There is no rehearsal for true love.

But now, eight months later, after a whirlwind romance, Taryn wakes up in Ryan’s Hollywood hotel room to find a diamond to die for on her left ring finger—and he...more

“You’re my world, babe. Mine. Not theirs. They can have me, but they can’t have you, too…. I meant it when I said forever… You are it for me… The me that is standing in front of you right now is not the same me that’s out there in the spotlight… They only get the outside, not the inside. That’s for you.“

Guys may get "blue balls", but this has seriously been the worst case of "blue lips" ever! The wait, the teases...I thought I was going to explode. Then I it came! Love Unrehearsed is finally here! RELEASE!

I hope Tina Reber knows that I'm coming to live with her after I fail out of school. Yep, once I opened this book it took over everything. I tried to study, I tried to sleep, but everything I started ended with Love Unrehearsed! And ended it did!

The pacing of the story was literary genius. Most of the time when you're reading a book you know something big is coming; the climax, the moment you've been waiting for...the buildup! Love Unrehearsed was filled with that from start to finish. There was no one big moment, but several climaxes that came over and over again!

Speaking of climax, Tina Reber took Ryan and Taryn's physical relationship to the next level. What level is that? The level of feeling like I was just f**ked by a book...repeatedly! It was funny too! "But I think he broke my vagina" and "He's still in god status and we all know that god's don't poop" were the best lines ever! I knew Tina Reber was good, but it's like she decided to strip down naked and bathe in awesomeness!!

The only thing I would change about Love Unrehearsed is some of the edits. I know books can't go on forever and publishers have strict guidelines about word count. Not to mention the heat Tina got about Love Unscripted being too long (Since when is length a bad thing...EVER!?), but I couldn't help but feel that there was more to the story. While I was reading Love Unrehearsed, it was almost like I could tell which parts were shortened or places where I know there had to be more...somewhere. Maybe even a chapter in between. I bet there's a super secret hiding place that Tina put the parts that didn't make the final cut. I would love to find that place!

One thing's for sure though...Tina Reber knows how to end a book! The epilogue was so damn good it deserves its own cover! I literally lost count of how many times I read it. When you wait so long for something, you always have that desperate fear of disappointment. Don't fear! Tina knows how to pull a reader in, hold you there, and make you beg never to leave! It was funny, it was hot, it was everything I needed and more! READ ON!(less)

Thanks TR, the wait was agonizing. After the angst ridden roller coaster of the first bk (Love Unscripted) I wasn't sure how Ryan/Taryn would fair this time. Well let me tell you, finally they're solid. Oh sure they have their minor ups and downs but there's no mistaking their love and commitment. I had an instance or two where I thought Taryn might be leaning towards another Love Unrehearsed meltdown, but she rallied quickly after giving herself a pep talk and was back on even ground. Whew! I wanted to give her such a smack in bk 1 and there are references to the BIG meltdown near the end of the first bk and her thoughts now on how she acted. Yes, she regrets her actions and feels stupid having overreacted. Sure hindsight is always 20/20 but I appreciated that part to help foster a little more calm and reassurance that Taryn had grown emotionally. All is not perfect hearts and roses this time, but almost. Ryan and Taryn are both shown with their faults and flaws but to me it just made them more human and relatable. Ryan in love with Taryn is one of the biggest heart melters I've read. Yes, I adore Ryan. That boy's love is solid (swoon). He never wavers; he always gives Taryn 100%. Taryn's abandonment issues flair from time to time but she reels them in and she stands stronger in her love and support for Ryan. Love how they're there for each other through the challenges they face in this bk. Will say the angst level in this bk is WAY down from the last. For me that was welcome, that super angst from the last bk wiped me out.

Lots of changes with the friendship situation. Wow, do they all have their ups and downs. Ryan blames it on his fame causing the rifts that result among them, but I really didn't see that as much as "change" being the issue. Regardless of the miffs and riffs they all settled down to a satisfactory conclusion for me. Marie and Mike have much bigger roles this time and I absolutely loved that. I want to give TR HUGE thanks for the instances of explicit description of Mike's hot bod. Still thinking of those huge shoulders, that massive "smooth chest" and those "V" muscles that drift down to.....ah... well, you get it. (Sorry, gets me sidetracked every time...Sigh). Mike and Marie are absolutely adorable in this bk. Makes me want a feisty little friend like Marie, especially if she'd let me gaze at and drool over sexy Mike.

Plenty of love, Hollywood glamour, drama, surprises, good times and some really funny moments, one of which surrounds Ian Somerhalder. The ending seemed a little rushed but the Epilogue made up for that. I liked this bk so well makes me want to go back and reread them both now that I can relax and know this fairytale love story about a super star and a bar owner ends with a wonderful HEA.

Review of Love Unrehearsed by Tina Reber (and recap of Love Unscripted as well)

Love Unrehearsed is the long-awaited sequel to Tina Reber's awesome debut novel, Love Unscripted. It is the continuation of Taryn Mitchell and Ryan Christensen's love story...a story of doubts and acceptance, of misgivings and trust, of hopes shattered then pieced back together, of total devastation and extreme elation, of closures and new beginnings; and, ultimately, a story of finding blissful peace and life-long co...more

I have to say I am a little disappointed. I love Taryn and Ryan. The first book was full of romantic tension and obstacles that kept the tension going. In Love Unrehearsed, there were a few minor antagonistic elements but not enough to make it suspenseful. It seemed that all of the sparks flew in book one and book two was about the cementing of their relationship. At the end of Love Unrehearsed the last few chapters spanned several years. It felt rushed. Every other paragraph seemed to skip ahea...more

Don't get me wrong the drama & evil ones are still on the set but my beuatiful duo are definitely taking control of the script! Kudos to Ms Reber! Oh yes this is quite promising & I do believe I may go insane waiting to finish their story! Please do hurry as I simply need their beautiful ending because I just know Taryn & Ryan are strong enough to make it through anything thrown at them!!!

P.S. In my opinion Adele's song "Make You Feel My Love" summarized Taryn & Ryan's love so well in the first book but in this book (so far) although that song seems to linger slightly it seems Jason Mraz's song "I Wont Give Up" is more appropriate. We'll see.....

******UPDATE*******

It is official the second book is as great as the first 4 ARC chapters promised. This is one of the rare times where I actual love the second book as much or even more than the first. Ryan & Taryn continue to struggle with falling in love while being scrutinized & having to battle for control from all the leeches in Ryan's life! They face conflict at every turn & yet their love grows stronger. They learn who & what is most important in life. Their characters continue to develop into wonderfully well rounded & loving individuals. Their love is so realistic & admirable, throughout the story, that you have no choice but to relate to them. You will find yourself rooting for their success while hoping for other's demise. You will laugh, cry, smile, frown & feel each bend in their path completely. A very wonderful conclusion to one of my favorite stories. Well done Ms Reber.

FYI: "I Wont Give Up" by Jason Mraz absolutely remains the theme song for these two & this book.

On a side note, I REALLY loved the Mike & Marie addition to the story! Won't say anymore but yes!(less)

This was a highly anticipated release for me, while I am glad Taryn and Ryan are madly in love and there is a lot of sex going on, I felt like this book lacked some meat. I was hoping to see Ryan's possessive side develop a little and cause a conflict between Taryn and Ryan, or possibly Taryn becoming a model and Ryan becoming jealous. The ending seemed a bit rushed, we waited two books to hear them say I do and it was over in 3 paragraphs, with no actual view of their vows:/ I really hope this...more

I desperately needed a Ryan Christensen fix and I got it in a BIG way! If I swooned over him in the first book, I S.W.O.O.N.E.D. for him in this book.

Ryan is HOT! I mean, if he was a real person, I would be a total fangirl. The man is sex on a stick and has that whole controlling jealousy thing down without being too overbearing. Yes, there are times it seemed like he was taking this control to the extreme but he was trying to protect the woman he loves! I appreciated that he always put Taryn first and was understanding when his career choice caused some jealousy in Taryn. For me, he is perfect in so many ways!

Taryn is the type of female character that I love! She is strong but still lets Ryan take care of her. She is independent and isn’t looking for a walking bank account. She is confident but not full of herself. She goes through quite a bit since she is in a relationship with a major movie star but her love for Ryan is stronger than all of the outside noise and she is not easily broken!

These two had CRAZY chemistry and I will say this book had more steam than the first book. These two have a definite magnetic force pulling them together and I loved that they were inseparable. I think they may have spent more time with their clothes off than one. Ryan said it best really, “David, cancel everything. My gorgeous fiancée is glued to my body and I have absolutely no desire to put on pants — ever.” He did eventually put his pants on but they never seemed to stay on long. And the prenup on a napkin…I was reduced to a puddle on the ground.

The romance between Mike and Marie was a great addition to this book. They are incredible friends to Ryan and Taryn and I am glad they found each other. The little competitions between the couples added a little humor;)

Overall, I found this book to be an incredibly HOT yet sweet Hollywood love story. The story was told well but I would have liked a little more angst. I simply needed a little more conflict. It is for that reason that this one did not score quite as high as Love Unscripted.

Let me start off by saying that I enjoyed the first book very much and I can't help but compare this book to the first in the series. I honestly felt a little disconnected from the first book as I was reading this book. There are items that are brought to light in this book, such as Taryn's nightmares and Ryan's anxiety, that have clearly been affecting them for some time, but they are never mentioned in the first book. Yes, the first book covers a time span of 8 months, but for these items to h...more

"We were the only two people in the world.
Sitting in the street.
In a small stream.
In the rain.
And just like that, my gorgeous man replaced bad with another slice of great."

I absolutely loved the characters, especially my sweet and down-to-earth Ryan. As my friend Amaia told me, he is the one who makes the story worth reading and I agree with her.

"You are home for me. You'll always be my home, Taryn"

"Tar, I knew that very first day I stumbled into your pub that you were the one. I think I fell in love with you when you were rubbing that shit on my cuts."

Despite of the lack of drama and angst in this last book I enjoyed it but I must confess that I liked "Love Unscripted" more than this one.
In "Love Unrehearsed", Ryan and Taryn had to deal with the celebrities' lifestyle, a world full of evil people who tried to ruin their life together over and over again.

"How can our love for each other possibly survive through all these constant bombardments, accusations, and heartaches?"

But what they got was the opposite of what they wanted. I really loved to see how they finally get over their trust issues, build a life together and also how their relationship got stronger and unbreakable.

"I wrote that song on the airplane. I wanted you to know how serious I am about us. How much I want you in my life, Taryn. I meant it when I said forever. That's why. You are it for me. But the me that knelt in front of you that night and the me that is standing in front of you right now is not the same me that's our there in the spotlight. They only get the outside, not the inside. That's four you".

I wanted to read about fame and the celebrity world and in that subject the storyline doesn't disappoint. But I've to complain about the senseless at some parts of the book.
The story as a whole is so long and sometimes it gets kind of boring but as I said before it's worth making the effort to read it.

"As soon as I saw him there with his hands clasped in front of him, his hair gently tussled by the ocean breeze, that breathtaking smile he wore just for me -nothing else mattered. This man was my everything."

"You always twine our fingers together when you make love to me."

Gonna miss you Ryan!

I love Ryan a Taryn's story. This had the ending we were all hoping for, but honestly the getting there in this book was a bit too easy. Don't get me wrong...the story is beautiful, but it lacked the drama and suspense the first book had. There were ample opportunities and "bad guys" and "bad girls" for it as well, but every time I thought something might happen.....well...there you go.

I can’t remember reading a book with so much swoon! Sensational!

Definitely a winner for those who fell in love with Ryan and Taryn (well, probably just Ryan if we're being honest) in Love Unscripted, this book is like one gloriously long epilogue. There isn’t really one major storyline, rather the book just follows Ryan and Taryn along a series of ups and downs as they build their life together while dealing with the highs and lows of the celebrity lifestyle. Sure, there is drama, and more than a few surprises, but nothing so intense as the first book, and whatever happens between them, they deal with it together and don’t let it impact on their relationship. They are so functional! And it’s so gorgeous to read!

Ryan "Freakin’" Christensen is still hotter than all hell and proved himself to be absolute perfection! But the big surprise was the seriously sexy Mike Murphy – damn, that man can also bring the swoon. As Marie said - “They’re like the dynamic duo poster boys of sexiness”. Hell yes they are! And I loved that he got a romantic storyline that fitted in so beautifully with Ryan and Taryn’s.

Actually it was almost a little too close at times…

“Taryn suggests we make a wager on this evening’s festivities.”
“Ryan!”
He pushed me back with his fingertips. “Shush.”
Mike leaned a hand on the door frame. “Wager?”
“First man to fold.”
Mike’s eyes cut to me once, quickly. “Interesting. I’m in. Time or quantity?” he asked as casually as if they were discussing the weather.
“What time is our flight again?”
“Eleven forty-five. We’re gone by nine,” Mike’s deep voice rumbled.
“Time. We can sleep on the plane.”
“Agreed. Bet?”
“Two bills?”
“Sounds fair. Women keeping time?”
“Yep,” Ryan quipped. “Time gets written down so there’s no cheating.”
“Anything else?” Mike asked.
“Nope.”
“What time is it now?”
Ryan leaned around to see my alarm clock. “Ten after eleven.”
I watched as they shook hands.
“Have a good night,” Mike said with a nod.
“You too, man.” Ryan tapped his shoulder and then locked our bedroom door.
Me and my big mouth.

LOL, that still makes me laugh. There are funny moments throughout the story, which balance out nicely with the dramas that Ryan and Taryn face, dramas both in Taryn’s personal life as well as Ryan’s celebrity status - my heart broke for Ryan and what he had to go through. It actually made me feel guilty for ever buying a gossip mag! But the focus is definitely on the romance, and holy hell is it hot!! Wow! So much hotness! Oh, and did I mention swoon? Lots, and lots of swoon!!!!

This was an immensely enjoyable, stress free read. I was dreamy sighing the whole way through. And just to top it off, the ending was perfection, followed by an actual epilogue which was pretty much beyond perfection. Everything a die-hard romance fan could ask for.

“You are it for me. But the me that knelt in front of you that night and the me that is standing in front of you right now is not the same me that's out there in the spotlight." He thumped his hand over his heart. "They only get the outside, not the inside. That's for you.”

And one more, just for good measure… SWOOOOOOON!(less)
