Goodreads Synopsis:

Sapphire Falls, book seven

Bryan Murray always knew that he wanted to come home to Sapphire Falls and settle down with Tessa Sheridan. After all, Tessa's sweet and kind and beautiful and planning to live in Sapphire Falls forever. Best of all, she's loved him since kindergarten. She's the perfect forever girl for him. He just didn't expect it to all happen quite like this. But a not-so-little tumble down a mountain while biking has turned his life upside down and landed him back at home.

A longtime coach to high level athletes, Bryan knows all about facing obstacles head-on and turning challenges into opportunities. So, things aren't going exactly the way he planned them-- at least Tessa is the same girl who's just been waiting for him to come home.

Tessa has been saving herself for Bryan in every way. She's even been saving her pennies so she could move to Colorado to train with him for the marathon trophies she's got her heart set on--a new passion she's discovered all because of Bryan. But now he's messed everything up. Not only is he bartending instead of coaching, but he's decided to go from a hot, sexy playboy type to sweet romantic boyfriend material. And worst of all, he's doing it all in Sapphire Falls.

What's a girl gotta do to get away from her hometown and have an adventure or two? Now that marathon training and hot sex against the shower wall are out of the question with Bryan, Tess has to come up with a new plan to make her dreams, and fantasies, come true. All while being romanced by the only man who's ever had her heart.

The Cover:

I like all of the covers in this series, and this one included. This one's very bright, and I think the sunny brightness works for the activities in this book. It's very pretty, too, and would make me interested.

Review:

I really quite enjoy this series, and while I missed the previous one, I will be going back to pick it up soon.
These books are just very fast, fun novels to pick up. I always end up reading them way faster than I expect, and they’re always cute, sweet stories that I just eat up. I’m always wanting more.
Tessa has been in love with Bryan her whole life, but he never seemed interested. But now, she’s finally decided to do what she wants, to stop waiting for him and finally go do what she wants on her own. Only, now Bryan’s back home, and he’s decided that he’s ready for Tessa.
I did really like their relationship, and their chemistry was so good. They’re clearly a great fit, and they love each other. They just haven’t had a good time for each other until now. Tessa, understandably, though, has finally gotten the motivation and guts to go out and see and do what she has always wanted. It was nice seeing how Bryan fought for it, though, and how Tessa made him work.
This was a very fun book to read, as I expected. I will be picking up the previous one soon, and waiting for the next one.

Novel Review: Getting Out of Hand (Sapphire Falls, #1) by Erin Nicholas



Rating (Out of 5): ~4
Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance
Publisher: Self-Published
Release Date: July 2014
Spoilers?: No.
Buy it here: Amazon. Barnes and Noble.

Goodreads Synopsis:

Genius scientist Mason Riley can cure world hunger, impress the media and piss off the Vice President of the United States all before breakfast. But he’s not sure he can get through his high school class reunion.

Then he meets the new girl in town.

Adrianne Scott loves Sapphire Falls. The sleepy little town has been the perfect place to escape her fast-paced, high stress lifestyle. Her only plans now include opening her candy shop and living a quiet, drama-free life.

Until Mason Riley bids four hundred dollars just to dance with her.

Mason sure doesn’t look—or kiss—like a genius scientist geek. In fact, he makes Adrianne’s heart pound like nothing she’s ever experienced. Passion like this with a guy who travels the world and parties at the White House should probably be a red flag for a girl who wants a simple boring life.

Good thing no one falls in love in a weekend.

The Cover:

I think the cover is adorable, and I love the colors and the themes of it. I'm not sure if I think the models clothing works, but it could, and it's overall very cute so I don't mind too much. It gives the right feel for the book, and the series, I think.

Review:

This was free on Kindle, so I picked it up. I wasn’t expecting it to be so fantastic, or so fast, though.
Mason is invited back to his old hometown to sponsor a mall, but he doesn’t want anything to do with it. He was the geek back in high school, ignored and humiliated, and he left and never came back. But he’s pushed to go back to town, and then he meets Adrianne. And quickly falls for her.
Mason is a great guy, and Adrianne is a very sweet girl. Their attraction is instant and hot, and I loved it. I particularly loved how Mason would get a brilliant idea while making out and then Adrianne would let him write it out on her. I thought that was both adorable and quirky cute.
Adrianne wants to take things easy, but Mason’s best friend Lauren pushes her into getting over that, because she can help Mason in ways that Mason needs. And I thought that was awesome. I loved seeing her stand up for what she wanted.
This book was so fast, and I couldn’t put it down. I loved every bit of it. The town and people were fun and quirky, and the attraction was very hot and very sweet.
I loved this book, and I can’t wait to read more in the series.
