A pastry chef, an artist, a love of sweets and the city of Paris are just a few reasons to read this spicy sweet story.

A woman who has her future all planned out, to master her craft and live a life doing what she loves. A man who is living life, minute to minute but a passion to create burns strong.

When one night threatens to change everything they will discover that what they desire the most isn't so out of reach.

Fear can motive us to do things we may never have done before. When it comes to love, avoiding the feelings sometimes isn't an options.

A great story that was easy to read, cute plot and the characters well developed. I enjoed the bakery scenes and the relationship dynamics.

This is the third book in a series, but is easily read as a stand-alone. Characters from the previous books play a role, but the plot line for Jenny and Jared is completely separate.

The story is fast paced and fun, with quirky characters and a lot of heat. The chemistry between Jenny and Jared is believable and works for the story, and the supporting characters, Jenny's brother and sister-in-law, also mesh well.

I feel the progression of the relationship between Jenny & Jared works well. They both carry insecurities and commitment issues, which color their perceptions of each other's actions at times. But they are also incredibly sweet together. Jared has hidden depths that are beautiful, but his past makes him fearful of a future. Jenny has always been a bit wild and never had a successful relationship, so doesn't know if she's even capable of one.

There were some bumpy parts in the plot line, but all in all, I think this was a truly enjoyable read.

Great book, I'm a little sad it took me 6 years to finish it. The story moved predictably and this was the perfect quick read. I will definitely explore more books by Kira.

My first Kira Archer book! I adored it! The cover is so sweetly delicious. I knew I would instantly like it. Happy Reading!

This is a very sweet romance. Jared is in love with his best friends little sister. Its clear from the start of the book that both Jenny and Jared are going to struggle with any kind of relationship. I loved the build up of this love. It was funny, sweet and at times hot. The biggest downfall of this story was the sudden ending. It went from building and simmering of a hot new romance, to a fight, to the very last chapter that solved everything. The ending felt rushed. I would have loved to have read more about Jared changing. Jenny’s character was annoying towards the end. She became selfish in her own wants and needs without thinking about others. She ran off, left the country and was upset because Jared didn’t chase her right away. While her character was refreshing and challenging at the start. Towards the end I started to hate her behaviour. She was acting like a spoilt brat who couldnt get what she wanted.

This is a quick read , which is pretty fun about two people (Jenny and Jared) who never had planned to get together as a couple. They like playing the field and they really like going out clubbing and dance clubs and the like. They begin to work with one another when sparks fly between them yet When they eventually make it to his bed , there is an “accident”. Will real life get in the way of a budding relationship?
This was an ok read in book 3 in the Sweet Love series . I found that the story needed to be brushed up a bit further and at times was a bit slow but was an ok read.

MY RATING: 2.75/5 

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. 

This book was a bit tricky. It wasn't a bad book that deserves a really low rating but it also wasn't a good enough book to reach the coveted average rating of 3/5 stars in my records. 

Let's get into why I gave this rating. First of all, we have two characters are that flirty with each other but lacking the intensity and heat I wanted. There was no yearning between our heroine and hero but simply but just flirty exchange of words and quirks. In addition, the characters were forgettable. Jenny is a pastry/dessert chef, determined to succeed in the world with her business and she doesn't need Jared to barge in and make her life more complicated than it already is. 

Between baking a cake on a last minute request, Jared and Jenny hook up and the biggest problem that comes across for both of them is that the condom breaks and suddenly, their relationship may become a little bit more permanent than expected. Jenny uses her fear of being pregnant as reason to criticize Jared and it was just strengthening the reasons why I don't think they should be together. Or like even after the happily ever after, they won't last. 

But anyways, I'm not going to spoil everything for readers so if you're curious to why I think this way...

Read it.

MY RECOMMENDATION:

Don't walk into this book with high expectations.

Sweet, adorable, and sexy, these 2 trouble makers want to have a little fun. Jenny is on vacation from school, and Jared is willing to spend as much time as he can with her, if her brother, his friend, would want to kill him. Lots of fun, lots of sweets make for a great read,

Two people who never planned to become an item suddenly are much to their jargon. Jared and Jenny enjoy living their single life to the fullest, but when they play too hard consequences come calling. Working together only proves the sparks already flying between them are justified despite the chaos that it causes to their lives.. This was a good, uncomplicated read that you don't have to read the rest of the series to get into. I would recommend as a sweet treat.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this story.

Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely by Kira Archer is Book 3 of the Sweet Love Series. While this book is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.

I’d place this read in the young adult/new adult section more than anything else. While the characters were entertaining and there was balanced chemistry, shenanigans and drama throughout the story, I didn’t feel connected to the characters and their situation as a whole. They were way too young and immature imo and that’s not what I’m looking for in my reading material. Overall, a nice read just not for me.

Please note that an ARC was generously provided in exchange for an honest review of which this is both honest and completely voluntary.

There was a lot to like about this story. Archer is a great writer and I've loved Jared since the first book in the series. The main reason I didn't give this a higher rating was due to Jenny.

She just came across as incredibly judgmental! It was okay for her to be capable of change and maturity, but inconceivable that Jared might make those same changes when confronted with exactly the same circumstances!? Also (and this isn't really a spoiler as this is a ROMANCE novel) the grand gesture at the end, whilst admittedly lovely was a bit too one sided for me! I wanted her to apologise for underestimating him (she's already come to that conclusion herself but I would have liked her to tell him) so that the relationship felt more evenly balanced.

So all in all a good, well written story, but not as great as it could have been.

A sweet story!

I was really looking forward to Jenny's story after reading her big brother's (Totally, Sweetly Irrevocably) and seeing all of the mayhem she managed to cause there. And the Jenny of the first few chapters didn't disappoint. Their meet (meet again, technically) cute was especially entertaining:

He was even hotter closer up. Who was she to turn away a gorgeous man who introduced himself with his face in her lap? That would be rude.

Both Jenny and Jared are young and free and fun, and reading about them feels just as fancy free...until things happen.

Don't get me wrong, though--it's still a great read, but our hero and heroine have to pause and take stock of things, which quickly get complicated. They have to take a good look at their lives and decide what they really want, what they're willing to change, and what will be worth the effort of reaching for--regardless of the ultimate outcome of their "oops" moment. In some ways, the carefree, most-likely-to-be-arrested-in-a-food-truck Jenny is no more, but since time has gone by and she's discovered and been moving toward her calling (culinary school in Paris, nonetheless!) that makes sense. It needed to happen. She's growing up and finding her way, a way which may or may not include a certain fun-loving, live and love for the moment friend of her older brother who also needs to think about moving forward and taking his own risks.

And...maybe anther somebody too? I'm not telling you; you're going to have to find out for yourself ;)

A sweet conclusion to a delectable series--readers will get to see prior heroes and heroines living out their HEAs, ooh and aah over baby owls (!), and maybe even drool a little--or a lot--over the idea of a wedding cake made of baklava. (Google it. You won't be sorry. Though you'll probably be hungry...)

Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely, by Kira Archer is a contemporary romance focused on unexpected surprises, job choices, and plenty of romance.

While dealing with her meddling extended family, Jenny Boyd is temporarily back home from her life in Paris as a culinary school student. Due to her temporary status, she's interested in a temporary relationship and she's found the perfect guy.

Even though Jared Crew is attracted to her, their connection through friends causes him to be hesitant, especially since Jenny doesn't initially remember him. As the story unfolds, Jared and Jenny have to deal with a possible pregnancy, their lives in two different countries, and their personal issues with relationships.

Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely is geared towards contemporary romance fans. Even though it's the third book in the Sweet Love series, it's a stand-alone book, so it's not necessary to read the series in order.


Note: I received this book from NetGalley, which is a program designed for bloggers to write book reviews in exchange for books, yet the opinions expressed in this review are my own.

Kira Archer has done it again - written a highly entertaining romantic comedy with great characters, humorous interactions, plenty of twists and turns and that oh so important HEA ending - but not until there have been lots of diversions en route!

Jenny is back home for a month from studying at a Parisian culinary school. She’s determined to have fun and is even more tempted when the handsome hunk, Jared Crew, literally lands in her lap! He recognises Jenny from his best friend’s wedding and knows she should be off limits as that friend would not appreciate Jared making any moves on her. However, temptation, attraction and hormones galore mean these two are mutually attracted and things between them soon get hot and steamy. That’s when reality steps in with a condom breaking wake up call! What should these two do now?

Both main characters are fun and grow in maturity during the story. I admit didn’t like Jenny’s somewhat judgemental attitude regarding Jared at some points in the story, especially how, whilst she acknowledged  that she was prepared to change her life and ambitions, she assumed Jared would be unable or unwilling to do so. I like how the author revealed that Jared’s overt attitudes and behaviours actually hid and protected his more emotional, sensitive nature. I also enjoyed how they both developed because of their relationship. Get ready for some amazing descriptions of culinary treats in this light-hearted and heart warming story with plenty of laugh out loud encounters and touching moments interspersed throughout the drama, making it a highly entertaining read that I have no hesitation in recommending.

I requested and was given a copy of this book via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion after choosing to read it.

Actual rating: 3.5 stars

To be honest, I decided to read this book because of the cover. Who doesn't love desserts? This was a fun read. However, I just didn't fall in love with Jenny and Jared. Since this is the 3rd book, I may read the first 2 books in the series.

Thank you to NetGalley, Entangled Publishing, LLC and Kira Archer for an arc of "Sweetly, Deeply, Absolutely" in exchange for my honest review.

A very fun, light and nice reading. I really enjoyed it and it was very easy to read. I really like Jared and Jenny and even their friends.

Another adorable book in the Sweet Love series (its #3 but can be read as a stand alone). I love that both Jenny & Jared are players- it was nice to see a twist to the woman taming a playboy. It was interesting to see how they "tamed" each other & had a lot of fun along the way.

Also loved catching up on the previous couples from the series.

Kira Archer writes in such a lighthearted manner that you can't be anything but happy while reading her stories.
