Hard to Love

This book is amazing. The main characters, Caden and Alexa are well created and portrayed in the book. The supplementary scenes depict realistic and heart stopping moments. The relationship between Cade and Lily is well thought out and does not crowd the overall storyline. I loved this book and the conclusions/epilogue really rounded out the climax :)

I was pleasantly surprised by how sweet and touching the book was. reading the description leads you to believe it's another bad boy story, but from the very beginning the reader is brought into Cade's world and one really can't help but fall in love with him. I definitely recommend the book - it's funny, sweet and one of the "can't put it down" types.

Everything about this book from story to ending is average. The romantic relationship in the story is plausible, but just written with not a true polish of professionalism. The ending is idealistic stuff, but getting there is like attending an amateur senior play. I hate to be so hard on an author, but from the title on... this story is HARD to take in so many ways.

Love this book. Kept me guessing if there would be a HEA or not. The two characters had their problems. They both have things to overcome and both are from very different worlds. Loved it, it was a good and easy read

This book starts off with a huge bang and continues on. The characters are well developed and easily related to. I feel I that their issues were wrapped up a little to quickly though. Over all a great read

Very well written! Only a few grammatical errors! Wonderful story line with relatable characters. Very touching story of young love and first relationships! Take the time to read it. You won't be dissapointed! BAB

This was an easy read and the storyline was different from most books that I've come across recently. While the premise was a bit odd, I was able to sympathize with the plight of Cade. I was impresses with the subject the author tackled and how well Cade handled his situation. Very steamy romance was good!

Good story cute characters and lots of steamy sex scenes! Yum yum! I just felt it was a little rushed didn't get a real chance to connect with Cade n Alexa. Still good tho . The writing flows nicely not to much detail in mundane things. Moves along decently.

I think that romance stories like this where one of the characters has a job or personality that cannot be wrapped up nicely and tied with a neat little bow, are interesting because it takes a special author to imagine and write the story and keep it a romance. I think in this case that is exactly what Kendall Ryan managed to accomplish. The story revolves around the h and H meeting a few times and even though there are not-so-acceptable things happening in the background, the author does not dwell on them, instead she brings out the sweetness of two people meeting and getting to know one another. I was impressed. Then of course, is the separation but it is not acrimonious, it's sad... even on the side of the H who caused it in the first place. I was happy to see them together in the end. I walked away with a smile and I think you will too.

Can different worlds find love in the other? It's a struggle and not always easy. But if Alexa and Caden can stop running from the issues and be honest with each other and themselves they may just realised begin from different worlds isn't always bad.

" Dammit. I knew a four-hour erection wasn't normal."

Seriously who wouldn't want to read a book that starts out like this? It only got better from there. I've read all of Kendall Ryan's books and they just keep getting better!

I really liked this story and the characters. I just felt that parts of the book dragged on and then it was missing something in other parts and went to fast. It was my first by this author and I will read more. I am happy I read this book.

The beginning was SO absurd, but it turned into a really sweet love story. Of course I always cast the guy and see Channing Tatum in this role - another take on Magic Mike? Anyway, I do recommend for young love story with nice sex mixed in.

When they met for the first time it was definitely not your typical first encounter...but the interests were peaked and continued from there. They story line was great and the attraction was hot...Recommended to other readers.

I actually liked this story. I was disappointed in Cades behavior after one scene towards the end and I found it a little hard for his redemption, but overall it was a SWEET story about a brother's love for his sister and of course meeting someone to fall in love with.

I enjoyed this book. Just starting to work my way through Kendall Ryan's books and I am enjoying every minute of them. The characters are great and the story progresses without the dragging on feeling.

This was such a naughty little romance! I read it all in about two hours because I couldn't put it down. Cade and Lex are just too cute, and they are a perfect example of the well-known forbidden romance. Just like most of them, they do find a way to work through it all. Adorable little Lilly is also a nice touch to this story. Seeing how much Cade loves her does, in fact, make him all the more attractive. I am a huge fan of short novels like these that get straight to the point.

I really enjoyed the character development .The use of compassion,sensitivity , and humour.
However, some of the sex scenes were too long .The emotional connection was achieved no need for overkill.

This book started out a little weird but it turned out to be a great book. The way that the author tells a chapter from one person's point of view and then the next chapter from the other person's point of view was amazing. I found my self wanting to get mad at him but then I would read his point of view of it and I would u of change my mid completely. Knowing why he would do things or why she would do things I think helped me get into the book more. It was a great book and worth the money

I wanted to read this story because the cover caught my attention but its a good story about a boy who has to struggle in life in order to help his sister and in the process gets what he needed in life

This book gave me moments of bright sunshine peeking through the grey clouds….. Cliché? Yes, and so was the book BUT I can forgive the predictable plot because Caden (the hero) is a hot, commanding alpha male with a super sweet heart.

I also really enjoyed the alternating POV.

If you can forgive the grammatical errors, you’re in for a treat!
