Publisher's summary

Sawyer LaGrange.

He’s my best friend’s older brother. He’s quiet, brooding, sinfully sexy.... Dark hair, a scruffy square jaw, and deep lines of muscle I trace my fingers along slowly, followed by my lips.... He always does what’s right. Until me... They say you get in life what you have the courage to ask for. Well, I’m brave. And I want him.

Secrets.

Everybody has them. Big, small, innocent...forbidden. Mindy was a line I should never have crossed. But I did. She was beautiful...sassy and tempting. And rules were made to be broken. We broke them all. Now I’m home, released from service with hidden scars. Now my secrets are the demons that grow stronger every day. I try to send her away, but I can’t let her go. She’s my reason to fight, and I’ll walk through hell to be the man she deserves. To give her a reason to stay here with me.

(Here with Me is a stand-alone best friend’s older brother, second-chance, military romance. No cheating. No cliff-hangers.)

Beautiful story.

Here With Me is a beautiful story. This book isn’t one to rush through, savor the words. The hero, Sawyer has been through a lot of tragedy on top of PTSD. There are so many things to learn from reading this book about veterans, it’s an eye opener for me. It’s well written, the plot isn’t rushed and the characters are so loving and supportive. Beautiful book.

Loved

Here With Me was a sweet love story that will warm your heart. Tia Louise brings her characters to life, embedding them into your heart. I read the book and listened to the audio. The narrators took the story and brought it to life. I loved Patrick Zeller as Sawyer and Emma Wilder as Mindy.

Absolutely Wonderful!!!

This story was wonderful!!

I loved everything about it!! The epilogue had so many swoon worthy “awww” moments!

And I love how Sawyer and Noel ended up with each other’s best friends lol

Now on to the narrators: PERFECTION!

Patrick has a deep country drawl that was absolutely perfect for Tarron in Wait With Me and Sawyer in this one. It’s like warm honey ❤️

Emma Wilder is amazing! She isn’t country/southern by nature so her country is softer but it’s beautiful none the less. Seriously no complaints ❤️❤️

Such a powerful story

Extreme emotions, family, forgiveness, and the best kinds of friendship. I loved this story along with Taryn and Noel’s story. Looking forward to reading the HEA of the ancillary characters in these books.

Narration was amazing too!!

Great story, but the female narrator’s voice grated on me

This was a great story, and I thought the male narrator did a wonderful job portraying Sawyer. The female narrator’s male voice was great, but I didn’t like her female character’s voice. It sounded like she was always nervous, fearful, and on the verge of a panic attack even when the character was supposed to be happy. That is the reason for the 3 rating on performance and a 4 instead of a 5 overall.

Here With Me

Amazing! Sawyer’s story does not disappoint! Sawyer snd Mindy are on fire, even when trouble arises you know these two are made for each other! Totally loved this book!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

❤️ Sawyer ❤️ Mindy ❤️

😍 Sawyer 😍. Been waiting for his book. He was the stoic, quiet one of the group, but there is so much more to him deep down. And that’s where he keeps it all buried. When he finally starts having a little happiness with Mindy, Noel’s best friend and the girl he’s silently always loved, always been anchored to, his demons start making an appearance. He feels damaged and doesn’t want to drag her down, knowing he needs to leave and take care of himself. She loves him and wants to help, but when he won’t let her, she knows she needs to learn to stand on her own. And when they came together again after taking care of themselves, you can’t help but cheer them on. I loved their story 😍. It had lots of feels, some warm & fuzzies, some giggles, some tears & sadness, definitely some hotness 🔥🔥🔥. Patrick Zeller gives a sexy southern Sawyer that is just yummy to listen to. And Emma Wilder gives a sweet southern girl Mindy that meshes perfectly. Loved ❤️ Loved ❤️ Loved ❤️

Fantastic story great narration

Great story mixing best friend, military second chance romance, and made a fantastic read. Mindy and Sawyer's story started years before and took a long emotional journey to get together. This story will grab you from the start and never let you go, definitely a must-read, the series, all standalone are fantastic and definitely a must-read, but this one is on my top favorites. I heard also the audiobook and Patrick Zeller and Emma Wilder did a fantastic job narrating this story, I enjoyed it immensely, felt every emotion through their voices, I recommend it.

First Loves and Best Friend's Brothers...

First loves and best friend’s brothers. I love these troupes. This can be read as a stand-alone story, but if you’ve read some of Tia Louise’s other books, you’ll recognize Sawyer and Mindy.

Mindy has loved Sawyer since she was a teenager. He’s her best friends older brother and even though they have an attraction, she’s a little too young for him. Until she’s not. Shortly after they get together, he goes into the service. Sawyer comes back, but he’s not the same man he once was. He is in some ways, but other ways, he’s changed.

A lot of this story is about Sawyer’s demons and the steps he takes to get himself together. Also, it’s about Mindy’s growth and getting her life together. Though we got some romance and a ton of steam, I do wish we would have had more of the couple together in the present as a couple.

Here With Me is narrated by Patrick Zeller and Emma Wilder. They both do a fantastic job voicing Sawyer and Mindy. I’ve enjoyed listening to all of these books in audio. Tia Louise always writes great emotional and steamy reads. This one seemed heavier on the steam than some of her others.

If you’re looking for a sweet and sexy read that is also emotional and deep, and you love a best friend’s brother story, I recommend checking this one out!
