Inspired by You
I have been a fan of this series since the beginning. Each book has had a very different feel to it but they all have one thing in common, they suck you in.
Inspired by You had a pretty fast pace and felt like a quick read. The characters were likable and I enjoyed the banter. I especially liked the kid. Give me a sexy, protective, possessive man and a single mom and I am a complete goner. But, I have to say, as much as I liked the characters in this book, I didn't connect with them the way I have in the previous stories. Parts felt rushed and there were times when I felt like things were missing. None of that changes how I feel about this author and this series. They have all been great reads that I look forward to.
This was a sweet read with tons of swoon and romance. I enjoyed seeing some of the characters from earlier in the series and I am excited about what (I hope) is to come.
