Second chance romance

Meredith Wild is an author that I enjoy reading. She creates likable characters which is something I want in my romances.
June and Kase were likable but they and their fathers all seemed to have too many past secrets. That's a real draw for some readers but just got to be a bit too much for me.
I received an Advance Reader copy from NetGalley.

June Bell and Kase McCasker have their first kiss just before he goes off to college. she has not seen or heard from him since but that hasn't dulled her feelings for him. Now he's back in town.

Kase McCasker was dealt a horrible blow just before leaving for college four years ago. Everything he believed to be true, turned out to be lies. He needs to get away!

June however has never left the small town of Falls Edge and works in the hotel her daddy owns. A hotel that could easily be expanded if the McCaskers will just sell their land!

The relationship between June and Kase develops very quickly, if four years can be considered quick! A deal is struck to ensure the sale of the land but a mutual desire soon takes the focus of both June and Kase. But hey, this is romance, does anything ever go completely smoothly? Absolutely not!

There are misunderstandings, lies of omission and hurt feelings as one would expect.

This was a quick, fairly pleasurable read. There is nothing to dislike about these young lovers. The story line is simple and isn't at all taxing to read. Definitely a good way to spend a wet Saturday afternoon to help decompress from the stress of the working week.

Meredith has written such a fun and romantic journey. Kase and June had me from beginig to the end of the book.It’s been years since June Bell shared a stolen moment with her girlhood crush, Kase McCasker. It’s been just as long since Kase’s father nixed the sale of the McCasker farm to expand the grounds of the Bell’s grand hotel. Now that Kase is back home for good, June might be the only person who can persuade him to reconsider the abandoned plan. Four years ago, unexpected news shook the foundation of Kase McCasker’s world. Escaping Falls Edge for college was the perfect excuse to chase his demons and bury his pain. Now, with a degree in hand and a void he can’t fill, he’s back in the little mountain town he thought he’d never call home again. The book is amazing.This is difrent from the book Meredith writes.When I started reading I couldn't put it down.Keep up the magnifysent work.

I just loved this one, the whole second chance at love is my favorite type of read. It was a quick paced read, written very well and I loved the characters. It has just enough angst to keep you on your toes and wanting to see what happens. The chemistry between Kase and June was undeniably hot. I can't wait for more.

When Kase comes back home after being away at college for four years, he's ready to face the painful secret that sent him running away from the only place he'd ever called home. And the only girl he'd ever felt a connection with, June. He soon discovered that the beautiful girl he remembered grew into a beautiful woman who didn't pull her punches. She didn't pretend she wasn't hurt by his abrupt departure and failure to say goodbye. Maybe he would have to try another approach, buying himself some time to convince her how things look from his side. Time to soften her anger and her heart. Will his gamble pay off? Will he get another chance with her?

Misadventures of a Virgin is a breathtaking mix of sexy, sweet, sassy and everything else that makes a romance worth the time it takes to read. Ms Wild has once again proved that any romance worth it’s salt, has drama, angst, depth and passion, and a storyline that pulls the reader in and doesn’t let go even after the last page is read.

Kase McCasker and June Bell's story is impeccable! A woman who is no ones country bumpkin, June is all for standing tall and going blow for blow in the passion stakes with the breathtaking and bad-arse Kase. Their connection is explosive and the intensity of their attraction is nothing short of an inferno.

I loved both of these characters and the storyline was so wonderfully written, it was easy to devour in one sitting. Thank you again Ms wild, for providing a fabulous book for our reading enjoyment.

I had never read anything by Meredith Wild before the Misadventures series. These are great books. I would put them into the contemporary romance category. They have twists to keep you on your toes and a great happily ever after! This book did not disappoint. Ms. Wild is an excellent storyteller, and I find myself have warm feelings for the characters. This book was a quick read, but the story was complete. I can't wait for the next one.

This was a solid entry in the Misadventure series telling the story of Kase and June who have had feelings for one another since high school but never really acted on them. But now that Kase is back in town, he is not missing a chance to finally let his feelings for June come out. Of course, what would a romance novel be without a little conflict. The conflict in this case is the fact that their respective fathers have been feuding for years and now this relationship is making things even worse.
Plenty of very steamy scenes make this an enjoyable read, I'm looking forward to more in the Misadventure series.

I voluntarily read an ARC of this novel.

I was pulled and wanted to know what the story of June and Kase. As I was reading, I could not figure out what was going to happen next. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I finished this book in a day and loved it. But felt like it was to short, that it was rushed in some places and I would have loved it to be drawn out longer. But overall I would give this book a 3.5 stars (but gave it a 4).. It was a good read, but at some point I felt like it was lacking and there could have been more.

Kase is one hot alpha farmer. He knows what he wants and goes after it. June is one smart woman. She has wanted Kase for a really long time. They make for one hot complicated couple. Could not wait to see where the story would go. So glad everything happened the way it did. Amazing ending to an amazing couples story. Must read.

**more to come soon, service cutting out While not my favorite in the Misadventures series/grouping, this was good. A little slow to start but picked up. If you are expecting a deep, involved plot this isn't it. If you want a quick, enjoyable read, then you have a perfect fit!

Misadventures of a Virgin was an absolutely fun and romantic read. June is a quick witted, smart mouthed strong woman. Kase is the sexy, dominant who yearns after June. When these young lovers get together the story ignites just like their passion. A must read!

<b>2.5 Stars!</b>

I love second chance romances and after reading the blurb I was even more excited to read this book.
Sadly, this one did not meet my expectations.

A heated kiss with her childhood crush and then his unexplained disappearing act for years after leaves June behind to the only life she's ever known - working for the family hotel business.

Hoping to revisit the deal that fell through because of the long-lived feud between the two families (June and Kase's) leads to one very interesting negotiation process.

This already had alarm bells going off in my head, it was odd to say the least, that her father would agree to such a deal. Or that she would.

About the second chance romance, there wasn't end the first time to have me believe there was something to build on.
I know this leans more erotica but still I wanted to see an attraction and compatibility beyond the physical aspects.
The characters themselves felt bland to me.

The twist in the story was a little more interesting and grabbed my attention back until it was resolved.

This was a fast, steamy read with nice imagery but I just couldn't connect with the characters.

4++ stars.
This was another really big hit for me, I had just finished reading book #5 Misadventures of the First Daughter prior to this one. They were both Meredith Wild releases and I am now officially a big fan of this author.
This had it all for me from the story to the characters. I loved, loved, loved it.
Sweet and tender story of forbidden love and second chances with just the right amount of spice and heat. Kase and June were simply perfect.

ARC received in exchange for an honest review.

Anytime Meredith Wild puts pen to paper, you can rest assured there will be some heat. Misadventures of A Virgin was a hot, sexy read with a smidgen of angst. I laughed out loud in one section while fanning myself in another. The connection between the character was evident, and the way that evidence comes to the forefront makes this story of all the five stars I give it!

Read this book as part of ARC on Netgalley

As usual Meredith Wild hasn't disappointed. The story of June and Kase is so believable, 2 families at odds with one another like the Hatfield's and McCoy but they find a way to flourish their love while bringing closure to the war. I just loved it, you will not be able to put this book down.

A sweet story about first love, second chances and a family secret that one particular father doesn't want to let go of. June Bell has been infatuated with Kase McCasker pretty much all her life, after a stolen kiss one night he disappears out of her life for 4 years. Now he’s back and he's ready to save his farm and stake his claim on June. The problem is, the huge family feud with their ‘fathers’. June has no idea why they hate each other, but when her father makes a deal to buy the McCasker farm, June has no choice but to be a pawn in their game. Wonderful writing and characters, with an addictively sweet storyline that had me hooked. Don't let the fact that I called this a sweet story fool you, yes it is sweet, very much so, but in the mix there is a whole lot of dirty, the chemistry between June and Kase is off the charts hot, what an explosive couple they are, and not always in the bedroom. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
