This is the first book I have read by this talented author, and it definitely won’t be the last one.
Yes, it’s a story about TJ Garner, son, and CEO of a sporting empire, and Deb Bennett, the on again, off again girlfriend of his younger brother, but it’s more than that.
Intertwined in the well developed and engaging plot and story of this couple , we get a story about family, honor , dedication doing the right thing, opportunities, responsibilities and of course love.
The author’s description not only of the town and the slopes but also of the all the characters and their interaction, draws you into the storyline and you feel that you are actually there with them.
My only regret is that I missed book one since even though it’s a stand alone, we get to know there must have been a good story to tell about Colt and Delaney.
Definitely an author to add to my list of favorites.
I was gifted a copy of this book by Netgalley. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

I’ll admit that as good as the description of Want You sounded, I had my reservations about the whole brothers sharing a girl thing. But pretty early on you, as the reader, get the right end of the stick while TJ and the whole damn town have it all twisted up in their heads.
Deb has been in an on-again off-again relationship with the Garner baby of the family, Win. But it was never some grand love story, it was two friends, two people who shared a lack of ambition…seemingly. But her heart really belonged to the responsible older brother, TJ. It is this tie, this bond, that is the jumping off p oint for Want You.
I really liked this story. A lot! Deb and TJ were great and frustrating. They were strong and awkward, a little ridiculous at times and did I mention frustrating? But despite that, they were a fun time. The story didn’t need to be as long as it was, but for the most part it was nonstop enjoyment.
I loved the small town vibe and the real world problems that existed. This isn’t your fairytale billionaire romance, nope, this is two people with real world problems who manage to find something great while dealing with them. All of them. Stacy Finz could have turned this story into an angst-fest and I am truly grateful that she didn’t.
The tone of the story was perfect for what it was, and the addition of Win’s drama just gave the story more depth. And extra points to Finz for not going the obvious route after Win’s drama played out. I’ve read a few stories by this author and she does small towns and everyday life…beautifully.
I can’t wait to read Win’s story next!

'Want You' is another great addition to The Garner Brothers series by Stacy Finz. The characters are extremely likeable and well written. The unfolding of Deb and TJ's romance is touching and Win's side story was intense. I do always skip over the graphic sex, which for me detracts from the heartwarming love story. When I skip, it's about as good of a romance as there can be.

More please! I have truly enjoyed the Garner Brothers, books. TJ's story is a great addition.

TJ Garner has always been smitten by Deb and vice versa and BOTH kept it to themselves. Deb always thought TJ was out of reach so she settled for his immature younger brother Win and they have been off/on for several years.

When Deb is down on her luck because she supports her parents and she is in debt, TJ offers her a job and we go from there. Deb finally gets a chance to change her life and with the brother she always wanted.

I really like the small town atmosphere and the banter between the Garner brothers. There were some slow bits but overall a very good story. It can be tricky, a love story when there are brothers involved. But the author did a good job. If you like small town-stories about hot brothers: this is it!

I am a big fan of Stacy Finz and this story did not disappoint. I started it and did not put it down until 3 in the morning when I finished it. Stacy's characters are wonderful to me because they seem real with emotions we all deal with and not all is glitz and glamour. I do not do a synopsis of the book or tell what the story is about as I do not like those types of reviews. I do not need someone to re-tell the story to me. That is like the person that tells you what happens in a movie and what is the point of that except to spoil it for the other person. I will say this is a great addition to this series and I am eagerly looking forward to Stacy's book. Do yourself a favor and get this book!
