#WOTR25 #TwinsieForTheDayPolly – Beautiful March, The Cardwell Family Book #1 by Christy Pastore

A small-town, friends to lovers story is coming your way this spring.

Getting dumped sucks. Getting dumped by your boyfriend days before your best friend’s wedding? It doesn’t get much worse.
Did I mention that the guy who cut me loose was country music’s number one rising star?
And my client.
I thought I was walking into a proposal. Instead, I crashed right into humiliation—dumped and fired.

The silver lining? In a restaurant, there’s plenty of wine to drown my feelings.

In strolls Tyler Nichols, the restaurant owner. He’s charming, handsome and does a good job of trying to make me feel better. A really good job. Sharing my heartbreak with a beautiful stranger is the last thing that I expected.

Turns out, Tyler Nichols is my ex’s best friend. And according to the local gossips—mainly my cousin—he’s got a mysterious past.

No worries, I’m the gal with everything going for her—great job, fabulous apartment and a glamorous life half way across the country in sunny Los Angeles—far away from my hometown and my family’s bourbon empire. I’ll be leaving after the weekend wedding festivities.

That is until my best friend, Sage, finds herself in a jam and needs my help before jetting off on her honeymoon.

So, I’m staying in Mayfield a little longer than anticipated. In just a few short weeks, I’ll march my happy ass back to the West Coast, far away from Tyler’s smoldering gaze and his panty-melting smile. And the chemistry between us that burns hotter than a hickory stump.

But the longer I’m in town, the harder it is to stay away from him. And maybe I don’t want to.

Review by Polly

5 Splashes of Bourbon (oh I mean 5 Stars)
This contemporary friends to lovers story will have you wiping at your tears and jumping for joy before you even know what hit ya! Tyler and Haven’s story is beautifully written and filled with tons of emotions, with everything between heartbreaking to heartwarming. There were even a few times I wanted to toss my Kindle.
Tyler Nichols is a businessman and restaurant owner in the small town of Mayfield, Kentucky, while Haven Cardwell is a publicist in LA and the bourbon heiress from the same small town. I totally love the chemistry between these two! Love the slow burning start…..and then WHAM fireworks are going off like crazy!
Can these two make it a go? Maybe they can do the long distance thing? Will the gossip be too much to handle? Will the truth set them both free? Grab this book and find out for yourself!
A bonus for me while reading this book – Grady James makes an appearance! If you have read other books by Ms. Pastore you will know that she does toss a few other characters from previous books into her new stories. Grady is my favorite, but Tyler Nichols is giving him a run for his money!
This book will be marked as a favorite for 2019!

International Bestselling Author and self-proclaimed french fry addict, Christy Pastore writes sexy, contemporary romance books that contain no nonsense (mostly) heroines and swoony gentleman with a naughty side. Readers so overwhelmingly embraced one Wicked Gentleman, Jackson Hart specifically, turning many of her #AuthorGoals into a reality.

When Christy’s not turning her risqué thoughts into something worth reading, you’ll find her geeking out on all things pop culture, obsessively stalking Pinterest for home interior ideas, lunching with friends, or researching her next vacation destination.

She has strong opinions about folding laundry, fruity wines, the Oxford Comma, fashion, and mixed vegetables.

Christy lives in central Indiana with her husband and their three loveable cats, Cheeto, Dorito, and Brew. But as cute as they are, please send scratching posts asap because they’re slowly destroying the furniture.

#WOTR25 #twinsieforthedayPolly – Healed by You, The Harbour #2 by Christy Pastore

After giving the performance of a lifetime in my latest movie, I’m riding a high in my career.

Ready to celebrate, I come home only to find my wife giving a performance of her own—no amount of bleach will scrub this image from my brain.

My ex-wife is hellbent on making my life a living nightmare—slandering me in every tabloid and talk show from coast to coast. Her damaging lies could cost me everything I’ve worked so hard for.

Added to that, I find out that my friend, Harlow Trembley, has publicity troubles of her own. As a famous fashion model, she’s used to the gossips printing scathing lies. But the most recent lie involves the two of us.

As our worlds collide, I propose we turn the tables on the stalkerazi.

I ask her to be my fake girlfriend.

We know the game, and the stakes are high. As the summer goes on, our pretending turns to something more.

Can Harlow heal the parts of my soul that need it most—or will I end up pushing her away?

Review by Polly

Healed by You is the second book in the Harbor Series and can be read as a standalone, but trust me one this – you will want to grab Bound to Me (book 1) after reading this book!
Grady and Harlow are both dealing with ultimate betrayals from their significate others. After bumping into each other a few times, they realize that there is something “more” between them. The sparks start flying, the heat gets turned up a few notches, lust takes over and both of their minds are stuck in the proverbial “gutter” with all those dirty thoughts! They help each other heal – body, mind and soul.
What a fantastic book to end the year on! I have to say that Harlow and Grady are one of my favorite couples!
Three of my most favorite lines in the book are:
“Not a deviant. But if you leave the sexual innuendo door open even a fraction, I’ll come barreling through like the Kool Aid Man.”
“The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.”
“Good, because I want to hug your face with my thighs.”
