Shelves: tpl, reviews, romance-contemporary, author-first-reads

Small-town romances can go in two very different directions for me. I usually either REALLY love them or REALLY hate them. Since they are typically low-angst and less steamy, I really need to be able to bond not only with the hero and heroine, but also with the community and secondary characters. If I can find myself immersed into the everyday life of the community and get a real feel for what would be like to live there and fit in then I’m likely going to enjoy the story. It’s a hard thing to a ...more

A charming story with some familiar characters in a new setting and while the story takes place around the holiday season, it can be read any time of year.

My heart went out to Aidan Caine and the circumstances that had him rethinking about the important things in life. What a good, kind, sweet man, and I hated how the residents of Haven Point misjudged him and held him responsible for near collapse of their town. He had so much to deal with and they just added to his misery. I was glad that he had Eliza and her adorable daughter, Maddie, who came unexpectedly into his life, but I wish Eliza had gone to bat for him sooner. I did feel bad for her, she was dealing with a lot herself, but I didn't like how she was so critical of Aidan. He opened up his home to her and did everything to make up for what happened earlier in the story, when it clearly wasn't his fault. When she finally understood the enormity of what he was dealing with, his own scary life changing circumstances, she did come around and gave him the support he needed and was so deserving of. These were two people who clearly needed each other, and their romantic journey was a sweet one,

Oh my, the Caines from the Hope's Crossing series come for a visit and what a delight it was to catch up with them, most especially my man Dylan! He was my absolute favorite in that series along with his new wife Gen. I didn't realize they would play a role here, and it was a pleasant surprise to connect with them again.

I was a little disappointed with the ending, and while it was satisfying, it came on suddenly and I never really got to enjoy Aidan and Eliza as a couple. I'm hoping as the series moves forward that we'll see them again, along with that cutie Maddie. I have no doubt we will since the next book focuses on Aidan's best friend, Ben, and the town mayor, McKenzie, who befriended Eliza.

There is sexual tension, but this is a clean romance. Frankly, these stories really require nothing more than some smooching, and thoughts and expressions about the desire the main characters have for each other. It's enough, the story itself had plenty of impact.

The author does a wonderful job endearing the reader to the characters and their plight, engaging emotions, and bringing the hometown feel and sense of community into the story. A pleasant thought provoking book about family and friends, finding true love, and grabbing a hold of life before it passes you by! ...more

I started this earlier (apparently in February), but got diverted when I realized that there were obviously some characters from another series involved. I hate reading things out of order. For some reason, this hit my radar again and I just went with it. There is a lot missing from prior books, but I was swept up so much into Aiden and Eliza that I just didn't care.

I hate reading things out of order. For some reason, this hit my radar again and I just went with it. There is a lot missing from prior books, but I was swept up so much into Aiden and Eliza that I just didn't care.

I was pulled into Eliza by the disaster she faces in the beginning of this book. She arrives at her new job as a hotel manager only to find the place burned to the ground. So much for the job. Worse, crossing the street with her daughter, she's then hit by an SUV that hit a patch of black ice. Nothing serious, but enough to bring her to the attention of the driver, Aiden Caine. Surprisingly, this didn't feel contrived at all. Thayne does an excellent job making it all seem plausible and at least part of that is in drawing us to Eliza and experiencing the events with her.

As important to the story is Eliza's daughter Maddie. Again, Thayne delivers a good deal of drama and makes it real through her extremely well-drawn characters. You can see Eliza's care and courage; her strength and determination; and her vulnerability and need all wrapped up in her daughter's welfare. You'd have to be made of stone not to want to help her and Aiden is not that.

Aiden is his own level of engaging. A driven tech geek, he's successful and smart but is also recovering from his own setback and need for change. You can see his strength and vulnerability as well and it was a pure delight watching as he's drawn to both Maddie and Eliza—at first for their plight, but very quickly in their own right as well. I loved watching him fall in love with Maddie nearly as much as with her mother.

My only hesitation on the five stars is that Maddie is a little too perfect as the five year-old with medical issues. I've known children as good-natured as she is, but never any so consistently so. It's a small detraction in the overall excellence of the book, though, so in the end, it didn't affect my rating. This was an incredible story and I look forward to delving into some of Thayne's backlog soon. ...more

Eliza has come to Haven Point to start a new job as a hotel manager only to learn that the hotel has just burned to the ground. With no job and no home, she's not sure what she's going to do. As she and her daughter are crossing the street, she is hit by a car that hit a patch of black ice. Aidan is horrified by what happened, and how much worse it could have been. As he takes Eliza and her daughter back to his home for the night, he wonders what he can do to help. With his family coming to visit for the holidays, he hits on the idea of asking Eliza to help get his huge new home ready for his family.

Eliza isn't too sure about accepting the job. She's very wary of Aidan. Unknown to him, her husband had died, possibly intentionally, after unsuccessfully trying to sell a software idea to Aidan's company. Her husband had been obsessed with trying to make as much money as possible, but took so many risks he ended up leaving Eliza in poor financial shape. She is now wary of anyone she thinks is more interested in money than people. But she is desperate for employment that will give her what she needs to support her daughter, as she has learned that she can only depend on herself for what she needs. The more time she spends with Aidan, the more she discovers that he is very different from the man she thought he was. She's attracted to him, but even more than that, she sees a man who is in need of someone to love him and show him how to reconnect with the people around him.

Aidan is the middle child in a large family (the Caines from Hope's Crossing) but has always been the different one. The family is big and outgoing, where Aidan was always the quiet, focused, bookish one. After he graduated from college and started his business, he found himself working long days and pushing his relationship with his family into the background. In the last few years he has seen them only a few times during the year. After a recent health scare, he has realized that he wants to be part of the family again, but he's not sure how to accomplish it. With the purchase of his huge home, he came up with the idea of having them all visit for Christmas, but now he's beginning to wonder if it was such a good idea. Though he offered the job to Eliza out of guilt, he quickly comes to see her as far more.

I loved seeing Eliza and Aidan together. The attraction between them is strong, but both are wary about getting involved. Eliza's initial dislike of Aidan is quickly overcome as she sees how nice a guy he really is. Once she learns about his medical issues, she starts to understand his motivation for his holiday plans. I loved seeing her fuss over him, but also not pull any punches when she doesn't agree with something he does. One of the things that really softens her attitude toward him is seeing how wonderful he is with her daughter. She starts to fall for him, but doesn't see any possibility for a future between them.

Aidan sometimes seems like a bundle of contradictions. He really is a nice guy, but his people skills are sometimes a little lacking. He is much more comfortable with computers than with trying to figure out emotions. He really wants to reconnect with his family after his health scare, but he also doesn't want to tell them about it. He's not really happy when Eliza tells him that he's an idiot for shutting them out. Though he had hired Eliza out of guilt and wanting to help her, the more he's around her the more he discovers that he needs her. That need sometimes scares him into pushing her away, but he can't maintain the distance for long. He has a hard time expressing his feelings, but with her help he gets better at it. I loved the way he went about trying to show her how he felt. His Christmas surprise for her was terrific.

As always with RaeAnne Thayne's books, family is a central theme. Aidan's love for his family is obvious in everything he says and does as he tries to get his house ready for their visit. I loved hearing him tell Eliza all about them. Their love for him is just as obvious, both in their treatment of him, but also the teasing among them all. I loved the way his sister and sisters-in-law all noticed the changes in him and tried to get Eliza to say something about it. I loved seeing them all together for Christmas, and how Aidan finally saw the truth of what Eliza had been telling him about confessing to his family.

I'm really looking forward to reading more about the town and people of Haven Point. I liked the way that they so quickly made Eliza part of the community. Her acceptance also started to pave the way for Aidan. Most of the people weren't very nice to him at all as they waited to see what he was going to do with all the property he now owns. I liked the way that Eliza used what she learned to explain to Aidan what was happening with the town. I expect the stories for the people of Haven Point are going to be just as wonderful as those about Hope's Crossing. ...more

I had grown so attached to the characters, especially the Caine family. I knew she was going to start a new series of books and I was a little curious to see how the first book would be. I shouldn't have worried! It was wonderful! To "bridge the gap", the first book is about Aiden Caine who is from Hope's Crossing! We have met him a couple times in RaeAnne's previous books. He is a tech genius and the multimillionaire owner of his own company. Because he's lived in Calif., he's only "popped in" the other books here and there, plus he's very quiet. In this book, he's bought a large guest lodge in Idaho as a place where his huge extended family can come for the holidays and where he can relax when he's not working in Calif. Unfortunately, he happens to hit Eliza with a rental car after skidding on a piece of ice! Eliza and her little girl, Maddie, have come to Lake Haven to begin a new job but they arrive to find out the job managing a hotel has gone up in smoke - it is burning down as she arrives! She has no idea what she will do now and it's at that moment that Aiden hits her as she & Maddie are crossing the street!

Aiden feels terrible about hitting Eliza and finds out she has no place to go so he "invents" a job for her at his guest job since his family is coming and he needs help getting it ready anyway. I so much enjoyed all the characters in the book! Sue & Jim, the caretakers of the lodge were wonderful people! I especially enjoyed RaeAnne having all the Caines come for Christmas to the lodge! What fun to catch up with them and get to interact with them again! And I loved Eliza's little girl, Maddie! What a sweet, sweet girl she was! The relationship between Aiden and Eliza was very believable also. Both of them were so reluctant because of their pasts but they had a lot to give each other! I would highly recommend this book! ...more

Shelves: new-to-me-authors-2014, romance

Despite her huge backlist, RaeAnne Thayne was a new-to-me author. I have never read her books before – and because I have read more M/M romance over the last few years, I don’t pay attention much to the M/F contemporary romance genres. I have only started reading them again this year, and this one caught my attention while I was browsing through new releases with holiday themes.

In the beginning, I was a bit worried when I found out that the hero, Aidan Caine, was related to Thayne’s character in Despite her huge backlist, RaeAnne Thayne was a new-to-me author. I have never read her books before – and because I have read more M/M romance over the last few years, I don’t pay attention much to the M/F contemporary romance genres. I have only started reading them again this year, and this one caught my attention while I was browsing through new releases with holiday themes.

In the beginning, I was a bit worried when I found out that the hero, Aidan Caine, was related to Thayne’s character in the previous series, Hope’s Crossings. I wondered if I needed to read those books first. Well, after I finished, I could safely say that this could be read as stand-alone, as a start of a new series.

Aidan and Eliza’s meeting is one of those chance-encounters when he almost runs her down with the car. Feeling responsible, Aidan then asks Eliza to stay at his newly-bought huge residential house and then asks for her help preparing the house since Aidan’s huge family is coming down for Christmas time. Eliza accepts, because she is basically stuck at Haven Point after her job is literally burned down to the ground. So she needs a place to stay and a new job to support herself and her five-year old daughter.

Anyway, for me, this was a gentle, mature, and a perfect holiday read. You know those Holiday Hallmark movies – ones that come with a lot of snow, hot chocolate, the warmth of being with family and friends, and well, fuzziness of slow-built but very satisfying romance? Yep, this was what this book felt like for me.

I thought both Aidan and Eliza had their own personal issues to overcome – Aidan was the middle child, he was also a tech genius who felt like he needed to prove his own worth by doing things by himself. Therefore, he had been away most of the time from his big family. Even when he was diagnosed with a malign brain tumor and underwent a surgery, Aidan kept this news to himself and very few other people. He refused to tell his family about it. So I thought Eliza and Maddie brought much-needed love to Aidan’s life, they helped Aidan to be more ‘connecting’ towards others, to relax, and to enjoy life outside work.

While Eliza finally had someone that she could count on – she loved her deceased husband, but at the same time, he wasn’t there when she needed him the most. And here was Aidan who was willing to spend time with her and her daughter too. Aidan was kind, patient, and gentle towards Maddie. Let me tell you, the scenes with the three of them were some of my favorites. I just loved these three people so much.

So yes, it is a great holiday book – it has all the elements needed to curl up on your bed, with hot drink, and just fall in love with the characters. I seriously cannot wait to read the next story in this series. I think it will be very interesting, because the heroine for the next book, the mayor of Haven Point, seems to hate the hero’s guts! So it will be interesting to see them overcome that problem.

Moreover, I love Christmas, complete with all its frills and chills, the snow and the tree, the carol singing and just about everything! This book brings together both my loves and therefore logic says that I have to love it, right? And I did!

RaeAnne Thayne is a splendid author who is among Debbie Macomber and Robyn Carr for me when it comes to creating love stories that are based in small towns. I simply adore Debbie Macomber and Robyn Carr for the manner in which they create strong stories, where romance plays a small but integral role but where the small town interactions are the main focus. And Thayne in this book as well as in her other series Hopes Crossing does just that and does it beautifully.

The story begins with Eliza and her daughter Maddie, packing their belongings and coming to Haven Point to start a new life with a new job, only to find that the new job has gone into smoke, literally! To add insult to injury, Eliza meets with an accident immediately thereafter, when she is run down by Aidan Caine, on that same wintry night! Largely to assuage his guilt, Aidan offers her a job, albeit a temporary one, to look after his house for Christmas as he was expecting his family (a huge one at that) during that period.

What I loved most about this book was the small town interactions between the regulars, the way in which they accepted Eliza and Maddie into their midst and their chilly disposition towards Aidan for reasons that are revealed in the book and finally the full on family cheer that one expects with Christmas around the corner. Having just had a full week of fun filled festivities in real life, reading a book that talked about similar festivities definitely made me like the book more.

The romance between Aidan and Eliza, although some may call it cliched, was definitely beautiful. I will admit that I did sigh a lot while reading this book - but then I love romances, I told you that earlier, didn't I? So how could I not gush over this one. And the little Maddie just stole my heart with her innocence and her worldliness.

Definitely recommended to those who love small town romances, full of small town interactions and a series that I am sure will only get better. As for me, I am looking forward to reading the remaining books in the series.. Ouch there is going to be a wait for those I think. Let's hope I don't have to wait too long. Ms Thayne - I hope you are listening! :) ...more
