Review ~ I Need You Tonight (Pushing Limits, #3) by Stina Lindenblatt

I Need You Tonight (Pushing Limits, #3)
eARC received via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

Release Date: July 11th 2017

Publisher: Loveswept

Description:
Old habits die hard. But in this sexy, heartwarming romance, a musician who’s addicted to the temptations of the road falls for a good girl who makes him want to clean up his act.

Mason Dell’s band, Pushing Limits, is a sensation, and he’s having a blast on their biggest tour yet. Then he gets a call from his best friend, who’s in the Navy, asking him to find out why his sister isn’t answering her phone. The dude once saved Mason’s life from a suicide attempt related to a gambling problem—so the two-and-a-half hour drive from L.A. to her small town is nothing.

What he finds is a sweet, successful boutique owner who’s too busy to notice when her phone dies. Nicole McCormick has nothing better to do than work. She’s bored of all the men she’s been dating: stable, career-oriented guys who are nothing like her destructive father. Mason’s is a breath of fresh bad-boy air. Their sexual connection is explosive, and with her shop undergoing renovations, Nicole even joins Pushing Limits on the road. But when Mason falls off the wagon, that’s one path she swore she’d never go down again.

While Nicole picks up her broken heart and heads home, Mason misses her like crazy. Although he wants to forge a future with her, he just doesn’t know how to leave the past behind. But for love, it’s time to learn.

My Opinion

Having received an ARC of book 2 in this series last year and loving it, I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book. Although Jared and Callie still remain my favourite, this book didn't disappoint and I sped trough it faster than I expected and wanted. 

Mason and Nicole were interesting characters. I liked how they met and fell for each other. It was sweet and showed the good guy side to Mason. I thought the two of them worked well together to create an engaging romance where I rooted for them entire way through. 

In general I liked the way the plot panned out. If I'm honest I wasn't a fan of the ending before the epilogue. A couple of things were rushed to be tied up and I wasn't keen on a few of the characters' choices. However, for the mostpart it was an enjoyable read. 


Overall, although I still loved book 2 more, this one definitely lived up to the author's style and held my attention. It was a sweet and easy romance.

Review ~ My Song for You (Pushing Limits, #2) by Stina Lindenblatt

My Song for You (Pushing Limits, #2)
eARC received via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

Release Date: September 6th 2016

Publisher: Loveswept Random House

Description:
At twenty-one, Jared Leigh had been prepared to give up the life of a touring musician to be a father after getting his girlfriend pregnant. When she told him that she’d gotten an abortion, Jared was devastated. Now at least he has the groupies to keep him company—until a blast from the past rocks his world.

Callie Talbert hasn’t seen her sister’s ex since high school. But after Callie bumps into Jared while she’s grocery shopping with four-year-old Logan, there’s a spark that wasn’t there before. Jared quickly realizes that her deaf “son” is the same age his own child would have been. When Jared demands to know more about Logan, Callie panics. There are things she just can’t tell him. Besides, Jared’s a bad-boy rocker, not a dependable father figure. He’ll move on to his next gig soon enough . . . right?

Trouble is, Jared refuses to be pushed away, and the more quality time he spends with Logan, the more he’s captivated by the woman Callie has become. When the truth is revealed, Jared only hopes that the three of them have what it takes to become a real family.

My Opinion

My Song For You was a sweet, endearing read. I've been dying to read this for months. It's been sat on my Kindle and every time I open the app I want to start reading. However, when I was accepted for an ARC the release date was so far out I forced myself to waiting.

In the end, I found myself really enjoying this book. I didn't expect to read it in one sitting, but thanks to the rainy British weather, it gave me an excuse to do nothing all day and just lose myself in Jared and Callie's world.

Like I said, this was a cute and heartwarming read. I loved the relationship Jared had with Logan, and I felt for Callie due to the hand she'd been dealt in life. I also respected her for stepping up where it mattered. I won't say too much as you need to read this book to experience the emotions properly, but in general it's a feel-good read with an engaging plot and some uniqueness--like Logan's deafness.


Overall, I will definitely be reading more by this author. I would have liked to know what the label did about the band's final stunt, but other than that it was a well-rounded, well written, engaging book.
