Well, technically no since it's not a series you have "get curent".
It's for series you haven't gotten to catch up on.

Really good on audio (Lucky Harbor). My favorite was Chloe and sawyer in book 3. And I liked the first 3 with the sisters the best. The subsequent ones felt "younger"

Picked by — Paris

Thanks for picking this series Paris! I loved it and am so sorry to see it end!

With Me in Seattle Series
Rock with Me — ★★★★★ 1/8
I really wasn't expecting much from Samantha's story. Truly, I haven't liked her even though she has chilled out since the first book. After this book, I just love her. Knowing more about her helped swing me the other way. I really loved this book...Leo is this bad ass rocker, but is really just a sweet, loving man looking for his place in the world. Both are so fiercely loyal it's almost amazing their story worked, but work it did! I'm looking to seeing how their story continues in the coming books.

Safe with Me — ★★★★★ 1/15
Oh the elusive Caleb! As much as I wanted to dislike the guy since he can be such a stand offish jerk...it was hard because he was just trying to keep his girls safe! Big props to the very strong Brynna...I will always have a great deal of respect for single moms (and dads)...and I very much appreciate authors who showcase the struggles they go through to keep their families together, safe and happy! The "mystery" part, while totally plausible, wrapped up way to quickly and neatly...but I can forgive that since I knew it would result in a happily ever after! :)

Tied with Me — ★★★★ 1/16
Matt is quite the multi-dimentional character. There is the dom, the cop, the brother and son. There has been a lot alluded to where Matt was concerned, but I enjoyed getting to know him better in this book. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to hit up Nic's bakery either! These two make an interesting couple...not obvious, but it works none the less.

Breathe with Me — ★★★★★ 1/21
After reading all the books, I have to say, this one hit a special spot. High school sweethearts can make for boring stories sometimes, but this was definitely not the case here. Having lost my mom 11 years ago and dad nine, I could identify a little too well what Meredith was feeling and why she wanted to keep her distance. It's difficult being surrounded by milestone moments that your parents would generally be a part of. In addition to Mark and Meredith, I really liked meeting Jax! He added another interesting layer to this story.

Forever with Me — ★★★★★ 1/22
What an amazing end to this series! I wasn't sure how I was going to like Dominic's story. He came into the fold later, which didn't bother me, but I didn't know if I could get as invested as I was with the Montgomery and Williams families. I couldn't have been more wrong! I really loved Dom and how he fit into the Montgomery mix. Having seen a bits and pieces of Alecia through the books it was awesome to get to know her, too. As this (seems to) completes the series, I have to say this book had the best epilogue. I was so sad to hear "the end," but I'm happy I can start from the beginning to enjoy this series all over again!
