~**~ ARC Review: Finding Alexei by Kendall Ryan ~**~



***4 Stars***

After meeting Alexei in Dear, Jane, I needed more of the man, so when it was announced that he’d be getting his own HEA I couldn’t have been more excited and Finding Alexei did not disappoint. It’s all kinds of sweet, smexy, swoon worthy and majorly ovary obliterating!

I loved Alexei in Dear Jane. He was such a good, and true friend to Jane, it was hard not to fall in love with him and now after getting to really see the man’s heart, it’s hard not to adore him. I will admit that there were moments I thought he was too good to be true, but he proved over and over again how golden his heart truly was.

Ryleigh is a force. She doesn’t always think that she is, but she is. She may be scraping by but she is determined to keep going and not give up, no matter what. And though she is dealing with a lot, her heart hasn’t gone cold and cynical. She still has a spark inside her that won’t be put out.

Alexei and Ryleigh’s journey to their HEA is a sweet and fun one that is low on angst and high on ovary exploding moments. This isn’t to say that there aren’t a few bumps in their road, because there are, but they are ones that were expected and I enjoyed how they navigated their way around and through them. The pull between them is there, but it’s Ella ~ the baby ~ who really brings them together by showing the other who they are down to their very cells. The ‘big’ bump in the road wasn’t all that big and I’m kinda meh about it in all honesty, but I really liked where they were at in the end.

This is a sweet, fun and quick read that’s low on drama and high on heart melting moments. We get to catch up with Jane and Weston, as well as Keaton and Slate from Love Machine and even an update on Cam and Natalie from Flirting with Forever and find out what they’ve been up to and that epilogue was all kinds of goodness. So, if you’re looking for an romance that is low on angst, then this is a must click for you!

Spotting a hooker on a city street corner isn’t an abnormal thing.

Me bringing one home? Well, that’s a first.

But this girl . . . she’s in trouble. And the guy she’s talking to isn’t someone she wants to go home with.

So I do the exact thing I shouldn’t—I offer to bring her home with me instead.

She says this is the first time she’s ever done this, which is adorably ironic. Then she proceeds to tell me a sob story about needing money to care for the baby who was left on her doorstep. That’s when my stomach starts to clench. I think she may be telling the truth.

So I do what any respectable man would do. I take her home, stopping to pick up diapers and formula on the way, and discover that she was telling the truth all along.

Christ on a cracker.

I should have just kept walking.

I should have done a thousand other things except for barge into her sad life, offer to fix everything, fall for her . . .
