This author is new to me, but I will be keeping an eye out for anything else they publish. I loved the story and the characters. The pacing of the story was great and the characters were relatable.

Unfortunately, this book was not for me. I didn't like the MMC, so that was a turnoff for me with this book. I will not be reviewing this book on my social media.

I adored this book! The kids really made this book for me. Aurora was just so adorable. I loved the brothers and their relationship. It was fun that they resorted to their inner child when they were together. And of course Beckett and Gia. They couldn't keep their hands off of each other. Loved it!

Another solid read from Lucy Score. Great characters and simple storyline. Whenever I need a light easy read I know Lucy Score will not disappoint. Solid four stars. Desperately waiting for the Jax/Joey installment.

"I know that you care about me. And I know that I am head over heels for you, Gianna. You are never out of my head. I want us to be an official us.”
"What about Evan and Aurora?”
"Your package deal and a damn good one. Your kids are one of the best pieces of you.”

I love this book! Reading how Beckett has to deal with Gianna and her two kids living in his guest out was hilarious. He keeps telling himself that nothing can happen, yet he keeps doing all these amazing things and making them look like such a cute family. I loved how he wasn’t just there for Gianna, but for her kids as well. From helping her stepson, Evan with a debate club, to being Aurora’s model when she wants to do makeup and hair! I cracked up at all of the bickering that would go on between Beckett and his brothers, Jax and Carson. I love this small town so much! The characters are just so perfect and you can’t help with falling in love with everyone. I especially loved the chemistry between Beckett and Gianna. The steaming scenes were so good and it was specially hot with all the sneaking around the two of them had to do! I loved the ending and cannot wait to see more of this family!

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publishing Company for this Advanced Readers Copy of Fall Into Temptation by Lucy Score!

I love Lucy Score but this was a flop for me. I couldn't get past the fact that they are step-siblings and the insta-love.

This is the Second book in the Blue Moon series. I loved Carters story and now this book follows Beckett and Gias love story, how they’re trying to avoid falling in love. I cannot recommend the book enough. Small town stories have always been my favorite, and this one has lovable and great characters to remember.
I really enjoy reading Lucy score books, they’re always fun and her stories are very easy to follow . This books wasn’t the exception, a mix of fun and romance, perfect combination. I Loved the ending!

I always enjoy Score's writing and story telling. This was no exception. I love how she creates welcoming places, like Blue Moon, as the backdrop, but she does it so well that it becomes just as important of a character. Gia and Beckett were adorable but it was refreshing to have a romantic story around two people that had some life experience and were more mature. Gia was a strong, confident female lead, which was also refreshing. Beckett was manly enough without being controlling or unemotional. I love the added tie in a family dynamics as well.
I can't wait to read about the next Pierce brother!

I did not realize that this was part of a series when I started reading this, though shortly into it I thought that it might be because of how it presented information on the other characters. Luckily, the book is written in a way that you're not totally lost if you accidentally start with this one. Gia and Beckett are fun characters and their chemistry is fun to read about. It's a solid romance, especially if you're willing to believe in their insta-love (which I sometimes have trouble with, but didn't for this book). Thank you NetGalley and Bloom Books for this ARC!

Thank you Netgalley and publisher for this ARC .

My girl Lucy Score can not write a bad book!


This was a good palate cleanser book for when you want a break from the smut.

Such an all around good book.

I fell in love with this town and fell in love with this book! I highly recommend to rom com fans. Great characters and I couldn't put the book down. Read when you are free for the day! This book will consume you!

I wished I would have had the chance to read the first in this series, but I was happy to find out that this is also a stand alone novel. I did enjoy the characters and their development, and the plot was very well planned. I think the slow burn of the novel made it so much better. Once the romance did get started, it was written so well. I look forward to more from this author.

Thank you Net Galley ARC

Fall into Temptation is book 2 in the Blue Moon series and this time we get the brother Beckett. He and Gianna are perfect for each other...although it does take them a bit to figure out how to make a relationship work. He's a loving son who is worried about the man his mom is dating and she's an amazing mom working hard to make her family happy. I enjoyed the brothers camaraderie and am looking forward to book 3. Lucy Score's book area always fun with some added spice!

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review. All opinions are my own.

Lucy score has definitely scored with this one! stepbrother and sister can be an awkward trope. but if you don't mind or ignore that part it feels like a really solid romance! beckett is such a cute name too! good mom vibes for this book made me feel really good reading it being a mother myself. I really identified with the MC and sometimes the love interest. The setting is chef's kiss! Thank you, Lucy Score, the publisher, and Netgalley!

Second in the Blue Moon series but it totally works as a standalone.

As the story progressed the romance got really, really good.

Lucy Score is the queen of small town romances. This book felt like the perfect mix of cozy and spicy which is also one of the biggest trends in romance this season (cozy spice). I recommend this series to anyone who loved the Dream Harbor series or is a fan of Gilmore Girls.

Lucy Score's writing is always so easy and comforting, though this book definitely fell short of her other, more popular books (like Everything We Hide From the Light.) A s a cozy fall read I wouldn't necessarily recommend it over other books but I wouldn't NOT recommend it! Love Lucy Score's writing as always :)

Beckett Pierce’s interest is piqued. The buttoned-up lawyer / town mayor is eager to meet the newest town resident after catching a glimpse of her through the window of her yoga studio. She may not be his usual type, but something about her catches his attention.

But then he finds out that she’s his newest tenant, occupying the guest house in his backyard with her two children.

And her father is dating his mother.

And it looks like things are getting serious there.

The odds may be stacked against them, but will Beckett and Gianna be able to resist temptation and stay away from each other?

I received a copy of the ebook from Bloom Books. All review opinions are my own.

I think I am in love with Beckett Pierce! This slow burn will have you in your feels! Especially if you love the single mom trope- which I do 100%! I am obsessed with the kids calling him Bucket 😂 I need to go back and read book 1 ASAP to see Summer and Carter because they are adorable in this! Can’t wait to see what’s in store for me in book 3!!
