End Game Review Emily Goodwin

Quinn Dawson has been crushing on her brother Dean's best friend and college roommate since her family first met Archer on Purdue's move in day. Grant it, she was only 14 and he was 18. But her crush only intesified over the years due to Archer coming home with Dean during school breaks and after they graduated. Quinn runs into Archer at her company party. She finally realizes that he has feelings for her too. 

Archer has been hiding his feelings for Quinn for years. He felt ashamed that he was attracted to a 14 year old, although she wasn't dressed like one in that little black dress. But she's no longer 14 and he's far from being 18. Quinn is still Dean's baby sister--there must be some kind of bro-code against that. He did stop himself from kissing her at Christmas but now, he can't help himself. 

Quinn has been feeling exhausted and tired for days now. And the pressures of this new project doesn't help any either. Why can't she keep any food down. Oh, yeah because she got knocked-up by her childhood crush. Archer wants them to be together even though he didn't call her back after their night together. It hurt when he didn't call or text. It's not like they could really start something since he lives in Indy and she's in Chicago. But a girl can hope right? Quinn doesn't want Archer to be with her just because it's "the right thing to do." Her older brother Wes did that and look how that turned out--a single dad. 


How can Archer get Quinn to realize how deeply he feels for her? He has been in love with her for years. But Archer was offered a trauma surgeon fellowship--in Boston! Will he pick his dream job or his dream girl?

Just this Once by Mira Lyn Kelly

Sean Wyse has an image of his ideal wife--the right education, pedigree, and social standing. But when it comes to the women he dates for fun--the complete opposite. And they are all blonde with blue eyes much like his best friend, Molly Brandt. Sean needs to uphold the family reputation--lately, his mother has been pressuring him to find the ideal wife. Sean doesn't want a marriage like his parents. He recently discovered that his parents have never been faithful to each other--that explains his two half brothers by his father's mistresses. His parents only remain married for appearance sake. Sean wants to marry for love not as a business deal. 

Molly Brandt has been in love with Sean since she was 15 when her parents were killed and she had to move in with her older brother and his roommate (Sean).Sean did everything he could to get Molly out of her depressive funk and to smile. Molly has been secretively in love with Sean since then. She tries to hide it. She finally has a handle on it--she doesn't cry every time he seriously dates someone. Her heart no longer yearns for him. That's when her crush was only one-sided. Sean goes and changes things beginning with throwing her deadbeat roommate out and replacing him. Molly can take care of herself--she has three jobs and two businesses to run. She doesn't need Sean to rescue her. She can take care of herself. Molly asks Sean to move out. No way can her heart handle a near naked Sean in her apartment--she could barely handle it when she was a teen. Now, she could do something about it--only if Sean feels the same way. No way is she going to be just another notch on his bedpost. 

What happens when Sean feels the same way? He has always been protective of her much like her brother, Max. But unlike Max, he wants to savor every inch of her. He can't stop thinking about her. His mother and other people make Molly insecure about herself. Can he get through to her about how he feels about her?

A Thousand Letters Staci Hart




A Thousand Letters  is one of my re-read novels. I realized a week or so ago that I haven't left reviews for the novels that I actually bought! I felt that is a HUGE disservice to the authors. In between my ARC reviews I'm going back to re-read the novels that I've bought. I'm starting my my re-read list. Perhaps in another post I'll give my entire re-read listing. It is a bit long. But my all time favs!! I continue to go back to them over and over. 
Staci Hart is slowly becoming one of my favorite contemporary romance authors--I own two of her novels with two more in my wish list on Amazon. This novel sealed the deal for me. I will automatically add a Staci Hart novel after reading this novel. Ok, onto the actual review of this fabulous novel. Like I said this is one of my all time favs. 

Elliot has been in love with her best friend Sofie's older brother Wade since high school. They were high school sweethearts. Sofie and Wade's family was Elliot's salvation from her own self serving father and sisters. Elliot has always been a people pleaser and peacemaker--some might say a bit of a wallflower. She blends into the background and sacrifices for those that she loves. She had to make the hardest sacrifice her senior year of high school. Wade had enlisted in the Army. Their plan was that he would go to BASIC training and get situated in his first duty station and come back for her after her high school graduation. They would get married and run off into the military sunset together. 
Wade was scared. He thought that Elliot would forget him or worse that Wade would be killed while deployed in Iraq. He wanted to ensure that Elliot would always be taken care of. He asked Elliot to come with him--now instead of waiting until her graduation. Elliot's father and Wade made Elliot decide between her family and her heart. 

Seven years later, Wade has returned. His father had a stroke and was has cancer. He only has weeks to live. Wade comes home to take care of his younger siblings, Sofia and Sadie. Sadie is a senior in high school. Rick, Wade's father is Elliot's mentor. He encouraged Elliot to get her literature degree and to write. Only Elliot is a nanny for her older sister and doesn't publish any of her poetry. When Wade sees Elliot all of his buried feelings surface--anger, love, empathy--all he can think about is holding her again. His pride gets in the way. He's still hurt. Sofie and Sadie need him so he will need to find a way to be around Elliot. Even when Elliot reads his father poetry and soothes his younger sister. The more he's around her the more the ice is melting around his heart. The more he understands why she made the decision she did. 
But can Elliot finally get completely through to Wade or will he continue to hurt her? Will Elliot finally be able to stand up for herself or allow her family to railroad her?
