I LOVED this book so much. Hayley and Trevor have this amazing connection right from the beginning even if she is on a dating hiatus. If you like spirited heroines who give as good as they get you will love this couple.

This is book 2 in the series and it easily stands alone. I actually thought the author wold put H and Perry together but she went in the other direction and it really works. Trevor is very wealthy and is in Dogwood to work with Dane on a house for his dad and stepmom Haley is Dane''s cousin who ended up his nanny but now that he has a girlfriiend he no longer needs Haley so she is sorta freed job wise and she has to decide what she wants to do professionally.

She meets Trevor over a donut and then they realise they have Dane in common. Eventually Trevor convinces her to eat dinner with him while he helps her write a resume. Thats when the fun with these two start. Haley likes rules and well T loves to break them and so starts a fun and beautiful story.

Tangle is the book that you'll tell your friends about. Trust me. I'm telling you about it, arent' I?
I don't even have words to express how much I love this book.
Trevor Kelly is everything. EVERYTHING.
I enjoyed every single moment of Haley and Trevor’s journey and their chemistry was to die for. In true Adriana Locke fashion, she’s given us yet another couple to completely fall in love with!
Haley & Trevor, along with the rest of the Dogwood Lane crew, give me life!! This is THE book that you don't want to miss.
Adriana, you've taken this to an entirely new level. I have never loved a book as much as I love Tangle! I cannot wait for everyone to get this book into their hands<3

If I thought I fell in love with Dogwood Lane in Tumble, I didn’t even know what love was. I mean, this small town filled with these larger than life personalities is working hard on owning my heart. And y’all? I’m not even trying to fight it.

This felt so good! From the perfectly executed sparky banter, to the slowly building scintillating chemistry that burned between Trevor and Haley – every bit of this story was a delight! I don’t even know who I loved more! Honestly, in a rare feat – I think Adriana Locke gave me a heroine that I loved more than I loved the hero. Haley might be one of my favorite heroines...ever. Her dry wit and snappy comebacks combined with her big strong heart and unfailing honesty. Sometimes I felt like I was Haley (or maybe, more to the point, that Haley was all of us), but at every turn I felt like I for sure wanted Haley to be my best friend forever because she was just that awesome.

On top of the massive girl crush I have on Haley, Trevor also heaped on the swoons and set my heart aflutter. He was the perfect match for Haley – their humor played off each other in this sort of fun, flirty way that I find completely irresistible, and there was an undeniable sweetness to the bond they built. Were there moments where I wanted to shake some sense into him? Yes, 100%. But in the end, he straight up won my heart and I could not have loved him any more.

It’s pretty clear I have nothing but love for this book, right? And Trevor and Haley’s romance is just the tip of the iceberg. I loved getting Trevor’s family dynamic and how rewarding that story arc wound up feeling. I loved getting some time with Dane and Neely. Honestly, the whole secondary character game is strong here – which basically just means I am left wanting so much more from these wonderfully dynamic characters and this charming little town. If you're looking for something flirty, fun, and full of heart? Tangle is for you! Definitely recommend!

Who new a doughnut can be the catalyst for romance - LOL. Hayley has had her fill with crappy relationships and decides with the help from her family to not date for a few months. Taking the time for herself, she is literally left with her mouth hanging open when a sexy stranger tries to take the last doughnut she had her eye on. But will the chemistry with Trevor be the end of her dry spell? Or will their thoughts to having a "no Falling in Love" agreement, once again leave Hayley without a lasting romance? With beautifully written characters and a storyline that not only had me laughing out loud but wanting so badly for a HEA this is another fabulous read by Adriana Locke and I cannot wait for more!!

*4 Stars*

ARC kindly received in exchange for an honest review.

I had previously read the first book in this series, and I was excited to see that Adriana was releasing the next book because the people of the Dogwood Lane are awesome.

Wet met Hayley previously because she was Mia's Nanny, assisting Dane while he raised her. So this time, it's her chance at a happily ever after and for us to get to know her.

I really liked Hayley and enjoyed watching her trying to work out how she wants her life to go and to value herself without having a guy attached to her, and instantly falling love, as she's had a habit of in the past.

The moment we meet Trevor, we know he's going to be the one to push her with her new resolutions. He's a great character, a really sweetie, with his own issues he needs to deal with. The bond and chemistry between these two is great, and I really enjoyed watching them get to know one another and learn about themselves at the same time.

There are also some great secondary characters in this, in the form of our faves from Dogwood Lane and also some of Trevors family.

This was a really fun read, and I found myself trying not to laugh out loud in public when I was reading at certain times. Full of humour and chemistry, I would definitely recommend this one.


***Will add review to Amazon AU on release***

I love this author, and this book certainly did not disappoint. From the moment I read about Haley in Dane and Neely’s book, I have loved her. Haley grew so much through this whole story, I was torn between a proud mama and a thrilled best friend. The slow burn through most of the book is exactly what I love to read about. Great job!!

Theres just something about small town romance stories that tug at my heartstrings so badly! I mean who wouldn’t want to be friends with everyone in this book! You will definitely understand what I mean once you read it for yourself!
There was witty banter that makes you giggle, innuendos up the wazoo and the men that cause you to swoon! Seriously heartwarming but may also cause eye seepage in parts!
I loved everything!! This small town romance will give you all the feels! With steamy tension, beautiful friends and great advice I have to say this is one incredibly well written story!
Haley is such a force to be reckoned with! But with great friends that have her back, little does she realize meeting Trevor will go the way it does!
Trevor Kelly....oh goodness me! The whole premise of this book is entertaining and very family oriented!
A story with so much heart, yours may burst and its one that must be read or you are seriously missing out!
Put this on your absolute must read list!!

Trevor Kelly is not looking for love, especially since he doesn't believe in it. Taking a trip to Dogwood Lane to keep an eye on his dad's house that's under construction, all he wants is to be in and out of that tiny town in one week. Haley Raynor, diehard romantic, is having a rough day to say the least, all she needs right now is a doughnut, unfortunately for her that doughnut has already purchased. With their first meeting a little less than pleasant the two continue to bump into each other around town, especially since Haley's cousin Dane is working on the Kelly project. Each agreeing to help the other out, Trevor helping Haley with her resume, and Haley helping Trevor be more direct with what he wants from relationships. A no falling in love contract is scribbled on a napkin. How hard can it be?

I adored this book, even more than Tumble. Trevor is so charming and smooth, totally and completely irresistible, wiggling his way in. Haley not being afraid to set boundaries, fight back and get to the point when an issue arrives, are all qualities that I love. "Doughnuts make me smile, people don't", that line had me laughing, and honestly, I feel that in my soul, Hayley and I could 100% be friends based on that alone. Their banter was so cute and entertaining, and that almost kiss and their chemistry was amazing. I really love books set in small towns, this is a fantastic follow up to Tumble.

I loved tumble the first book but wow this book was even better!

I think for me this is now one of my favourite Adrianna books. I have a couple but this is up with my favourite swink and Crank!

Hayley is so funny and Trevor wow I love him! There relationship was so natural and funny. I loved how they all came around and I want more stories for Penn, Matt and Claire. I love for them all to get stories as I think without them it will make the series incomplete!

I loved that it didn’t take long for Trevor to figure things out and I loved that Hayley was strong and knew her worth! Both strong characters and sweet. They deserved each other and I loved the ending.

I thought the first book, Tumble, was a decent small town second chance novel, but I feel like Tangle is a GREAT small town love story. Although I honestly found Haley to be annoying at times (seriously stop throwing straight up temper tantrums over donuts, you are an adult) I still appreciated her feistiness and hopefulness for the future. I quite enjoyed Trevor even when I was wondering why he was attracted to an adult woman who was throwing a temper tantrum in public over a donut. He was honest and reliable, even as he was warning her away. It was sweet, sexy, and enjoyable. I can’t wait for Penn’s story!

I liked this book it was funny and sexy. I liked that one was a romantic while the other was not. These two were on opposite sides of love. I had so much fun watching them fall in love. What a great read, I really enjoy when I can laugh and swoon during a book.

Omg could this book be any better? I thought Tumble was amazing? Well it was but I’m so in love with Trevor and Haley.
How adorably sweet this book was. The flirty banter was too cute, the contract cracked me up. They had their hilarious moments for sure. these two had some serious sparks flying and it was such a slow beautiful burn. I loved everything about this book. I’m loving this series and these characters. So much heart. Loving this small town, I wish I could just go for a walk on Dogwood lane and meet up with Clair and Haley.
This book doesn’t lack anything, the writing, the storytelling, the characters, it’s all there and it couldn’t be any better. I’m just gushing over these books. I can’t wait for Penn’s book.

Sweet romance following Haley Raynor, an idealistic romantic, who is in love with love, as she tries desperately not to fall in love with Trevor Kelly, a self confessed commitment phobe who thinks there is no such thing as true love. They meet, they feel the mutual attraction, and they leave well alone. Not for long though. A contract on a napkin sees to that. Wonderful words, beautifully written, a story that’s funny and sexy, two people made for each other, and a super cute, successful, sexy book boyfriend who can’t see the wood for the trees. I loved it, it was entertaining, addictive, a light easy read, perfect for the beach. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

This is my first time reading a book by this author! But it will not be my last I loved this book so much can I give it 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I loved Haley and Trevor so much!! I can’t believe this romance began over a doughnut and a contract to not fall in love but end up in love so good

I loved this book. I loved watching Haley grow into herself and figure out what she wants from life. Haley had one of the best character developments I have seen in a book in a long time. I also loved seeing Trevor deal with the two sides of himself on the stance of falling in love, it was written so truthfully. I loved the angst and humor in Trevor and Haley's relationship, but watching their relationship grow was amazing. Overall I loved this book and I'm so excited for the next book in the series.

Oh how do I put into words my love for this book? I was expecting to really enjoy this book because hello Adriana Locke, she's one of all time favorite authors! Instead I am blown away!!! It started with a doughnut, the one Haley wanted but Trevor had. That's when we see how feisty and sassy Haley is. She is awesome! Trevor, never gonna settle down, doesn't believe in love, Trevor. He doesn't know what hit him. It was an absolute joy to watch their story unfold. Get ready to laugh, maybe get a little teary, and you will definitely swoon.

I absolutely loved this story! I related so much to Haley and her desire to find love. I saw so much of myself in her. Adriana does an excellent job of creating both a heroine looking for love but being a strong woman at the same time. My favorite love stories are those where the hero thinks he doesn’t want love and then meets his match in the heroine and falls to his knees. That’s this story. Trevor doesn’t believe in one love for a lifetime while Haley believes in the fairy tale. Can Haley get Trevor to believe in love? You’ll have to read to find out. ;) Because how Adriana unfolds the story is epic and slow burn and so incredibly sweet. Now I can’t wait for the next books in this series!

Trevor Kelly is the ultimate anti love specimen, watching him unfold and grow and fall in love was so amazing!!!! This book is worth so many more than 5 stars! Adriana Locke brings her A game, as usual, with this Amazing second installment of the Dogwood Lane series!!!!

In my opinion, you should absolutely hurry to your preferable book retailer and indulge in this beauty. Reading the back and forth between Trevor and Haley, is witty, fun and will keep you up wanting more!!! Hurry, go get it, you can thank me later 😉

Trevor is always willing to give his girl some insight, “let me give you a little insight into the mind of a man,” he says, twisting to face me. “When a man tells you that you look pretty, he means it. And odds are it has very little to do with your shirt.” The man thinks he's a comedian, “is this a sexual hangover? I eff you three times and you wake up sick? I’ve heard this happens.” I liked this book, I loved Trevor.

THIS book!!! If there is only one book that you read all year, this should be it! Be still my small town, country loving heart! I fell in love with Trevor Kelly instantly. He is exactly what romance book dreams are made of. The journey to HEA for Trevor and Haley was so incredibly endearing. Everything about this story touched my heart. It is sexy, heartbreaking, heartmending, and will give you all of the feels. It is no secret that I devour any and everything that Adriana Locke publishes. This book though? It now sits securely at my absolute favorite #1 book of all time. Even the supporting characters in this book are amazing! You get to follow up with Dane (Haley's cousin) and Neely (Dane's wife) from Tumble (Book 1 in the series), Claire (waitress at the Dogwood Cafe), Jake (Trevor's brother), Penn (Dane's best friend) and Grace (Haley's best friend). I have already read this book twice. I loved it THAT much! I wouldn't change a single thing about this book. Except maybe the "The End" part because I could've read about this 2 endlessly. One of my absolute favorite parts of this book:
When I saw you at the cafe, I was scared to touch you.
Then I touched you and I was scared to have you.
Then I had you and I was scared to love you. And now I love you and it's like winning the best prize in the entire universe. No, the best prize will be when I finally convince you to have my baby.
Love me forever, will you?
I mean, MAJOR SWOON!!! How can you not fall in head over heels love with this man?!?! Of course, there are books that you read and like or even love. Then there are books that you connect with, devour in one sitting and even though their story is wrapped up perfectly, you still crave more. That is what this book did for me! I cannot wait for the next book in this series and of course to see more of Trevor and Haley along the way. Adriana brought these characters life and made them so real that you wish that you actually knew these people. She is an absolute master at small town romance and this book, for me is her very best yet!!! I cannot recommend this book more. Grab it ASAP and fall in love with Trevor, Haley and the rest of the Dogwood Lane crew!!!!
