I’m in over my head, and Teale Delaney is the reason why.She’s beautiful, sassy, and I can’t stop thinking about her. If I let myself, I could fall in love. But I can’t. I won’t. It’s to protect her, not me. Someone out there wants vengeance. If I allow them to see my true feelings for Teale, they’ll stop at nothing to take her away. I’m lying to everyone around me to protect the only woman who … who can bring me to my knees.

Absolutely loved this book such a great story could not put it down
I have read all of the books in the Exposed Hearts series and I cannot get enough of the Foster’s! Teale and Kane’s story was by far one of my favorites. There’s just something about a hot romance and a serial killer on the loose! I really hope there will be more in this series!
A very emotional book. Loved every page and chapter of it. Great story.
Kane Foster has always kept love and relationships as far away from himself that he can. He has watched his brothers fall in love but he has no desire to go down that road. He has been asked by the FBI to assist in the hunt for a serial killer in Alaska and the murders keep coming closer to his own home and he is frustrated in his inability to get anything from the scenes.
Teale Delaney is a figure skater who needs a break and decides to rent a cabin in Alaska but when there is no heat she decides she needs to stay somewhere else and refuses to get out of Kane’s truck.
Teale is different than anyone Kane has ever met before and he is shocked at her personality and her ability to say whatever is on her mind. But Kane knows he can’t get close to Teale, especially when the serial killer has made it known that he has made it personal with Kane.
Can Kane keep his heart out of it when Teale breaks down all of his defenses?
This was such an amazing book and I loved it from start to finish!!
Kane was a great character who was a certain way when it came to relationships but you could tell he had so much love for his family. I just loved how shocked he was when it came to Teale and how she was almost a hurricane blowing into his life and uprooting everything.
Teale was such an amazing character that had so much personality and laughs that I loved her from the moment I met her. I loved her ability to shop and the absolutely crazy thing that she would buy, including the pickle and the underwear. She was a character that kept you on your toes as you never knew what she would do next!
I was a little frustrated at what was happening with the serial killer as a reader you knew he was so close and then you saw clues and were mad that Kane and Mariah were missing them!
My heart broke when Teale overheard Kane talking to his family and then all the events that went from there. I was very happy Kane was able to get there in time!
I loved meeting Judson and how Kane and his family were able to get him his dreams although my heart shattered!!!
I really enjoyed how Kane realized the mistakes he made and how he was able to get everything together in a way that could not have been easy for him!
The very end was so awesome and I really hope we get more in this series!!
OMFG!! SPEECHLESS!! JUST SPEECHLESS!! Kristin Mayer had me Intrigued from the Very Beginning of her Writing!! CHANGED BY YOU is Kane Foster’s story and let me tell y’all….Have the tissues handy!! I was a Blubbering mess after finishing this book!
From the Very Beginning, it SUCKS you in and Never let’s you Go! I devoured this book in ONE Sitting since its a page turned that will Leave you laughing out loud and Hot & Bothered at the same time.
Kane Foster is an Enigma of Epic proportions and never a Dull moment when Teale knocks him off his Ass!! The Banter between the two characters are Off the Charts Hot and Entertaining at the same and Not to mention with his Brother’s Drake & Hollis! Plus their chemistry is OFF the Charts Smoldering!! It was such a Rollercoaster ride of TWISTS AND TURNS INTO the UNKNOWN that Have your Jaw Dropping several times! It was a Suspenseful thriller and never a Dull moment then when you think it’s All over….BAM!! Epic proportions of emotional distress and Heartwreching Aches that will Leave you Breathless!
I am Really disappointed that the Exposed Hearts Series is done since I wanted More of the Fosters…lol….ESPECIALLY now I Wanna Go to Alaska which I Never thought of going there!! Thank You Kristin Mayer….I’m definitely a Huge of Yours!!
Kane & teales story this book was emotional and suspense kept me on my toes I loved the story line and also this was the last brother left as always this story blew me away and can’t wait to read some more of this authors books in the future!
I absolutely loved this book!! It is worth way more than 5 stars. I loved the banter between Kane and Teale!! She is relentless with making Mr. Grumpy Pants smile and it makes for very entertaining reading. This couple has amazing electricity that you can feel while reading. It was also an emotional read and I would definitely have your tissues ready!! This book will give you all the feels and you won’t want to put it down once you start it.
Teale came to Alaska to figure out what she wants to do with her life. When the heat goes out in the cabin she rents, she calls the number her landlord gave her. Kane doesn’t do relationships, he doesn’t do warm and fuzzy. For heaven’s sake, he doesn’t even like talking. So he lives in a cabin out of town with just his dog for company. His job as a hunting guide suits him perfectly. So when he gets a phone call from the out of towner that she is going to freeze to death, he is put out to say the least. When he can’t fix the problem, she commanders his truck and forces him to take her to town. When the weather makes it impossible to get her to the hotel, he has to take her to his house. With her personality and her non stop talking, she wiggles her way into his mind and heart. The question is, will he let her stay?
I have been desperate for Kane’s story since I read the first book in the series, Intoxicated by You. I knew that the woman he needed would have to be special, would have to be persistent and strong. He was so closed off, so resistant to anyone coming into his life. Teale is exactly that, she is all sparkle and sass. She doesn’t let his grumpiness stop her from driving him crazy. She kinda takes a wrecking ball to his life and it is so much fun to watch. Kane doesn’t know what to make of her but he can’t help himself from liking her. There is a situation that arises near the end of this story that hit me in the feels and I was crying. It was handled so deftly by Ms Mayer, it was heartfelt and ended on a hopeful note. I loved Kane and Teale’s story, Changed by You deserves all the stars!
Extreme Tear Jerker!!! Another Kristin Meyer great!!! 10Stars!!! Loved the Alaska setting and the characters are amazing!!! This might definitely be my favorite of the 3!!! I cried soooo hard and laughed throughout!!! Suspense,murder, faith,hope, love,etc. This book literally goes through all the emotions!!!! Leaves you wanting more from this awesome family!!!!
I haven’t yet met a Kristin Mayer I didn’t love and this is no different. A fun, emotional, witty read. This story of Kane and Teale wrapped up the conclusion of this series nicely. A strong female lead Teale will kept Kane on his toes and will keep the reader amused. Finally glad to get Kane story. Loved it.
Teala needed a break from her life to think about the future and Kane is a rugged man who likes to be alone and no one to bother him. He goes over to his friends cabin to help Teala our and she takes over and the thing is he lets her. They become roommates and live together and run into her ex and they become fake boyfriend and girlfriend. It was all not real but Teala let her heart get in the way and her feelings changed but his didn’t or did they….. This is a great book. Loved every minute of this read. Loved seeing a tiny woman take what she wants from a strong man and he has no idea that things can change.
This book has many good plots rolled into one. Once one things resolved the story keeps going and I loved it. Kane was the typical hot, broody male and Teale was the spunky lady to bring him to his knees. Loved seeing the family more in this book too.
I FLOVED every page of this book… Oh my Kane- this man is tough and gruff, but he has a deep soul. Now he is stuck with on very energetic ice skater Teale. Teale is full of life and is not afraid to say what is on her mind. Now she is in the rugged back country of Alaska trying to start over and she is just stumbled on something that makes her heart warm.
Kane and Teale have the perfect balance of fun and love. I could just read them over and over. See more of my review on below link on A Day With Ethel.

This was a great book. I love the way the author started the book making us believe it was one thing and after just a few chapters filling us in and making things so much more interesting. The characters and the story line keeps you into the book until the end. The twists and turns are great as well as the passion.
I’ve never laughed so much like I laughed while reading Teale and Kane’s story. Teale was a pice of work, a breath of fresh air. Kane was the total opposite. While Teale talked a mile a minute Kane wasn’t much of a talker. He was completely against dating until he met Teale and she broke down those walls.
These two were perfect for each other. The things that came out of Teale’s mouth had Kane laughing that he just couldn’t help himself with her. And his family adored her. There was an incident that will make you gasp and then one that was sad and heartbreaking. Both incidents you see a side of Kane that will do things to your heart.
The ending was hilarious. The Foster brothers and the adopted one, lol, are a funny bunch.
Changed by You by Kristin Mayer is book 3 in the Exposed Hearts series. This is Kane Foster and Teale’s story. We got a glimpse of Kane in books 1 & 2 but he was somewhat of this enigma….this closed off man who keeps to himself. But all that changes in book 3 when the sweet and sassy Teale comes to town. OMG, how Teale met Kane had me in stitches. Kane didn’t know what to make of her and she made it clear ” Mr grumpy pants” better get happy and fast, and do it in a warm place asap. Teale sees that Kane needs her, needs someone who can help him and she knows that is her even if he doesn’t want her in his life or believe she is it. Their love journey is one full of many unforeseen twists/turns and sad to say, heartbreaking moments yet they make their way through it all together! Ms. Mayer wrote her final book in the Exposed Hearts series with beautiful touching words and emotional feels along with witty humor that will keep the reader hooked from start to finish. Kane and Teale made this story just sweet and super steamy.
My Rating: 4.5 stars *****
This is my first book by this author and it certainly won’t be my last. OMG!!!! This book was off the charts absolutely amazing. I went on an emotional roller coaster but at the end I was happy and ready for more. I have to read books 1 and 2 because I didn’t realize this was book 3 of a series. Teale is like a hurricane she just storms into Kane’s life and turns everything upside down, lol, but in a great way. I loved this two totally opposite characters and I loved their family even more. I laughed a lot, cried a little and overall I just really enjoyed this book. Best book I have read for 2019 thus far. Absolutely recommended.
I am so in love with Kristin Mayer and this whole series! I swear I have been waiting for Kane’s story since this first book in this series came out!
This book has it all! Steam, suspense, and so much heart!
FIVE HUGE STARS!!
A lovely romance with beautifully developed characters and a compelling storyline. I enjoy the author’s writing style, and like that although a stand-alone, the characters are interconnected within the “Exposed Hearts” collection.
Hello Ladies. Are you a fan of EXTREMELY emotional romance? Well then, Changed by You is definitely the book for you. This book really needs to come with a warning label, “Tissues not included with purchase price”. Believe me Ladies, when you read this book, you WILL need them. There are also many “LOL” moments, as well as lot of “aww” moments. Ladies, I just freaking loved this book.
I FREAKING LOVED Teale Delaney!!! She totally saw the real Kane, she looked right through his gruff, “Mr. Meanie Pants” exterior, to the soft marshmallow inside. She saw things that even his family did not.
Kane Foster was NEVER going to become the “Princess” that his brothers had. Love was not for him… again. Nope, sorry ladies, I am not going to give anything away. Kane is working with the FBI to find the a serial killer, dubbed the “Lumberjack”. The killer is aware of Kane helping the FBI, it was his plan all along because…. Sorry Ladies, this really is a fabulous book, and I do not want to give anything away.
Kudos to you Ms. Mayer, I do not know how you could write some of the parts of this phenomenal book and not break down. I literally had to put my reader down because I was crying so hard and could not see to read the words. My heart broke in a zillion pieces at one part.
Changed by You is the 3rd book in Ms. Mayer’s Exposed Hearts Series. Yes, it is a standalone book, and you do not ‘have’ to read the two prior books first, but I highly recommend it. The 1st book, Intoxicated By You is Drake Foster’s story, and the 2nd book, Wrecked For you is Hayden Foster’s story, Kane’s brothers. In both books you will learn a lot about Kane, and some of what made him tick.
