Insatiable: A Cloverleigh Farms Standalone Paperback – Import, 6 November 2019

Good romsnce

ALL THE FEELS.That is all coming to my mind after finishing Insatiable by Melanie Harlow. This small town romance with an epic friends to lover story is simply beautiful and absolutely adorable. And the steam and passion increases the attraction of this story so much!Noah and Meg has been friends forever. Though they live a completely separate lives now, their connection never cut. Noah is the beloved and respected cop at the small town which is the home town of Meg. Meg left Cloverleigh Farm to pursue her career and she has achieved so much. But her personal life is a failure. So she decides on impulse to visit her town for an extended time. And she reconnects with Noah. Now Noah's life is a mess and he carries a heavy emotional baggage. They cannot deny this explosive chemistry and decides to have fun. But the casual sex turns into so much more. But Meg lives in big city for her highly demanding job and Noah has chains tying him in the town.I loved the sweetest romantic moments and hottest passion fuelled moments equally. Noah is the perfect man. His plate is full right now. His mother grieving his father's death. His brother with special abilities struggling every day. His own guilt and heartbreak eating him alive every single day. My heart was aching to soothe his vulnerable heart. He is so much obsessed with his worthlessness and determined that he does not deserve a chance at his own HEA. And it's so intense and overwhelming that he ended up pushing Meg even if she is the best thing happening to him. Meg has own issues and she thinks no one will fight for her. This smart, confident, compassionate and sweetheart of a woman falls hard for Noah. Because who can resist this gorgeous, protective and caring man with a golden heart. I loved the sizzling hot chemistry between them. It has the edge of slow burn with push and pull. The angsty emotions were killing me as Meg and Noah worked out their issues.Insatiable by Melanie Harlow is all about taking chance and risks for romance. Meg and Noah had so many obstacles and indecisions in their love sick hearts but once they went all in, love did all the work for them. A sweet, sexy, intense and swoonworthy love story you cannot miss.Received ARC for Honest review

4.5 “Twinkie” “seventeen years” “slay a dragon” “Sawyer” KissesGoodness gracious – does it get any better than the Sawyer Sisters?!?!? I mean…I know it doesn’t…this series is absolutely stealing my heart and I’m alllll about it! I love everything that Melanie is doing with these characters and I just cannot help but smile with every word I read. So Insatiable is the third book in the Cloverleigh Farms Series, each book is a complete standalone but the books do build on each other - like in Insatiable we get to see the wedding of Frannie and Mac, the couple from the first book, Irresistible . So while it’s not a complete deal breaker if you don’t read the other books from the series…but it definitely adds to the enjoyment IMHO if you have read Irresistible and Undeniable …plus they’re amazing books and I love these sisters to bits and want everyone to read and enjoy them!Meg Sawyer…my little workaholic…I’m really proud of the journey and change that Meg went through in the course of Insatiable. It was good...I mean “all work and no play makes Meg a dull girl” and all that, but aside from that…she needed to find her person. I loved seeing her open up and realize things about herself that she had kind of pushed away or ignored for the sake of her career or becoming who she thought she wanted to. Having her come home, seeing her reconnect with Noah and her sisters, it was an eye opener…and I loved everything that it did for Meg. It not only made her happy but it gave her confidence and bravery and so many other things and I loved that all she had to do to experience that was to come home…‘Don’t think about her. Don’t think about her. Don’t think about her.But she was like gravity — no matter what I did, I couldn’t fight the physical pull of her. I was never going to win.’Deputy Noah McCormick…could this man be anymore perfect?!?! Could he???? I haven’t done this in a while but darn it…Noah has earned a top ten list of all the absolutely amazing things about him!1.) He’s a dedicated cop – and I love that it’s a family thing (his dad was the Sheriff)2.) He’s a veteran – gotta love a man who served his country3.) He’s a loving son – I loved his relationship with his mother4.) He’s a great brother – seeing him pick on his pregnant sister made me laugh and help take care of his disabled twin brother warmed my heart5.) He’s a dog dad6.) He’s an amazing friend7.) He’s TDH (tall, dark and handsome) – with the scruff and the arms and just yum!8.) He’s got such a kind heart – the guy is a big ol’ softie!9.) He’s kinky! ;-)10.) He’s a good guy - the guy doesn’t have a bad bone in his body and he really does like helping people and being there for the ones he loves.I could probably go on for days listing all the amazing things about Noah...he’s just one of those guys. Does he have his faults? Absolutely…he’s not perfect – for example, he has a temper (something I can relate to) but I didn’t hold it against him. Because I understood what he was going through and where the anger was coming from. He’s truly a great guy and it was pretty much impossible to not love everything about him.‘“Eff what I said I’m not afraid.” I looked down at her. “Are you?”“No.” Her denim - clad legs twined around me and she lifted her lips to mine. “I want you. I want this. Please don’t stop.”She didn’t have to tell me twice.’Meg and Noah have my all time kryptonite – HISTORY!!!! I looooove a couple with history and Meg and Noah’s history goes back to when they were teenagers. It’s pure and amazing and the little brief bits we get of their past was everything I could have ever dreamed of – I wish we could have had more…even some flashbacks - gah! So I was already half in love with them before romance was even in the picture…I mean they’re basically besties, they don’t necessarily talk every day but they are staples in each other’s life. I love that they could go weeks without talking but it didn’t change the bond they had or the strength in their connection. Taking it to the next level was only natural…of course there is a little bit of fear mixed in, the possibility of ruining something that they treasure so much, but what good thing isn’t worth a little bit of risk – go big or go home! I did kind of wish they had had a little bit more time together, time for things to build – I get why it was a little quick for the purposes of the flow of the story, but a few extra days would have been nice. There was nothing not to love about Meg and Noah’s relationship…their chemistry was off the charts, you could clearly see how much they cared about each other and they just fit so perfectly…it was everything I ever needed.‘We could kiss, we could touch, we could f___. We could make each other scratch and bite, sigh and moan. We could act out our fantasies, whisper dirty words in the dark, and make each other come all night long.But we couldn’t love each other.Not like that.’Melanie Harlow continues to make my heart explode with her amazing stories. There is a reason why Melanie is (and continues to remain) a must read author for me…because I can fully rely on her providing me with solid, good quality romances that just flat our make me happy. I know that sounds basic and simple…but sometimes it’s exactly what I need. Sometimes I want complicated…sometimes I want over the top angst…sometimes I want drama out the wazoo – and there is nothing wrong with any of that. But sometimes I just want good…well written…simple romance…with a lot of heart and amazing characters to fall in love with and that’s what Melanie gives me. Could it be classified as predictable? Sure…do I care? Nope. Do I care that it might get a tad cheesy at times – not at all…cause it doesn’t matter to me, I’m too far gone at that point. Melanie has always delivered characters that I fall hopelessly in love with and with each book she adds to the Cloverleigh Farms Series, I just fall more and more. I’m loving what she is doing with these sisters and I am seriously so excited to see what will come with the rest of the books.“Oh, Noah.” I shivered, but I wasn’t cold anymore. “I did want you.”“Let me tell you what I want.” He spoke quietly but forcefully. “I want the chance to make you happy. I want to be the only one you’ll ever love. And I will fight like h___ every single day of my life to deserve it.”“Really?”“Really.” He pressed his lips to my forehead. “I love you, Meg. I want to be your hero again.”The way everything fell together at the end was picture-perfect…so perfectly crafted for Meg and Noah and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face for one second. It was more than I could have hoped for and I loved it so much – even just thinking about it makes me wanna burst with happiness and rainbows and unicorns. I also love the lead in to the next book in the Cloverleigh Farms Series… Unbreakable ! It’s the oldest daughter’s turn – Sylvia and we got a brief glimpse at Henry and I’m so ready for these two to get their HEA! They definitely deserve it…especially Sylvia. #TakeMeBackToCloverleighFarms

Der dritte Teil der Cloverleight Farms Reihe erzählt die Geschichte von Meg und Noah. Beide kennen sich schon seit Ewigkeiten, haben aber ihre Gefühle zueinander nie öffentlich gemacht. Während Meg nach Washington gegangen ist um als Anwältin sich für die Gerechtigkeit einzusetzen, war Noah erst beim Militär um dann bei der örtlichen Polizei anzufangen.Für die Hochzeit ihrer kleinen Schwester kommt sie zurück, und die Leidenschaft zwischen ihr und Noah entbrennt. Auch wenn es eigentlich nur eine kurzweilige Affäre sein soll, sind immer noch die Gefühle füreinander da. Aber eigentlich will Noah keine Beziehung, weil er es als seine Pflicht sieht, sich um seinen Bruder zu kümmern, der an einer Zerebralparase leidet und irgendwann auch mehr auf Hilfe angewiesen ist. Daher ist er der Überzeugung, dass niemand anderes solch eine "Bürde" mit aufgelegt werden sollte sich um seinen Bruder zu kümmern.Tja aber Gefühle lassen sich in den wenigsten Fällen steuern und Meg setzt alles daran, Noah vom Gegenteil zu überzeugen.Wieder ein schöner Ausflug nach Cloverleight Farms. Kurzweilig, gefühlvoll und unterhaltsam. Jede der Schwestern ist besonders und es macht immer wieder aufs Neue Spaß eine neue Geschichte von ihnen zu entdecken.

This book was amazing! I get the best kind of feelings from Melanie's books and this one was no different. They make me happy and keep me wanting more. I loved Meg and Noah together, they have this bond that everyone should envy. It was an easy relationship for them, they just clicked and I enjoyed every minute of their friendship turned into something more. My heart felt everything when things didn't go as planned and it was an emotional ride wondering how everything was going to go. I absolutely adored this book and all of it's characters! I can't wait to read Sylvia's story in Unbreakable!

Another Cloverleigh winner. I loved Noah and Meg. Their friendly banter and care for each other was heartwarming and enjoyable to read. Everyone needs a friendship like that one. It was great to visit with the other sisters and to get the continuation of Frankie and Mack with their wedding. The dialogue and interactions between all the siblings was fun, real and made me want to stay in this world for longer.If you have this on your kindle then go for it... if you haven’t then I strongly recommend you one click....
