All of You is a heartwarming story of a man who simply refuses to give up and a woman who works hard to provide for her daughter. Two people dealing with real life problems to find their happily ever after.
Fabiola Francisco has a way with her words that will make you believe anything is possible. Including a southern fairytale.
This is a perfect country fairy tale! I love the Rebel Desire series and this was a great addition. Fabiola Francisco has me completely invested in these characters and Cassidy Rae is a great addition. I’m not usually drawn to books with children as main characters, but I loved Rae, I kept noticing how she resembled or differed from my own daughter that is the same age. I loved when I saw bits of mine in her. I loved Cassidy and Jason’s story- they found their fairy tale! You will love this book and the Rebel Desire series!
All of You is such a bittersweet read! I am so sad to have to say goodbye to the men of Rebel Desire! It was such a fun journey that we went on with three of the band members to find their happily every after and as a bonus we got to watch Jen and Ryder’s relationship develop throughout the series.
Jason, the bass player, was the last man standing, but not by choice. He thought that he had found the one that didn’t want him for his fame and status, and then that evil witch of a woman showed her true colors. We can’t be too upset by this though, because if it wasn’t for her he never would Cassidy Rae and her sweet daughter!
Cassidy Rae was a jaded single mom (shout out!) My situation with is nearly identical too to Cassidy’s except my home life is very different, but the circumstances surrounding her daughter. Same. So much the same. I’ll admit to you right now, that made it difficult to read at times. It was too real for me, it kind of hurt in a real way that I haven’t really dealt with in other single mom romances. That said, I simply loved watching Jason patiently knock down her walls and the way he treated her and her daughter Rae with so much love just made me swoon.
“Before you know what’s happened, I’ll have you believing in fairytales.”
As much as I loved the the sweet slow burning romance between Cassidy Rae and Jason, the bond that Jason and Rae developed was something else entirely had hearts in my eyes and butterflies dancing in my belly.
And of course All of You wouldn’t be a Fabiola novel if there wasn’t a healthy dose of reality thrown in! If this is your first novel by her, just be prepared real and authentic writing that is very true to life.
All of You is a must read for all lovers of forehead kisses and men willing to go the distance for the woman they love!
Be prepared to fall in love with everything about this book. All of You will have all of your emotions invested in Jason and Cassidy Rae’s love story. It is such a sweet, beautifully crafted, moving story that profoundly grips your heart and soul.
I ADORE the Rebel Desire Crew, definitely a favorite series for me by Francisco! These richly layered characters will be stuck with me forever.
If you need a sweet romance in your life, do yourself a favor and pick up All of You or any of the books in this series. You will not be disappointed.
Cassidy Rae is a hard working single mom of an adorable 6 year old. While she never meant to get pregnant with a one night stand, she can’t deny that her daughter Rae is the best thing that ever happened to her, even if finances are tight. The little girl is a ray of sunshine to everyone she meets. Between work and parenting, Cassidy Rae has no time for anything else in her life . . .least of all a relationship.
Jason, bass player for Rebel Desire, is tired of living life alone. He wants what the rest of his bandmates have found . . .unfortunately the woman he thought he had found it with turned out to be a liar using him for his music connections. Needing to relieve some stress, he takes a jog and somehow ends up farther than expected and in a different area of town than where he lives. It must have been fate, however, because from the moment he walks into that diner and spots Cassidy Rae, he’s done for.
Cassidy Rae is definitely attracted to Jason, but how can she trust someone like him to really be interested in her . . .especially for the long haul. Jason is all in, and meeting Rae has him wanting the whole fairy tale he didn’t even know he was missing. While he’s won Rae over, now he just needs to convince her mother that he can give her the fairy tale she’s been looking for for both her and Rae if she can only trust in him.
All of You was a gorgeous story. Cassidy Rae is such a strong female whose main priority is her child and her family. She’s raising a child on her own and still helping to support her father take care of her mother, who is suffering from advanced alzheimer’s. She’s doing everything she can to make her child happy and give her a step up in life. When Jason appears, it throws her entire world for a wonderful loop.
Jason was born to be a family man. He never falters or wavers in his feelings for Cassidy Rae or Rae, no matter what obstacles are thrown their way. I also loved that while he has the money to do whatever he wants, he never thrust that upon Cassidy Rae, he only loved and supported her need and desire to provide for her own child. His relationship with Rae was amazing! He stepped right in and filled a role she had never had before in her life. He also worked hard at making Cassidy Rae remember what it is to be a woman, and not just a mother again.
There are some really beautiful moments in this book having to do with not only Jason, Cassidy Rae and Rae, but also with her parents as they all deal with her mother’s illness. This book will bring tears and smiles and a few moments of anxiety waiting to see if Jason really is everything he wants to be and whether life will somehow get in the way of what is truly an epic couple.
While this is book three in the series, it is the first I read and I had no problem jumping right in, although now I want to take a step back and start the series from the beginning. Jump right in and enjoy the beauty that is All of You. 4.5 Stars.
This was my favorite book of the series hands down. I love books that have single dads but it was refreshing to read about a single mother. Jason surprised me so much in this story. Out of all the guys in this series I didn’t expect him to fall for a single mother. I don’t think he did as well.
Cassidy Rae is strong and at times a stubborn woman but I don’t blame her one bit. Her daughter Rae is the light of her life. I loved the slow burn between Jason and Cassidy. Especially since Cassidy has a child. I must say the scenes with Jason and Rae warmed my heart as I read.
I honestly expected the story to go one way and the author threw a curveball. For thank I must thank Francisco for going this route. It was refreshing and not predicable and as a reader I truly enjoyed that moment.
I’ve read every book in this series and I’m so sad to see it come an end. Francisco’s writing and storytelling captivated me and I loved going on the emotional journey with all the characters. I felt like I was one of the bunch the whole time I was reading. I’m hoping the author blesses us with a novella in the future as I’m not ready to let them fully go.
Sigh
Another wonderful story in the Rebel Desire series –
This was such an emotionally fun and engaging read!
Loved Rae-Rae – So much sunshine to that young lady
Jason – If ever a character deserved a happily ever after it would be him. He was so easy to connect to and bond with – you could feel his confusion, his love, his need. Another Perfect Book Boyfriend
And Cas … She was so tangible -such a great character! A down to earth heroine without all the wishy-washy back and forth you get in so many romances – it drives me insane when they can’t make up their minds, should I .. No .. Yes.. Loved her strong sense of family and the way she knew herself and was okay with the choices she made.
It is a delight the way Francisco brings me into the stories and captures my heart
This is definitely a must read ..
You will fall in love with this story and characters, it’s heartwarming, deep, emotional and sad in a way, but the way it was written will leave you an awe feeling that you won’t be able to let go… I didn’t want it to end for sure…
The best one yet! Jason and Cassidy Rae will warm your heart in this sweet tale of music stardom and the girl next door.
We all remember Jason Stone from Rebel Desire ( probably already formed an opinion of him) yet we didn’t really know him until now. He has met his match in Cassidy Rae and her precious daughter, finding exactly what he has been missing.
Only good things can come from these two vulnerable soulsI you can’t help loving every happy yet heart breaking moment of finding eachother and settling into each others lives.
It makes me even more excited to see what else is in store for us.
All of You touches on sensitive topics that touch your heart, yet gives you that light at the end of the tunnel. Another perfect Sunday read!
This is the first book of this authors that I’ve read and it was wonderful. I will definitely be going back and reading her other books. All of You was a heartwarming and emotional book. The story drew me in almost instantly and I couldn’t put it down. The characters are very lovable, especially Cassidy Rae. She’s a single mother working hard to provide the best possible life for her daughter and help out her family. Definitely a woman one could admire.
No hardship goes untouched by Fabiola! Single mom devoted to her daughter never thinks of her own future, but life changes when a handsome stranger stumbles into her diner. In his rush to out run the sting of past betrayal, never did Jason think he would come across his future. Watching struggle after struggle being thrown at this couple, I wanted nothing more than to see a victory, and when it comes along my heart melts for another Southern gentleman! This goes to show that no matter how hard can be, what is meant to be will be. Loved it! <3
This is wonderfully written, heart grabbing, sweet story of Rebel Desires band member Jason and single mom Cassidy Rae. Everything flows extremely well within the story, from the other band mates appearances, blasts from the pasts appearing, emotional moments and sassy sweet and smart characters. Loved it and a definite must read.
Southern Fairy Tale
Love All if You! A beautiful heartfelt story that leaves you wanting more of Cassidy Rae and Jason. I got all the feels while reading this book and wished it would never end. I could read Cassidy Rae and Jason’s story forever. A fantastic read.
Favorite quote: ~ Jason to Cassidy Rae “I’m ready to start our southern fairy tale.”
The thing that always touches me about this authors book is how real they are. The characters are normal everyday people with normal everyday problems. Caz is dealing with being a single parent and has a few surprises of her own that test out a relationship and not real secure in life. Jason is dealing with his own trust issues after his break up. Neither is looking for love but they fit into each others lives (with a lot of work) and hearts before they even realize it. It wasn’t a slap of insta-love it was a slow and steady burn and loads of patience. They may have done this dance in reverse but they are doing this dance for life.
I love this author and her easy way. Her stories are always heart felt and emotional. Her characters are the dreams book boyfriends are created from and the women are strong and independent. They love hard and true and they’re family so they love all of you.
All of You is the 3rd book in the Rebel Desire Series but, each book can be read as a standalone. In which All of You is the first book that I have read in this series. I can vouch that you can read it as a standalone. Oh, and this is the first book that I have read by Fabiola Francisco and it certainly won’t be the last!
Rebel Desire is Jason and Cassidy Rae’s story. Cassidy is a single mom struggling to make ends meet. Just trying to make her child’s life easier than her own. Jason makes friends with Cassidy Rae’s child. Oh, and let me tell you the kid is cute! Beyond words cute!
I love the story and I easily fell in love with the characters in this story. 4.5 stars and I am looking forward to the next book by Fabiola Francisco.
Omg!!! This book is absolutely AMAZING… This love story had me hooked after the second they meet. I couldn’t stop reading this book, I had to know what happened next. Cassidy and Jason are perfect for each other. This series is so amazing. each book I cry, I laugh, I love….
