Not Just Friends and Growing Love by Lacey Wolfe
Thank you so much for having me on your blog today. I’m super excited about my new release Growing Love. I think this is a great addition to the Brookfield Series.
A year ago, I had finished up a series, The Hot Bods, and when the last book came out (Opposite Attract), it had been a character that in the first two books, readers didn’t like. And I was nervous then. Well, I’m nail biting nervous again!
In Growing Love, I have a female heroine who is quite bitchy. Diane voices her opinion even when she should probably keep her mouth shut. Everything’s been given to her for her entire life. So she is faced with a tough wakeup call in this book. She’s pregnant and has to put herself second and do what’s best for the baby.
I’m hoping that Diane softens up by the end of the story for readers. She was a lot of fun to write. And I enjoyed getting to know her from different angles. And if you do like her, you’ll see her again. You can meet her in Not Just Friends – the book before Growing Love. Diane’s got a brother named Cody. And soon he’s going to need love of his own after putting up with his two sisters for so long.
About Growing Love
Resigned to raising her baby without the father, Diane has everything figured out—a substitute dad in place, a support system ready, and a new home to move into—at least until the day he knocks on her door.
Matt tried to let Diane go, tried to forget that she was carrying his child, but an ultrasound picture brings his walls tumbling down. He can’t stay away any longer. But he hasn’t always been perfect. Diane and he share a past full of deceit and lies and now they have only nine months to undo it all and become responsible adults. It’s not only about them anymore.
With complications in her pregnancy, Diane is forced to move back to Brookfield to be under the care of her family. All she has to do is keep her feelings for Matt in check and she can stick to her original plan—raise the baby with Tom.
But it seems Matt has a few choice words about that…

Can the quiet bookstore owner land the playboy?
Alyssa Duncan's life revolves around books. If not for the fact the town's playboy Connor Phillips has a secret reading addiction, she most likely wouldn't be on his radar...or his friend. The two personalities just don't mesh...or do they? She gets a chance to find out when a book-reading bet leads to dinner. Alyssa experiences a wide a range of emotions. She's elated her beyond-friendship feelings seem returned, but his reputation precedes him. Is she just another gullible female in a string of women? As a relationship begins to develop with Connor, going past the limits of friendship, things grow muddled and complicated when an ex-boyfriend shows up in town and things aren't what they seem.
When the dust finally settles, will Alyssa find true love with someone or end up with just another friend?
Not Just Friends by Lacey WolfeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Having not read any of the Brookfield series, it didn't matter. This book seemed to stand alone. It was a sweet romance showing a love blossom between two friends. I love these kinds of stories. The person who's your best friend becoming the one you love.. they just leave you feeling good and happy. Though a quick read, it was still sweet and enjoyable to read!

I have to say, regardless of how this story ended, I just don't like Diane. I feel that Matt and Tom stole this story. They were great. I loved seeing things develop and change. I alway love seeing a man go to lengths like Matt did when their woman is pregnant. I feel that Diane is childish, snotty and selfish. Again, no matter what, my opinion on her stays the same. This is yet another super sweet story from the Brookfield series and another great quick read!

Thanks for the reviews and hosting me on your site today :) I wrote Diane and I have to agree, she's a hard one to like (and write!). I've been so nervous about this release.
