He has never met a woman he wanted to keep, until she walks into his life.

Tucker Brady doesn’t expect to find the woman of his dreams while eating lunch at the local Dairy Dip. It takes only a quick look at Hadley Walsh, and he is like a man possessed. He has one sliding between her legs and staying there.

Getting His woman is the only thing that matters.

Now that Tucker has her by his side, his life is nearly perfect. His days are filled with laughter, and his nights are full of hot sex. There’s only one little problem; his mother and Hadley hate each other. Playing referee between the two women is driving him fucking nuts!

How can Tucker fix this without having to choose between the woman in his bed and the woman who gave him life?

This was a short fast read. For those of you who don't like insta-love, well, this one pretty much falls into that category and man do the two leads move fast!! I mean, woah!! Seriously.

I also didn't get Tucker's mom. She was the ultimate monster in law any girl would dread to have. I didn't get her deal and her obsession over Tucker and her other son and why she couldn't fahom that another woman could enter in their lives. Once more, seriously, issues anyone?

And lastly, while I somehow liked this story, I will be the first to point out that if you're looking for anything layered or with substance then maybe this is not the read for you. It was enjoyable, yes, but it was a little predicable and transparent. Sorry. I hope I don't come off as harsh.

insta love + evil mother in law

[Emily · Rating 4 out of 5]

Tucker Brady was a love em and leave em man when it comes to women, he doesn't form attachments nor does he plan to anytime soon. It hits him at once when he meets Hadley Walsh, he knows she is it for him and goes about claiming her as his. The problem that arises though is his mother's hostility to Hadley and will it tear them apart?

This was a fun quickie. I thought the mom was crazy and didn't really understand what her issue was. Liked Hadley and Tucker together and always a sucker for an insta-love story.

I was lucky to receive an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This is the first book in a new series from Emily Minton and Shelley Springfield
This is a insta-Love fast-pace amazing love story. I love that sort of books I am drawn to them like bees to honey!

So, this first book is about Tucker and Hadley; Tucker Brady didn’t expect to find the woman of his dreams while he was eating lunch at the local Dairy Dip. Hadley Walsh never expected to meet the men of her dream while on vacation with her friend.
The story goes fast but is very well developed and lot of action going on!! I won’t say too much because I want you guys to enjoy this story as much as I did!
The only thing I will say is that if I ever get a mother in law like Hadley’s I’m either going to punch her or leave. That woman is the worst Person that ever existed on earth

I do hope you like this book Like I did

So loved this book!! Tucker is a farmer who isn't looking to settle down until Hadley walks in to the "Dairy Dip". When he lays eyes on her he knows she's his. He was always told "A Brady man knows when he meets the woman he wants to spend his life with the minute he lays eyes on her"(something like that) and when he sees Hadley he can't believe they were right. But after he introduces her to his mom, the crazy lady stirs all kinds of trouble. I really feel for Hadley and most women can relate to having a "monster-in-law" and know how hard it is to try and balance keeping your spouse happy and pleasing her even though you'd rather push her off a cliff. I loved this story and the characters!! I can't wait for the next book.

Let's call it 3.75 stars!

Started off a bit too insta everything for me but progressed in a good story with plenty of hot bits!

I'm looking forward to book 2.

Instant love, you've got it here and it's a fantastic story.
Tucker's the ultimate rogue, I loved him. He meets Hadley by chance at a coffee shop and immediately decides she's to be the lucky girl who is going warm his bed that night...and also, every night after.
Hadley's not so sure about this brash guy, she's innocent and things are moving a little too fast, but she is attracted to him and soon drawn into his whirl wind of passion.

Things go great for Tucker and Hadley, so good that they get married fairly quickly. And Tucker takes proudly Hadley home...where she meets his mom, who makes it clear she is not happy. Hadley then has to take daily verbal abuse from the woman, Tucker is stuck in the middle, trying to help, but getting no where.

Loved Hadley she was a sweetheart. Is her love strong enough to endure the constant bitching? But Tucker, phew! Does he ever grow some b*lls and tell his witch of a mother where to go, poor Hadley needs some support here! You'll have to read to find out!
I highly recommend this book, it's not to be missed!

5 Stars!

Shelley Springfield and Emily Minton are new to me but that is going to change soon. Packed with heart, heat and passion, these two ladies took me on am unforgettable journey that had insta-love and steam times infinity.

Getting His was a captivating romance that i couldn't put down. These two were written so well, that their story just flowed right off of the pages....

Who knew a random trip to the would forever change his life. He's found the one. She's young, inexperienced, and right for him in every way. But there's one tiny... actually huge problem.... his mother.

It's gonna get a little... complicated.

Hadley and Tucker were so perfect... intense passion mingled with great banter and undeniable chemistry... they completely stuck with these two from the start. I loved every minute of their story and look forward to what they give us next with these alphas guys!

If you like your books fast, fun, dirty, and completely addicting... then this book and these two ladies are totally for you.

I highly recommend this book.

Tucker has always been told that when he finds "the one", he would know. When he sees Hadley for the first time, Boom, he realizes it is true because she is his "one". He moves them ahead very fast and they get married. Only they do not live so happily ever after like we expect. His mother is a monster-in-law. Their love is strong, the sex is hot, but will their marriage survive his mother? Luckily, the two are able to get over that huge monster of a hurdle and truly get their happy ending.I really liked these two together and their interactions. This was an enjoyable, love at first sight read. I really wanted to reach in and smack the characters with their own book a few times while I was reading it. Tucker, so he did what he needed to do the entire book, and eventually did do. Hadley, so she said something and stuck up for herself. The mother-in-law, because she was nasty and needed it. This book definitely had me feeling some emotions. An good read. I look forward to Major and Tanya's story next.

Insta-creepy.

[Sami love's Books · Rating 1 out of 5]

Jeez. Doormat much? This book doesn't have much character building... just a virgin that instantly turns into a sexual goddess, and an older country boy who tells her how and what to do including getting married within 2 weeks of meeting.
Everytime Hadley says anything, Tucker just overrides her opinion with his own and she just lets him.
I love books with alpha males, but this one completely misses the mark. A woman who ends up with an alpha male should be strong enough to stand up to him and go toe to toe if need be. Having an alpha male with a partner who rolls over and let's everyone bulldoze over her is not a sexy alpha male story, it's an abusive relationship.

[Johnnie-Marie Howard · Rating 5 out of 5]

OMg what are these authors trying to do to me, I was hooked I even had to stay up late finishing it and got up and started right where I left off I did have to get a few hours of sleep or I'd be dead to the world for work. But man was I happy once I picked up where I left off. I loved every single minute of this story, it just seemed to keep getting better and better on each page. Hell each page had me hooked over and over again and again. I couldn't wait for more. This is one story you don't want to miss out on. I mean hello Alpha males, cowboys and a bunch of hottness. The sex scenes are out of this world amazing. Hadley (I just love this name) comes from a harsh family and marries the greatest guy ever Tucker. Family drama and even all that can't get in the way of their love. I have never read about love being so strong but holy cow man it blows you away. I can't even the amount of love that Hadley and Tucker have only makes you want to have that in real life. I do have to say this story is a MUST READ, dead serious read it. This story took me less then one say to read from cover to cover. The characters grow and the whole story grows. It got a somewhat steady pace to it but the story is that great you end up reading it faster then you really want to. Not complaining about that at all. Hell nothing about this story warrants any complaints at all, just that you want more by the time its done. By the time you blink it's over and your kinda left with your mouth open catching flies and what not and going did that just really happen? Yes it did trust me it happened lol. I so recommend reading this story!!!!

*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Do you like country boys that call you Darlin'? If so, Tucker Brady is sure to be your new book boyfriend! Speaking as a girl from the south, Tucker is the guy every southern girl dreams of. While he is well known for playing the field in his small hometown of Kentucky, that all changes the moment he first sets eyes on the beautiful Hadley Walsh. His grandpa always told him that the Brady men know the instant they met "the one" for them, and Tucker knows deep in his soul that Hadley is the woman for him. While he and Hadley fall fast and hard for one another, things aren't all roses and sunshine. They have one huge obstacle to overcome, and that would be Tucker's mom. That woman is pure evil! I swear she put the "B" in bitch! She is sure that when push comes to shove, Tucker will choose her over Hadley, but we all knows what happens when one assumes.

I loved this book! It is such a fun and quick read! I loved Tucker and Hadley, and don't even get me started on Tucker's brothers, Major and Gunnar. I mean, hello, those names alone are enough to get a southern girl's home fires burning if ya know what I mean! I am beyond excited to read Getting Hers which is Major's story! It comes out in May, so I suggest one clicking this book asap, so you will be ready! Another great book, Emily and Shelley!!

✯✯4 Darling Stars!!!✯✯

If you love the instant love romance storyline. With a hot, sexy, alpha country guy. A woman who loves her man so much she'll take on his evil mother. Oh, he also has 2 sexy brothers. This is your book.

Tucker Brady and his brothers have their business. Tucker has a great life. He has no issue with women. But, he hasn't found the one. His grandpa told him and his brothers "A Brady man always knows when he's met the right woman." He didn't believe it until Hadley Walsh walked into his life. Then, his entire life changed.

Hadley Walsh is a 19yr old virgin. Her parents make her life miserable. When Hadley met Tucker her life changed. She felt things she's never felt before. But, she's old school. Her grandmothers words ringing in her ears. She won't put out to him. But, when Tucker proposes to her Hadley finds herself saying yes. It doesn't matter they hardly know each other. It feels right. If only it was. Tucker's mother hates her. Isn't afraid to let her know. But, Hadley won't come in between Tucker and his mom. But, just how long can she deal with the verbal abuse from his mom? Is what her and Tucker have real enough to survive his mother.

This was a nice quick read. As much as I loved Tucker is as much as I wanted to punch him in the throat. I always kept waiting for him to put his mom in her place or let Hadley makeup her own decision. Even though he gave her everything and he's sexy. He also went from sleeping with any women that looked at him. To not even seeing anybody in the loo but her. This was a good read. I'm super looking forward to reading Tucker's brother Major's story next.

HADLEY ISNT TO SURE THEY SHOULD MOVE SO FAST, SHES AS PURE AS EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL, BUT FEELS THE SAME ATTRACTION AND HEAT AS TUCKER DOES, AND GOES WITH IT!!!

THINGS MOVE ALONG QUITE FAST, AND THE TWO END UP MARRIED PRETTY QUICK, LOVED THAT!!!!

I HOPE TO READ MORE ABOUT THE OTHER CHARACTERS IN THE BOOK, EMILY & SHELLEY SET IT UP FOR A GREAT SERIES!!!!

[Lindsaye Dombrowski · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love how fast these two amazing people became an extraordinary couple, just because Tucker "knew". When you find "THE ONE", you just know and don't let anything come in the way!
Tucker has had his share of the town women but never gave any of them a second thought.  That is until Hadley walked into the Dairy Dip. He knew from that moment, not only did he want her but he needed her. From the first night, he knew the Brady style claiming (a rumor from his great great grandfather) was a true thing.
Marriage after only a week, it is a whirlwind romance at its finest, with loving hard and f*ing harder. But there's one thing that stands in the way of a perfect life with Tucker and her name is Doris, Tuckers mother. She has no limit to the torture she puts Hadley through to push Hadley away from her son.
Not wanting to take a mother from her son, Hadley deals with the abuse until Tucker hears it with his own ears. Chaos ensues and love conquers all...even family!

[Charlotte Isaac · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved this book, I enjoy all books these authors write and this was something totally different to what they both us to writing. And I can say I wasn't disappointed.

Tucker is known for going through his women, but his grandfather always told him he will find the one women who he can't live without and he will know straight away. He owns a farm with his brothers, and lives with his mother, who tries and runs his life. He is very strong independent person, who gets what he wants.

Hadley is friends with Tuckers friend and neighbor. She comes to town during break with her as her parents have gone on a second honeymoon. She is a shy girl, and always feels lonely and hurt after the way her parents treat her. She doesn't believe in love at first sight, but she learns there is such thing as this.

Hadley and Tucker is a brilliant love story, that can concur all obstacles including family. I really loved this story and I cannot wait for more of this series.

[Neringa Neringiukas · Rating 3 out of 5]

I do love stories including problems with bitch of a mother. But it's no fun for me, when h let's bitch to walk all over her without asking respect for herself and when H knows that what hellish life is brought by his mother to his woman but ignores it because he doesn't want the headache to deal with it. And you can tell me while you are blue, but I wouldn't believe that Tucker was clueless. There was too many signs and he ignored each one of them. I don't care the reasons why. Of course, Hadley is at fault too. She was too... I wasn't sure what's her deal. I mean there was a spark, that indicated that she has a damn backbone, but she played doormat all the time. She never stood her ground, always giving in to others wishes. And Hadley should have spoken up, instead of continuesly saying, that the bitch needs to adjust. I mean how long you need to take that bullshit? Until h dies?
Hadley not my type of h. She was disappointing. And when Tucker finally stood up for his woman, it was too late for me.
That said I will give a chance to other brothers.

This book is fun, quirky, sexy, and sweet. Along with a mother in law I'd like to smack! But anyways, I laughed and wanted to see right away what was going to happen. If only life was as easy as walking into a diner and finding your true love!

So love st first sight? Maybe I do believe in it a little bit. Hadley and Tucker sure do. They hit it right off. Hadley used to be a shy girl who couldn't speak her mind. Well boy does she grow up and fast. She becomes fierce and strong!! And Tucker? He's a softie and a sweetie who gets even sweeter when he meets Hadley.

Along with their friends and family you get to go on this adventure with these two characters. One that at times I was ready to chuck my kindle because of said mom in law up front. But it makes Hadley stronger!! I loved these two and I can't wait until Tanya and Major's story!

Getting His by Emily Minton and Shelley Springfield.

I knew going into this book, that it was totally different than any other books these fine ladies have written.
OMG!!! This was a fast read for me. Once I began, I did not want to put it down.
From the moment Tucker saw Hadley, he knew she was the one for him!! So what else is there to do but do everything possibly imaginable to make her his. The love and protection he has for Hadley fierce and such a total turn on. He is the a sexy alpha cowboy. The way that Tucker and Hadley are together is definitely true love! I can not wait to see what happens in Getting Hers.
I was a little skittish about reading this book since I am used to their MC books but this book was hot and sexy and I definitely need more!!

[Juli · Rating 4 out of 5]

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book (given by the authors)...

This is a quick and steamy read filled with insta-love and an alpha male who gets what he wants. The moment Tucker laid his eyes on Hadley he knew she was the one. Unfortunately for the couple, Tucker's mom wasn't as happy with the new addition to family and made sure Hadley knew it.

Possible Spoilers:

I could NOT stand Tucker's mom she was the definition of the word b***h and I wished someone would have slapped her ... with a brick. Tucker took a little too long with wrangling his mother in, especially, when everyone could see how crappy his mom was treating Hadley.

I am looking forward to Major and Tanya's story ;)

[Bernice Hudnall · Rating 4 out of 5]

Getting His is a story about love at first sight and what happens next. Tucker Brady is used to getting what he wants and once he lays his eyes on Hadley, he will stop at nothing to get her in his bed and keep her there. Hadley may be young but she knows that there is something about Tucker and is willing to follow him anywhere.

While there may be some people who are against their relationship, no one compares to Tucker’s mother. She is a down and dirty evil bitch. Hadley is a strong person for putting up with all that was being thrown at her and when you add in her not so great parents, you realize just how special she is.

This story is a quick read but it’s also full of love, hot sex, and drama. Looking forward to Major’s story.

Great Read!

This book released today - I read the blurb - scooped it up - began reading it this morning and now I'm finished. (same day)

I loved it! - literally just finished with a huge smile in my face!

Yes, it was insta-love but so isn't the majority of "romance" books out now. This one had a nice twist to it and one I have yet to read anything similar too. I got so caught up in this book that I was lucky that I didn't have much to do today in "real life".

I can not wait for book #2 and I'm also greedy and hope for a book #3 with maybe some other people that were mentioned in the "epilogue" *wink wink

Oh and can not forget the "Hotness Factor" = OFF THE CHARTS! YOWSA!

If you're looking for a fast, easy schmexy read Getting His is for you! This quick read had laughs, hot chemistry between Hadley and Tucker and a whirlwind...like lightening speed romance! But all isn't fair in love...not with a conniving, horrible, lying mother-in-law. Tucker's mother is so evil, she can make Satan seem nice!!!! Poor Hadley...thank goodness she had Tucker! Can the love birds put her behind them and focus on their future? Will Tucker's mother accept Hadley as part of their family now?

Read to see if Tucker will be "Getting His" HEA.

"We Brady boys know our women the minute we lay eyes on her"

All it took was one look and Tucker was hooked. I enjoyed his pursuit in Hadley. One you know, you know. What's the point in pussyfooting around? I love his alpha ways. Hadley's a sweet girl and I feel for that girl. We all know from blurb they Tuckers mom is causing problems. I felt for Hadley having to deal with her. She's a witch.
This is a sexy read that will give you all the feels.

Can't wait for more!

Tucker and Hadley. Tucker isn't ready to settle down till he sees Hadley. He knew from just seeing her she was it for him. Was he it for her though? Will she stay through his mom's hatred for her? Tucker mom puts her through it and is very hateful to her but Hadley doesn't tell Tucker! Why? I guess you'll have to one click to find out.

This book was short and sweet. It was insta-love for Tucker and Hadley. A super quick romance with a HEA but not without any problems with the wicked monster-in-law. This story was a sweet, easy read. The characters are fun and sassy making the book a great read. Definitely looking forward to the next book.

I love Tucker he had this instant attraction to Hadley. The things that he says to her makes you melt. He's so sexy. His mother well she is in a class of her own. She is mean and hateful towards any female that he gets close to. It's sad the things she says and does. But love the revenge they get back on her.

Tucker and Hadley
This book was given to me for my honest opinion. This is a cowboy country style type of book which is one of my favorite type of books. I enjoyed this book tremendously. It kept me entertained. A wonderful light love story with a bit of a Cinderella theme
