This origins story for new Bailey’s Brothers series is EVERYTHING! Protecting you sets the foundation for new series and is the story of young love that will have to overcome a heartbreaking adversity. We have met Grace previously in the Miles family series when she found her half siblings; and while it is not necessary to start with the Miles family, I would certainly recommend those amazing books.
In Protecting You we get a glimpse into Grace’s and Asher’s younger years and see the evolution of their childhood friendship into young love.
We get introductions to the five Bailey brothers, their Gram and learn about their upbringing; as well as their and Grace’s families dynamics and circumstances.
Claire Kingsley has an extraordinary gift for story telling; and Protecting You is an exciting promise for what’s to come. I can’t wait to see Grace’s and Asher’s love story to continue and look forward to visiting with old friends from Salishan Cellars; as well as getting to know a new cast of characters in the Bailey Brothers series.

Unraveling Him is Book 3 in the Bailey’s brothers series; you do want to read them in order.
As always, we are gifted with a captivating story line, amazing, well developed characters, epic banter, pranks, humor, love, bit of suspense, swoon and the steam! In true Bailey vs. Haven fashion we also experience some hilarious shenanigans. All these ingredients add up to one fantastic book!
“Bravery isn’t the absence of fear,” I said, surprising myself with my reply. “It’s feeling fear and doing it anyway.”
I absolutely adored Fiona, she is the perfect heroine for Evan. They’ve both experienced loss and adversity in their lives and chose their own path of dealing with the painful history.
Fiona is the sunshine to Evan’s broody gloominess and together they are PERFECTION!
As Fiona tries to find herself and her place in the world, she has to make some difficult decisions; she also makes some unexpected alliances and she comes across bits of historical information that may be relevant to the Eliza Bailey mystery and possibly shed some light on the origins of the Bailey/Haven feud.
Throughout this story we get to catch up with our beloved characters from previously published novels and I could not recommend this awesome book enough. It’s a definite MUST read for me!

Rushing In is book 4 in the Bailey Brothers series; and while it is a story of one couple, complete with their HEA, it needs to be read in order as the series has a mystery interwoven throughout.

Loved this second installment of Bootleg Springs series!! I wish I could visit Bootleg Springs for vacation. It’s such and adorable and quirky little town with great residents and so many fun activities to participate in. Can’t wait for the next book.
The Bootleg Springs series is written by two beautiful geniuses who get better with age like wine and cheese. I would like to buy them both very expensive luxury never ending supply of tacos so they never have to leave their writing caves:-)
Bourbon Bliss is book 4 in Bootleg Springs series and I would recommend reading these series in order. While Bourbon Bliss is its own story with HEA for June and GT, there is an underlying mystery running through the series and will not be completely resolved until book 6. The Bootleg Spring series is amazingly written, with extremely well developed charachters and every time a new book comes out I get lost in the story and feel as if I am transported to Bootleg and hang out with my best friends. The characters are so real, you feel like you’ve known them growing up and are visiting back in your home town. If you like your romance sweet, swooney, steamy and with a bit of mystery, you are going to love Bourbon Bliss!

Highball Rush is the fantastic finale of a phenomenal series! A match made in romance readers heaven, two literary geniuses - Claire Kingsley and Lucy Score - getting together and gifting us with this amazingly funny, suspenseful, steamy rom-com series with all the feels! Highball Rush is book 6 in the Bootleg Spring series, and while each book is a story of a couple with their own HEA, there is an underlying mystery woven through the entire series and doesn’t get resolved until book six. You will want to start with book one, and I promise you - you will not be disappointed! I’ve anxiously awaited each new installment in the series and tremendously enjoyed all six books. Bootleg Springs is a quirky little town where everyone knows everybody’s business, but also where everyone will stand up for each other and help their own. I loved meeting all the characters over the past year and feel as if they’ve become close friends. I’d love nothing more than to vacation in Bootleg Springs, visiting and having fun at the bonfire by the lake with the Bodines. In Highball Rush we witness the last Bodine brother find his forever love; and the interwoven mystery unravels in a dramatic culmination of events as danger lurks around. Claire Kingsley has masterfully brought the series home with captivating story line, relatable and remarkably well developed characters and just the right amount of swoon, steam and laugh out loud fun!
Bravo!!!

Fighting for Us is the story of Grace Miles and Asher Bailey. It starts as Asher is unexpectedly granted clemency and released from prison one year sooner than expected.
Coming back home to stay with his Grandmother, Asher struggles with the transition and the fact he did not have time to mentally prepare for his release. He has a lot of pent up anger and many anxieties as he reintegrates back to life outside of the confinement.
Grace has been relentlessly working on remodeling hers and Asher’s “dream” house and awaiting his return back home. What she did not expect, was the rejection she received when they first see each other again. Asher is no longer the man he was when he first proposed to Grace and he did not expect her still wearing his ring.
Throughout this masterfully told tale of adjustments and second chances we get introduced to all Bailey brothers and Grace’s feisty best friend Cara; and we catch up with our favorite characters from the beloved Miles family series.
We have been anxiously waiting for Asher’s and Grace’s story for some time, and Claire Kingsley did not disappoint! She has a gift of extraordinary story telling and paints a vivid picture of the characters that has you feeling the feelings alongside with the protagonists.
Fighting for Us has it all - love, heartbreak, humor, steam and swoon and the story is EVERYTHING!!!!
