I didn’t mean to see him naked–it was an accident.It had to be, right?Because Noah McCormick and I have never been anything more than friends. In all the years I’ve known him, he’s never once laid a finger on me. And even though he was a cute lifeguard at 16 and a hotter-than-hell sheriff’s deputy at 34, he’s always been that protective guy I could trust to keep his hands to himself. I never … I never wanted to mess with that.
Until I walked in on him getting out of the shower and saw his hard, muscular body totally bare and dripping wet. At that moment I never wanted to mess with anything so badly in my entire life.
I should have covered my eyes. Said I was sorry. At the very least, I could have handed him a towel.
After all, I was only in town for a few days, and he was just doing me a favor by escorting me to my sister’s wedding. It wasn’t a real date.
But I didn’t apologize. And he didn’t cover up.
(Talk about a hot mess.)
After all those years of being just friends, suddenly we’re insatiable.
He’s made it clear he’s not interested in romance. Which is fine with me because
I’ve got a plane ticket back to my real life at the end of the week.
It’s all in fun…or is it?

Noah and Meg are everything!
Gahh, I love Melanie Harlow’s writing. It’s sweet, sassy, and sexy. Insatiable is one of her best to date in my opinion. It’s a standalone in the Cloverleigh Farms series, and you have a self-sufficient and strong woman like Meg who comes back to her hometown for her sister’s wedding. She plans on meeting up with her best guy friend Noah, who is now a cop who has aged like fine wine. The sparks have always flown, but these two are the last to realize this. I love the combustibility of Meg and Noah, I love the story, and I adore this heartwarming town. Another winner!
I love a good friends to lovers storyline and this one is fantastic. Great chemistry and banter that will pull you in from beginning and hold you until the end. A great addition to this series!
“Not potato salad”
Noah is so dreamy! I absolutely loved Noah and Meg’s story. Insatiable is book #3 in the Cloverliegh Farms series. It can be read as a standalone. I would definitely read the first two books since it has the previous characters, that way you can get thier back story. Great job Melanie on another great love story.
My favorite of the series! I totally loved Meg and Noah. We’re three sisters into this series and Meg really just captured my heart!
So Meg, a career driven woman who left home at eighteen for college and never went back. Now a successful lawyer/strategist, she lives for her job which comes at the expense of all of her relationships. The only one she’s ever really been able to rely on is Noah, her best friend from back home who she has stayed in contact with over the years.
Noah, gorgeous K9 police officer. Dedicated to his family and trying to live up to his father’s legacy as the town Sheriff. He’s sworn off long term relationships since the last one burned him three years ago. Now he spends all his time with his dog Renzo and helping his mother take care of his twin brother. The only time he lights up is when he talks to his best friend Meg. They are so in sync, and can talk about anything. Even if he feels something more for her than friendship, he will never do anything that would jeopardize that special bond they have.
Melanie is one of my favorite writers of intricate relationships. She just nails it every time. I loved how she seamlessly rolled out this amazing friendship between Meg and Noah, how they both had feelings for each other that were more than just friends but both are too scared to ruin what they already have. So do you take the leap? Do you confess how you feel to see where it goes, or leave it be because it would cost too much to lose that person?
This story was not just about two friends exploring more, it was also about two people who needed to work out some unresolved conflicts within themselves that were holding them both back from experiencing true love and happiness. It is a very emotional story, and I will admit I teared up many a time reading!
All of our favorite Cloverleigh gang come along for the ride, and we get to see a little insight into the oldest sister Sylvia’s life that has me very excited for when her story releases.
As I mentioned above, this book is my favorite of the series (so far) because I just really connected with Meg and Noah for whatever reason. Melanie is blowing me away with the Sawyer sisters!
What a fantastic friends to lovers story! Meg and Noah had such a great rapport and such obvious chemistry. From the first page I was hooked and didn’t want to put this one down. Both characters were hesitant to enter into a serious relationship, but from their first kiss it was unmistakable that their affection for each other was more than casual. I swooned over Noah’s relationship with his K9 partner and enjoyed Meg’s relationship with her sisters. All three books in the Cloverleigh Farms series have been captivating and I am certainly looking forward to the next installment. Each book in the series can stand alone, but if this is your first read in the series, you should definitely go back and read he first two books as well.
Rated 4.5 Stars
Insatiable is sweet, hot and heartwarming. I absolutely loved Noah and Meg’s story. I swooned and sighed dreamily quite a lot while reading. They are just so perfect together. I readily admit that certain things Noah did annoyed me but other than that I thought this story was utter perfection. It had me emotionally invested, fully engaged and I can’t recommend it enough.

5 Insatiable Stars!
I am so in love with this third book in the Cloverleigh Farms series! This friends to lovers romance is so sweet, funny and very hot and sexy! Noah and Meg have been best friends for over half their lives. They have always been there for each other, even when they were miles apart. Meg just broke up with her boyfriend and is more hurt that she can’t find a love she wants to fight for than the loss of him. Feeling homesick, she comes home early for her sisters wedding and to be with the people she loves most. Noah is at the top of her list and they pick up effortlessly with their close bond. As she and Noah get reacquainted, and share their deepest secrets, they can no longer deny the attraction and heat between them. They became so insatiable for each other, and man is their passion explosive! But Noah loves his family and feels a strong sense of obligation towards them. He doesn’t feel like a committed romantic relationship would ever work for him. Soon they are on a rollercoaster of emotions that aren’t lining up. I loved the complexity of Meg and Noah’s relationship. It was so beautiful, tender, steamy, and organic. I loved how close they were with their families and how essential they were in their lives, helping them see what is right in front of them. Harlow writes such beautiful, and genuine stories, with diverse and alluring characters that feel so real and authentic, I can’t help getting happily lost in her words. This series is getting better with each sister! I loved this fun, emotional, and sexy romance and I can’t wait for more from Cloverleigh Farms!
The only thing I can say about Insatiable is that it ended too soon! I wanted more of Noah and Meg’s story. I am a sucker for friends to lovers romance and this one is EPIC!
Meg and Noah have an incredible friendship, but it is obvious that there is more there between them. However, they are both too scared to act on it for fear of ruining what they have. Fortunately for us, the undeniable current that flows between them was too strong to ignore. And holy smokes, they are fire together. But it isn’t just their chemistry in the bedroom, it is their relationship as a whole that makes this love story so beautiful!
Friendship can carry you through the hardships in life. A shoulder to cry on when needed, and the person you celebrate with when the reason occurs. Years have passed since the day that Noah saved Meg’s life during his days as a lifeguard. That moment sealed a friendship that has spanned the test of time, and holds true in spite of Meg and Noah’s different paths in life.
Now – Meg faces a breakup that leaves her wondering why she can’t find love. That sentiment follows Meg to the place she calls home. With a family wedding on the horizon, Meg heads home early to spend some time with Noah. Nothing could have prepared the duo for the sparks that would ignite during this trip. As one kiss ignites all of the pent up feelings, Noah and Meg know that their time together has an expiration date.
Insatiable will lead readers on another journey to Cloverleigh Farms. This story will follow Meg….the Sawyer sister who seems to have it all. With a strong career and life in the big city, Meg should be the envy of her family. However – Meg doesn’t have the capability to choose a partner that is truly in love with her. It’s a huge piece of life that just will not fall into place. Life in DC just doesn’t hold a candle to the calling of her hometown.
Noah is the hero that we all wish we could have in our lives. With a successful job, a wonderful family, and a life that is perfect to share with another – Noah doesn’t seem to desire finding that one true love in life’s journey. In spite of that reluctance, Noah has harbored feelings for Meg since their teenage years. With a push from family members, this duo will finally have to face the attraction that they have ignored for so long.
The secondary characters in this series play a HUGE role in Insatiable. Readers will be treated to interactions from some of their favorite Sawyer sisters from previous series. While this book ties in with the rest of the series, I do think it can be read as a standalone. A sexy man in uniform and a lawyer…..what more could you ask for in a romance??
I absolutely loved Noah and Meg!! Devoured this story pretty quickly because it was so good. A friends to lovers romance that is sizzling!
Noah and Meg have been friends for years. Ever since he saved her at 16. They have never crossed the line of friendship til now. Meg is home for a week for her little sister’s wedding and has just been dumped by her longtime boyfriend. Noah is a K-9 Sheriff’s Deputy and doesn’t do relationships anymore after a bad experience with his last girlfriend. He’s a protector and used to protecting everyone around him. Meg and Noah have major chemistry together, but don’t want to ruin their friendship. When she accidentally sees him naked in the shower, everything changes. The sex is very hot (handcuffs anyone) and the story is perfect. Throw in Renzo, Noah’s dog, meddling families and the crazy Sawyer sisters and you get one amazing story. Laughter, tears and finally a happily ever after that is the best ending for their story.

Love love love.
I couldn’t and didn’t want to put this one down !! These are my absolute favorite types of books !!!
I love this series and all the characters. I want to move there and make them all be my friends!!
I can’t wait till the next book !!
This story will make you melt !! I love Noah !!
This one my favorite of the series so far!!! I LOVE NOAH! I love meg! They couldn’t be more perfect for each other!
Tons of sweet moments. Just enough sexy times to keep your lady bits on fire. I was getting so antsy, I wanted to get to the next page quicker than I could read. These two had a great friendship that turned into something so much more. I could feel the want they had for one another, their chemistry ooooozed off the pages. I felt so giddy reading about them. I just love this book so so much! I adore all books my Melanie Harlow. She just knows how to write sweet romances with just enough angst. Her characters are always relatable and believable. Her men are all so swoon worthy and her heroines are always strong.
I didn’t know I had a thing for cops or men in uniforms until Noah, but then again, he is unique.
“Suddenly I found myself being spun around to face the wall, my arms being twisted behind me, amd something being snapped around mt wrists.
Oh my God. Handcuffs.”
Both, Meg and Noah, haven’t had a good history at dating but Noah will be hard to convince that he deserves to be happy. Meg will fight to show Noah that he deserves it and Noah will fight back about why he doesn’t.
“Maybe I would have this someday. Maybe it would be Meg and me making school lunches, in our kitchen (with Renzo still looking for scraps).”
I loved the previous two books but this one is my favorite so far. It’s funny but it will make you want to throw your kindle a couple of times. It’s sweet, sexy and super hot. I couldn’t ask for more of this book.
