This book is the type that just makes you want to lean back and enjoy. I have a weakness for family stories, and this hits all the right buttons in that respect, making me eager for the stories of the other family members.
I loved the aspect of Kate's writing career. I always love writer-heroes/heroines in books and pleasant, good-humored Kate was no exception. And for all his flaws, Colton doesn't hesitate to get right down and help out others, a quality I always admire in a hero and ...more

*Sighs* From the Start was such a great book! I absolutely loved reading it and getting to know these characters.
I loved the setting -- it was great to get back to this small town, which we got to know a little bit from the novella, Three Little Words.
The romance was sweet, story superb, and writing great. I definitely recommend it if you enjoy contemporary romance.
All in all, I loved From the Start from the start on. ;) I can't wait to read Melissa Tagg's latest book, Like Never Before!

From the Start is the first full length novel I've read by Melissa Tagg. I had already read Three Little Words, the prequel to this book, and really enjoyed it, so was looking forward to reading this book - and I wasn't disappointed! This story was so sweet and cute, with many funny lines and scenes. I'm now really looking forward to reading more by this author...I don't know why I didn't read her books before now!

4.75 stars!
I read the majority of this book in 24 hours-that can probably tell you how much I enjoyed this book!
Melissa Tagg has managed to write another fun, witty, entertaining romantic novel. A novel that had me laughing out loud, and making me want to watch a game of football (which I am not a fan of). So good! Great characters and family dynamics. I can't wait to read the next book in the series!!! ...more
