Worth the Fall is definitely all about the small moments. Matt is a real hero and I adore him so much. Big, strong military men with babies is my weakness. 😅

Good morning and thanks for sharing another wonderful video 😊

Thank you!

Yeah... His Tesoro went way off the rails. Which was so disappointing. There was a way to do that 3rd act that still shows how strong she is. But it had SUCH beautiful representation. I'm still gonna recommend it. Even though it was a bummer.

Yes, I still loved it and can't wait to read more from this author.

I’ve been in such a slump for the last month! I started and stopped multiple books because I couldn’t get into them.😅 Everything seemed dull, I ended up going back and re-reading some favorites.😂 I have His Tesoro on my Kindle, but I haven’t started it yet.

Book slumps are the worst! But I've just read a couple of books that have had me excited again. His Tesoro is worth the read for sure. Just be prepared for the ending.

Thank you Helen🩷🌷I will be looking forward to your mystery read vlog. I’ve been a mystery reader since high school which was a long time ago😂😅😳It was just last year I started reading romance. Recently I got into Jane Harper. I read The Lost Man. It was a good book but some serious triggers I wasn’t prepared for but it is a good book. I just finished The Dry. It has a few triggers in there but it is a good book. Thank you for The Best Man rec. I really did enjoy it. Marcus is an interesting character but this guy is kind of disturbing. All he had to do was take Jessa downstairs while Joey was having sex with the stripper. But there would be no book. I think it was a combination of building anger towards Joey not treating Jessa well and Marcus falling in love with Jessa. It seemed he wanted to crush Joey and win over Jessa in one fell swoop. But his plan was a mess. I thought some of what was going on with Jessa was Stockhol syndrome. I do think though she ended up loving Marcus for real. What Marcus did isn’t how you win friends and influence people😳😂Then he traumatized his brothers when they realized what they’d done. The next day Joey still wanted to marry Jessa and by Thanksgiving he was still angry with Marcus. It really was a book about what not to do if you fall in love with your brother’s fiancé . That being said I did enjoy it and want to read more Sam Mariano. I started a trilogy by Skye Warren about a student and her professor at Tanglewood University. It felt like I fell into the rabbit hole with that book. Somehow it sucked me in so completely I forgot to eat. I never saw this coming. I was just hoping for spicy forbidden naughty romps in classrooms and library cubicles. The several episodes of spice are pretty hot but spice doesn’t dominate this book and the professor/student thing isn’t routine. The second in the trilogy, The Student, won’t be out until out the 24 of this month. Of everything I’ve read this year The Professor is hands down the biggest surprise out of left field. Hope the other two books are just as unique.

Hello. Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I don't read a lot of sad emotional romances as I lean towards Dark and Mafia so it might take me a while to put together enough books for this one. But I'll definitely add it to my video ideas list and see what I can do!
