Ratings and reviews

What a fantastic return to Marietta! Yates has created a romance that will spark your interest while sparking some definite heat between the characters. The premise behind the story was both tear jerking and absolutely comical. Yates has created an unforgettable cast of characters that I loved getting to know. Luke & Melanie were a fantastic couple to get to know. They were fantastic individually, but together they were off the charts. Their combined & separate histories crashes in to their present adventures in such a manner that you get a full picture of who they are. This is one of those stories that I really and truly enjoyed, but would have absolutely loved if it had been a full length novel, giving the characters a bit more time to develop. Yates has created a story that’s both sweet & sassy. She held my attention throughout and I can’t wait to read more by this fantastic author. I also wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Marietta does have a thing about brides...and weddings. This is Mel and Luke's story. Two best friends. Now you tonight know Mel, she is that amazing cake decorator from several Montana Born books. In fact after this book I was craving drake or at the least creaming butter cream icing. So we get to know more about Luke & Mel right off the bat when Luke runs into sexed up Mel at Grey"s and carries her out. Oh yeah friends? Do friends get jealous when other guys hit on their best friends? This is a well written read that lets us catch up with some of our favorite characters from Marietta as well as get cozy with this couple. I would like to say that author Maisey Yates touched on a topic in this book near and dear to me. One I struggle with daily myself as well as both my girls. She showed it with accuracy and compassion. Thanks.

A quick and funny read about change and the surprises of falling in love. Luke is frustrated. Blindsided at every turn, he wants things to stay the same. Melanie striving to become more independent has made the biggest change of all. A makeover. Luke and Melanie have tiptoeing around an attraction for years. Will they finally make the biggest change and become more than friends? Received a copy of Finally his Bride for an honest review.
