i loved everything about this book. jax and sasha work together, but they meet before they know this. jax is a carefree cowboy, and sasha is the careful city girl. after a night spent together, they learn they're going to have a baby together and a wonderful love story follows.

jax and sasha grow and learn how to love, not just one another, but also the people around them. between secrets, lies, and breakfasts before dinner, the two of them create a sweet family. jax becomes sasha's secret keeper and sasha becomes jax's anchor. they lean on one another when things get rough and create safe spaces. jax and sasha's story is filled with so much love and touches on the importance of the words we use and how much weight they hold. especially about the people we love.

This book was amazing! No one pulls you in quite like Devney Perry. I was instantly hooked on Jax and Sasha’s stories and the sparks when they were together. This surprise pregnancy/forced proximity/cowboy romance was everything. Sasha was such a strong character with a tender heart and Jax was patient and trustworthy. I adore this Haven family so much. Five stars

This is quickly becoming my favorite small town/cowboy romance series. Jax and Sasha were so perfect for one another. Their pasts brought so much to the relationship dynamic and how they truly cherish one another. My favorite parts were when they asked for a secret and a lie.

Small town. Surprise pregnant. Workplace romance. Forced proximity.

This book was PERFECTION!

I could have read this book forever! The second I finished it, I went back and read my favorite parts again and again.

Accidental pregnancy is by no means my favorite trope and one of the reasons I usually don't like it is because the romance sometimes feels forced between the two MCs when there's a baby on the way.

BUT in this book, you can feel the connection between Jax and Sasha from their first (chaotic and hilarious) meeting! I loved how Sasha slowly opened up to Jax and understood how he was all in with her. Their relationship was so beatuiful and heartwarming.

I LOVED everything about this book. I loved seeing Indya and West, I loved Haven River Ranch and I loved Montana (iykyk). This book has become one of my all-time favorite books, and definitely a favorite of 2024!

I can't wait for the next books in this series (Emery and Zak?)!

Another exceptional book from an exceptional author! I love a good cowboy romance and Jax is one of my favorite cowboy book boyfriends. Devney used her exceptional storytelling skills to take us on the journey of Sasha and Jax. It took a little bit to connect with Sasha and once you know her why it's easy to open your heart to her. What I love about this book is that it’s paced very naturally. Even though Jax falls first and Sasha has some secrets, they both get to know each other on a realistic pace. They truly become friends and then lovers. One of my favorite parts of this book was the “tell me a lie/ tell me a secret” aspect - my heart 😍. The ending just made me smile! One you don't want to miss!

devney perry has done it again, i am absolutely in love with the world and people she creates!! haven river ranch is my new home away from home, and jax and sasha are everything! love that this book included such a heartfelt backstory for both characters and their journey towards love. this book is absolutely a love story but is also about redemption, and grief, and forgiveness for both yourself and others. had me hooked from the very first page!!

jax and sasha had such insane chemistry and the slow burn was SLOW BURNINGGG!! i was genuinely on the edge of my seat waiting to see how they got over each hurdle. jax was so patient and understanding and sasha was so brave in forging ahead i just loved these two so much!

i always love how deveny has a little bit of mystery in all her stories and sasha’s backstory was so engaging in this. it was the perfect amount of unknown. also just need to give her the worlds biggest hug (this was actually what half my kindle notes were screaming about)

loved getting to come back to haven river ranch and see where everyone was at. this crew is full of complicated characters who have very real faults but that’s part of what i love so much about them. not everything in life comes easy but this book shows how worth it is to fight for what matters!!

sappy moment time but genuinely thank you to valentine pr and devney perry for this arc it means the absolute world to me 🥹 the eden’s are what got me into cowboy romances and i have found such a deep love for the entirety of devney’s back catalog! her stories have gotten me through some tough times (and serious reading slumps) so getting an arc for one of her books was such a surreal moment 🫶🏻

This book was beautiful. This story was perfection. I cried so many tears while reading. It seriously touched my soul in a way that I can't explain.

"Tell me a lie." "I hate Montana."

Jax and Sasha meet in the grocery store parking lot while she is trying to borrow a grocery cart. This meet cute turns into flirty banter and laughter before she realizes he is none other than Jax Haven, her new boss(ish). Sasha has moved to town to take over as the temporary manager of Haven River Ranch.
She quickly decides he is off limits. They have this undeniable chemistry and one night they give in. That one night now changes everything!

"My Josephine."

This book blew me away. I loved it from beginning to end. I loved the suspense element and I spent this whole book coming up with theories about who "Eddie" was. I was wrong every single time. Get your tissues ready my friends, you are going to need them!

I ate this book up!! I loved being back in the Haven River Ranch! I knew I would love Jax from crossroads and he sure didn’t disappoint! Loved that he knew once he set eyes on Sasha at the grocery store! Sasha and Jax had instant chemistry but their relationship was a slow burn for sure!

Jax stepped up the second he knew and I loved that he reassured Sasha that she wasn’t alone and he wasn’t going anywhere! Sasha had a hard time expressing her feelings and what she wanted but Jax was a patient man.

The baby’s name 🥹💛

I needed more of them!! I feel like it went so fast and would have loved to experience more of them with the baby! The time jumps were not my favorite.

The epilogue was everything!!


Highlights:

“I want you, Sasha. So fucking much.” “Then Take me.”

“That’s what you come over here to tell me? That I look like hell?” “You do look like hell. And you’re still the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”

“I’m scared to push with you. I’m afraid I’ll push you away. But damn it, Sasha, I want to push.” “Maybe I need to be pushed.”

“I love you. I think I loved you the moment you tried to steal that shopping cart.”

“Tell me a secret” “I love you”

4.5 STARS!

Sunlight by Devney Perry is the second story in the Haven Ranch series! I've been excited for Jax's story since Crossroads, and he did not disappoint 🤌🏼.

Jax and Sasha have a meet cute moment at a grocery store. It's an instant attraction, but Sasha quickly realizes who he is and decides not to accept his offer to dinner, leaving Jax perplexed. Soon, Jax finds out that she's none other than the new manager of the resort.

At first, their relationship has a bit of a bumpy start. When Sasha needs a new place to live, she's invited to stay at one of the guest cabins on the property that's right next to Jax. She tries to avoid him at all costs, but one shared drunken night after the holiday party leads to two lines on a pregnancy test.

I've been consuming surprise pregnancy stories recently, and honestly, they've been so much fun to read! Sasha guards her heart closely, and Jax fights her every step of the way. They learn to work together to become the best parents they can be for their baby, and it was such a wonderful thing to see!!

I adored this book so much!! Jax and Sasha's story was truly special. It's a story of redemption and second chances you don't want to miss!! I really hope Emery and Zak get a book, too!! Thank you so much, Devney 💛.

Still in shock after receiving an arc of this but thank you so much Valentine, NetGalley, and Devney 🫶🏼

Another devney slay - I am truly obsessed with this series and characters, and I hope there are more books to come. Idk what it is but it’s just so easy to fall in love with these fictional worlds that she creates.

Jax Haven, the man you are 👏🏼👏🏼 I loved how supportive and patient he was with Sasha from the day they met, even though she certainly did not make it easy for him. These two were so fun, and so sweet. I was so giddy and just living for their love story.

I love the accidental pregnancy trope and the fact that I used to not is appalling to me bc who was I? It was done so well here and it was cool to see Sasha’s entire pregnancy journey all while she was falling in love with Montana and with Jax, ofc.

This beauty is out October 15 so mark your calendars!

Tell me a lie - I hated this book

Tell me a secret - I loved Jax and Sasha’s story so so much.

Oh this book was so good for me. I loved how these two lost souls found each other and how they navigated their way into a happy ever after.

There’s so much heart in this story. Both Jax and Sasha has a history they’re not willing to share but with a few nudges from Jax he gets snippets of the life Sasha had before Montana. And at the same time he opens up to her. He used to be the town’s playboy but now he has his heart set on one girl only.

If you love: heartbreak(not in the way you’re thinking), cowboys, unexpected pregnancy, workplace romance, secrets and lies, reformed playboy then this is the book for you.

Devney Perry has become an auto buy author for me. Her work is just so good.

Sasha and Jax got a deserving 5🦋.

Where do I even begin with this beautiful story!! I absolutely loved Jax and Sasha as a couple so much and I loved seeing their relationship progress.

I am a huge sucker for an accidental pregnancy and this might be one of my favourite because of how wholesome it was. Jax was the sweetest and so charming it is nearly impossible to not like the man. Sasha was definitely a sassy FMC which I loved and I felt like their opposite personalities really made their relationship so unique and fun to read.

I’ve become a huge fan of Devney and her writing so it’s no surprise this one was a banger!

i love jax haven

I fell in love with Haven River Ranch in Crossroads and I was anxiously awaiting Jax & Sasha’s story in Sunlight! This was everything I wanted and more. This story is so beautiful😭

Sasha needed to escape her past life and wound up on Haven River Ranch. She meets Jax before she find out he’s her boss.. and once she realizes who she is, she’s determined not to act on her feelings. But Jax is making it hard because he wants to pursue his feelings, and he’s got a feeling it’s not one sided.

After a one night stand, Sasha ends up pregnant. And Jax STEPS UP so well. I fell in love with this man OVER AND OVER during this book. He was just so amazing with Sasha and gave her the time and space she needed to open up even though it was killing him. He didn’t want to push too hard and lose her when she and Josephine are his main priorities.

Devney really outdid herself on this one. We got a beautiful story between these two with some mystery thrown in. I loved everything about this book. This book will have you in your feels, but in the best way possible🥹

“Tell me a secret”….. “Tell me a lie”!!!
Oh how I love this game Jax plays with Sasha! I was addicted to this book right away and couldn’t stop thinking about it when I had to put it down. Devney has done it again! She has written another small town romance set in Montana that will pull at your heartstrings and give you all the feels and I loved every page of this book! Surprise pregnancy, amazing banter and the chemistry between these two characters is perfect!
Sasha and Jax are both a little broken and finding each other makes them a little less broken. One night changes everything for them and their lives will never be the same. Jax is a protective, sexy cowboy, maybe my new favorite book boyfriend! Sasha is a strong woman how just needs to trust and find a place she feels safe. Maybe Haven River Ranch is just the place for her! I loved getting to see the characters from Crossroads and what they’ve been up too!
This book will pull at your emotions, make you laugh and I loved going on the journey with Jax and Sasha! I highly recommend this book! No words can do it justice and Devney’s writing is pure perfection like always!

As we return to the Haven River Ranch we are once again in the company of Jax and West Haven, brothers and co-owners of the ranch resort.

An impromptu meeting with a stranger in town is cut abruptly short when said stranger discovers Jax's identity.

Sasha turns out to be the new manager of the ranch and she's put herself in a 'no go' area, especially for Jax.

In true romance novel style though, things don't quite go to plan and an unexpected pregnancy is the result.

The story of Sasha and Jax is beautiful in its vulnerabilities. Neither of our main characters have had it easy, albeit for very different reasons but Jax is invested in a new life with Sasha and the baby even when she's not so sure of the whole thing!

I really enjoyed this book, especially the banter between our MCs - the audio version (especially as we can listen and read) was sensational with the dialogue scenes bringing

the story, the anxiety and the vulnerabilities of each character right to the fore.

Is the Haven River Ranch series really finished or can we anticipate more 'love on the range' in the future? One can only keep hoping!

Sasha and Jax are unexpected. She arrives at the Ranch to help out Indya while she goes on maternity leave. She has secrets and Jax wants to figure them out. He is attracted to her and they have a one night stand which leads to a pregnancy. As they work it out, he starts to fall in love with Sasha and tries his best to get her to love Montana. I really like this series.

This is the second book in the Haven River Ranch series.  I think Jax and Sasha are perfect!  Their chemistry is out of this world!! Lots of emotion but a guaranteed a HEA!! 💜💙

Jax and Sasha. A hero and heroine with strong wills and soft hearts.

The second installment in the Haven River Ranch enveloped me in such warmth-a warmth that felt like a strong, but kind hug.
Jax and Sasha.

The angst. The laughs. The nerves. The smiles. The tears. Every emotion felt was a gifted moment of bliss as I turned the page. The struggle for love isn’t easy, but this love was perfect - even from the beginning.

Potential friends, then enemies. A truce struck and timid encounters full of tension. Surprises. Falling fast and hard with whiplash. Their story had it all and I loved every bit of it.

Jax and Sasha. It’s their time to shine and I’m here for it!

"I won’t let you fall.”

“I don’t like freeloading.”
“You’re carrying my Josephine. That’s notexactly freeloading.”

“Why don’t you want to set up the nursery?”
"Because I’m scared I’ll love it. And have to leave it behind.”
"Get it out of your head that you’re leaving.”

This is such a good book! I found the first book ok in this series, but when it was hinted that Jax and Sasha wouldn’t get along, I knew that I had to read this book! I loved reading how Jax and Sasha had a connection when they first met at the grocery store only for Sasha to realize that Jax would be her boss and that she’d want nothing to do with him. I loved how much Jax would think of Sasha and how he wish he could have his chance with her. The surprise pregnancy trope was done so well in this book! I love how the two of them navigated dealing with this surprise turn in their life. I especially loved how Jax would make Sasha meals, especially his breakfast dinners. This is definitely somewhat of a slow burn in the sense that, Sasha was very scared to open up since she had some hardships in life. I loved how Jax showed her that he was leaving, and that he was in it for the long-haul! I found their journey and relationship a beautiful one and I’m so happy that there was no third act break up!!! This is definitely going to be one of my favorite romances!

Sunlight by Devney Perry
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Releases tomorrow : October 15th

Once again we are back at the Haven River Ranch, Montana. Jax is totally smitten by the new assistant manager of the ranch - Sasha! An out of towner, whom he rescued one day from shopping cart disaster! But she has been ignoring him since she got to know he is the ranch co-owner, kind of her boss.

Devney’s writing is as always captivating and you are immersed into the lives of these two. Sasha was a complex character, she is reserved but we see glimpses of her past that haunt her. The side plot of who and what she is referring to in her past, is quite interesting. Jax we know from book 1, is a free spirited guy but as soon as he meets Sasha, he is done for. Their meet cute is so good. One passionate night between these two leads to an accidental pregnancy. Now, it’s not my favorite trope but with authors like Devney, you can trust it will be worth it.

Jax is so patient and loving with Sasha in this whole new journey, as he chips at her walls. She learns to trust him and finally find a family at the Haven ranch. Jax’s character is also so well written, especially since his own existence and the story of his birth, has been a pain point.

Also, it was so nice to meet West and Indya again, and their growing family. I was hoping for another book in the series, but it seems this is it. I hope to keep finding my way back to Montana with Devney’s writing, it’s always a good time.
