4.5 Stars!(ARC provided by Social Butterfly PR)-Ash Davis makes me uncomfortable. Most of the time in a bad way. Sometimes, though I’d never tell anyone this, he makes me uncomfortable in... a good way. Though I refuse to have a crush on him. Autumn Callahan is the oldest of four siblings and the daughter of famous NFL superstar Drew Callahan. When her dad retires from football, her family moves to a small town to get away from everything. They buy a mansion in the mountains, and plan to liv...
Well.... what to say... I found this book OK. Again, this is a case where NA romance gone bad with too much drama/ plot/ twist. Way too much! I do not think it needs that much of drama. The story between Autumn and Ash are just annoying! The chemistry of enemy to lover is promising at the beginning. Then Miss Murphy adding too much twist and drama into it. It is good to see how Drew and Fable life continues with their children. I read the other books in the series before Close to Me. Well, overa...
why did I decide to pick this up? severe lapse in judgement I think. I couldn’t stand how snobby autumn’s inner monologues were. I’m sorry but, no.
As a long-time fan of Monica Murphy, I have to say Close to Me is one of her best books! Autumn and Ash scorched my kindle with their chemistry, sexual tension, and the perfect amount of angst. I devoured this in one sitting! An engrossing coming of age, enemies to lovers tale, Close to Me is a definite one-click! Fans of Drew and Fable from One Week Girlfriend won’t want to miss this next generation story. #SwoonCity #MustRead #OneClick #ALLtheFEELS
High school drama at its finest.Tbh I liked most of this, I liked Autumn and her family, and how the story went through all the years but, but, but... I didn't like Asher and every time he said something stupid I wanted to shove something in his throat so he will finally shut up. I understand where he came from, but I don't think it's an excuse for how stupid his reasoning was most of the time 🤷🏻♀️.
Oh the angst in this story! I cannot express how much I loved this book. Asher and Autumn were everything I could have wanted and more. He is such a damaged soul that is looking for acceptance and love but does not know how to show his own feelings. He is dealing with so much and the only thing that gets him through are his feelings for Autumn. He believes that there is no way that she could want him so he admires her from a distance. Autumn comes from a loving family and has everything going fo...
I think I may be getting way too old for these second generation books. Over the top high school angst creeps in all-too frequently and tends to keep me stressed and heartbroken. I need more happy times with these kiddos. And I'm always fearful that these types of series will stall and we'll never get their complete stories. According to the author there is more to come with Drew and Fable's son, Jake's story up next, followed by their younger daughter, Ava, after that. Nothing mentioned about l...
'CLOSE TO ME' Is a full length, stand alone romance novel by Monica Murphy. Spoken in various POV's. I am drained, the drama, the angst, the sexual tension, the too and fro, these two were complete opposites, the bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks, and the good girl with a football legend as a father. Always worried that boys want to use her and get close to her just because of who her father is. BUT when these two were in each others space it combusted, an attraction that simmer
He’s all the rage, and I hate him for it.Close to Me was pretty stinking cute. There are some steamier bits, but this is mostly a coming of age YA romance. Definitely on the more mature YA side, but the themes and angst were very young adult to me.The heroine, Autumn, is the new girl in school. She has a retired NFL football quarterback dad, an awesome mom, and 3 younger siblings. Ash is the dark mysterious boy who doesn’t pull any punches. He says and does things to Autumn that no one else has
Holy hotness! I absolutely loved this book! It's angsty, raw, beautiful and sexy, and I adored every single word of it. The writing. The pacing. The story. The dialogue. The sex. Everything is all so perfect. It's a perfect book that will hold you prisoner. Monica Murphy completely slayed it with this one.This story follows Asher Davis and Autumn Callahan, a boy and a girl from very opposite sides of the track. Ash is the QB of the football team that all the girls want, but none have been able t...
This was sooooo good. I loved everything about it. Asher doesn't have the best life a worthless mother who has her priorities really screwed up. Asher deserves happiness and good things. Then he meets Autumn. She comes from a great family. Her dad an x football champion.what he needs is her family... And her.
***4 "Don't give up!!!" stars*** !!!NOW AVAILABLE!!! "Don't worry. I won't burn you.""You already have.""You've burned me too." I suppose that many of you have read already "One week girlfriend" by Monica Murphy.Guess what??? Drew and Fable had a big part in here since this story was about their daughter, Autumn... And i think, that we will have more of the next generation!!!But don't you worry!!! This is a complete standalone and even though, i haven't read yet Drew's book, i enjoyed this
THIS BOOK IS LIKE PRETTY RECKLESS BY LJ SHEN WITH HARDIN SCOTT AS THE HERO...[image error]IG- Miftahul_mslovesreadingREVIEW MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS Okay so when I started this book I thought I ll give it 5 stars because it was so damn interesting, Autum is the daughter of a famous football player and Ash is a poor guy whose mother is a drug addict. He liked the heroine from the beginning but Autum had a crush on another guy, their story started when they were 15 and took many turns. I thought it
First off I love romance novels that continue with the next generation of love. In this book we get Drew and Fable’s children taking us on the roller coaster of emotions. Autumn is daddy’s princess, try as she might to have him see her as more. Autumn’s character is what I pictured her to be, a perfect blend of her mother’s strength and her father’s goodness and both of their kindness and goodness. I can’t wait to see how her siblings are!! Ash, is the bad boy quarterback of their high school te...
4.5/5 StarsDisclaimer: I received an Advance Reader Copy at no cost from the publisher/author. All opinions in my review are my own. This is a book that I could not put down. It was totally addicting and I binged this book in a single day. Monica Murphy always has a way of pulling the reader into the story and into the characters' lives. No matter what type of story she tells, I always find myself loving Monica Murphy's stories. She has a writing voice that really speaks to me. Her writing style...
This was just ok. It’s a high school romance, both more NA (explicit sex scenes) than YA. I guess this is a spin-off of the One Week Girlfriend books (Drew & Fable) as these are their kids’ books. Overall, neither of the MCs did much for me. I like my YA or HS romances to give me all the feels, in this one both characters were super annoying. The heroine was so immature and annoying and had no business having sex. The “broken” hero was a plain asshole, and romance between him and Autumn was basi...
