Release Day! Falling for You Again by Kerry Lonsdale ~ My Thoughts @kerrylonsdale #FallingForYouAgain #TheFirstFall

Happy Release Day!


Congrats Kerry
on the release today of
Falling for You Again!

Falling for You Again by Kerry Lonsdale
Audiobook narrated by Amanda Leigh Cobb
Romance, Contemporary, 271 pages
Published July 8, 2025 by Lake Union Publishing

Fate reunites a young woman with her ex-husband in a delightful and inspiring novel about family, old loves, and marriage on a dare by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Kerry Lonsdale.

Furniture artisan Meli Hynes still abides by her uncle’s truism: the only lasting love story is the one between artists and their creations. Having already given marriage a shot—for all of twenty-four hours during a Las Vegas fling—Meli made her choice. The wood-crafting shop that is her family legacy will always come first.

But when her uncle decides to sell to a competitor, Meli’s promised inheritance goes belly-up. She’ll do anything to muddle the deal. Including a marriage of convenience to an unforgettable and very practical old friend—the competitor’s son, Aaron. With a controlling family of his own, and every bit as impulsive as Meli, Aaron is in. After all, this isn’t the first time he and Meli got hitched on a whim.

The rules of the ruse are simple: public displays of affection and live together as happy newlyweds. The hardest rule of all? Never let real feelings get in the way of what they plan to be a purely professional second time around.



My thoughts about Falling for You Again ~~

(I love to note the first lines of the books I'm reading. First lines can really grab a reader's attention and I love seeing where the author takes the reader after their first line.)

First line—"'Love is too fickle, Meli, to waste on someone who will leave you,' Uncle Bear once said to me when I'd asked why he wasn't married."

Family estrangement, drama, second chance romance, best gal pals, business deals—Falling for You Again pretty much has it all. And Kerry Lonsdale has done it again. She has created a world and group of characters that I fell in love with. I enjoy her stories so much and immerse myself completely when I start one of her novels.  

Meli runs on the day of her wedding and runs right into an unexpected, impromptu wedding. The newlyweds come up with a list of rules and attributes that they would want in any future relationship. But is it possible to find someone as perfect as they think they need? 

Right after I read the book, I listened to the audiobook. Even though I knew what was coming, it still was a wonderful story and I savored every minute of it. The narrator does an amazing job, her voice was so easy to listen to. 

Falling for You Again is a fun, romantic tale of finding love again, after having it the first time. I love this story so much. I highly recommend Falling for You Again. This is the perfect summer read for everyone!

I received a copy of Falling for You Again from the author and this is my honest opinion.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? July 7, 2025 #IMWAYR

   

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's an opportunity to visit other blogs and to comment on their reads. And ... you can add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date. And here we are! 

**************************************

How can it be July already?? We had a pretty uneventful 4th, a cookout with some of my kiddos, and I didn't have to host. Yay me! Then we had our 11yo grandson for the rest of the weekend. I have to keep reminding myself that he is 11 and not a 'little' kid anymore. He's getting to be so grown-up!

And now.... on to another week!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. 
Happy reading!

Again with the weather. We have been having some beautiful thunderstorms (I love thunderstorms) and lots of rain. Saturday night was a little hairy though. We were under a tornado watch all night and there were actually tornados that touched down north of us. The videos from that storm are unbelievable. I haven't heard of anyone getting hurt, which is a blessing. We got quite a light show and rain last night, with it starting up again this morning. I know 'we need the rain' but we don't need flooding. 

I feel like I am in slow motion with my reading and not getting anywhere as far as finishing books. I usually have a print book going, as well as an e-book. And I always have an audiobook queued up for when I'm working around the house. Maybe I need to limit myself. Focus, Susan, focus! 

How about you? Do you ready multiple books at the same time?

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. 
Happy reading!

Well, let's talk about the crazy weather. Again. High of 66 today and then 90 tomorrow. Whiplash!! And seriously?

This past week has been a crazy one, reading wise. I've finished a lot of shorter books and short audiobooks. So it looks like a lot but pages 'read', maybe not so much. I'm not sure that it's a whole lot. Plus there have been the books that have sucked me in that I devoured. Looking at you - The Secret Library of Hanna Reeves and Jar of Hearts.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all have a good week. 
Happy reading!
