3 ⭐⭐⭐ - OK decent reads.

Love it!
A Kiss Beneath the Stars is a sweet romance story between two characters who aren’t looking for love but find it while vacationing. The author does a great job establishing their connection and keeping the reader interested in the story line. I have to say that Autumn frustrated the hell out of me because the constantly ran away from her problems instead of talking them out. Hunter was able to show her how great a person she was and what she meant to him. Hoping there will be another sto ...more

Loved it!
My first book by this author and I loved it. I found myself hooked from the first pages and I couldn’t put it down. I loved Hunter but I wanted to throw my kindle a few times because of Autumn. Autumns ex was a real jerk so I understand why Autumn was the way she was. I’m really excited to read more about the Malone brothers!

This is the first book I have read by S.L. Sterling and I truly enjoyed it. This book is an emotional rollercoaster. Autumn has been through some horrible times in the past few years. She went through something tragic and then her husband asked for a divorce. I felt for her but after reading the book this was the best thing that ever happened to her. He is something else. The way he makes it seems as though it was all her fault when it wasn’t something she could even control is horrible. Her sis

This is a sweet romance. Nothing prepares either Hunter or Autumn for the attraction there is between them. Autumn is still recovering from her divorce and failed marriage; Hunter is not looking for anything meaningful, when a chance vacation brings them together. I really enjoyed the genuineness of this book. The struggle that Autumn faces following her marriage is so real. I loved Hunter being a completely honest and good guy who counters ...more

3.5 stars. I enjoyed this book but it was just okay. I didn't feel the swoon that some other felt. The hero was hot but I wanted the heroine to be a little stronger.

take a journey with Sterling and the characters created for this contemporary romance dealing with loss, divorce, exs, freedom, new beginnings and Autumn and Hunter. Watching their story unfold was an experience. The cast of characters were rich, warm, inviting, amusing, sincere, obtuse, annoying, rude, and special. This one gave.
Autumn was plagued with grief and abandonment. She spent so much time in her head and lost in the world. Hunter was a self-assured man that was working so hard. He was ...more

I wanted to love this book. I really did. And there were really good things about it, but overall, I just liked A Kiss Beneath the Stars.
The good: it was a sweet romance (with some dirty stuff!). It was pretty mild on the drama. I liked Hunter and his brothers. They felt the most real to me, and I will read their stories. I really liked the plot! There was a great premise.
The not-so-good: there was a lot of “telling” the story, rather than “showing”. I really didn’t care for Autumn or her sist ...more

(audiobook) A KISS BENEATH THE STARS is a very sweet romance. Both characters are adorable, and the angst is at the minimum–compared with the romance part. It’s so sugary that you risk cavities reading/listening to it.
It starts with a broken woman and a man not looking past a rebound; then it becomes a vacation fling; and the more the story progresses, the more the relationship deepens. That’s what I enjoyed the most. It felt kind of realistic–if you ever experienced that sort of fast romance (h ...more

Summer vacation romances are fast becoming one of my favorite sub-genres. This book was a quick and easy read. I think the heart of the book really elevated the story for me. I felt the writing was very well done and the story progressed at a believable pace. The characters overall, were well written with depth and vulnerability. At times, I had a hard time connecting with Autumn. I understood her insecurities and the difficulties life placed before her, but at times I felt that she was very imm

This book had me hooked right from the start! I loved this story even though my heart was breaking for what Autumn was going through. Although Autumn felt like she was weak she is actually a very strong person.

A wonderful heartfelt romance. It has interesting well developed, likeable characters with hot chemistry. I was engrossed from the beginning to the end on a rollercoster of emotions including fate, misunderstandings, hot chemistry, and blind fear. Autumn devestated by a divorce she didnt see coming and was put the blame on for including devasting tragic event, which emotional destroyed her and felt broken and insuffiencient. When her sister forced her into a bad blind date that never showed she

What a beautiful book! I felt such a connection to these characters. You first want to reach in and grab ahold of Autumn and just give her a hug. They way her horrible Ex husband treated her was such an awful thing for any woman to go through. And how he tried to escape his guilt buy just giving her everything in the divorce. what a monster! Thank god for Hunter. His patience with Autumn, and the way he leaned on his brothers for advice rather than giving up on her. That's how men should be. The

Heartbreak, loss, betrayal, and love fill the pages of this book. The author introduces us to the life of a woman who has experienced multiple loss over the course of a year. With a loving but pushy sister, her life takes a turn for the better only to be overcome by her fear of losing once again. The story takes a few twists and turns which might surprise you. I did think that the main character was starting to get a bit whiny near the end and it was beginning to become tiresome. I'm glad the au
