This book was great, I read it in one day because I couldn't put it down. This is a new-to-me author, and the first book I've read of hers. Won't be the last!

This is the first book that I read from the series and from reading it we can see that Oliver and Meghan had already started their fling in one of the previous books. Although there is POV from both Oliver and Meghan I got the feeling it was all about Meghan. The story is emotionally and for me too much like drama, at first, we see a little wowing a little romance but more or less was for me just Meghan struggle with cancer. It also for me opened up questions like if she knew that there could be relapses why didn't she frozen her eggs for the future. And her stubbornness was also sad because she pushed people away from the one that cared about her. Oliver was ok, we could see his love toward Meghan from the start and he really did his best to show how much she meant to him. What I love in the book is that brings me smile on the face and that I can connect with the characters, this one just didn't do that for me.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for Netgelly.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Finding Love Series. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First time reading this author. This was a bit depressing, but is realistic, and does have a happy ending. I didn't particularly care for Meghan, I thought she was a bit whinny. But I have never had cancer, so I can't say that I wouldn't behave the same way. She has great friends that call her on her deal-which we all need. Overall a good read. I rate it a 3.5. I think a lot of romance readers would enjoy.

DNF at 6%.
The last thing Meghan Crosby expected was to come back from Las Vegas married, especially to him. The one person she’d been doing her best to avoid. Meghan knows firsthand how life can change in the blink of an eye so she never planned on getting married. Too bad drunk Meghan had other plans.

Oliver Brooks knows it’s going to be a struggle to convince his new wife to give their marriage a shot. His stubborn wife has stolen his heart and he has no idea how to get into hers. She’s letting something stand in the way of their future and keeps pushing him away. Good thing he’s not one to back down from a challenge.,/blockquote>

I think this was my mistake. I was expecting a surprise Vegas wedding followed by the groom trying to persuade the bride that they could make it work. Whereas what this seemed to be (from the admittedly small part I read) was two people desperately in love where the woman refused to get married. I just wasn't engaged with the characters or the plot.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.

I have to say this book leaves me searching for words. It was okay. It was predictable. It was ...

As a person touched by the big C, I felt a tie to the experience but not to the words or characters. There isn't an emotional tie to either. I had a hard time not skimming the words.

Speechless has potential and I was intrigued by the blurb but I am sad to say it fell flat for me.

I love this type of trope - Accidental Married! This book was great, I read it in one day because I couldn't put it down. I really liked Meghan and Oliver.
This is a new-to-me author, and the first book I've read of hers. After I finished this one, I went back and read the first one Restless - Savannah and Gabriel's story. I didn't read book 2 yet Powerless - Finley and Liam's story, but it is for sure on my TBR Shelf! I will say this though, I found it hard to follow Speechless in the beginning, as none of the characters/places were really described because they were already introduced in the first book. So I wouldn't call this one a total stand-alone, as all the characters cross-over from the first book.

"Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of this book, in exchange for an honest review."

Loved this book very much. It had just enough sweet romance and the storyline was great! I highly recommend!

I enjoyed this book, however it felt very rushed. I think I need a good 10 more chapters dispersed throughout the book to fill less rushed. I did start to connect with the characters so that was good.

Oliver Brooks has been trying to take his relationship with Meghan Crosby to the next level. However, Meghan's life experiences have made her a live in the now kind of woman, one who never intended on settling down. On the other hand, Oliver has every intention of doing just that. The question is whether or not he can win Meghan over before she shuts him out completely.

After a weekend in Vegas with friends, the very drunk couple end up getting married. This may just give Oliver the chance to win her over. He hatches a plan that Meghan, albeit a bit reluctantly, agrees to.

When approaching Speechless, I anticipated a light-hearted romance, instead, it quickly became heart-wrenching! Paris Hansen does a fantastic job with her characters and their angst. Although this is the third in the Finding Love series, it does quite well as a standalone. Even so, I already downloaded the first two and will go back and read them at another time.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Weapenry Co-op for this book to review.
