Under the Orange Moon
Dylan Mathews grew up in a house that was always filled with good-looking guys. However, with four protective older brothers they never stood a chance.
Except for one. Dylan knew she loved Ben McKenna from the first time she laid eyes on him. When he started sneaking in her room, she thought he felt the same way. But just as their passion ignited, he left for college and never came back. Until now. Returning home after 5 years, Ben realizes Dylan has always been the one for him. Can he win back her heart and finally find love under the orange moon?
My Review
4.5 Stars
Ben and Dylan's story is sweet! I love the "I loved you since I was 12years old" kind of stories. How Ben chooses to deal with his problems is not new, drinking and sleeping his way through his problems isn't what he wants but he doesn't think he deserves Dylan or that he could betray the family that he loves.
Dylan has waited for Ben to grow up and be the man she knows is beneath the drunken exterior, but at what point do you realize that maybe what you've been waiting for may never happen? Dylan has to decide if the love she feels for Ben will ever be returned or if she should try to forget him.
The push and pull of their story had me wondering who would give in first, would Ben admit he loved Dylan or would Dylan give up and move on with her life. Under the Orange Moon kept me interested until the very end.
Beyond the Orange Moon
Sometimes fate strikes in unexpected ways.
Lucy Dalton was tired of living a life she didn't want. Charlie Mathews was living the life he always wanted. But one night, fate changes the course of their lives forever. A year later, Lucy and Charlie's paths meet again, igniting a spark that neither can deny. Lucy knows he doesn't remember her, but she's already in too deep. Charlie knows the unwritten family rule: Mathews men never admit when they're broken. Can they leave the past where it belongs and find a way to look beyond the orange moon?

Beyond the Orange Moon is a heartbreaking story of Charlie's loss, how it didn't just affect him, of learning to live and love after your heart has been ripped out.
Charlie is my favorite of the Matthews clan, his drive to be what his son needs is so sexy. His struggle with learning to live for himself again is beautiful and heartbreaking.
Lacey's life has been altered by the same event as Charlie but he doesn't remember her being present on the worst day of his life.
Lacey struggles with the truth knowing it will break Charlie's heart all over again, will break the trust he has in her and all the progress he's made at getting his life back.
If you don't believe in fate, in meant to be, then this book is not for you. Charlie and Lacey were meant to be from day one.
