Gather Love After Dark (Gansett Island, #13) Conceived By Marie Force Accessible In File

enjoy these books because they're an easy read with little drama, and sometimes that's just what I need, Paul and Hope's story has a little more umph than the other stories, but it was still fairly light and a nice, easy read, This really deserves more than five, it was fantastic !!!! I loves this series but this was one of my favorites!!! Tearjerker time on Gansett, This story was really sweet and you can't help falling in love with these two before and after they fall in love themselves, I enjoyed how this story played out with their fear of compromising their working relationship, It's a great journey. Start withto really get the most from this series, but keep reading, because they are all winners, Dieser Band, der Gansett Island Reihe, war wirklich intensive, So viele Emotionen kamen beim Lesen rüber, Von Freunde bis zu Traurigkeit war alles dabei, Eine wundervolle Geschichte von Hope und Paul, Auch Jenny und Alex spielten einen große Rolle und alle anderen waren auch wieder dabei, I enjoyed another installment in this steamy soap opera series, It had the right balance between the current romance and checking in with characters from previous books, I like when kids are added to the plot and the heroine's son was a good one, Paul is attracted to their nurse Hope who they hired to take care of his mother who has dementia, Overall stars!

Triggers:
Cheating: No
Love triangle: No
Sex with om/ow: No
Intimate pasts: Paul hero: He definitely isn't a virgin.
He pretty much dated from time to time, There are really no details whatsoever other than the fact that he does want a wife and family of his own someday, Due to his mom being sick with Dementia and Paul trying to keep his dad's business afloat since his death, he also mentions that he has no idea when the last time he had sex was.
Hope heroine: If I am not mistaken, her ex husband who is a bastard in jail for doing something pretty horrible was her first and only sexual partner.

OW/OM drama: None
Push/pull: There is a LITTLE.
Hope has her own issues when it comes to men because of what her husband did to her, Paul knows what he wants and that's Hope and her son, But I feel like at first, when Hope pushed him away, Paul was willing to just move on, She WAS his employee after all and Paul does make a date with someone else, The date ends up canceling even though he knows he would have cancelled it anyway, The date was with some girl in town who he met awhile ago even though there was no spark on either end, So it was no big deal, but I was hoping he would have just fought back for Hope, Then when Hope seems to give him a chance, she makes a comment about NOT wanting to get remarried and that causes Paul to want to take another step back.
It all works out and they communicate pretty quickly, so that's good, But still. I guess I am used to a little alpha male sometimes and Paul was not LOL,

HEA: Yes, it was very sweet, but I would have loved to see them a few years down the line.


Marie Force is pretty much a go to author for me, When I am in a rut sometimes, I just pick up one of her books, I find that even though her series KIND OF build on each other, it's still easy for me to pick right up wherever I want, I believe I only readorbooks in this particular series, I enjoyed catching up with old characters and I do love the side character romances as well, Erin and Slim SO CUTE! I also love that for the most part, Marie Force

heroes aren't manwhores, Which is also awesome!

This was a pretty decent read, I would have loved for more scenes with Paul and Hope's son, but there were some sweet ones, I enjoyed. However afterbooks plus a few novellas of listening to the same narrator, I had to remove this from my audio and pick up the book and read.
Not that Felicity Munroe was a poor narrator, she just wasn't Gansett's voice, Bring back Holly Fielding please Back for more

I love this series, I really do the characters are fun and intriguing, mysterious and oh so sexy, It is always nice to come back to the island and catch up, With that said I felt a little let down with this book, Don't get me wrong the writing style was still superb but I felt that Paul and hope's story was overshadowed by so many other things going on in this book.
I know we have met a lot of characters and really do want to stay connected with them, However I didnt get a strong sense of bonding taking place with these two, It felt rushed and almost forced into the storyline, There was just so much going on in this book that poor Paul and Hope took a back burner, We had a funeral, Carolina and Seamus trying to come to terms with becoming parents, a bachelor party in which the women antagonize the men and of course thrash it.
A wedding, plans for a senior center to be built on the island, uncle Kevin trying to come to terms with his impending divorce, possibly a romance blooming in the future for him.
One lighthouse keeper being rescued in the middle of the night by one smoother operator, doctor visits, anniversary planning and that's just a small sample of everything that took place inside of this book that by the way ends withminutes still left in the book.
The otheris advertisement for upcoming books,
Don't get me wrong I'm not being ugly toward Marie I love this series and will definitely read the next book I just HATE that this series has gotten so big that the main characters take second place to all the other town folks.
