One Hundred Ways
Kelly Collins
This is the first book I have read in this series, but it is the eighth book in it, and it was soooo good!
I love this series. Ms. Collins has such a gift for writing books. I could feel Riley’s emotions throughout the book. Riley has been beat down most of her life so her self worth is at an all time low. After her father dies, she moves to Aspen Cove to start over and get to know her aunt and cousin who live there. She has a love of welding for art which is unusual for a woman. She does not hit it off with the town’s fire chief Riley when she first hits town. Riley is definitely a stickler for safety, but boy is he handsome! I loved how the two threw sparks off each other from the beginning. Of course they were not all good sparks! Riley can’t figure out if Meg, the other waitress she works with, is a friend or foe. I love reading about the small towns and how everyone knows your business, but also everyone sticks up for their own. I loved the book, and strongly encourage you to read it. I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader’s Copy of the book.
One Hundred Ways (Aspen Cove #8) was a good read by Kelly Collins. Sculptor Riley Black goes to Aspen Cove after her father’s death. Her welcome isn’t warm when firefighter Luke Mosier sees her violating fire safety codes. Luke will do anything to keep the citizens of Aspen Cove safe.

I really enjoyed reading this book and cant wait to read more by the author.

I enjoy the Aspen Cove series. This audiobook was ok, but not one of my favorites.
Riley was much too forgiving, and it was obvious from the very beginning who was causing her all of her problems. I liked that Luke had Riley’s back although he did have issues communicating. Luke managed a number of times to speak before he thought.
When Riley finally called her stepmother, I was shocked at her reaction. There is such a thing as forgiveness, but Riley was ridiculously kind.
Another sweet, small town a Aspen Cove romance.
This audiobook takes us back to Aspen Cove. A place where many not only arrive to find a second chance in life, but also unexpectedly find love when they least expect it.
This time it’s Fire Chief Luke Mosier’s and newcomer Riley Black’s story.
Riley arrives in town to start a new life at the invitation of her aunt. She’s an artist that works with fire and steel, and due to a past history, very careful and conscious of the dangers of it all. But when she meets Riley, he gives her the third degree.
As they give in to the attraction, accidents occur and fingers are pointed.
Will that drive them apart? Will the people in town believe her or others?
It’s a story about hope, new beginnings and discovering that there are one hundred ways in life and in love.
Can’t wait to see whose story will be next.
I was entrusted a copy of this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

I loved this book. Riley comes to Aspen Cove to find some of her family, her father died and er step mother “hates”her and made her move out. Riley feels like she has no where else to go, she has a secret about herself and fears people will leave if they find out what it is. Riley is a sculptor just like here day and works with metal and fire.
Luke the towns fire chief meets her and he thinks she is irresponsible and an accident waiting to happen, she can’t convince him that he is wrong.
Riley starts working at her Aunt’s diner with another waitress Meg who only has eyes for Luke. Luke wants nothing to do with her.
Strange fires start happening and Riley thinks the whole town blames her, but is it really her.
You won’t regret picking up this book, and why just stop at this one, the entire Aspen Cove series is great.

This was a fantastic new story in the Aspen Cove series about a man who wanted to get back to small town living and a woman wanting a new start and needing a place to finally belong. Luke is an alpha make fire chief who protects the town of Aspen Cove. Riley is a metal artist who has finally left her naysaying stepmother behind following the death of her father. Sparks fly but so do tempers when these two meet for the first time. Follow Luke and Riley as they find happiness and a place to belong in One Hundred Ways. One Hundred Ways was filled with heartache, danger, forgiveness, healing, small won friendship, passion, and love. Kelly Collins creates heartwarming stories about family, courage, and healing and One Hundred Ways doesn’t disappoint. This is a must read readers won’t want to put down. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.

Yet another great addition to the Aspen Cove Novel series.
I just love this small town and the people there I got to know and like. One Hundred Ways was a lovely story about self discovery, trust and forgiveness.
Both Riley and Luke were loveable characters. I think they were great for each other. They both were reasonable enough to listen what others said, to take sound advice.
They had their flaws too and those made them more realistic to me.
All in all Ms. Kelly Collins did a great job again. She delivered a lovely story with great writing.
Having read the rest of the series, it was a delight to visit Aspen Cove once more with Luke and Riley’s story. Luke is a strong hero but Riley is still trying to allow her true self to come out. Despite Luke’s initial censure, Riley surprises herself by standing up to him in what was an amusing introduction. Whilst Riley’s aunt and cousin are delighted that she has joined them in the small town where everyone knows each other’s business, there is a fly in the ointment that makes Riley question herself. It takes all of Luke’s resources and understanding to teach Riley to love the person she is. With the help of longtime residents of the small town, Riley eventually recognises that if she wants to move forward, she has to make peace with her past. I enjoyed this well-written romance and the sense of comradery that one experiences among the characters. Although this book is part of a series, it is a standalone and comes to a happy and successful conclusion. I received a copy of this book as a gift and this is my honest and voluntary review.
After her father’s death, Riley Black goes to Aspen Cove to live with her aunt and cousin, Dalton, in search of getting to know herself and find a way into her life. In addition of giving a chance at her dream of becoming an artist.
Luke Mosier is one of the city’s firefighters, and when he sees Riley for the first time, the attraction is immediate, but because he always cares for the safety of the city’s residents, he ends up talking things that make Riley angry and not so willing to know him better.
When misunderstandings are resolved, they can’t deny their attraction to each other, but they find some obstacles along the way, like Meg.
Riley begins to bloom at Aspen Cove, finally belonging to a place, doing her artwork and succeeding.
I loved the story and the characters, as always, are perfect. Kelly Collins can always leave us wanting more of these Aspen Cove characters.
I highly recommend the reading.
Riley is looking to find herself. She moves to Aspen Cove where her aunt and cousin live. Her aunt has a job for her at her diner and at night she can create her metal art. Luke is the fire chief in Aspen Cove. He’s ready for a relationship. Riley and Luke rub each other the wrong way at first but the sparks are there. I really loved this story. It is romantic, funny and has a little drama. It’s the first I’ve read in this series but won’t be the last.
This is the first book in this series I’ve read and I loved the story line. Riley moves to Aspen Cove after the death of her father. She’s not running from her past, just running to a new future. Kelly Collins does a great job making you feel you’re right in the story with the characters. I can’t wait to read the rest of the books in the series.

I have read every book in the Aspen Cove series and One Hundred Ways is another excellent addition to the series. Because this is a small town series with reoccurring characters, I recommend reading the series in order for maximum enjoyment. Luke is Aspen Cove’s fire chief. He’s a nice guy but a bit of a by the book personality. Riley is the cousin of Dalton who works at the diner with his mother Maisy (see why I recommend reading the series in order!) and she is starting a new chapter in her life by moving to Aspen Cove. One of her first experiences is with the quick to judge without doing his research fire chief! These two may start off as opposites but they’re definitely attracted and as we know in Aspen Cove, love will always prevail! Their story is told from dual POV and I recommend this to all small town romance fans that enjoy a bit of heat in their romance.
We are back in Aspen cover and Riley has just arrived in town deciding to take back her life with the support of her Aunty and cousin. Unfortunately for Riley as soon as she gets into town things start to go wrong not due to the bad luck she thinks she has that follows her but to a miss understanding and this in turn sees her relationship with Luke become a bit of a roller coaster ride. It was great seeing everyone from the other books appear in this one and you feel like you have come home while you laugh, want to try, get frustrated and hope that Riley and Luke may get together, but they have a force working against them which leaves you chewing your nails hoping they make it and Riley’s self doubts and Luke’s stupidity doesn’t run Riley out of town.

Riley had stayed with her father until his death, despite her step-mother making life difficult with hateful barbs.
Finally free she takes up on an offer from her aunt and cousin to move to Aspen Cove and finally work as the artist she is, wealding sculptures to her heart
content, while earning a little money at her aunt’s diner.
She makes friends and small-scale enemies when local fire-chief Luke shows an interest in her.
A nice, light story, entertaining and partly funny, especially as the relationship with Riley and Luke starts of on a mis-understanding.
A good read for a few hours of entertainment.

This is the eighth book in this series’s.
When ever a new book comes out in the Aspen Cove
it like returning home and caching up with old friends
a making new ones. Fantastic plot and the characters are
definitely alive on the pages.
Riley, a metal sculptor, escapes to Aspen Cove to get away from her stepmother after her father passes away. Luke, the fire chief, is not too happy with Riley and her welding setting off fire alarms. I really loved these two together and their chemistry is full of sparks and heat. This is a well written touching story that had me hooked from the first page until the last. I can’t wait to see what this author comes up with next.
