Liezel’s Thoughts:
I find it mind-boggling that I have more than half of Jillian Dodd’s books on my Kindle App for months yet “Vegas Love” is the first book of hers that have read so far. I have no idea why I overlooked her stories. If I had known just how terrific her writing was, I would have added them to my “go-to” list when needing something light and entertaining a long time ago.
“Vegas Love” is …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
Vera is an independent college student that takes an unforgettable backpacking trip to Europe during her summer break. Towards the end of her trip she heads to Madrid to commune with Spaniard business men and women to further enhance their conversational English. She was out to explore the beautiful country, meet new people and experience new things. What she never expected was to fall out of character and fall irrevocably in love.
The entire situation would …
Excerpt:
Yet, here we are a year later and we couldn’t be happier to have Braden’s first birthday party
tomorrow with our friends and family. Between prepping for the party, me working overtime, and
Maddy finishing up her last summer course, we’ve barely been able to stay awake past eight every

Liezel’s Thoughts:
In my opinion, Let Love Stay can be read as a stand alone but to get the full effects of the Reid and Maddy’s story I do recommend reading Let Love In first before reading this one.

“Damn baby.” He said as I landed in his arms. I couldn’t get close enough to him; I was pulling at his shirt while making love to his mouth. I pulled gently on the little bit of hair Hunter had on his head and that seemed to be his undoing. He slammed me up against the wall, my head thumped against it a little harder than the rest of my body, not painfully though. He …
Liezel’s Thoughts:
“You are my heart, always and forever.”
In the beginning , I was a little frustrated with Hunter but realized that all that wasted time was necessary for them to grow and mature individually. Even with that long wait and the trials that came their way they were still able to pull it together.I loved reading about ALL of their firsts. And when they got to that point, I thought that their passion and romance was perfect.
I …
