We are excited to share with you all Reading Romances Happy Endings Hop!!
I'd love to share one of my favorite series with you but there are too many books in the series so I'm going to share two of my absolute faves from Robyn Carr's Virgin River series. These contemporary romances are guaranteed to grab you by the heartstrings and make you swoon!!
by
Robyn Carr
SOMETIMES LOVE TAKES ROOT IN UNEXPECTED PLACES—IF YOU’LL ONLY LET IT GROW
Colin Riordan came to Virgin River to recuperate from a horrific helicopter crash, the scars of which he bears inside and out. His family is wonderfully supportive, but it’s his art than truly soothes his troubled soul.
Stung personally and professionally by an ill-advised affair, PR guru Jillian Matlock arrived in town via golden parachute. She’s bought an old Victorian with a promising garden and is looking forward to cultivating something other than a corporate brand.
When Jillian finds Colin at his easel in her yard, there’s an instant connection. But both are holding romance at arm’s length— looking to simplify, not complicate, their lives. And Jill may yet be lured back to Silicon Valley...
No one arrives in Virgin River without a story, and no one leaves—if they ever do—unchanged.
Oh I get chills just remembering Colin and Jillian's story!!
by
Robyn Carr
THE RECIPE FOR HAPPINESS:
MAKING IT UP AS YOU GO ALONG
Rising sous-chef Kelly Matlock’s sudden collapse at work is a wake-up call. Disillusioned and burned out, she’s retreated to her sister Jillian’s house in Virgin River to rest and reevaluate.
Puttering in Jill’s garden and cooking with her heirloom vegetables is wonderful, but Virgin River is a far cry from San Francisco. Kelly’s starting to feel a little too unmotivated...until she meets Lief Holbrook. The handsome widower looks more like a lumberjack than a sophisticated screenwriter—a combination Kelly finds irresistible. But less appealing is Lief’s rebellious stepdaughter, Courtney. She’s the reason they moved from L.A., but Courtney’s finding plenty of trouble even in Virgin River.
Kelly’s never fallen for a guy with such serious baggage, but some things are worth fighting for. Besides, a bratty teenager can’t be any worse than a histrionic chef...right?
This one will not only make you hungry but may produce a tear or two!

If I'm reading a romance book if has to end with HEA or I won't buy it. I also won't read cliff hangers either. I like closure.

I'm a sucker for a good HEA. I'm gonna have to say my favs are any of the old Julie Garwoods. Those are what got me reading romance in the first place.
Love a good HEA especially in Romance novels~
Austen films are great too!

I’m living my HEA. I’ve been married to the same wonderful man for 22 ½ years.
I’m a sucker for the H E A which is why I like the romance books. I especially like the paranormal or futuristic romance books with hot sexy alpha heroes and kick-ass heroines. They can be futuristic, or go back in time, or be contemporary or even on another planet as long as they get me hooked from the very first few chapters. My favorite HEA book is “Go Fetch” by Shelly Laurenston.
Thanks for the chance to win. <^_^> reneebennett35 (at) yahoo (dot) com
my favorite HEA is Brianna by Judy Mays and I loved Pack Challenge by Shelly Laurenston. I like my books to be either HEA's or HFN books other have a tendency to be wallbanger. lol.

I see you picked the sister's story, they were good and I'm a big fan of Robyn's. One of my favorites of hers that popped into my head was her first VR Christmas story. A Virgin River Christmas. Ian and Marcie's story. To this day I can still picture and hear his voice singing Christmas Carols at the end, I so cried my eyes out.

I really loved Beautiful Disaster
I don't have a Happily Ever After yet, but my daughter does. My daughter is 21yrs old that has a 1yr old boy. My daughter dropped out of high school and had gotten married. Her marriage ended and she was divorced and pregnant. When my grandson was about 3 months or so she met the sweetest guy ever! He and his family has excepted my grandson as there own. Her boyfriend takes care of her and the baby financially and as the baby's father. The boyfriend has a great job and makes great money, he does have a BA degree. My daughter received her GED a few months ago and now she has started college just a few days ago. I am so proud of my daughter and couldn't ask for more. She is living her very Happily Ever After.
Thank you for being a part of this fun and awesome blog hop!!
