBR and Enjoy!
Seth is starting over and chance encounter with the ugliest dog he has ever seen leads him to the beautiful Quin. Quin cant belive that the handsome Seth just called her precious furbaby ugly, the nerve of that man. Seth realized he put his foot in his mouth and now needs to work on getting Quin to forgive him. These two have some pretty hot chemistry and banter. A very enjoyable read.
What does a white fluff of fur named Mr. Pickles, a grumpy Navy SEAL and a sassy Librarian have in common???? Love apparently. I loved being back in Silver Falls and watching Seth win over not only Quin but Mr. Pickles, Grammy and Rafe. Their banter was hysterical and their connection was undeniable. Perfect OTT Alpha snack to keep me going.
My reviews always contain spoilers, I write them so I can remember the story.
Super fast instalove, Seth is a retired Navy Seal, Quin is the town librarian. Seth rescues Quin’s dog, when he goes to return him he is struck by love for his curvy librarian, but of course puts his foot in his mouth. It takes him a few weeks but he finally wins her over. Her brother Rafe a Silver Spoons MC member is not to happy about her dating Seth but Quin’s grandmother approves and Quin really likes him. After their first date they have their first time, she’s a virgin, he’s been celibate for years. I love yous, she asks him to move in and Seth works with Rafe on a proposal and a surprise wedding for Quin. Epilogue five years later with a daughter and Quin about to give birth to their second daughter. Seth and Rafe have become great friends, can’t wait for Rafe to find his one, he has given Seth so much grief over being an in love sap.

Seth & Quinn we’re the cutest couple and had me blushing the whole book over how steamy and sweet they were with each other. Not only was Blown Away super sweet, it was also full is Quinn being her amazingly sassy self. I loved how her brother and Mr. Pickles were pretty funny as well, and it just added to how much I loved the story. I can’t wait for more!
I am not sure who has more sass Quin or Mr Pickles...but they both bring Seth to his knees. This novella is packed with instalove, fun, laughter, interfering family members and a gossipy small town...awesome! I read this on Kindle Unlimited.
This was very funny and it all started with a runaway almost hairless dog. Seth saw Quin and knew he had to make her his. Now if he ban convince her? And not only does he have to win her over but her overprotective brother as well. Good read.
I absolutely LOVED it!!! Seth and Quin are perfect for each other!!! I laughed so hard at some scenes I cried!! So many hilarious moments and A LOT of swoon worthy ones too🔥🔥🥵🥵 I can't WAIT for Rafe's story! HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book!!!
I absolutely love the newest book in the Seal Team Romeo series. Seth meets Quin when he rescues her dog Mr. Pickles a hairless pure breed Chinese Crested. There banter is funny and will make you fall in lovewith their story. Love every book Loni writes.
This was a great quick little read. Perfect for the start to my summer. I loved seeing Silver Spoon Falls MC characters and Seth and Quin were a wonderful couple. The banter between Rafe and Seth and the dog was funny also.
I usually like books by Loni Ree but this one felt rushed. There wasn't enough time for me to really fall for the characters and to see the connection between the hero and heroine. I know it's an instalove but it felt forced.
Cute short story companion to the Silver Spoon Falls series. Cute story about a retired Navy Seal. Wish there was more details and background on Seth and Quin. Cute story with lots of feel.Good moments.
Another amazing insta love story by Loni Ree where the drama is low and the love is high.
An ex-military grumpy guy with the curvy librarian in town what could go wrong? absolutely nothing. Quinn will bring Seth to his knees and make him realise that love was just waiting for him.
Loni Ree is a new author for me. This is my first book by her. It does not disappoint. I loved every minute of this book! I laughed my way through it!! Just a great read!!
I read this as it relates to the Silver Spoons series. Loved Seth and Quin but felt parts were a little rushed. Loved the banter between Seth and Rafe at the end though
