Savannah Kade

When you have a female investigative reporter posing as a Nanny (and she has no clue what to do with kids), add the hot Manny from another family thrown into the mix, and you get loads of shenanigans, laughter, and suspense going on. This is the kind of Suspense Romance I love to read because it’s not the overly blood-and-guts grisly kind. This was also my first book from this author, and I can’t wait to go search for more of her books.
I received a copy of this story to read and give my honest review.… (plus d'informations)

Our Song was my first Savannah Kade book, and certainly not the last one. I found this book as a free e-book in the Kindle store when I was in the mood for a romance book. I read the summary, and it was an interesting one. The premise of two single parents helping each other, building relationships, friendships and family is something that you don't see in this kind of books. It is a slow burner love as well as the pacing; I deduced a star because sometimes I wanted the characters to get together. The other reason that I lowered my rating is that Kesley wasn’t open with JD about her true story about her family.
I love the three childre, Daniel, Andie and Allie. In Greek we say from a crazy person and a child you learn about the truth. They were sweet.
It is the second book that I am amazed with the male main character that is a gentleman, his mama taught him how to behave and how to treat man.
This is the second book I find to be surprised that the male character is a dream man, is someone that is very hard to find in real life.
The group, The Wilders are also very united, and this book for me teaches when you have good friendships and good family relationships thing go the way that you want, everyone knows to give a hand during good time but especially during bad times.
I am for sure going to look for this book and the other books of this series in their physical form, and I will be reading Savanah Kade’s other books as well… (plus d'informations)

I really enjoyed this book - it was an easy read (finished it in one day) and it rang true for me, for what I know about survivors of domestic abuse and people living with PTSD. I don't know if that should be a trigger warning for people who are sensitive about that kind of stuff or not (consider this your warning if you'd like/need one), but I felt like as much as I try to be "woke" about those kinds of issues, I still learned some things, and it wasn't so explicit or or "bonk you over the head with it" that it overshadowed the actual plot or chemistry between the H and h. So in that respect, I feel like it handled a potentially explosive topic in a very sensitive and respectful manner.

I also appreciated that as much as the H had many of the attributes of an alpha male, he wasn't a "here, I'll swoop in and fix everything and don't you worry your pretty little head about it" to the h, either. He was a nice mix of both - kind of a reformed alpa, if you will. He admitted his flaws and was willing to work on them, or at least admit where they had gotten him to this point in his life, while at the same time helping the h and being strong for her. He seemed mature and ready for a lasting relationship. And at the same time, I felt like the h realized that she couldn't just run from one man to the next, either - that there were things that she needed to figure out about how she got in her original mess, to keep from making the same mistakes again.

So I felt like this was a "smart" romance, in a way - there were some tentative, kind of "three steps forward, two steps back" dancing to the way the H and h ultimately get together, but that's often the way it is in real life. And at no point was I frustrated with her actions or thinking, "Oh, no, baby! What is you doing?!" LOL!

Reading about them gave me "good feels" for their future together because they were both willing to do so much to get to the places in their respective lives where they could be available both to and for the other person.

This was just a story of two broken people meeting and figuring out that the other person was worth fixing their sh.... stuff... for, and just because they went about doing it in mature and healthy ways doesn't mean that the book/story, itself, was somehow short on drama. It still delivered! Just in a way you can feel good about, instead of kind of icky because characters you're invested in are ruining their lives or making bad decisions or are adhering to outdated stereotypes.

This is the first book by this author I've read, but based on this book, alone, I would not hesitate to read others by this author. Thank you to Book Sirens and the author for the free ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.… (plus d'informations)
