Nicole's Book Musings
4.5 Stars I was completely ensnared by this book. One of the reasons was the heroine Cora. She's unique and a very strong character. Then you add in Braxton you just have a recipe for a great story. I felt the chemistry between the two. There are moments that I teared up in this book. It did bring out emotions in me, The reason the brothers are opening the spa just tugs at my heart. Over all this book is truly beautiful. I can't wait for the next book.

Caught Up In You is the 2nd book in the Monroes series from Jules Bennett. Braxton has always been the peacemaker of the 3 brothers, and remains the go between much of the time between Liam and Zach. I absolutely loved these 3 such different brothers are working together to make their sister Chelsea's women-only spa dream come to fruition. Cora Buchanan is nothing like I had in my mind for the massage therapist for the spa, and even less so for Braxton, yet I quickly found myself knowing she was absolutely perfect for both. The fact that she is blind threw me a bit at first, but she is such a strong woman, I loved that she wanted to be so independent. I also absolutely adored that Braxton not only accepted her being blind, but also made sure he went out of his way to show he supported her independence. Yes he is still protective of her, but in a loving way, not in a condescending way. The chemistry between Cora and Braxton was there from the very first time she gave him a massage. I loved that while they took things relatively slowly, Braxton went out of his way to give Cora as normal a courtship as possible. Seriously loved he took her swimming and let her drive in a big field. I can't imagine losing my sight, but can totally understand missing such every day activities. I think Braxton romanced Cora every bit as much with his actions as his kisses and lovemaking. I liked getting to see Braxton, Liam, and Zach spend more time together. Because of their past, the relationship the brothers are developing now are every bit as important to the story. In fact I love seeing the guys spend time together just as much as I love seeing each of the romances develop. Caught Up In You was such a beautiful romance. I absolutely adored watching Cora and Braxton fall in love. Jules Bennett gives her readers another winner with Caught Up In You. I highly recommend this story to all readers who love contemporary romances. Rating: 4 Stars (B+) Review copy provided by publisher

This author takes the reader to small town Georgia where we are introduced to Braxton Monroe and his family and his encounter with Cora and her seeing eye dog. These two work to find their paths together while Cora feels she must keep her independence. Enjoyed the southern small town setting and family. Will be looking for the other books in the series. Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.
