Others: PositiveAfter eighteen years, I’ve come home to the Scottish island of my childhood. It’s the place I vowed I wouldn’t return to so I never again had to see the man who broke my heart into a million pieces. Yet family has inevitably brought me back, and avoiding my ex, Quinn McQuarrie, is proving impossible when he insists on digging up the past every time we meet. Quinn is now a single dad, the local contractor, and the person the entire town is rooting for to get his happily ever after. The problem is, he wants me to be his HEA, and I just want to move on. When Quinn sees my plans to save the town’s volunteer lifeboat service as an opportunity to work together, I’m stuck with him. And, unfortunately, I soon realize there’s no denying that the chemistry we share has only grown more intense with the passing of time. I know Quinn wants more than just a physical relationship, but it’s all I can promise with so much hurt and distrust between us. However, when strange disturbances escalate to harassment, our lives are turned upside down, and Quinn proves he will do anything in his power to protect me. Even if it means losing each other before we ever get our second chance…

Others: PositiveNothing more. When I met British billionaire Kabir Spencer at Splice London, he promised me an unforgettable night and nothing more. One night turned into a string of encounters, each one hotter than the next. As our dynamic evolved, Spence helped me explore a side of myself I didn’t know existed until the moment I uttered the words Yes, Sir. Then my secrets and my sorrow became too much to bear, and I well and truly broke. During my lowest of lows, Spence cared for me in all the ways I needed. Now, he’s come to my rescue once again, though he dropped a bomb of a secret when he arrived. I have a lot of explaining to do to my current boyfriend and my ex-boyfriend-slash-stepbrother, but I’ll have plenty of time to get to it while we’re trapped together in the mountains for the holidays. As if that isn’t enough, my narcissistic mother is back in town, and she and my stepfather will be joining us, too. Nothing more didn’t last. Nothing I love ever stays. It’s for the best. It’s only a matter of time before the possessiveness and sizzling tension between the three men in my life reach a boiling point and start to feel too real. So Real is the second book in the Boys of South Chapel series. It is a steamy second chance why choose romance that must be read in order. A full list of tropes and triggers can be found on the author’s website.

MixedAnd that is my only gripe with this book is that they never actually talked about it or like she didn't gravel over the fact that she I think most likely cheated on her spouse. So this one is again between a divorced couple and I really enjoyed it.
