Story
Ashylnn didn't want him.... She craved him. That was her first mistake, but not her last. She's the boss of her life and decisions. She doesn't have time for a bearded, inked man. But he may just make her yearn for it. Jax thought it would only be for one night, but now he wants more. She's the straight-laced executive to his leather-and-jeans life, and she makes him desire more. She is so much more. But how much, he may never know.

Story
Tattoo artist Brandon never thought he'd see her again. He'd trained himself never to think of her or what they'd had together. It was the only way he'd been able to survive, but now she's standing right in front of him and he can hardly breathe. Lauren hadn't known he'd be part of her plans until it was too late. She'd thought he was gone from her life and memories forever. Now he's in her orbit once more and she'll have to fight to remember the girl she once was and the woman she's become.

Story
Being in love with your best friend isn't always easy, as Harper Rosso knows. He's been by her side since the beginning, but now that she finally has time to breath, he might just be able to show her what he could be for her. Only he'll have to make sure he's ready to take that chance and perhaps lose her forever. Sparks fly between the two of them once they finally take their relationship to the next level. Only the burning temptation that fills them might not be enough in the face of what they left behind and what threatens their future.

The Montgomery Ink saga continues with a bonus romance between two strangers on a path of healing that leads to something far more. Zia Clarkson thought she found her happily-ever-after, not once, but twice. Her first love is now engaged, and her second love broke more than her heart. Heart and soul bruised; she’s not looking for a relationship. Ever. Especially not with the uptight Meredith Legend who stars in her fantasies. They promised each other one night of passion. And when the sun rises, they’ll walk away - even if they’re both lying to themselves about why.

Every man knows there are lines you don't cross. Like this one - don't bang your boss' little sister. Too bad I didn't know sexy, clever, irresistible London is related to the guy who signs my paychecks. Would have been helpful to have that intel before I took her out on that first date, before I kissed her on the beach, before I made plans to take her home that night.

Nate Brady and Myra West have been keeping a secret, though not just from their group - also from each other. Getting married when they were barely adults wasn’t in the cards when they made their plans for their future. Divorcing one another amid pain and heartbreak wasn’t either. Years have passed, wounds have scabbed over and scarred, but their anger remains. If the two can open themselves to the impossible, they might be able to take that second chance. Only they’ll also have to fight their fears, the lies between them, and the desire they thought long gone.

Publisher's Summary
Grayson Cleary left town before graduation day and never looked back. Most people back home pegged him as a dropout. Over time, he's worked to make something of his life and leave his past behind, so when his 10-year reunion comes up, he has no intention of attending. When his best friend begs him to go, Grayson finds himself confronted with a past he'd rather forget and the one woman he's always craved.
Kate St. Dalton had everything when she left her hometown. Not only was she Valedictorian with a full scholarship, but she was also engaged to the boy of her dreams. Then, life threw a wrench in her plans, and she had to find a way to live the new life fate handed her. The last thing she needs is the hot boy from high school returning to town as the sexy man of her dreams.
When the two take a chance and use the reunion week to burn up the sheets, they'll have to remember that it's only for a few nights - not for a lifetime. And decide if what they have is just a fling...or something far more than a mere reunion.

Emotional love story
I asked to receive this free review Audible book and wrote this unbiased review. This may be a short story but it is jam packed full of hope and love. Kate and Grayson had been high school sweethearts but then their lives took different paths. They are given a second chance and we learn so much more about their previous hardships. Carrie has written an emotional and heart lifting story. It's one of those stories that you just want to know so much more about the characters. Gregory Salinas does an outstanding job of portraying the emotions and personalities of these characters. He brings the author's words to life. I highly recommend this Audible book.

Kate and Grayson
This is a short listen with a lot of meat to the story in my opinion. I enjoyed that the characters had history and not a romance history but the want did not diminish over time for there to be a romance between them. Her ex was a douche canoe. I would have to slap him at some point or something. Gregory Salinas is one of my favs and does a great job with this one!

Reunited again
Could Kate's ex Jason be more of a D bag- NO!!! I wanted to throttle him for being alive. Kate's had her share of mistakes, but Grayson wasn't one of them! I loved their connection and interactions. Both mc had integrity and strength of character that I admired. Looking forward to more. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this story and am giving an honest review. The narrator's voice and expressions added to my enjoyment of this story. Great job. Love, loved the epilogue!!!

Grayson & Kate
This is my first Carrie Ann Ryan book, and it certainly won't be my last. If she can pack so much into a novella, I can only imagine what treats she has in store for me with a full length novel! This book features Grayson. He goes home to his 10 year reunion at the request of his best friend. He doesn't want to go, facing his past is not something he is looking forward to. But when he sees his high school crush, Kate, things change. Kate was destined for success, but her path took a turn, and now she is struggling. Will this formerly popular fall for the bad boy? It has situations that are true to life and easy to relate to. The characters are easy to become invested in and I loved every minute of their story. Narrated by Gregory D Salinas, Ryan could not have chosen a better voice. He is perfect in these roles, giving all the emotional value and passion to the characters. He is a wonderful storyteller and I always enjoy his narrations.
