Forgotten Desires by Corinne Michaels is now live! 

He’s a billionaire in need of a wife …

And I’m his ex who can’t say no to him.

Ten years ago Carson Knight was my one great love, but he abandoned me without a trace.

Now he’s a billionaire single-dad in need of a temporary wife.

And he’s at my house on one knee with a proposal…

Marry him, so he’s more likely to win full custody of his daughter, keeping her safe from her unstable mother. In return, he’ll take care of the medical expenses for a surgery my father needs to survive.

Reluctantly, I agree to tie the knot, on one condition. Once those custody papers are signed, we go our separate ways. Because he’s even more gorgeous, charming, and sweeter than he was back then, and I don’t trust myself not to fall for my fake husband.

Especially when I hear him say “my wife.”

Or feel his hands on my skin. Taste his kiss or see the way he looks at me with those blue eyes and know that our carefully crafted rules will shatter.

Right alongside my heart.

*****5 Absolutely Incredible Stars*****

It is absolutely no secret that Corinne Michaels is one of my favorite authors. She is one of my OG‘s. I can still tell you where I was and when it was that, I read her first book. That is how impactful her books have been on me over the last 10 years. I have loved and read every single one of her books. They have all been five star reads and have delivered such incredible, beautiful, emotional, and heartfelt stories that I have truly loved every single word of. So suffice to say, I am a big fan of her words and her characters and everything she creates.

The Whitlock family is something very special. This series has been a ride that I’ve never wanted to come to an end. These characters just love each other so much, they’ve been through so much in their lives together, and they always show up for each other and their family. There is just something very true and real and authentic about them and what they share as a family. Getting to be with them as they each find their true loves, as they fall for that one person who they are meant to be with, and as they all find that well deserved happily ever after has been, utterly incredible. And it has truly delivered the most amazing and beautiful love stories.

I have loved this series with my whole heart, and as much as I am not ready for it to end, I have to say that Corinne Michaels delivered the best ending possible in this final book. She left it all on the pages with Brynlee and Crew. She infused such heart and connection and fire into every word and breath of this book. She delivered a final story with this family and these characters that I will not soon forget. She let these characters have one last epic romance that truly delivered in every way. She also gave me one last book full of this family that have taken over my heart and owned every piece. These characters in this family in the small town are truly something special, and I was reminded of that through every single page of this book and this entire series.

Crew & Brynlee’s story had all of my favorite tropes. I am a sucker for a billionaire romance, and when you throw in second chance and marriage of convenience, you have me hook, line, and sinkered. This story was one that consumed me. It was one I could not put down. It was one that I devoured because I was so invested with these characters, their connection, and everything they shared together. I just loved being a part of their love story and getting to see the two of them find their way through a second chance that made all the difference. When I tell you there is something very special about the two of them and what they feel for each other, I mean it with my whole heart. Those two have an unadulterated level of love and connection, combined with such heart and selflessness, that shines on every single page of their story. It is beautiful and remarkable and authentic, and truly incredible getting to experience that firsthand in this book.

I have wanted Brynlee’s story is the very first book in this series. That girl is just something special. She has a heart of gold, she would do anything for anyone that needs it, and she just shows up every single time. She loves with her whole heart and is a person who deserves every good thing. And I have to say I just loved what this author delivered with her story. It was emotional and beautiful and heartfelt and just perfect for her. Brynlee deserved someone who would show up for her, fight for her, and someone who would pick her again and again. And Crew was the perfect person to do all of that and more for her. But what I think I loved the most about this story for her was that it just allowed her goodness to shine, and it allowed her to show her strength, her resiliency, and how big her heart truly was. Brynlee’s heart and love truly know no bounds, and it was beautiful getting to see that over the course of this book.

Now Crew might just be the swooniest and most genuinely amazing billionaire I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading. That man loves with his whole heart. And he is not afraid to make things right, especially when he messed them up in the first place. He spends this entire book, not only trying to get his daughter back, but also trying to get Brynlee back. He fights for her, he shows up for her, and he takes care of her and every way possible. When I tell you, this man is ready to melt your heart, be prepared to be a puddle of goo by the end of this book because he does not mince words and he will stop at nothing to show the woman he loves that he is here for her and that he will do anything for her and their family. Plus, the way he shows up for his daughter and fights like hell to keep her safe is truly everything. That man knows who and what has his priority, and you will love him for it.

These two characters really share something special together. There is an instant level of connection between them. The fire they create is truly spectacular and will have you desperate for the fireworks that they create, but more than that the love these two share is deep and real and so true. It might happen quickly, and it might be crazy to some, but it is so them and so perfect. These two fight for each other, they get each other, and they put each other back together again. Getting to go along with them as they feel what they do, as they share and experience what they do together, and as they try to make sense of the fact that what started off as something temporary is really going to be forever, is absolutely incredible and will have you loving everything you get with these two.

Trust. Me.

I really don’t even have the right amount of words to tell you how much I loved this book. I loved how these characters just completely saw each other and got each other and every way. I loved how Brynlee and Crew took the second chance they were given and just ran with it. Their relationship and their second chance might have started off with an end date, but those two can’t help but feel what they do for each other. And those feelings, and that love and that adoration they have for each other is beautiful and authentic, and so full of emotion that will consume you in the best way. Couple that with the fact that these characters could not be more right for each other, and you will just be living for every single thing you get with them. But more than that, you will just be rooting with your entire heart that these two will find their way to create the family that they were always meant to be.

And getting to go along with them through that journey and fight and through every up and down that comes their way is beautiful and mesmerizing, and just utterly unforgettable.

Now not to be outdone, but being back with this family truly made my heart so abundantly happy. This family is a cast of characters that I will always love fiercely. I have loved each and every one of their stories and getting to see this family and their dynamics and their friendships and just everything in between. I have lived it for how this author has woven it all together and brought me into the fold of yet another incredible family and a beautiful small town that feels very very special. I just have to say there’s something special about this family. Just the way they love each other and show up for each other and the dynamics of their relationships, it has been a true treasure getting that over the course of this series. And this final bit with all of them was everything I could’ve asked for. Their love and their humor, and just the way they connect with each other is on full display in the most memorable way, and it just adds another incredible layer to this already amazing story.

And I have to say that, as sad as I am knowing that this is the last full book in this series, I also know this isn’t goodbye because all of these characters will show up in some way, shape, or form in another book because that is what Corinne Michaels continues to create with her characters. (And it’s truly the best!) It’s never truly goodbye because they all connect in some way and I just look forward to more and more time with all of them. There is truly something special about this town and this family and these characters and what they have given over the course of this series and that is a true testament to what this author has created that, I felt and got all of this. Corinne Michaels infuses such heart and emotion and realness this and series. She put it all into this series and into these characters and what they share, and it is unforgettable. These characters and this family love each other, show up for each other, and fight like hell for one another, and it has been a true pleasure getting all of their stories.

Forgotten Desires is a second chance romance that will show you that anything is possible with the right person. This book will melt your heart, it will have you feeling all of the feels, and it will show you that there is something very special with what Crew and Brynlee share together. Those two will show you that true love and a heart of gold can conquer anything, and that the one person who matters will always show up to fight for you.

I loved every single second of this romance book, and I know that you will too. This is definitely one of my top reads of the year and it definitely exemplifies the idea that if he wanted to, he would. And let me tell you, Crew wants everything with Brynlee and he is ready to show up and fight for her in every way that matters. Getting to experience what you do with these characters will melt you, will give you all of the feels and love, and will show you that these two were meant to find their way back to one another. You will just love every bit of what you get with them, and I have no doubt that you will fall head over heels and love with what these characters share, what they give you, and how they continually show up for one another in this book.

What you get with these characters in Forgotten Desires is romantic, emotional, genuine, and heartfelt in every way. There is truly something extra special about this series, this world, and what these characters deliver and give you with their whole hearts. Trust me when I say that you will not soon forget what you experience with Brynlee & Crew, the Whitlock family, and this small town of fantastic characters. This is definitely one of my favorite series for a reason, and I truly cannot have asked for a better conclusion and sendoff for them. Corrine Michaels truly delivers everything in this final book and it is beautiful and genuine and incredible in every way.

Forgotten Desires was an absolutely amazing and consuming love story that I know I will not soon forget. It brought the feels and the heart and the swoon and fire, but more than that, it brought a second chance romance of two characters that were so beyond meant to be. Two characters with hearts of gold who deserve every good thing. Brynlee and Crew’s story will give you it all and then some, and I promise you that you will love getting to see these characters, put their hearts on the line and fight for each other because it is truly everything.

Everything and then some.

Cora Rhodes

My new neighbor is the worst.

When they say to keep your friends close, but your enemies closer, I don’t think they meant that literally, as in next door neighbor close. However, here we are and after our horrible and unfortunate introduction, there’s only one solution . . . to declare war. It’s his side of the mountain versus mine. It doesn’t matter that my new neighbor is ridiculously handsome, because his personality is lacking. He’s rude, arrogant, and condescending, and regardless of how hard he tries, no one is going to get in my way or push me out. I need this more than anyone knows, because sometimes what people forget or choose to overlook, is not all that glitters is gold.

Briggs Warren

My new neighbor has got to go.

After purchasing Red Barn Orchard five years ago, I know a thing or two about living on the mountain. I also know that this is no place for a rich, New York City socialite who also happens to be a music superstar. If she wanted a vacation home, she should have chosen one on the lake in Horizons Valley, not here, where there’s no one around. No one except me that is. I don’t need this, I definitely don’t need her, and based on the prank she’s pulled, we’ve declared war. The problem is, I find her stunningly beautiful, witty, funny, and when she plays her cello and the music floats across the mountain, it feels like she’s speaking to my soul. Is it possible to love the thing you hate, or should I say person, because as the months pass and summer turns into fall, this game we’re playing, I’m starting to think winning might mean less about her leaving and more about something different after all.

Gold Horizons is a standalone story in the small town series, Horizons Valley. If you love city girl moves to a small town, next door neighbors, endless pranks, enemies to friends to lovers, and grumpy sunshine, then you’re going to love Briggs and Cora’s story.

5 Absolutely Incredible Stars

Gold Horizons by Kathryn Andrews is one of my favorite romance reads this year! This book had it all…and boy was I smitten with everything I got in this book. In every way possible.

Enemies to lovers? Check. 

Grumpy sunshine romance? Check. 

The most fantastic prank war between two neighbors? Check. 

Small town romance goodness with a city girl and a mountain man guy? Check, Check. 

Two amazing and incredible characters that will completely steal and melt your heart? Check, Check, Check! 

Gold Horizons is the story of two seemingly opposite people going from enemies to friends to lovers to something so much more as they realize that the one person who drives them utterly crazy, might just be the one person they’ve always needed. 

This is a story of two people connecting on such a real and honest level that will touch every part of their hearts and yours. It’s a story of two people seeing each other, and I mean really seeing each other, in the most raw and true way. This is a story of two dynamic characters peeling back each other’s layers to discover their vulnerabilities, and not only loving what they find, but basking in what they give one another. This is a story of two people pushing every button the other one has and loving every memorable, effervescent, and vibrant moment of it. This is a story of two people falling for one another in the most real, heartfelt, and true way that will melt and own your heart from start to finish. 

Suffice to say, I loved everything about Gold Horizons and what I got with Cora and Briggs. 

Those two are truly the best. And trust me when I say that those two are something very special. From the very first words of their story, I was hooked. I was hooked on them, their fiery and vibrant connection, and everything they made each other feel. I was also exponentially hooked on the way those two managed to push every button they both had, the glorious banter they shared, all while simultaneously driving each other crazy and breaking down every wall they had carefully constructed around themselves in the best way. Simply put, I was hooked on them and everything they shared. 

These two have the most memorable first meeting, and the sparks just keep flying from there with every turn of the page in this incredible book. Kathryn Andrews carefully and thoughtfully crafts their story in a way that allows you to connect with them, allows you to feel and live and experience it all with them, and in a way that just sears you to them in a way that you will be rooting for them both through it all. There is just something truly special about Brooks, Cora, and what they share together and make each other feel. It feels right. It feels beautiful. It feels like exactly what both of them need. It feels like more…and that more with them is everything. 

What I loved about Gold Horizons, and what I love about every book by Kathryn Andrews, is that she just allows you to connect so deeply and truly to Brooks and Cora and every character she creates. She just lets you see them, get them, and understand them in every way. She makes you believe in them and want every good thing for them. She invests you in them and all that could be. She allows you through her writing to connect to them in such a real and genuine way, and that makes reading their story everything to experience. It just makes everything more memorable, more beautiful, and just more enjoyable because you’re not just reading the book and seeing the characters end up where they do, you’re living the story with them and feeling every bit of their journey to one another…and it’s just the best. 

Cora Rhodes is a gem of a character. She is fierce. She is independent. She is remarkable in so many ways. She has a heart of gold and is looking for her happy place where she can truly be herself. She is a woman who is beautiful inside and out in every way. What I loved about her character was that she was just so genuinely good. I also just loved that she was easy to relate to because like many of us, she too was just trying to find her place in the world and make sense of a very complicated relationship with her family and life. She might be a well known musician, she may come from very wealthy society, but at the end of the day she is a very real person just trying to figure out who she really is, who she wants to be, and who is deserving of being in her life and her heart. I just loved her, fiercely, unequivocally, and in every way possible. She is truly the best, and getting to connect with her over the course of the story was absolutely phenomenal. 

Now Briggs Warren might have stolen my heart from the very first moment his grumpy self made a seriously memorable appearance on the pages of Gold Horizons. That man is the definition of a grumpy mountain man who has a lot of layers and a whole lot of love to give under his somewhat gruff exterior. He is determined and very very stubborn. He is also a genuinely good guy who would do anything for those he cares about and his small town that he calls home. That man may come off grumpy and a touch (aka a lot!) hard headed, but he is also fierce in his feelings and cares with his whole heart. What I loved about Briggs is that he was so dynamic and headstrong, but underneath those layers he was also so vulnerable and had experienced his own struggles. I loved getting the chance to peel back each layer, along with Cora, while reading this story. I also just loved getting to love him. That man is wonderful and I can totally understand why Cora wants to simultaneously slap him silly and climb him like a tree.

Trust me when I say that you will love Cora and Briggs and everything they so unforgettably give you in Gold Horizons. 

Those two definitely make each other, and you, work for it, but in the absolute best way. They exemplify the idea that the one who drives you the most crazy, might just be the exact person you need to heal your heart and give you everything you didn’t think was possible. Those two work hard in this book and in their journey together to trust each other and themselves, to put the past officially in the past and break away from the expectations that try to hold them down, and to find a way to open their hearts to the possibilities of what could be. They do all of this and more while sweeping you and your heart off your feet, as they push each other’s buttons, as they feel their fierce and fiery connection to one another, and as they fall oh so hard for each other. 

Gold Horizons is  truly one of the best romances I have read this year. It has it all and more. It was romantic. It was funny. It was fiery and full of so much connection. It was memorable and consuming. It was small town romance goodness with such dynamic and memorable characters. It was just a story that I could not put down, that I loved every single word of, and that I just loved reading and experiencing. 

This book was everything and more, and Kathryn Andrews once again blew me away with what she delivered with these characters and their story. 

Her writing is absolutely incredible and allows you to just fully live this story with Cora and Briggs. That writing is what has made me a fan of hers since her very first book released 10 years ago. She just has such a way with words, a way of allowing you to be in the moments she creates with her characters, and a way of enveloping you within the magic and beauty of what her characters are and what they share. Reading her words and experiencing what she so thoughtfully and beautifully weaves together in her books is something I truly look forward to and treasure. There is just something so special and memorable about what she creates and allows you to get with her stories and characters, and Gold Horizons was no different. In fact, I think this book is Kathryn Andrews at her best. This book and what she creates within it with Cora and Briggs is vibrant, effervescent, romantic, memorable, and just absolutely enjoyable in every way. 

I truly could not have asked for more than what I got within this book and with Cora and Briggs. 

Kathryn Andrews creates and delivers everything with the two of them in the most authentic and amazing way that I and my heart will not soon forget. She thoughtfully weaves together a story of enemies, friends, a very special mountain location, pranks, love, and all the possibilities that can come from taking a chance with the one person who drives you just a bit, or a lot, crazy. She does all of that and more in this phenomenal book. She leaves all the heart and emotion on the pages of this book with these characters, and I truly could not have asked for a better conclusion to my time in Horizons Valley. This place and the people who live and fall in love there are truly something special, and you will feel that in this book, and in every other book of this series. 

Trust me.

This book, this entire series, and all of these very special characters will own your heart from the very first moment you meet them, and you will love every bit of what you get with them. You journey with them, you feel and live it all with them, you root for them with your whole heart, you believe in them, and in the end, I promise you will not be disappointed with what they so beautifully give you. Not one little bit. 

Trust me when I say that this whole series, but especially this book and Cora and Briggs, will give you it all. Those two will have you believing in the magic, possibilities, and beauty of taking a chance on the one person you didn’t even know you needed and the one person who makes you feel everything. And getting that with them along with everything else in their incredible story? Well that is truly the best in every way possible.
