What People Are Saying

A selection of ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews from Amazon and GoodReads

“Lori gets her man!!! This is about Lori and Drew. Lori as we met her in Make Room for Love is a writer or advisor, but she is one to look for change and want to live a little. She is young but not too young, so she thinks this is her time to shine. Drew is Clay’s dad although he is not that old as he married very young and had three kids from his first marriage until his wife died in a car accident. He has two daughters at home and a teen, Nicole, and a little one around 6-7 years old, Molly. Molly does not talk but when she does, it is great! This is a heart-warming book where a teen learns to trust and a small child fills the hole in her heart! The only thing I desired from this book was an epilogue – what happened in a couple of years – was there a big wedding, more children, etc….”

*****

When You Came Along is the 7th book in the Seriously Sweet series. Lori takes on a job as a nanny as a way to make ends meet - she needs the income while she gets her new career as an advice columnist going and because her new boss will pay for her moving expenses. She expects her life to start as she has planned. But, as they say “the best laid plans” … because then she meets her new boss in person and there is instant attraction. She’s not looking for a ready made family and Drew isn’t looking for a new wife because he is still grieving the loss of his wife 2 years earlier. But God has his own plans for these two and it’s the perfect plan for them. I enjoyed this story so much, I read it in less than 24 hours.”

*****

“This book was so romantic and pure. The loss of a spouse and finding love again was a great read. The trauma of having a child not speak for years after the loss of her mother was so informative. I enjoyed this book from start to finish.”
