Love You So Sweetly: A Small Town, Gay Awakening, MM Romance

A small town, gay awakening MM romance. Another Tara Lain easy to read, page-turner that hits all the right buttons with its mix of humour, sweetness and romance. An ideal story to escape into and leave the real world behind for a while. Remy and Harper couldn't be more different, sophisticated LA billionaire/ small town, rural Arkansas, rich/poor, Remy has a girlfriend/Harper has a boyfriend.

Remy and Harper were very sweet together. As both have partners when they meet I was a bit worried there would be cheating, but there isn't.Remy, features in another book where we meet his gruff brother and larger than life mother. He works too hard and is hiding from the truth of his sexuality, until he meets Harper.Harper is great but just a little too good at everything and a little too..... Nice.Although it's a charming story, it is a little idealistic for me but is a solid 4 stars

This is a great addition to the series. Great to catch up with characters from previous stories. Harper and Remy are a really likeable pair and it was a delight to join them on the journey to their HEA.

3.5 stars-I was given a copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.This story is sweet, angsty and full of Southern Charm. It’s the story of a wealthy tech CEO and the assistant he doesn’t quite mean to fall in love with. Remy Merced’s family is powerful and his meddling mother is a formidable force. But her meddling does bring Harper into Remy’s life and soon Remy can’t be sure whether Harper is better for Remy’s business or his heart.Harper is a small town Southern boy who quickly learns that Southern California is a whole new world. By the time he realises he may have made a mistake when he moved West on a whim, he has grown attached to his job at Merced - and to Remy himself. I really love Harper’s brains, his drive, and his complete naivety. Remy is only a couple of years older than Harper, but running his own business has given him experience and made him more than a little bit jaded. I love how the combination of Harper’s ideas and Remy’s experience are the key to business success.While I did really enjoy the slow burn romance between Harper and Remy, I have to say that the plot to this story is unnecessarily sprawling and messy. For a romance, there are times there is far too much focus on Remy’s internal family politics. At other times, there is far too much focus on Remy’s business. Themes and observations about small town economies and the barriers to internet expansion make things even more complicated. Add in the partners that both Remy and Harper start the book with and there is just way too much going on in a single book.So. The strength of this story lies in the romance and the characters. The weaknesses are in the burgeoning, messy plots that weave around the central romance. I think British readers will laugh as I did when I compared my regular online Tesco shops to the experience Harper and Remy give their customers. I can’t help thinking that maybe we need a little bit of Southern charm with our grocery deliveries over here too!

This book perfectly lives up to it's title and is a perfectly sweet read.Remy and Harper are an adorable couple who have to stand up for what they want and do what's needed for the good of the company that Remy's family owns and Harper has come to work for.Remy has a lot to work through for himself in regards to his sexuality but Harper is too adorable and cute to ignore. There's a lot going on as well in regards to work stress and his current relationship being highly unsatisfactory. I love Remy's mum. She's the ultimate Southern dame, the head of the company and very involved in her son's lives even taking the step to be the one to hire Harper. There is a great, supportive relationship between her and Remy.Harper is a small town boy come to thrive in the big city. He now has the job but is really thinking things over when it comes to his current relationship. His new boss, Remy brings up all sorts of new feelings but he's determined to do right by himself.The development of Remy and Harper's relationship feels quite natural even though things happen quite quickly for them. There's a great story line along side their relationship with the decline/closure of some of the company food stores, including in Harper's home town. It's interesting reading behind the scenes and how the minds work in trying to come up with ideas. There's a lot of stress and turmoil for the MC's but it's balanced with family and friends, affection and values.I love this series and this is a perfect addition. Lovable characters and an enjoyable story so well written by Tara Lain. Definitely a recommended read!I received an ARC and am happily giving a review.

I fell in love with these characters from the word go. Remy has achieved great things in his life, while Harper is hoping that working for Remy will help to establish his career.Remy isn't gay, or is he? Even if he is, he's never thought twice to act on it, because he's so busy. But with Harper tempting him day in and day out just with his nearness, he can't help but wonder what's going on.I loved the humour and working relationship between Remy and Harper, I liked the way in which the tension built up between them. After they meet, what follows is a story full of twists and turns, and two guys falling in love in the midst of all the chaos.As usual, very well written, with incredibly likeable MCs and enjoyable secondary characters. The plot was interesting, drew me in and kept me reading. The banter between Remy and Harper was snarky, sexy and fun. It's a slow burn romance, but when the MCs connect, it's hawt! I found the ending incedibly sweet and satisfying. 4 and a half stars.I received an ARC of this book, which in no way influenced my opinion.

Well written story and well written characters! Remi is a billionaire. He lives for work and only work. Oh, and his mother. He has a girlfriend, sort of. But no really love in his life but his business. Mother has decided to change that by getting him an assistant.

This adorable story gives us the up and down, hot and not relationship between a rich, sexually confused, handsome business man Remy, and country raised, openly gay, cute Harper. Together at first they try to solved a business problem, I have to admit that the business discussions on home delivery foodstuffs was a teensy bit boring for me, but that was minimal compared to the rest of the story. What softened it was the heat that simmered between these two during said discussions, these two are utterly gorgeous. A spectacular tale, a very enjoyable read.

Usually when I read a book I never made any comment on covers because I usually don't care if the characters on it are or not similar to the ones in my head when I read a book neither I take them into account when decided to read or not a book. However, for this book I am mentioned it because the new cover in the book yas you can see it here in Amazon is perfect and eerily close to how I pictured Remy in my head and I simply loved it so much.Regarding the story, Remy and Harper have a lot of amazing chemistry together and it was a delight witnessing how they found a way to be together. Their story is easy to read with low angst and many wonderful heartwarming moments as the other books in the series. Another sweet plot created by Ms Lain. So wonderful!

I thoroughly enjoy this latest offering from Tara Lain. Sweet, funny and sassy and the happy ever after I always have to have!Quality craft as usual I’m always happy reading about Tara’s boys!

Love You So Sweetly is a quick read, and it definitely is very sweet! Remy and Harper were both awesome, and I loved that they had such supportive families!Lain always manages to have characters that touch my heart, and that was also the case with this story.I enjoyed how the story unfolded, and especially how Remy came to terms with so many things in his life.Harper was very smart, and also adorable, so there was nothing not to love about him.
