Book Review | Stay With Me

Stay With Me by Brooke Montgomery is now live on Amazon! Read today in Kindle Unlimited.

A best friend’s brother stand-alone from small-town romance author Brooke Montgomery about a girl who falls pregnant by the wrong man and the cowboy who takes her in…

I’ve crushed on my best friend’s brother for years.

He’s a six-foot-three, dark-haired cowboy who works on his family’s ranch and sends butterflies to my stomach anytime he looks at me. But he’s never made a move, so I need to get over it.

Except, when he reads a text message about me liking a mysterious guy, he snaps and demands answers. Little does he know, it’s my code name for him.

When he finally confesses he likes me too, I find out I’m pregnant. With my ex-boyfriend’s baby.

After spending three weeks together in secret, my world turns upside down when that little white stick reveals a positive sign from the one-night stand I had before him. 

Now everything’s a mess and my life’s spiraling out of control.

I can’t expect him to date me anymore, so I insist we return to being friends. The last thing he needs is a girl who’s carrying another man’s baby and about to be a first-time mom.

But when my apartment gets broken into, and there’s a suspected criminal on the loose, he insists I move in with him to keep me safe. 

Staying platonic proves to be harder with each passing day as he goes with me to my appointments, takes me baby shopping, and stocks the kitchen with all my weird cravings. He’s so involved that everyone assumes he’s the father. And I don’t correct them.

But the truth always comes out in a Southern small town.

Stay With Me is book 2 in the Sugarland Creek series. Each book in this Southern, small town series is a stand-alone and ends in a happily ever after.

Audio Review:

I received an ALC in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Everything I’ve said in my original review still rings true. But let me tell you, listening to Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood bring Tripp and Magnolia to life was such a great experience. They did such a fantastic job. I honestly couldn’t imagine any other narrators voicing these two. Re-reading this on audio was such a pleasure.

Rating: 4 out of 5.

My Original Review:

I received an eARC in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I can’t tell you how excited I was to read this book. It’s been on my anticipated reads for 2024 since I finished book one in this series. Tripp and Magnolia are so perfect for each other in all the ways that you could possibly think. Tripp is absolutely precious, selfless, caring, protective, and anything else you could possibly think of for a great book boyfriend! Magnolia is so authentic to herself, confident, strong, kind, and is unbelievably hard-working. They compliment each other so well and have fantastic chemistry. I loved seeing their relationship bloom into something so beautiful from beginning to end. I highly recommend reading this book, as well as the other books in the series. It’s not required to read the other books, but I highly recommend it! If you’re looking for a sweet, small town romance, that’ll give you all the feels this is a book for you!
