Get It Now Why Not Tonight (Happily Inc, #3) Written And Illustrated By Susan Mallery Available As Bound Copy

book! I hope she continues this series : Natalie Kaleta is prepared to do anything to help look after the artists at the gallery where she works.
This often means she has less time to devote to her own art, but she needs her job to pay the bills, Sometimes even that is a struggle, So when someone needs to go and check in on brooding artist Ronan Mitchell, it is left to Natalie, The trip to his mountain home in a downpour sets several events in motion that have an effect on her life, Ronan has his share of issues many of which relate to his family situation, which is why he ended up in the town of Happily Inc, Happily Inc, yes that really is the name of the town, is a town with a focus on theme weddings, As youd expect, since this is a romance, an attraction develops between Natalie and Ronan, but it seems there are too many obstacles in the way, including Ronans own relational hang ups and history.

Natalie, despite the heartache she carries with her after the death of her mother, is one of the most upbeat characters you could ever wish to meet.
She is quirky, fun, creative and above all positive, always looking for the good most of the time, She is an endearing character, Ronan shows some caring characteristics but is largely selffocused, At least thats the way it seems much of the time, I was right with Natalie when she gives him an absolute tongue lashing, given all he has and all she doesnt, Way to go girl! This totally non crafty person, loved most of the descriptions of various types of art from glass work to mixed media, origami and a whole heap of other creative activates.
Sometimes though the themed weddings on cartoon and movie characters and the amount of effort put into the one day, got to me a bit, Just dont understand that sort of fuss, Surely more focus should be on the marriage and making it work than on the one day, But thats a personal view,
After two very tension filled books, all I wanted was an easy light read, This was a great contrast and I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if at times I couldnt quite see what Natalie saw in Ronan, I did think Elaine, mother of the Mitchell family was similar to Natalie in that she was able to take a negative and turn it into a positive.
I spent a bit of time feeling sorry for Elaine and annoyed with Ronan for his treatment of her, which goes to show how involved I was with these characters.
I have not read the first two books in this series and it didnt matter a bit, I was quickly drawn into the engaging read, It was just the light release I needed, though it does raise some interesting issues about parenting, secrets and family relationships, Well I cried!

This book had ALL THE FEELS!

Ronan is WOWZA and Natalie was just what he needed, I love this series! What a fantastic read! Nobody does romance as well as Susan Mallery, Her ability to create characters to populate her worlds is beyond compare, Each time I visit one of her towns, I want to spend time with the people who live there, The situations her main characters face always are so very believable, I simply love her work, Loved this one. So much art in this one, I really admire the author's ability to bring to life the art through amazing descriptions, Looking forward to. Here we go. .: Why Not Tonight is the third book in the Happily, Inc series, This one is Ronan and Natalie's story, I have been kind of iffy on this series so far, I'm sad to say this one is my least favorite of the three, Natalie works as an admin assistant in the art gallery in town, She decides to drive her car in a major storm up the mountain to check on Ronan, The weather forces her to stay at his house for a few days, The couple get to know each other a bit better and see a different side of each other,

What frustrates me about this series as well as this book is the lack of chemistry between all of the couples so far, Ronan and Natalie have zero chemistry, Even their friends are surprised when they find out the couple is sleeping together, It's hard to enjoy a romance where there is no chemistry, The HEA was sweet, but not really enough, Ronan and Natalie were also kind of soso characters, While I liked Natalie's spunk and love of life, she was still kind of annoying, I got tired of the constant reminders of her financial situation and comparing herself to the other more established artists who made more money, Ronan was beyond frustrating in his denial that Elaine was his mom, I felt bad for her and she barely in the book, I still think the man needs some major therapy, I did cheer Natalie on when she called him out on his BS,

It's not a bad book and it wasn't an awful read, I just want more from this series, The next book, Not Quite Over You, comes out next month, It's Silver's story. I'll be reading it, but if that couple isn't any better, then I will probably be calling it a day with this series, This is the third book in this series, The series has gotten better with each book, I really have grown close to the characters and the town of Happy, The brothers, Mathias, Nick, and Ronan are great, I like that while, each one has been in the spotlight, they are still featured together in some way in the books,

Instantly, I loved Natalie, She had spunk. This spunk is what broke down Ronan's walls and brought him back into the "world", They were so good together, Natalie's joy was so infectious especially over her new red car, I like Ronan just wanted to keep Natalie happy, While, Ronan had a tough exterior shell, he was still very likeable, The only question you have to ask yourself is "why not tonight" pick up a copy of this book and treat yourself to laughs, love, and engaging characters.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review, Yet another great book by Susan Mallery, Really enjoying the new series, Can't wait to read more, I have read all of the books this far in the “happily inc” series and thoroughly enjoyed each one of them, “Why not Tonight” was no exception, The characters and plot simply pulled me in to the story line, The characters came to life once again and the story was very believable and entertaining, I never close one of Susan Mallerys books feeling Ive wasted my time instead, I close it looking forward to her next one, ed for Romancing the Readers Blog: sitelink blogspot .

I'm so glad that I finally got around to reading Why Not Tonight, I've been so busy reading other things that I haven't gotten to this one or the one right after it, I'm a naughty girl.

Let me start off by telling you that Why Not Tonight has my favorite couple ever, I totally loved Ronan and Natalie, Ronan is totally messed up for the big turn in his life, I understand why he feels the way he does, I just know it's time for him to man up and join the real world again,

He so needs someone like Natalie, She isn't at all intimidated by him, or the way he acts, In fact she takes it all in stride,

What I really love about Ronan is how he stands behind Natalie and her art, He could be a snob, the man does make millions for his art, but instead he cheers her on, Right there my heart melted for him,

One of the things the catches my heart about these two are the sweet things they do for each other, Natalie makes these cute origami guys and leaves them all over Ronan's home where he finds them, I love that he takes something she loves doing then tries to copy it with his art of choice, So sweet.

These two just work, He at times has a trouble understanding her, but always wants her to be happy, Again, so sweet. He also lets her lead him back to the living, Something he had trouble doing on his own,

sitelink com/Romancingreader Susan Mallery writes some fun books, And this series set in a town that somehow revolves around specialty weddings is a lot of fun,

I really liked this one because we finally get to resolve the whole issue with Ronan and his mom, It is a trope in romance fiction that a love of a good woman fixes everything, but it's done well here, I especially liked Natalie's sassy nature, I love this series and the town of Happily Inc! It is the type of town I'd like to live in if I could,

This book focuses on Natalie and Ronan, I like that Natalie is a curvy girl and for the most part owns and rocks her curves, Ronan has a lot of baggage from finding out that he doesn't know who his biological mother is and that the woman that raised him lied to him about being his mother.
I like how his brothers and Natalie don't let him wallow in his misery for long, well not too long, they basically tell him to get over himself,

The romance between these two has their ups and downs, but that is what made it a real romance and not a fairy tale, They support each other but also they have their moments where not everything is sunshine and roses,

A quick fun read when you just want to pretend that nothing is wrong with the world,.This was more of a,rating. I like Susan Mallery's books but this series has been hit and miss for me, I'm finding too many of the female characters a little too stupid for my liking, In this one we have Natalie and Ronan, It starts off with them spending the night together due to a storm, Of course things happen. However, Ronan is messed up from his past, Honestly I thought he was being ridiculous

about it, Thankfully in the end he becomes better about it, I have a love/hate relationship with Susan Mallery novels, Usually it starts out love, love, love, and then something happens, and I want to toss the book aside, When I first started reading her stories, she had the heroine get pregnant at some point, which is always a bad prop for a romance writer to use as far as Im concerned especially if it happens in more than twothreefour novels.
Fortunately with the Happily Inc, shes left out the props or at least that oneso far,

Natalie and Ronans story is sweet, Natalie gets stranded at Ronans house when a storm hits, which knocks down trees, totals Natalies car, and makes the road impassable, Since Ronan has become a bit of a recluse, spending most of his time at his home rather than the gallery/studio where Natalie is parttime office manager, they have never been in each others company much.
This all changes.

Inspired by Natalies cheerful disposition shes almost manic pixie, but not quite quirky enoughmaybe, Ronan begins to create again, And they fall in love,

But Natalie wont enter a serious relationship with Ronan because she thinks he throws important relationships away, which she cant abide because she lost her mother and wishes shed been able to spend more time with her.
Ronan, on the other hand, feels betrayed by the woman he thought was his mother, He doesnt think that Natalie can understand where he is coming from, All true.

The problem here is that Ronan has multiple opportunities to give the situation some real thought, and it isnt until hes practically hit over the head with evidence that he caves.
This is a shame because, for the most part, I liked Ronan, but brooding idiot can only be carried on so long before it becomes annoying,

However, that didnt ruin the novel for me, The scenes that come after Ronan is “hit over the head,” so to speak, are well done, Those combined with the charm of Ronan and Natalie as a couple made this an excellent read, And, as we had in the other novels from this series, theres a lot going on so the reader is never bored,

While this can be read as a standalone, I wouldnt advise it, I missed the novella in the series and felt like Id missed some important informationand that was just the novella,

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review, .
