Fall into Temptation is a well-written and engaging novel that kept me hooked from beginning to end. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a captivating read with relatable characters and a compelling storyline.

Fall Into Temptation by Lucy Score is the second installment of her Blue Moon series.

In this book, single mom Gia and town Mayor, Beckett should not like and or want each other. They shouldn’t, but they do.

Ms. Score brings us back to Blue Moon and its wonderful townspeople and quirky characters. Beckett is kind of unlikable, until he isn’t. I rooted more for Gia to find her happily ever after than anything else and really ended up liking Beckett for her.

You can’t go wrong with a Lucy Score book and this was no exception.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are my own.

I'm in love with this little hippie town!! It's not often that second books of a series rate higher for me, but I enjoyed this one a tiny bit more than the first. The storyline was a little less cliche and more relatable. There were a lot more laughs and such adorable cuteness with the introduction of Aurora. The togetherness of this fictional family and community is something to be desired, especially for any of us who have never experienced it. And I think every town needs a Beautification Committee stat! If you're looking for a cute rom-com with small town vibes and eccentric characters, look no further! This book and series will give you all the feels! I highly recommend!

Fall into Temptation is book two in the Blue Moon series and highlights the budding relationship between Pierce brother, Beckett, and new-to-town, single mother, Gia. It can be read as a stand-alone, but I would definitely recommend starting with book one. Why miss out?

Thank you to SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books for granting me digital access via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review!

“If you’re a mistake, I have a feeling you’re going to be my favorite one.”

Welcome back to Blue Moon and the Pierce family.

Beckett and Gianna don’t work. She is raising two children and doesn’t want a relationship. He is not ready for an instant family. They won’t/ don’t work. So why is there so much attraction.

Absolutely loved these two and her kids, and getting to catch up with my favorite family!

Sign me up for every single Lucy Score book, ever. I don’t think there’s a single book of hers I’ve read that I haven’t loved. I absolutely am obsessed with the Blue Moon series and I just want to move there and be apart of it all.

This one was particularly charming due to the kids. They were silly and such fun to read about. I loved Gia and Becketts relationship and just loved all of this. 20/10 would recommend

Synopsis: Small town romance. Reminded me of Lucy Score’s other series, The Knockemout series because this also revolves around brothers. If you loved that series you may like this one too! (I only liked Things We Never Got Over.)
Pros/cons: Technically this is book two in the series but can be read as a standalone. I will not be reading book 1 or 3, this was pretty awful. My biggest issue was that the male lead was a walking red flag: a jerk with a temper. Not afraid to manipulate and gaslight. Run girl, run!

Thanks NetGalley for the advanced copy, due out next month, but this was a flop.

Beckett, a lawyer and mayor of the town, is still mourning the death of his father and is having a difficult time accepting his mother's new relationship. Gianna is Beckett's new tenant and the owner of the yoga studio. She's moved back to town to be closer to her father with her daughter and stepson, hoping to start a new life. The attraction between the two is hard to fight, and you can really feel the chemistry between Beckett and Gia. The support of family and townspeople is the exact type of small town romance I go for and I really enjoyed it. I love Lucy Score and all of her books are just so good. While this book is the second in the Blue Moon series, it can be read as a standalone. I can't wait to read more from this series!

First of all I’d like to thank whoever came up with the idea for the new cover design bc it really was quite a change!!! Now we can get to the point… once again Lucy Score has brought the most realistic characters I’ve ever read and that is a huge positive point. Another thing I really loved was the setting, I LOVE small town romances and this time it was no different, I thought it brought so much more fun to the story. For me the only flaw was that some things in their relationship were a little tiring but otherwise I really loved it 🫶🏻

This story pulled me in right away. It was my first time reading the author, and though this is number two in a series, I didn’t have a difficult time keeping up.

She’s a single mom yoga instructor who’s just moved to town with her two kids, he’s the mayor. This small town romance was utterly enjoyable and I loved how real the characters came across.

Blue Moon sounds like a fantastic place that I’d love to visit but since I can’t do that, I’ll definitely be reading the other titles in this series.


**this one is a reprint of the same title, published in 2016



Thank you to Bloom Books and NetGalley for the DRC

I absolutely love this blue moon series by Lucy Score. Beckett and Gia are such a fun couple. He did not see her coming but cannot get her off of his mind. She is a single mom and does. not have time for a relationship especially with the towns mayor. but they continue to be drawn to each other. It is sweet, spicy and very funny. I highly recommend.

This one is not as strong or sexy as Book one. There was not as much tension, but ultimately very satisfying. I still love the crazy small town setting.

Back to Blue Moon Bend, the nosiest, quirkiest, and smallest small town around, with a fun assortment of "hippy, goat soap making" residents that meddle in everything. A good amount of snark, lots of feels, some laughs, and some tears - it will take a village to get these two to see they belong together., get ready for the ride.

I LOVED THIS BOOK. Beckett, Gia, Aurora, and Evan have my entire heart. Even the 3rd act conflict couldn’t ruin my love for this book. Blue Moon Bend continues to be a special town for me. Lucy Score is at her best when she is in a small town and her humor really shines here. Love these characters, love this world, love this series!

This was a fun read and my first Lucy score book!
I liked the small town nosiness and Beckett was great.

I literally requested this because I saw upstate ny and I was curious how accurate it’d be portrayed lol. I did not realize it was a second book until I added it to good reads but you do not need to read the first. I’m not a huge single mom plot person but this one I found the kids to be impactful and I did not mind them being there. Lucy’s writing can be hit or miss for me and I was pleasantly surprised with this one. While it was frustrating at times the story was cute and charming.

Jumped into this book without knowing its book 2, however this was a cute lovable story! Now thinking I really need to go back and read the first one!
Also love this new updated cover vs the guy on the front shown on Goodreads!

Beckett is tired of romance until he meets Gianna. It's the worst time for her to start anything romantic with her useless ex, 2 kids and a new yoga studio.
She falls for him anyways with the help of the nosey town...

Love Beckett and Gianna together. The banter is terrific. The humour is top-notched. LOL so many times. A fun rom-com.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

this was my first and one of my favorite lucy score books!! i read it originally in 2021 and fell in love with blue moon.

this is the perfect kind of single parent trope, it’s cheesy, its swoony and most importantly HOT. i am so obsessed with the new covers of this series 🤭
