Title: Ryan's Love (Sawyer Brothers #1)
Author: C.A. Harms
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Publication Date: August 11th 2015 by Limitless Publishing LLC
Plot: One of the hardest things I have ever had to do was bury my wife.
The second hardest thing would be watching my twelve-year-old daughter fall to her knees as they lowered her mother into the ground to rest.
A heart-wrenching vision that will forever be etched in my mind.
Claire was my best friend—she had been since we were barely old enough to talk. I always knew, one day, I would marry her. I think I may have even told her that a few times while we were growing up.
Never did I think I would lose her so suddenly.
I knew at that moment…
Our life would never be the same again…

☆✮ My Review ✮☆
☆ I received an ARC via Enticing Journey Book PR in exchange for an honest review. Thank you! ☆
I’m a HUGE fangirl of author C.A. Harm’s writing, so when I found out that she was coming out with a new book that involved a single father and his 12-year daughter, I just knew that it was a book worth hopping into!!
After tragically losing his wife, Ryan Sawyer feels as if he can no longer love again, nor replace, the void of his wife’s presence in their young daughter’s life.
That is, until Amber Dirksen moves into town to take over her family business, that lines begin to blur and all signs of hope seem to be not so lost after all.
I really enjoyed the family dynamic of this, as it weighs a huge weight on all major protagonists, as well as, brings home components of life that are both beautiful anddevastating.
Ryan’s Love will tug at your heartstrings with its riveting and emotional tale of love, loss, family, grief, moving on, and belief that there is a light at the end of the tunnel no matter how futile you may think your predicament may be.
Definitely can't wait to get my hands on the next book, Jackson's story!!

☆✮ Excerpt ✮☆
“Climb up,” I said from behind her as she stood
staring up at the horse only a few feet from her with a look of panic on her
face. I was more than positive this was the closest this city girl had ever
been to one.
She peered back over her shoulder, and I almost
laughed at how overwhelmed she looked.
“I’m from the city,” she said with wide eyes,
emphasizing her loss at what to do. “Ryan, you do understand that we have
subways and taxis, right? We do not have horses that are the size of SUVs. I’m
going to need a little help if you expect me—” She pointed toward her chest, then
spun around to point at the horse. “—to get up on that thing.”
Now I did chuckle. It was impossible not to. She
was damn near panicking at the thought of how she would mount and then ride the
horse.
I stepped up behind her, my chest fitting flush against
her back. Gripping her hips, I leaned my head closer and grazed my lips over
her ear. Her body relaxed against mine, and she tilted her head to the side,
opening up her neck to me.
As I placed a kiss at the base of her neck, she
shuddered in my arms. “You have to put your foot in the stirrups,” I whispered
before kissing just below her ear. “I’ll lift as you pull yourself up.”
She nodded with her eyes closed as her chest moved
up and down in small pants.
“Go on,” I urged.
I lifted her as she gripped the saddle, and she
yelped when I firmly placed her atop Storm, my father’s Oldenburg stallion.
Jackson held him steady as I pulled myself up and took my spot behind Amber.
Our bodies were so close together I could feel her ragged breaths as she
shifted against me with each one.
