When Stranger's Marry, is the updated version of Only In Your Arms. Its been a very long time since I have had the chance to read this one, since I read it many years ago, so it was good to re read it again. There were many things that I found that I just loved about this book. I think one of the many things, is that even though on the surface Lysette seems naive and young, she has great strength and courage, and knows that even though Max is hiding things from her, she still has faith in him, w When Stranger's Marry, is the updated version of Only In Your Arms.

There were many things that I found that I just loved about this book. I think one of the many things, is that even though on the surface Lysette seems naive and young, she has great strength and courage, and knows that even though Max is hiding things from her, she still has faith in him, which is remarkable from the way they interact with each other in the beginning of the story. As the story line progresses though we see how good Max and Lysette are for each other. Max is very ALPHA, to the extreme at times, but also has a protective and gentle nature toward Lysette as well. It was good to see how the plot started to unravel, with its ups and downs, twists and turns, that could make one dizzy at times. Overall I really enjoyed this one, I think the flow could have been a little more smoother but other than that I really enjoyed reading this. Its one of those type books, that you can just immerse yourself in, sit before a fire or on the beach, and enjoy the ride.Seduce Me At Sunrise is the second installment in the Hathaway series by Lisa Kleypas. From the first book in the series, we see and ache for Win, for suffering as she does. I just have loved Kev and Win, and loved reading their story, so achingly sweet yet a tormenting side to the story as well. Kev is a man that is haunted by his past and has suffered much and doesn't reveal his true self to Win, knowing that she could never accept him. But Win is strong and spirited and fights for those that she loves, even stubborn and pig headed Rom's. There were parts of this story that made me cry, and parts that made me laugh, and was a entertaining story to say the least. It stole my heart from the first chapter!!! AN UNFORGETTABLE STORY!!!!

My Favorite Quote
What if this were the last moment you ever had with me? Wouldn't you have been sorry not to tell me how you felt? Wouldn't you--" Merripen covered her mouth with his, desperate for a way to make her quiet. His arms went around her, wrapping her in his vast strength, holding her against the hardness of his body. And then everything ignited, and they were both lost in a furor of need. ...more

This book exceeded even my highest expectations!

Seduce Me At Sunrise is in some ways the "ultimate romance". Merripen and Win have known each other since childhood. Merripen was taken in by the Hathaway family after he was found beaten and abandoned. The Hathaway's saw him as a member of their family, but Merripen has always seen himself as more of a servant and has kept himself "apart" from the family....except for Win.

From the time they were children, Win and Merripen have shared an emotional ...more

Ahhh, even better than the first one, Mine Till Midnight. Kev was fascinating in that story, so I was glad he starred in his own. Love Kleypas's Gypsies! And once again we get to spend time with the entire Hathaway clan, which is definitely a pleasure. It's quite obvious of the love that Win and Kev have for each other, but Kev doesn't think he's good enough for Win due to his dark past. We learn more about the secrets of the pasts of Cam and Kev. This is one of those books that you just have to ...more

I liked this one but what stopped me from loving it was the constant back and forth with Kev. While I enjoy that to some degree I felt there was just a little too much in this story.

There were many scenes between Kev and Win that I loved and reread a couple times. One of my favorites was when Win was doing her exercises with her doctor and Kev didn't like that too much.

Good story, love the characters, I will definitely be reading this one again in the future.
