If you haven't read it do so VERY SOON! You do NOT want to miss this book! The list of characters is...beyond too much! Every single one of them is very important to the book in one way or another. It doesn't matter if it's a main character or just some backroom beefcake! They all have a role and the mixed personalities is almost too much to comprehend! In the average book it is easy to say who the main character/characters are. This one? Because so many have a high level of importance I could easily say 4 or 5...but it's obvious that the two who have the POV's that are the most important. It doesn't matter, the book is crushing me emotionally and I can't wait to see what happens in the next one. Such an excellent use of an imagination!

What a cute book. I enjoyed the two main characters so much! The way they fall in love is really quite organic, never feels forced. I liked the way that the author handled the physical relationship. No graphic stuff, but instead focused on the feelings and the love. Some great peripheral characters as well, and I'd love to read more about all the characters in this book!

I was hooked right from the beginning. Although the Faery world here is much more magic and rather traditional. Specially when Meg mets Grim...
But Meg is such a strong and brave person which is amazing and that's why I loved her so much. Puck is an awesome character, the best friend you can wish. He's funny and careless but I will always have a soft spot for him. Well and then we met Ash *swooooon* He's the classical "bad-boy-in-which-the-girls-fals-in-love-with"
All the characters Julie created are well developed characters that are easy to connect with. None of them were flat, but rather deep and muli-layerd. The more you dive deeper into the book more and more from them are revealed and you get glimpses inside of them that make you want to know more about them.
So when you love faeries, a good story plus awesome characters you will love The Iron King! Truly and , this book leaves you gasping for air and when you are like me and extremely emotional then I tell you will find tears in your eyes! I did! A fast developing plot that doesn't leave you much time to take it down.

Simply loved this book. I didn't want to put it down. Walsh writes great characters with hope and joy and injects the stories with real-life situations and real-life faith journeys. Her characters question their paths, talk to God in real ways, and are written with fully developed personalities. The characters make mistakes and lose their tempers, just like the rest of us. They're characters you'd love to meet, want to befriend, and feel like you know well at the end. This book made me want to create paper hearts for my own sweetheart next year and for years to come. Treat yourself to this book!

Start at the beginning of the series, you will find characters that you will fall in love with. These are lovely books and as an avid reader I can really recommend them as the type of book you won't want to put down. If you have ever considered extending a holiday into a long stay to "live like a local" but not quite had the guts to do it, this is a good way to enjoy the experience from the comfort of your own home. Who knows, maybe you will become inspired to try the Dolce Vita for yourselves!

(I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review}

For me, books are all about the characters, and I was not disappointed by the main and side characters in Proper Irish. I really enjoyed how Savannah was portrayed as such a warm and close community, but as a Georgia resident, I may be a bit biased :) I'm always a fan of a hardworking heroine we totally get that in Stella (that is also one of my favorite girl names). And though he was so unexplainably mean in the beginning, I couldn't help but love Padraig (give me a tatted up alpha male and I'm totally on board). While I'm not generally a fan of angst, I do enjoy when there are misconceptions and false first impressions that the characters have to work through - it's always fun to get to know the truth along with the character that was wrong. It feels more authentic. That was a great aspect in this book and I can't wait to see what's next in the Jaded Lily series!

I was hooked from the start on this great book!!  The writing and the characters are wonderful.  I loved Penn and John and couldn't wait to find out what happened next in their relationship.  I was totally amused by the meddling aunts Winnie and Jancie (it took me 100 pages before I knew that it wasn't Janice).  They were so funny with their cooking and meddling in Penn's life.  The small town was the perfect setting for these wonderful characters and it made you feel like you were right in the middle of it.  It was heartwarming to see the town supporting each other and made you really want to live in this cute little small town of Mars (yup, weird name but adds to the cuteness).  The best part of the book is there are some funny and lighthearted parts and other very serious parts which really balance each other out for a well rounded book.  I hope that you enjoy this book as much as I did!  I know that I am looking for other books in the series to read soon!!

**I received a copy of this book for my review and opinion.  All opinions here are my own.

I absolutely loved the characters, the pace and the story ! I cannot wait for the the second book to come out. The character development and unraveling of the plot keeps you hooked. And towards that end I did get teary eyed. Read!

I loved the main characters. Flawed, yet beautiful souls who find their completion, and love in each other. I had no problem with Father Rafe's "fall." I've always thought that if leaders of other religions can have families that the Catholic Church would be better off allowing that too. (My personal opinion)  I really liked that Honor was a strong character and didn't back down or allow some of his misconceptions. She knew the goodness, love, between them and helped with his sad past. They helped each other! I adored everything about this book. A word of warning... you'll need an extra pair of panties, or two!  I love a man who excells at seduction! Rafe really comes through! Thanks Sosie!

Well first off you know your going to love a main character with the name Pippa, I mean seriously how fun and great of a name is Pippa, and boy did she fit her name !!!! Christina Lauren does not disappoint again with another great,fun bum thrusting read. This is Jensen 's story, Hannah 's brother and I tell you Pippa owns these pages. Jensen meets Pippa and the book comes alive with laughter fun and likeability for Pippa that you only wish she was your seat mate on a plane or on your wine tour. I love that  these amazing talented author's write not only so well that you wish you could be friends with these characters, but they never dumb down the women ,never and I love that,you always get strong,resilient, smart,witty women characters that have emotional growth throughout the read,and are funny as hell. I love that these author's never take the road most traveled and always makes sure the characters grow in strength, even though Jensen took so damn long to get there I nearly threw my kindle a few times. You will fall in like and love with Pippa and the whole gang is in this read and the Epilogue 's are perfect and well simply put "Beautiful ", cheers again to these two exceptional writers for their quality writing skills and their awesome humor that is always present along with the heartfelt moments. It's the end of this series,it's been pure delight reading and I'll miss these awesome characters but the ending was so well done so for the fans like myself, thank you C and L, much enjoyed and much appreciated and please keep the books coming because every read from this talented team is always 5 stars and not alot of authors can I say that about !

You will fall in love with this amazing couple. They go through a lot of things everyday people deal with. Lots of humor from supporting characters that will make you love them as much as you love the main couple. While this is a standalone novel I suggest reading the series from the beginning so you understand all the backstory on the other characters.

Oh! Your favorite characters are back! Yes, Yvonne, Taylor and Pam with all the love, laughter and a little bit of drama to keep us all piqued with interest. Along, the way they gain a friend in Eva! Don't be alarmed at the outbursts of laughter, maybe a tear here and there...and oh yes, you'll get a little steamed too! Just remember God will be in the mists of these ladies strongholds, their dealing with forgiveness and just keeping the faith! This is a page turner and one you will not want to put down until the very end! God Bless and enjoy! Great job Tiffany you deserve some type of Urban Christian literary award for this one!

What a  lovely book!  The characters are diverse and lovable and the setting idyllic.  The main character, Verity, is easy to relate to.  I also loved the role of the cats in this book!  There is really not one thing to not love in this book!  It was so good that I look forward to joining the characters for more adventures in the rest of the books in this series.  My only regret would be that I didn't realize there is a specific order to the series, but that is entirely my own fault.  That being said, this book is so well written that it can stand alone.  But, I can hardly wait to read the rest of the series.  I have the feeling this series will be one I return to again and again because it is just so good!  Thank you, Rickie, for such a pleasant read!
