I never understood why my momma would keep such a big secret from me. I begged for an answer, but she refused to give in. Now that momma is gone, her secret has been revealed.The secret now has a name.My name is Memphis Reynolds, and I find myself driving hours south in search of him. My biological father. The man momma kept hidden away from me for reasons I never knew.Surrounded by half-truths, … knew.
Surrounded by half-truths, lies, and heartbreak, I find something I wasn’t searching for.
Love.
Three very different, very exceptional, very handsome men, will teach me that it is okay to let go the dreams of a little girl, and grab hold the desires of a grown woman.
They have no idea what they’re getting themselves into.
Bless their hearts.

If you are looking for a story with explicit sexual scenes, this book is not for you. Having said that, I adore this book for that reason! Memphis’s momma dies and leave her the information about her father, which she has kept from her for 20+ years, which Memphis uses to go looking for him. Memphis just wants to know who the man, and his family, is. Like all people, she hopes to have a relationship with him, but knows that probably won’t happen. Memphis doesn’t expect a happily ever after with the man, so I’m pleased that Kelly kept it pretty close to reality with that aspect of the story.
Then Memphis meets the guys. Cain, Tanner and Jasper. Not much backstory is given about the guys, which is a little frustrating when it’s alluded to how they handle life in general, but we are told one of them has family that is Poly (I won’t spoil the surprise as to which it is!). We watch as the guys start the foundation of the relationship with Memphis before they inform her they all want to be with her.
Through a broken nose, covered in mud and a shooting, we watch Memphis come more into herself as well. She started the book as a strong heroine and ends it even stronger with the love and support of her guys, and her grandaddy.
As mentioned above, no explicit sexual scenes, but lots of heat given off in the interactions. While a HEA for Memphis, it is left on a bit of a cliff hanger for other characters in the book, so be warned!
I love this story and I don’t really read a whole lot of contemporary reads but I do love the reverse harem. Can’t wait for her next book!
This story is superb. Good southern charm and a sassy FMC with 3 southern boys. Some spectacular drama and relationship building. The characters are well developed along with the story line, which is fantastic. Memphis is a pink haired school teacher and when she goes to Memphis in search of answers about her father, she comes away with more then she bargained for. Beautifully written and I can’t wait for more from this author.
Very amazing book with relatable characters! Hope there is more to come!
I loved this story. It’s so sweet and will leave you feeling serene. Memphis is a fun character she has her insecurities like all of us but is willing to take a chance on the father she never knew . Arthur and his family are not what she expected to find. Along the way, she finds love in an unexpected way
This book is exceptional. I loved the storyline, its so arresting. This is a RH and its not like most RH you read. Memphis goes through very sad times but finds love with the men who help her through it. This is a must read.
If you love reading reverse harem romance then this book is for you. Kelly A Walker captivates our attention right from the beginning. You are able to get a sense of the character personalities and are drawn immediately into the story. The book is full of twists and turns, fast paced, action packed and the chemistry between Memphis and her men is steamy. I cannot say enough about this book and I highly recommend it!
I absolutely loved this book! It was my first time reading a book from this author and I thought her story telling was fantastic. She made you feel for her characters. The story was funny and had a sweet romantic feel. I enjoyed all the southern says throughout. There were a few twists and moments that shocked me. This was a really fun Reverse Harem story I just couldn’t put down.
This series has love, drama, comedy, and the best personalities a woman could ask for in her men. You get a little glimpse into the lives of true southerners, from muddin’ to knowing where you find the best burger and fried chicken. This is a perfect RH romance for anyone looking for a little bit of southern lovin’.
Memphis is not just for Elvis…When Memphis finally gets the name of her bio Dad, she heads straight for her namesake. There she is lucky enough to be welcomed by her Grandaddy and three hot men who all want to be with her. Steam 5/10 * Sweet 10/10 * 1st POV * RH * HEA
No spoilers of any kind included.
So this is all I’m going to say about Memphis and that is it was awesome and I’m going to leave it at that because if I say anymore I’ll be giving away spoilers.
Kelly A. Walker did an fantastic job at her first solo book, but I had to keep reminding myself that it was just her writing instead of team duo Riley Walker.
Anyway it’s going to be a big HECK YEAH I most definitely do recommend this book because I thought it was fantastic.
I absolutely love it! It was an easy, light read with a great story line.
I love, love, love this book. I was hooked from the start and truly could not put this down. The only reason it’s not a five star for me is because the end was rushed. So many things were left without knowing what happened. Says she has relationship with her half sister who she never even talked to in the book and there was no sexy time. You know at the end they’ve had sex, but we didn’t get any of it as readers. Like, none. I know it seems like I have more negative than positive to say, but 98% of this book was so fantastic. I definitely recommend it.
Memphis was such a great read. Memphis grew up with only her momma, just to learn of her dads existence as an adult. In her journey to meet her father, she forms an unconventional but amazing family. This book had me in laughter, in tears, I got angry but most of all I fell in love with everything about it. The love between the main characters isn’t hot and steamy, instead it is romantic and gentle. I would definitely recommend this book!
I normally lean more towards paranormal or scifi, but every now and then a contemporary book sucks me in and this book was one of them
I absolutely loved Memphis, her story, and the world that was built. I devoured this book and lost sleep to finish it. I highly recommend this one!

What a great read! Memphis is a seriously awesome woman, she’s funny, witty, independent and has one hell of a backbone. When she faces this new challenge in her life, she tackles it head on and carved out happiness for herself in the process. Kelly did a fantastic job with the writing, characters and story arc. This story and it’s characters are easy to relate to and very realistic. I very much enjoyed reading Memphis, Cain, Tanner, Jasper (my favorite one), and Jim’s story. There are more characters but I’m angry at them all and also I don’t want to give anything away I definitely recommend this read to anyone that enjoys a contemporary romance with an HEA. Also I look forward to reading the next book!
This book was great, especially if you love insta-love reverse harems with no paranormal/fantasy elements. The plot is different from what I am use to reading which was a nice change, although I started getting annoyed with the way Memphis refered to her mom. I am not from the south, so hearing “momma” coming from a twenty four year old and not my toddler was a little weird for me. Memphis goes through a lot finding out who her father is and getting introduced to his family. Some parts were a shock to me and unexpected. The green eyes poster rears its ugly head a few times and with a shocking out come. The guys are well described. I like how they are all doing well for them selves and don’t want her pulled into the mess her father’s company is in. What I wasn’t expecting was the guys being the ones to initiate the harem to her after only knowing her for like a week. A little to quick for me. She has no doubts really about the idea of dating all three right away. Overall it was a nice change for me from my usual paranormal RH stories and I enjoyed it.
Oh my. This book was fantastic. Memphis goes through losing her mom and learning about her dad. She finds love and family. Her trials made her triumph so much sweeter.
