Noah by Melody Anne is book Two in the Anderson Billionaires Series. This is the story of Sarah Jennings and Noah Anderson. I have read the previous book which did add to my enjoyment of this one, but I did feel you could make this a standalone book. Noah and his brother inherited a lot of money which they are using some of it toward a veterans center. Noah and Sarah are working together on the project but they are in a friends with benefit relationship too. Both have commitment issues along with other personal issues that hold them back from being more. There isn't much drama in their story. Joseph our matchmaker has his work cut out for him. Enjoyed their story.

Really enjoyed this sexy, fun and action packed romantic adventure filled with engaging charters, witty dialog, heart racing twists, well intentioned family and undeniable passion. A great read overall and highly entertaining journey.

I was a little disappointed at the lack of drama in this story. Every time I expected something big to happen, it just kind of faded away. The story is a good one with two determined characters and I think it could have been even better with a few more surprises.

This is the next in the series of Anderson siblings who find themselves with $$ and possibilities from an uncle and family that they did not know growing up without a father. Each one of them is being pushed into a relationship by that meddling uncle and sometimes it’s pretty fun to see what happens! You’ll always get the HEA you expect!

I received an ARC from the publisher through NetGalley for an honest and unbiased review. No compensation was promised or provided for the review.

Noah is Book 2 in Melody Anne's Anderson Billionaires series. I really enjoyed the first book so I couldn't wait to dig in. Very well written but I struggled to connect with the characters. I felt like I was being told their story rather than the story coming to life and pulling me in. With that said though, I did enjoy revisiting with past characters in the series!

This story did not do anything for me. I felt the protagonists had no chemistry and much like Noah tries to win Sarah over by doing the little trips the story and romance feels very forced. To boot I was a little lost in the beginning with the car accident and Sarah's near miss with death. Did the author plan a paranormal element and then change her mind?
When did Sarah and Noah first meet and fall in love? it's unclear but then Sarah is in retreat and Noah is in pursuit with encouragement from his siblings and their significant others. The story seems to be a series of interludes that I found very hard to connect with. I actually abandoned the book mid way through and forced myself to finish because I feel guilty when I get an ARC if I don't publish my views on the story.
Not one of the author's best books and definitely not one of my favorites.

Tough one to review. I did enjoy it. It's a fun easy read that brings me all the joy the rest of the Anderson stories have. The problem I had was the connection, or lack of connection I felt between Noah and Sarah. Still reading this book was an entertaining way of spending a relaxing afternoon so based on that I would recommend.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I love Joseph Anderson and he is such a little sneak as he tries to match up his family with HEA's! This time it is Noah and Sarah and their story is so painful at times. They both are leery of getting close to another and yet they keep falling closer and closer to each other until they realize that they have fallen in love.

This time, it is not one who is reluctant to pursue more than a one night relationship but they both are resisting! I guess if the road to their HEA was easy then they would not treasure their love or appreciate what they have.

At times, it was painful when one would pull away and you just didn't see how they could get back together!

It was great that Noah and his brothers are so close and they can encourage and harass each other!!

Can't wait to see Brandon and Chloe's book - they seem like they are even close to wanting a relationship or love.

Noah has a history in the Navy so when his Uncle wants his help to design a center for veterans, he can’t say no. He has been working on the project with Sarah and a casual relationship between them develops however when they are in a car accident rather than it bringing them closer they both use it to put a further distance between them.

Months later circumstances and a matchmaking uncle force them together once again and this time around Noah is willing to put his fear of relationships in the past but convincing Sarah to take a chance on him and love isn’t so easy.

This is a slow burning romance with a lot of missteps along the way as they each come to conclusions about the other’s actions when talking to each would go a long away. Although they aren’t my favorite couple I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

I have read many of Melody's books and usually enjoy them, this one I had a hard time getting through and if I hadn't committed to writing a review I would probably not have finished it. I found it boring and repetitive, it was a case of just get on with it already.

There really wasn't much of a story line to it except for Noah one of the Anderson's falling in love with the young architect who is working on an Anderson project building a veterans centre and his love interest playing hard to get then giving in and having amazing sex, then playing hard to get again.

The story starts with a car accident involving Noah and Sarah which was a great introduction to the story, but then it went nowhere, the story could have taken a much more interesting turn after the accident if the theme had been expanded more.

I hate giving a book a three star review but this was definitely a miss for me.

Noah and his brothers never expected to become instant billionaires but that’s exactly what happened when they found out they are related to Joseph Anderson, having come into wealth they decide to put the money to good use and build a new veterans centre because after all that’s something that close to their hearts. To get the project off the ground Noah needs to work closely with a fellow designer Sarai Jennings, could Joseph Anderson be up to his old tricks and matchmaking once again......
Sarah and Noah become close as they try to come up with a design that works for the centre and durning that time feelings bubble to the surface but this couple is not ready for a relationship and they spend a fair bit of the time fighting the attraction and the chemistry they both share for each other. Has Joseph once again found the perfect match ?
I love catching up with the Andersons and their extended family and friends and I enjoyed this entertaining read. Good addition to the Anderson Billionaires Series

A very cute read about two people who seem to be total opposites aren't that different from each other. Sarah is a new architect fresh out of college and is hired by The Anderson family to help with a huge project for vets. Noah is part of the Anderson family, ex military, who works hard. He hardly takes time off for just relaxation and he expects this project to be the very best it can be. Sarah doesn't seem like she can see eye to eye with Noah but their issues lie that they are both hardworking and expect perfection, but they are trying so hard to fight their attraction to each other. Fate seems to step in and give them a helping hand by sending them on small adventures so they can see other buildings and compare their project to them. These adventures bring them closer together and the tension just keeps building until they can not stay away from each other much longer, but can they set aside their pride long enough to make it last or will they have to walk away?

Noah isn’t my first read from Melody Anne, however, it is not my favorite. I struggled to connect with the characters from the start.
Noah and Sarah have somewhat of a friends with benefits relationship at the start of this story, neither of them willing to take it beyond that. Then the accident happens and things change for them both. They continued to work together and Noah did what he could to prove to Sarah that they can be together, that there is something between them.
While I struggled with connecting to the characters, there is no denying that they did have chemistry. Plus, I do love Joseph Anderson and all his meddling ways.
Noah and Sarah’s story just wasn’t for me, but we’ll see what the future holds for the rest of the Anderson brothers.

After the car accident, caused by a drunk driver, Noah has been trying to reconnect with Sarah, but she continually pushes him away. Noah was driving his car and feels guilty that Sarah was injured and he wasn’t. She is supposed to be working with him on the latest project, but has said she isn’t needed. I wish I could say that I enjoyed this book, but I found it difficult to finish. Sarah was an annoying character who needed someone to tell her to move on or out. Noah needed to move on as well from trying to persuade Sarah that he was the one. I have read other books by this author that I enjoyed, this was not one of them. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (by paytonpuppy)

Quick easy romance with some heat. Nice way to pass an afternoon. This is the second book in this series and I believe readers will enjoy this novel just as much reading alone as in order.

A second chance romance is always a fun read. In this one, Sarah and Noah, both architects, were working together on the design of a veterans center when they were in a car accident. Sarah was seriously injured and Noah, rather than being supportive, pulled back totally. Now they're back together and trying to build both the center and a relationship. This starts off steamy and then it isn't. You know how this is going to end so how much you enjoy it depends on whether you find yourself grabbed by the characters. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. I read this as a standalone and it was fine.

Noah sure knows how to set hearts flutter!

Second book in Melody Anne's Accidental Billionaires is another good read. I actually like reading about the original characters where it had all started. I love the original Andersons Series to begin with, and love hearing about them.

The spin-offs are just as warm hearted reads!

Noah is a fantastic second chance romance. I love the connection between Noah and Sarah from the start. They have this way about them that will draw you in from the start. Noah is adventurous and keeps you on your toes. Sarah is more timid hard worker just trying to get the job done. There is a lot of back and fourth pull between these two that you are just going to love. They balance each other out. I loved every moment of this one. The fact that we still get a taste of our favorite Anderson's is just an added bonus. This cute reality check romance is one that will keep you glued to the pages.

Noah and Sarah❣️

Noah is the next Anderson brother to find himself attracted to a woman in the small town where they are going to be building the new Veteran centre😁 However, Sarah is more than happy to be a one night stand but Noah wants more.....but every time things heat up between them, they also go pear shaped at the same time😢

Poor Noah and Sarah have a very tumultuous relationship with ups and downs galore. Will Noah and Sarah walk away from each other or can they be the other half of each other to make a whole? A good story which I enjoyed and I’m definitely looking forward to see how Brandon goes with a certain petite blonde, who is friends with Brooke and Sarah😜

Thanks to Melody, the publisher and Netgalley for my advanced copy and I voluntarily leave my honest review❤️

Navy veteran Noah Anderson and his four brothers are beginning to understand what it means to be exceedingly wealthy after receiving huge payouts from their long lost billionaire uncle, Joseph Anderson.

Noah is an architect so Joseph puts him in charge of designing the new veterans center. And to continue his matchmaking scheme Joseph chooses Sarah Jennings as the co-architect to work with Noah. Sparks immediately fly and things heat up between Noah and Sarah.

Noah has a commitment phobia. So when things get serious he pulls back breaking Sarah's heart. But once he realizes what a huge mistake he has made will he able to convince Sarah to take another chance on him, or will it be too late?
