Georgia on My Mind is the second installment in the Southern Promises Trilogy from KG Fletcher. Much like the first in the series, this one is a sweet and emotional love story woven around some amazing music.
We get the hot, hot, hot story of Gia and Hartford, Hart, in this novel. These two have a sizzling hot chemistry that will ignite you as you read their story. Fletcher weaves the romance around intrigue and drama that makes the story so relatable and easy to devour.
We first met Hart as just Katie’s brother from the first novel, Georgia Clay. Hart has had to move home after a situations that tore his life to bits. He is tasked with house sitting for his sister and deciding what he will do next with his life. Enters Gia. She is a big personality that was so much fun to read. Hart decides that helping Gia will be his next step in life, no matter how much Gia may want to turn down his help. When the flames ignite will the two have a chance at a long-lasting future together or will there be other directions in the cards for them? Can they reach a happily ever after together?
I was not as into this story as much as the last one, but I did love it. I am anxious to see what will come next in the final book of the trilogy. I hope that it isn’t too long of a wait!
Love the journey K.G. Fletcher took me on with Hart & Gia’s story! Felt for Gia, but she found her prince charming! These two fit perfectly together! Awesome ending, look forward to reading more by this author!
This story is the second installment of the Southern Promises series by K.G. Fletcher. Like the first one, this novel can be read perfectly as a standalone, but makes better sense when read with the series. Hart is unemployed, and living with his sister Katie, who we meet in book 1. Gia is a business owner/dancer/impersonator. They come from different sides of the track and know 2 completely different ways of life. When Hart and Gia hit it off, I was definitely interested in seeing what kinds of ups and downs they experience. This story touched on some real world issues while demonstrating what it means to want to be a better person because of the person you love. I found myself super annoyed by Gia more than once, and kinda in love with Hart just as much. Fantastic read! 5 out of 5 stars!
Georgia On My Mind is the 2nd book in the Southern Promises series by K.G. Fletcher. Although part of a series, these books can be read as a standalone. I would however urge any reader to read the whole series as the first 2 books are fantastic. Having previously read other works by this author, she is definitely become a major favourite of mine.
Our hero in this book is Hartford Parker, brother of Katie who was the heroine of book 1, Georgia Clay. Hartford, or Hart as he’s better known, is living at his sister’s house in Atlanta, having been fired in disgrace from his high powered job. At a friend’s birthday he comes to the rescue of Gia Bates who is the Marilyn Monroe party entertainer. There’s an instant chemistry between the 2. Gia is struggling to keep her dance studio business afloat and is working as an impersonator to earn extra cash.
I really loved both of these characters. Gia is so head strong and will do everything to keep her business from going under. I loved her grit and determination. Hart is an adorable guy who just wants to everything he can to help her.
I would highly recommend this book (and the rest of the series) as they are amazing stories with equally amazing characters who will draw you in from the very first page.
Georgia on my Mind by K.G. Fletcher a four-star read that will play in your dreams on repeat. This is the second book in the Southern Promises series, but each book can be read as stand-alone, but as usual you get the best overall experience from reading the whole series. Hartford what can I say about you, he is most certainly a character that will cause you drama. Heads butt and hearts collide in this story filled with passion. This is becoming a series you wont want to miss.
Georgia On My Mind Southern Promises –Book Two Written by KG Fletcher
5 Stars
“Life was happening so fast, and she was losing her grip on her new reality.”
This series continues to get better, inspires me to see the silver lining in a situation, gives hope and empathy to those that may be dealt a horrible hand but don’t let it define them. When someone is down on their luck I think they have to work twice as hard to be given the same opportunities as others. It takes strength, courage, self confidence and a whole different level of independence to hold your head up high and give each day a hundred perfect.
“Shame covered her like a thick fog, making her head throb. She swore she would never be anything like her late mother. Here she was on the precipice of a new and exciting life with the man of her dreams, and she was about to play a game of Russian roulette.”
As soon as I finished Georgia on my mind I started thinking about Book Three in the Southern Promises Trilogy ~ Georgia Pine. I was trying to guess who the main focus would be on…after reading the summary I can honestly say I wouldn’t have guessed it in a million years. Then I let it sink in and am thinking it will be awesome!!!
“I love dreaming with you while I’m wide awake.”
K.G. Fletcher is an author that completely took me by surprise. I’ve read another book by this author, and it so happens to be the first book in this series. So, I continued with Georgia on my Mind.
I was more than excited to dive into this book and get to know Hartford Parker. I kind of felt embarrassed for him and his earlier transgression, but it sure was fun to see where the author took this book. I had fun seeing him as an individual, and where his path lead. This was a definite 4 Star Book for me!

Georgia on My Mind is the second book in the Southern Promises series by K.G. Fletcher and I think I liked it a bit more than the first. There was just something about Gia and Hart that drew me in from the very start.
Hart was an immature playboy who to me acted like the world owed him. Thankfully he gets taught a very important lesson and finally decides to grow up and be the man his parents raised him to be.
Gia’s back story just made me sad. She has been through so much and she was busting her tail to hold on to the happy part of her childhood.
This was a great story and now I’m sitting here waiting for the next book in the series to release. Cannot wait to see what happens!
5 Star
Georgia on My Mind ( Southern Promises Book 2) By KG Fletcher is the second book in the Southern Promises series. I definitely recommend reading the first book in this series as well. I’ve loved this series so far but I think this story is my favorite. It pulled at my heart more so than Clay and Katie’s story.i had the hardest time putting this down once I started reading. I had to know what happens next. This is Gia and Hart’s story.Gia is one who doesn’t like to depend on others for help and that includes not only her personal life but her business as well. Hart finds himself in a situation that has him swearing off women. Until he meets Gia that is.The attraction these two have is incredibly hot! Can these two have a relationship with a HEA? I recommend reading this book especially if you are dying to know what happens with these two. I can’t wait for the third book in this series. As always I can’t wait to read more from this author.
When I saw the name “Georgia On My Mind”, I could not help but think about Ray Charles song. This book is nothing like “George On My Mind”. So with having this song stuck in my head, I found that K. G. Fletcher is an amazing story teller. She has well developed characters. She paints a picture in your mind for the setting. This is the second book in the series that can be a stand-alone book, you will get some of the scenery and character information that will enhance the book more. Gia is an independent woman who does not need a man in her life to make it complete. Hartford is the main make character who has not had it easy with women UNTIL he meets Gia. Will these two get together to see if their chemistry will merge these two together?
AH! I will admit it, This book won my heart. I loved absolutely everything about this book. Hart and Gia are EVERYTHING!
K.G. Fletcher has a way of making the most real character’s I’ve read. Their emotions/feelings are completely relatable and I love how her stories have this kind of slow burn quality to them. Both Hart and Gia have their hang ups, which is totally understandable. Hart has this beauty about him as he supports Gia as she slowly heals. He is completely and utterly swoon worthy.
I have said it before and I’ll say it again, I love K.G. Fletcher’s writing. The stories are easily a one sitting read and you’ll fall in love with all the characters!
This second book in the Southern Promises series is like a beautiful dance that will have you caught up in the music, the romance and the rhythm. The chemistry and attraction between Gia and Hart is just like the song lyrics Georgia On My Mind. It is about the roads leading them back to each other, it is about those eyes that smile so tenderly and about a feeling that is like an old sweet song that keeps playing in your head. Pasts and decisions that haunt both of them are the things that will push them to be better. Their story is mesmerizing, enchanting and a journey that will have its’ share of ups and downs. Your heart will break for Gia and the secrets that she holds. Hart is so perfectly named as this man is the beat to her happiness and peace. Two broken pieces that will find their whole within each others arms. A story full of lies, secrets, passion, heart and peace.
Georgia On My Mind (Southern Promises book 2)
By KG Fletcher
Georgia on My Mind is the second book in the series, while I really did enjoy this book I have to say so far book one is my favourite. I do think Georgia on my Mind did follow from Georgia Clay quite nicely. Can you read this as a standalone? For sure you can, but why would you not want to start at the beginning? This book centres around Hart and Gia, and we also have an awesome music line up. So if you are in the mood for a hot romance book then you really need to pick this one up.
Georgia On My Mind is Book 2 in the Southern Promises Series from author KG Fletcher. This is my second read from this author and now will not be my last. I can’t wait to see what this author brings to the rest of the series and her other books.
This author writing style was captivating, easy flowing and easy to read. She has created some wonderful characters that are real, relatable and very lovable.
Even though these books are part of a series, they can be read as standalone as in each book we follow new main characters on their journey through this book, but just to get a feel at how incredible these series is I’d recommend that you read in order.
This book takes you on a rollercoaster of emotion and has me feeling all the feels. I loved reading the journey of the characters Hartford & Gia. They are relatable, real characters that I loved reading about. Their chemistry was something you cannot describe and was brilliant from the get go. Both of these characters have been having a really difficult time and are both broken in some way, but what they are yet to realise is that they could both be each other’s reasons to carry on fighting and find their HEA. Can they both overcome their past in order to find their happiness and love to move forward with their future.
There were a couple of times that I didn’t always expect to happen what happens, but that just makes this read even more enjoyable and captivating.
We cannot forget to mention the secondary characters that come into this read. They just help make this read even better, and they help bring out our main characters and compliment them as a whole.
I cannot wait to see what goes on in the rest of the series. I will be looking out for Book 3, hoping this isn’t the last of Gia & Hartford we get.
This is an incredibly captivating and compelling read that should not be missed, I highly recommend it!
LOVED Georgia On My Mind! Hartford and Gia’s stories are so unique. I was addicted to finding out more about them and seeing how they came together. I’m excited to read Georgia Pine, Book 3!

Georgia On My Mind, Southern Promises – Book Two by KG Fletcher . This is the second book in this series and also my second book by this author. I fell in love with the first book and I knew that this one would be no different. We caught glimpses of Hart in the first book when he moved home and in with his sister Katie.
Hart is back home living in his sisters house after losing his job in DC, when he was caught in a compromising position.
Gia Bates is struggling to survive and keep her dance studio above water. She is working anonymously as a Marilyn Monroe impersonator when she meets Hart. When he saves her after the party from a handsy guy, he knows that he needs to see and know more about her. Will they be able to overcome the obstacles in their path or will they be torn apart by those obstacles?
I loved this book and I can not wait for more from this author and this series!!!
A great read about hope. Gia Bates is a dance teacher in difficult financial times doing extra jobs on the side. When Hartford Parker comes to her rescue, she doesn’t realise it will start a new love and adventure. But can their love survive the trials of the past into a bright new future?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Hart trying to make a new start and caring underneath or Gia working for a better day but standing up for herself. Great supporting cast of fun friends like Angel or Ethan with humour the book needed.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel like with Angels cafe with sights and smells as if you were thers. Or In the dance studio with the barre and disco lights and mirrors was perfectly written as something hidden but magical. Or the colourful costumes beautiful to the last detail as colour in hard times. Gias passion for dance was beautifully written as an escape was emotive. overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.
Georgia On My Mind by KG Fletcher is the second book in her Southern Promises Trilogy and this one just keeps getting better and better. Georgia On My Mind directly follows Georgia Clay, book one in this series, so it is best to read this trilogy in order. Following the story of Hart and Gia, who we got to meet in book one through Katie, as Hart is one of her brothers. This book is one that will pull you in from page one, being a cutesy romance with allot of steam but quite a bit of angsty suspense as well. Both Gia and Hart of broken people looking for something that will help to bring them together. But what these two don’t understand is that the pieces of themselves that felt like they were broken were actually perfect fits for each other’s pieces. While Hart is looking to drink his problems away, once he meets Gia there is something about her that draws him in. Together both Gia and Hart has a type of chemistry that isn’t found in every relationship. The only problem is that Gia is weary of Hart and her past is making it hard to trust something that feels so good. The closer that they get to each other the more that she starts to feel suffocated and her freedom being stripped away. Will these two find a way to make it through their differences or will they let a perfect love match run its course on the back burner? Fletcher is an old favorite of mine, and having found this series of hers I can’t believe I didn’t find it sooner. I love every one of her characters, her storyline and the amount of steam she puts in each book is just enough to quench your thirst. If you are looking for a great author who writes great romance and even better happily ever afters than this is the one for you!
