Letters To Molly by @Devney Perry now LIVE!


Letters To Molly by Devney Perry

AVAILABLE NOW! 





Molly Alcott didn’t expect to open her mailbox one summer morning and find an old letter stuffed between bills and a supermarket flyer. Penned in familiar handwriting, dated over fifteen years ago, the letter was written to Molly after her first date with the man she’ll never forget.


Week after week, new letters appear. Each marks an event in the history of their epic love affair. Each heals a wound. Each holds the confession of the man who still owns Molly’s heart.

The letters are full of promise, hope and love, but truth be told, Molly wishes she could unread them all.

Because the man who wrote these letters is not the one sending them.

My love for Finn wasn’t going to stop. I could tell myself and others I wasn’t in love with Finn. It was all lies. I’d buried that love deep, shoving it down whenever it threatened to appear, but it was still there. It had always been there.

Letters to Molly is the second book in Devney Perry's Maysen Jar series. I was equal parts nervous and excited to read this. This book is about a divorced couple and I was anxious to see how it would work out and how it would make me feel. I shouldn't have been, I ended up loving it even more than the first!

Molly and Finn meet through Finn's sister and Molly's BFF Poppy. They hit it off right away and end up dating and falling in love. That leads to marriage, two kids, and a pretty great life. Their marriage isn't perfect, no ones is, but when Poppy's husband is killed things start to fall apart. Even though Molly did something some would consider the deal breaker for the marriage, I honestly felt like it was equally both of them. No matter who was at fault, they've been divorced for years and it's obvious after all those years, they're both still very much in love with one another.

Molly never thinks much of it. She's not moved on, she'll always love Finn but she knows she'll never have him again. Then, one day, a letter shows up in her mailbox. One written by Finn to her many years ago. Finn wrote the letter, but he wasn't the one who sent it to her. Both Finn and Molly try to figure out who is sending the letters, but it's to no avail. While all this is going on, they begin sleeping together again. It's just sex, until it's not. Let me tell you, things are about to get really complicated.

I loved Molly and Finn. I loved them both as parents and people. Reading their past made my heart hurt for their relationship together and the way things went and how they treated each other. I was never more happy to have a couple find a second chance at love. It's very rare that a couple that went through all that can come out the other side and make it work. But no one is more deserving of this second chance love story than Molly. I adored her. She's an amazing woman and was my favorite character in the book.

This wasn't an easy book to read. At times, it was difficult. It was emotional and heartwrenching, but also beautiful and heartwarming. This book will give you so many feels and comes highly recommended!!

Review Blast: TINSEL by Devney Perry



Sofia Kendrick has always cherished her tiara. As the youngest daughter of a wealthy New York family, she’s lived the life of an American princess. But after two scandalous divorces and a breakup smear her name across the society rags, the shine from her crown has dulled. People call her superficial, even gaudy.

She’s nothing more than tinsel.

Desperate for escape and starving for peace, Sofia heads to Montana for a holiday weekend with her brother. But she doesn’t get the relaxing vacation she planned. Instead, she’s put to work in a bar alongside Dakota Magee—a man who does not want her help. A man who is set on teaching her a few lessons about real life and hard work. But Sofia has a couple of life lessons of her own to teach. Like how to fall in love.

I love these Lark Cove books! I seriously can’t pick a favorite, they’re all so good. Sophia and Dakota’s story was just as amazing as I expected it to be. I love that these books make me feel! Emotionally charged romances are my absolute favorites.

Sophia Kendrick is one of those characters I wasn’t sure if I was going to love… in the first book she rubbed me the wrong way a bit. But there was so much more to her than what meets the eye. When she comes to Montana to visit her brother, she doesn’t expect to be put to work at Thea’s bar, but she does it. She needs a purpose and until she figures that out, working is as good of thing as anything.

Dakota is just as concerned when Sophia comes to the bar. This girl that hasn’t worked a day in her life just waltzes in to the bar he runs… but he’s actually impressed by her work ethic and determination. The two start to bond and are insanely attracted to one another. It turns into a no-strings sex, but of course, feelings start to grow there.
 
She was a woman who had everything in the world at her fingertips and yet seemed so . . . miserable and lonely. She seemed so lost. I didn’t pity her. But I was intrigued. I ached to get closer and solve her riddle. I ached for her.



My favorite part of this book was watching Sophia grow and watching Dakota encourage her to do more. She really found herself and her passion and he gave her the encouragement and freedom to do that. Things were easy for her in a lot of ways, but her life wasn’t easy in some ways, too.
 
   
I wanted her to leave here tonight feeling like she’d made a difference. That I couldn’t have done it without her help. I wanted her to feel like she mattered, at least for one night.

 


Dakota didn’t have it easy, either. He had a lot of familial issues to deal with and it took him some time to figure things out, but he did. I loved the two of them together.

I will miss this group of characters so much. This book series is special. I love the emotions, the family/friendship bonds, and the sweet and swoony love stories. Tinsel was an amazing way to end this series!!
 
   
Be bold. Find your magic. Chase the impossible.

Review: Tragic by Devney Perry



Kaine Reynolds wants nothing more than solitude. After an unthinkable tragedy destroys his family, he’s cut off all ties to his former life so he can battle his grief the only way he knows how.W

Alone.

So when Piper Campbell knocks on his door, rambling on about being his new neighbor, he slams the door in her face.

But Kaine’s gruff demeanor doesn’t scare her. She’s set on living in Montana and starting over after a terrible divorce. And she wouldn’t mind having a fling to chase away the pain of her husband’s betrayal. Her handsome, albeit rude, neighbor is the perfect candidate.

Yet what neither of them suspect is that their no-strings affair will result in the surprise of Piper’s lifetime—and Kaine’s worst fear.

Devney Perry's Lark Cove series just gets better and better with each book. Tragic is a fantastic read that hit me right in the feels. I loved it.

Piper Campbell is a recently divorced New-Yorker moving to Montana for a fresh start. She loves her job and finds a great place to live that just needs a little work. The only thing wrong with the place... the neighbor. Kaine is grouchy, but  Piper can tell there is so much more to him than that. Kaine has pain. The kind that is deep. Even as these two become 'friends', it's something he never opens up about.

Kaine's story broke my heart. It truly did. I can't imagine going through something like he went through. I loved that he found Piper. Someone he could be himself with. Someone who made him want to try again, want to be more. My favorite part of this story was watching him start to open up and start to heal.
“I don’t want to be reminded of you in pain.”
“And I want you to always remember that you saved me.”

Piper was one of those characters you couldn't help but to love. I adored her. She was understanding, compassionate, and strong. Kaine was a broken man who never knew he could find the right person to put him back together. I love that these two were healing for one another. They were each the missing pieces to each others hearts.

This book had an interesting plot, the writing was wonderful, and it gave me all the feels I need in a book. I love emotional stories, and this was heavy without being too much. It made me cry, but also gave me hope and by the end I had a big smile on my face. Kaine and Piper's book was great. I'm looking forward to reading more in this series!

BLOG TOUR: Timid by Devney Perry



Willa Doon has always been shy. Her quiet demeanor was something she’s always embraced. That is, until Jackson Page moves to town. The one man she desperately wants to take notice struggles to remember her name.

Year after year, Willa stands by, watching as the bartender slash playboy drowns his demons in beer and sex. Then one night, he shows up at her door, suddenly aware that the girl he’s seen around Lark Cove is now a beautiful woman.

Except what he doesn’t remember is that this visit isn’t his first. They spent a night together once before. A night he’s forgotten, thanks to a bottle of tequila.

A night that crushed a timid girl’s heart, and set a broken man on the path to heal them both.



EXCERPT:

I scooched my chair in toward the table, trying to put a little more space between Jackson and me, but he wasn’t having it.

He put both hands on the back of my chair, then leaned in close. “Hi, Willa.”

“Uh . . . hi.” I shivered at the heat from his chest on my bare shoulders.

Why was he standing so close? My parents were right there. Our table was one of four tall, square ones in the center of the room and there was plenty of space between tables.

Plenty. P-L-E-N-T-Y.

But was Jackson using any of that plentiful space?

No sirree. He stayed pressed against the back of my chair, like there were only three inches of usable space behind him, not three feet.

My skin prickled he was so close. I tried to nudge my chair forward again but it barely moved. Sweat beaded on my temples and I pulled in a shaking breath.

Jackson’s woodsy, rich scent was everywhere. It overpowered the stale beer, pizza and peanuts, and I inhaled a deep breath, unable to resist.

Sexy Hot Forest. That’s what they’d call his cologne.

CHRISTY'S REVIEW:

4.5 stars!

I’ve read several books by Devney Perry, and I have to say- Timid is my favorite book of hers by far. I loved Willa and Jackson’s story so much!

Unrequited love. Willa Doon has been in love with Jackson Page from the moment she first met him. He basically didn’t know she existed. In fact, he called her the wrong name for years. Willa is a bit on the shy side, but she is a wonderful person. She runs a youth camp and is involved in Lark Cove. One night, Jackson see’s a different side of Willa. The problem- he doesn’t remember. Willa is crushed and decides to move on, as she should have years ago.

It’s in that moment Willa finds the strength to move forward that Jackson truly sees her. He wants to get to know her and spend time with her. But Willa isn’t so sure anymore. Jackson actually has to work for it to get time with her, and I loved that. She deserved to be pursued and wanted. Jackson has had a hard life. He came to Lark Cove to be with the only ‘family’ he really had. He doesn’t get too close to anyone. It’s just the way he is. Willa is determined to break those barriers down.

I love a man who has some issues and is a bit damaged. Jackson fits that bill perfectly. His back story broke my heart and I can completely understand why he was the way he was. I loved him. What I truly loved about this book was seeing Willa come into her own. She went from being this shy and timid girl to being someone who stood up for herself and fought for the things she wanted. She got Jackson to jump through those hurdles and move past some of his trust issues.
 
“I think what’s important is finding a person who makes you better. And someone you can trust with your heart. And, Jackson? I trust you with mine.”

Jackson and Willa’s love story was beautiful. Denvey Perry did a fantastic job with this story. I loved both of the main characters, it brought the feels, and kept me completely invested. I can’t wait to read more from this series!

She was my courageous champion. My warrior. My lover. My friend. My everything.

Review: Tattered by Devney Perry



Thea Landry has always known her place in modern-day society. It’s somewhere just above the trash can her mother dumped her in as a newborn but below the class where much comes easy. With her tattered shoes and bargain-bin clothes, her life has never been full of glamour.

So when a rich and charismatic man takes interest, she doesn’t fool herself into thinking their encounter is anything more than a one-night stand. Months later, she’s kicking herself for not getting his phone number. Or his last name. She’s given up hope of seeing him ever again.

Until one day, years later, Logan Kendrick waltzes into her life once more and turns everything she’s built upside down. This time around, she won’t make the same mistake. She’s going to fight to keep him in her life—not for herself.

But for their daughter.

CHRISTY'S REVIEW:

Tattered by Devney Perry is an adorably sweet, swoony romance with just a touch of suspense.

When Thea and Logan meet one night in a bar in NYC, it's a one night thing. The attraction is instant and they know what they want out of that one night. What they don't expect is a child to come from that one night. When Thea finds herself pregnant by Logan- no last name- she has no way of finding him. Eventually she moves to Montana to be with the only people she calls family. Years later, her daughter Charlie is 5, and Logan is the last person she ever expects to see again.

Once again, Logan walks into Thea's bar, but this time it's in Montana. And he finds out he is the father to a daughter he's never known about. A good chunk of the book is Logan navigating parenthood. My favorite parts of the book were seeing Logan and Charlie together. It was so freaking sweet. I also loved watching that spark between Logan and Thea reignite. You could just see that they were meant to be, even though their circumstance weren't ideal, as they lived in different states.

So why not a 5- honestly, I didn't love the bit of suspense thrown in there. The story as beautiful and emotional, and great the way it was, I didn't feel like it was necessary to have that put in. Overall, I very much enjoyed this book. Charlie was the cutest, Logan was amazing, and Thea was strong and brave. It was a great read and I'm looking forward to reading more by this author.

CHRISTY'S REVIEW:

4.25 stars!

“description"/

The Birthday List is an emotional, moving, and romantic stand-alone novel. I was drawn in to Poppy's story straight away and I loved it from start to finish!

Poppy Maysen has been alive the last five years, but she hasn't been living. Not really. She's still grieving the loss of her husband, Jaime, who died suddenly and tragically five years ago. Things have been hard for her, but she's trying to move forward. Things are starting to change for Poppy now that she's going through Jamie's Birthday List.

Jamie was a fun-loving guy and a free spirit. He had this amazing idea to make a Birthday List. For each Birthday, he had something big he wanted to do. Unfortunately, he never got to check these things off the list. Poppy is determined to honor Jamie's memory and work on doing those things for her. She's hoping that maybe, just maybe, she can learn to heal a little and move on with her life.

“I wanted to do this for Jamie and let it go. Every day, I was getting stronger. I was getting back on my feet. I was starting to live again – for me. And until the list was done, I’d still be living for Jamie.”
Cole Goodman is the police detective who had the difficult job of notifying Poppy of Jamie's death. Though it's been years, he's never forgotten her. Cole and Poppy run into each other while Poppy is doing something from the list. For some reason, Poppy feels compelled to tell Cole about the list and he decides he wants to help. It's apparent these two have a strong connection and I couldn't wait to see what would come of this.

Cole is such a fantastic, stand-up guy. He has a huge heart and is always patient with Poppy. He gets what she's been through and is willing to wait as long as it takes for her to be ready for him. He also never wanted to replace Jamie or his memory and I appreciated that. Poppy showed how much strength she had by doing the list. I admired that about her. The two of them had loads of chemistry and I adored them together.

This story is one that touched me. It was inspiring and sweet, but had just a bit of suspense to keep me on my toes. It's a story of growth, healing and beauty. It was an all around great read. Definitely my favorite from this author to date. And can we talk about that cover because OMG it's beautiful! I loved the concept of the story and it's one I would recommend.

“description"/

EXCERPT: 

Turning to the door, I smiled, ready to greet my late-evening customer, but faltered as the door closed behind him.
Cole Goodman was walking my way.
My belly dipped as I took him in. His aviator sunglasses were perched on top of his chocolate-brown hair. A black polo stretched across his broad shoulders and pulled tight across his muscled arms. His pale-blue jeans molded to his Herculean thighs before draping down to his black, square-toed boots. The leather belt on Cole’s trim waist held both a shining badge and a holstered gun.
Cole smiled and locked his light-green eyes on mine as he crossed the room.
His straight, white teeth made my breath hitch—something that had happened last night more times than I wanted to admit.
Molly, who had turned around from her seat to greet our customer, spun around so her back was to Cole. Her cheeks flushed as she whispered, “Wow.”
Wow was right.
Cole Goodman was—simply put—gorgeous.
He could give a woman a speeding ticket and get a thank-you in return. He inspired women to attempt push-ups in a karate class just for the chance to watch him sweat through his gi. Cole made grown women blush like teenagers and giggle in corners, like those girls at the dojo last night.
