5 'Grease and Starch' stars

Kiss My Boots was everything I expected it to be and so much more. This second chance romance was done right.

Quinn met the love of her life when she was eleven years old in Tate. She and Tate shared their first kiss when they were fifteen and gave each other everything they had when they were eighteen. and then Tate the summer ended and Tate went off to med school completely disappearing without a phone call or an explanation, abandoning and shattering Quinn. Now 9 years later Tate is back in hopes of winning back the only woman he has ever loved but was forced to give up.

There are several aspects to this novel that I loved.

Quinn is not only a tomboy but also a bad ass...she is also a well-respected mechanic who loves and takes her job very serious. It's not ever day there is a novel with a female protagonist who isn't afraid to get her hands a little greasy.

The angst factor was there but it was low with this novel. After reading Lost Rider and seeing the high angst factor (which I loved) I was scared Kiss My Boots was going to be the same. In Lost Rider, Quinn was perceived to be tough as nails and a Hell Raiser, I was hoping to get that same side of her in Kiss My Boots and I'm happy to announce...<b>THE HELL RAISER HAS RETURNED IN FULL FORCE!!</b>

A lot of the times Second Chance romances are told to quick for my liking. Example: Guy disappears for years than reappears, girl doesn't put up much of a fight to let him back in.Not only did Quinn have to go to battles with her own heart but Tate had to step up and confront Quinn's older Brothers (Maverick & Clay).  Tate actually had to put the time and effort in to make Quinn see him for the man he is now. Even though....Tate's reasoning behind his disappearing act was totally justified.

I loved how protective Clay and Maverick are of their sister. I loved the familial feel to this small town romance. and lets not forget the sisterhood between Quinn and Leigh is stronger than ever!

I freaking adored this novel as you can tell from above. I honestly can say that Quinn's story is my favorite....so far....I'm still waiting on Clay's story and I have a feeling his is going to be a doozy on my heart. I have mad love for Clay and am dying to see his tough ass find a woman and settle down.

I highly recommend Kiss My Boots!

This is the second book in this new series by Harper Sloan and it proved to be just as great as the first book! The theme is similar as book 1---young love torn apart and then given a second chance. However, the story is fresh and Quinn and Tate have some bigger unresolved issues than Mav and Leighton had.

I love that this author writes such strong heroines. Quinn is a tomboy as heart but can be girly when she wants. She needs her BFF time but like to let it all hang out and party sometimes as well. She runs that family automotive business. Quin puts up a very good front though, for everyone. She is sassy and strong willed and lends a fair bit of humor to the story whatever scene she is involved in. But in her heart there is some squishiness and some softer moments that very few people get to see. Her brothers are two of those people. And the love of her young life, Tate, would be the third.

Tate broke her heart and after years away, has come back to claim what he sees is his. Quinn is going to give him a run for the money! Enjoyable read from cover to cover. It was great to see Mav and Leighton again and some sneaky looks at what big brother Clay may have coming his way. Hopefully an HEA!

This was the second book in this series. If you haven't read the first one please don't go on reading this review.
This series is such a beautiful one. It's all about Sibling Love, Family doesn't only have to be by blood, Sacrifice and Forgiveness.

We met Quinn in the previous book because she is Maverick's baby sister. We already know the heart Breaking, Horrible past these siblings have been through. But seeing it from each one's own perspective and witnessing their battles in different ways is utterly soul crushing. They each have lost so much by what their parents did to them then loosing their partners.

But as we know that these are second chance books so we know that just like their horrid pasts come back to haunt them and be dealt with so they can move on to start living, so does the love interest.
They never make them work more than they have to and once they know the reasoning and understand nothing stands in their way. Tate Montgomery is the man that helps Quinn heal and love again. He is such an amazingly beautifully crafted Hero. I was so enamoured with this man and his will to fight for Quinn.

They are so made for each other. They are the typical example of What God puts together No Man can Tear apart. Their love is pure, giving and compassionate. Their love is protection and strength. It will reach you right to the Depths of your Being.

This book will crush you. But I promise quick or slowly, however you wanna see it I promise you will be mended with a huge arse smile on your face.... And if that doesn't show how beautiful this story is then maybe Me Blushing like a nun from all the Hot, Flaming Hot sex scenes will tell you how powerful their chemistry is. It is Off The Charts.

As always I love getting to see the Brothers. I also have to say this one was more touching and real than Mav's book. This is definitely my favourite from the two.

I hope you love it as much as I did.
Enjoy!!!!

Jesus Jones this was awesome.

I have to say I was dying to read this book after the first which was so good as well. I really wanted Quinn's books I knew she was very sassy and so funny so I was super happy she was next. Even though I dying for Clay's book to. This author is one of my favourites and alway knows how to make u want more.

So this book is Quinn and Tate. Like I said Quinn is super sassy and so funny she as really kept her brothers on there toes she doesn't let them away with a thing. But her brothers mean the world to her after her mum leaving them when she was very young she as had to deal with a lot and she is still dealing. Tate didn't make things better she knew Tate years ago when he came to Pine Oaks to visit his grandparents in the summer so they got super close over the years. Things were goin great it was the best summer ever until Tate had to go. He made promises to her but never kept them and she didn't hear from him again until now.

Tate is a great guy and very sexy doctor. Things have been goin ok for Tate but could be so much better. He as a good job but there was one thing that was missing in his life and after 9 years away it was time to get it back. He has stayed away long enough he can't do it anymore.

My heart went out to these 2 in this book. There story is so good I enjoyed it so much. I m a sucker for a second chance romance. From page one I new I was goin to luv it. There was so many funny parts with nicknames for each other to names for cars and Quinn standing up to her brothers it was so funny and there was actually loads more. But there were so sad moments the things Quinn and Tate had to deal with was hard they just had to deal as best they could with what had happened.

I would highly recommend this book. The first was good but I think book was even better and I know Clay's book is just goin to be as good I can't wait for that. I luvd everything about this book there is a great story that's flows well throughout. You have sexy cowboys and doctors also strong women how can put these alpha cowboys and doctor in there place. Which they do need it at times. Overall I just really enjoyed this and I m looking forward to more from this series and author.

Kiss My Boots was an easy, but angsty second chance romance in Harper Sloan’s Coming Home Series. This is the second book in the series, but can be read as a standalone.

This book was enjoyable, but it didn’t WOW me. As I was reading this book I kept waiting for some drama to excite the storyline a little more. It never really came. Yes she had some drama in there but I guess it wasn’t what I was expecting. There were times I felt the storyline dragged a little slowing down the pace of the story. With that said I would still recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of the second chance romance.

This story follows the love between Quinn and Tate. Quinn is the younger sister of Maverick and Clay. She runs the Auto Body shop the family owns and has been in love with Tate ever since they were young and he would come to town to visit his grandparents. They had a sweet love brewing over the summers he would visit, until one summer he just left without a word. Cutting all contact with Quinn. She was heartbroken but also didn’t know how to move on. Now 9 years later Tate is resurfacing and moving back to Oak Pine to take over his grandpa’s medical practice. Oh and he is determined to get Quinn back!!! Will Quinn be able to forgive him?? Can Tate make Quinn fall in love with him again?? What happens when the Past doesn’t stay in the past?? Read their story to find out the answers.

Kiss My Boots is a standalone novel told from Dual POV. It is part of an interconnected series. The storylines are all completed and there are NO Cliffhangers. We do see past characters from the first book in this story, but you don’t have to read Lost Rider first to enjoy this story. I enjoyed catching up with Leighton and Maverick. I also liked seeing more of Clay, I look forward to his book next.

This book is definitely for the reader who likes a second chance romance. Also if you are a fan of Harper Sloan’s you don’t want to miss this book.

Quinn Davis is one hell-raising, strong as hell, take no crap from nobody kind of girl who is lost and looking for that one piece to make her whole again. Her whole life she's felt like people have abandoned her for one reason or another.

Then her world is tuned upside down by one phone call from a certain man she never expected to hear from again.

Tate Montgomery is the sexy as hell, cowboy doctor who just wants to get back to the Texas town where he felt like he belonged and called home. He's also hoping that his Quinn is still there and willing to give them a try again. You see he has always loved her even though he left and has a good excuse why. Questions are asked and answers are given but she is not making it easy for him to win her heart and love back.

As you read, all you can do is cheer them on and hope like hell they can get past all the issues.

I can't wait for the last book in this series to see what Harper has planned for the next Davis sibling.

I was blown away with this book. It is one of my all time top books. I love when the leading female has a job that is mainly for males.
Quinn might just be my new hero. Why? She stands up for herself to conquer her remaining ghosts holding her back. Also because she is a car mechanic. It's not an occupation you usually associate with women. Having grown up around my dad's shop I can totally relate to her love of fixing cars. She does fantastic work with any vehicle she gets her hands on. Quinn is a hell-raiser of a feisty, lovable, emotional, loyal woman. The love and support from those around her help strengthen her when she faces her ghosts.
Tate is a lady doctor that all the women are after. Sadly for them his heart only belongs to one person. After some potholes show up in his life path he has to figure out how to navigate the road. His loyalty to those he loves showed me how strong his heart really is.

Quinn & Tate's story gave my so much angst while reading.. I felt like the ball would drop for them. These two held strong and true through the entire story. I really love the Coming Home series and cannot wait for the next book. ~ Elizabeth ~ White Hot Reads

Quintessential - adjective
1. of the pure and essential essence of something.
2. of or relating to the most perfect embodiment of something.

Quinn is the quintessential hell-raiser! This girl is a total bad-ass; but behind her tough exterior she is guarded and has so much love to share. Too bad Tate took her heart away 9 years ago and never gave it back. So when he come back to town on a mission to get his girl, she gives him Hell... and he loves every minute of it.

Tate is a protector and a fighter; and he has loved and will love Quinn to the end of the earth and back. This man kept himself away from her and her family to protect them all; when you see the reactions of this family to this you will fall more in love with them.

Ohh Mrs. Sloan Give us more!!!!!

5 Stars

I loved this book it was funny and sweet.

Quinn and Tate have history, they spent many summers together growing up and at some point, fell in love, but then one summer Tate never comes back and doesn’t answer Quinn’s calls or texts.

Fast forward nearly 10 years later and Quinn is running her Dad’s auto shop, she doesn’t date much and relies on her two brothers and her best friend for support.

Tate has spent these long years away from Tate wishing there was something he could do to get her back but his Father had other ideas.

When Tate’s Grandfather passes away, Tate is seemingly “set free” and decides to move to Pine Oak and work at getting the only girl he ever loved back.

These two have some seriously hot chemistry and Quinn is a firecracker, there story is set to be an interesting one and something you shouldn’t miss out on.

Book 2 in the Coming Home Series and I would have to say this looks like it's shaping up to another winning series from Harper Sloan. In book one we got glimpses of Quinn Davis and I'm so glad this sassy tomboy got her own book, growing up with two overprotective brothers and no mother wasn't easy but she always thought Tate Montgomery would be there for her, that was till he disappeared and didn't return her calls or letters. Things are not always what they seem and when Tate comes back to town to start his own doctors practice will Quinn listen to what he has to say or will she tell him "Kiss my Boots" !
This is a true love story, it's about family values, loyalty and friendship, its hot and it has just the right amount of humour that will have you giggling to yourself. Great job Harper Sloan, looking forward to book three in this great series.

Kiss My Boots by Harper Sloan
"A country second chance romance, 5 stars"

Tate and Quinn fell for each other during the summers growing up. They started out as friends, who turned to lovers over time, only for them to be torn apart. Quinn has no idea what happened with Tate, it was like he fell off the face of the earth. But one thing was for sure, there was no other person who was meant to be hers then him. So she gave up trying, until she comes across a message from Tate about him needing some work done.
Tate has only ever loved one person, Quinn. He's had to keep his distance for her and others he cares about. Although now he doesn't have to keep his distance, the ties have been cut and he is free to return home and get the girl. He's a doctor she's a mechanic, they may be opposites, but they burn hotter then the sun. Will they finally get the happily ever after they have always wanted with each other?
I usually don't read country romances, but I am so glad I read Kiss My Boots. the conversation was funny, all the characters were on point, I loved the dynamic between Quinn and her brothers, it just hit all the points for me. It wasn't as vulgar as most of the stories I read, but it didn't take away from the story. Here are a couple quotes that stuck with me;

"It felt like my life was one giant muddin’ trail right after the rain. You know that moment when the divots are the deepest and the mud just reaches up, grabs hold of your tires, and won’t let go? You could spin those sons of bitches for hours and not get any traction. That’s where my life had been."

"I fall asleep dreaming of waterfalls and a home built with pure love that nothing in the whole world could ever tear down. I’d always thought home was a place, but he’s right : our home is right here, in each other’s arms."

Plot- 5/5
Characters- 5/5
Heat- 5/5
Writing style- 5/5
Overall- 5/5

Sometimes a girl just needs to talk about her man problems to a friend, “he may have tried to stop me, but he didn’t get past the porch. I reckon that’s because he realized he was wearin’ nothin’ but his tight-as-he** briefs, a devil-smile, and an erection.” Tate sure is sweet with his words, “I’m two seconds away from comin’ in my pants, Quinn. Let me up before the front of my jeans are just as wet as my ***.” I adored this book, Tate was dreamy and Quinn that girl was a hoot.

5 Star Review Kiss My Boots (Coming Home #2) by Harper Sloan

The second in the series and another winner in my humble opinion. This is the story of Quinn Davis and Tate Montgomery. I fell for Quinn's character in the previous book, what a feisty, loyal, independent woman she is and I was intrigued to know what had made her into the woman she is today, now I know, Tate Montgomery.

Quinn has always had to fight for what she wanted. Abandoned by her mother, a father who was a tyrant and looked after by over protective brothers who adore her, she has not had an easy life. Throw in a broken heart and Quinn is determined that no man, least of all the man responsible for said broken heart, will touch her heart again, or is she?

Tate Montgomery used to spend his summers with his grandparents in Pine Oak, Texas; it's where he met and fell for Quinn Davis. Now needing sanctuary and finally free from the ties that kept him away, he has returned to the one place he always felt at home.

Quinn has always had a hard time trusting and when Tate broke her heart she closed herself off from love. When Tate realises what he has lost and that returning to Pine Oak is more for Quinn than he initially realized, he soon finds he has a hard road to travel to regain her trust and love.

It was obvious that there was a great deal of attraction and unresolved feelings between Quinn and Tate, in fact their encounters are filled with passion almost to the point of exploding.

Can Quinn forgive Tate for the hurt he caused her? Does she still have feelings for him? Can they make this second chance at love work or will the past get in their way?

Ms. Sloan is a writer I have followed for several years, Kiss My Boots is a well written and beautiful story about a second chance at love and in my humble opinion Harper Sloan nailed it.

I am so looking forward to the next book in this series. I voluntarily reviewed this book which I received from the publisher through Netgalley.

"I feel him all the way to my bones with this kiss. He's branding himself into my very soul, and I know without a shadow of a doubt I will always feel him there."

"If she forgot how to love me, I'll remind her. Whatever it takes. No more regrets."

"It doesn't matter that there is still so much unknown between us because of the years that have passed. What matters is what I'm feeling. Accepted. Wanted. Whole. Because of him."

"Always knew it would be a wild and unpredictable ride with you, Grease."

Boy, oh boy, what a great second chance romance. Kiss My Boots is the latest installment of the Coming Home Series and it follows the story of Quinn and Tate. When Tate left Quinn nearly 9 years ago, he didn't only break her heart, but shattered her faith in love and men. So, she's just been living life her own way; focusing on work and never getting attached. Little did she know that Tate was about to blow back into town and shake things up again.....There's only one place where Tate ever felt like he truly belonged and that was in Texas with the woman who captured his heart. But, life had other plans and stole Tate away from Quinn. Over the years, his love for her never went away and if anything, it only grew stronger. Now, the time has come for Tate to return home, to start over and win back the woman he did wrong. And this time, he wouldn't be letting her go without a fight.....

Kiss My Boots is a delicious and swoon worthy read. From the moment I picked up this book, I was hooked on Quinn and Tate's story. Quinn is a total badass and a woman after my own heart. She is strong, fierce and isn't afraid to get her hands dirty. She is protective of her heart and doesn't let anyone get too close to her. And Tate...Tate is one delicious man. He is all that and a bag of chips. He is sexy, swoon-worthy and isn't afraid to go after what he wants. He is 100% devoted to Quinn and is ready to show her just the kind of man that he can be.

Kiss My Boots is a story of a young love that marks your soul. The kind of story that just can't help, but root for the characters to not only find their happily ever after, but to fight to hold on to it. It is also a story of forgiveness and fresh starts. With real characters that are easy to connect with and a swoon worthy story-line, Kiss My Boots is one book that is not to be missed.
