My review of True Love in Laguna by Lacey Wolfe
William Springs has come to Laguna for his cousin Amber's wedding and has no return date after losing his job when the company he was working for downsized. When he checks into the Mondrian Laguna Beach Hotel little does he know how much his life will change.
Harper Powell works at the Mondrian and is nursing her heart after dating a reality star named Bentley who dumps her on camera for the world to see. When she is asked out by William she is hesitant but agrees when she realizes how much fun they have.
As William and Harper get to know each other they begin to fall for each other but William is from the other coast and Harper is not keen on getting her heart broke again. It's also clear that someone is not willing to let Harper go and move on to someone new.
This was a great story on letting go of past hurts and allowing yourself to fall in love and realize what love truly is! I loved Harper and thought she was so much fun, yet understandably cautious. William was awesome and I loved how the two right away were able to open up with each other and have amazing conversations in which they shared their hopes and dreams.
I was expecting something to happen but what happened wasn't what I thought it was going to be!! I loved that I was surprised!
I'm looking forward to more from these characters!

My review of Lost in Laguna by K.N. Lee
Isla Maxwell is a rich girl from Laguna who wants to live her life away from her controlling parents. In high school she fell in love with Garrett Thorne, a boy from the wrong side of the tracks who became a soldier and went missing in battle. Desperate to escape she falls for Clarke Mitchell another soldier who claimed he would not go back to active duty but when he does Isla leaves him and returns to Laguna.
Garrett Thorne wanted to make somehting of himself and stop being known as the convicts son when he enlists and is deployed to Afghanistan. After being injured and missing he learns that the love of his life has moved on.
When Garrett and Isla see each other will their love return? When Clarke decides he is not ready to let Isla go will she make a decision with the men in her life? Will the secrets that Garrett and Isla kept from each other make them stronger or push them apart?
This was a beautiful story on having a second chance when you thought the love was completely gone. I loved the free spirit of Isla and her independence that forced her away from her parents with their attitude towards Garrett. That being said I absolutely loved the support that Garrett received from Senator James Kinley.
Garrett went through so much and deserved so much happiness, yet he was reluctant to view himself as a hero and be recognized for it which showed something of his character. He is a very proud man and I hope he achieves his dreams.

My review of Last Night in Laguna by C.M. Albert
Bexley Rue is moving to New York and is spending her last night with her best friends Madison and Annie and their spouses. When Kai Donovan comes along with them, Bexley knows she may allow herself one night of fun as she is instantly attracted to him.
Kai Donovan is the opposite of Bexley. Where Bexley is a gypsy at heart, Kai seeks to settle down in one place. Yet despite their differences Kai knows he wants more than just one night with Bexley and as the night goes on, he realizes just how much he has instantly fallen for her.
But Bexley needs to go to New York to be with her sister, Vaughn, and it is unknown if their love survive the different coasts. But when Vaughn opens up about their childhood will Bexley let Kai in and allow them to have a future together?
This was a great book and the power of love between siblings and that instant attraction of finding the one you love. I had a lot of respect for Bexley and everything she was doing with Vaughn and was sad that she didn't find out things about her childhood until it was almost too late for her. She was such a good person but very scared of getting attached and settling down. She really didn't want any more loss in her life and I can't blame her.
Kai was amazing and I felt bad for him, especially in New York. The amount of stuff he was willing to do for Bexley was incredible and she's super lucky to have had him.
I'm glad that Bexley was able to discover what her heart wanted and needed and was able to do the right thing!

My review of Seeking Love by J.M. Maurer
Jessica Winters was married to Jake when she finds out that he had an affair. She swore that she would never let anyone get close to her again so she never again had to go through that heartbreak again.
Matthew Moi requested Jessica to be Megan's nurse and Jessica thinks nothing of it and enjoys a golf date with him when she mistakenly overhears something. Thinking the worst Jessica leaves for Nashville to see her father.
When Jake turns up and asks Jessica to hear him out she must decide who she cares for and if she is willing to let Jake back in. When Jessica decides who she wants will another misinterpretation cause her to lose the one she wants?
This was a great book about moving on and getting closure. Jessica really had no trust in men after what happened with Jake and was very hesitant on letting Matthew in to only misinterpret his words which sent her off running. Yet we also learn that she did the same thing with Jake and learn what really happened with Jake and his other woman.
At the end of the book I was like "oh crap" and I can't wait to see where the next book starts up and how Jessica is dealing with someone else not hearing the whole story!
