Run to the Sea (Reigning Hearts Book 1)
By KG Fletcher
Run to the Sea is book one in the Reigning Heart series by KG Fletcher. What we have in this book is a wonderful second chance romance with the storyline centering around Emeline and Thomas. Emeline and Thomas before entering college had spent most of their summers together. What I liked about Emeline and Thomas is that I found both of their characters to be strong. How ever they both have gone down different paths in their lives which becomes apparent in how they are together and in the choices that they are making. I absolutely loved how this book came together and it didn’t take long to fall in love with the main characters. This is the type of story that in some places will pull on your heart strings and pull you right into the book with in the first few pages. I really do recommend this book and if the rest of the series is like Run to the Sea then I can’t wait to see what we have coming next.
Run to the Sea (Reigning Hearts Book 1) by K.G. Fletcher is a wonderful story about second chances. It is an emotional but heartwarming read and well written with characters that are sweet and lovable, sexy and each a little broken. I enjoy K.G.’s stories and this is no exception. It is a book that I was unable to put it down, I devoured it in one sitting because I had to know what was coming. The story complex and multi layered and yet totally simplistic and sizzling and sweet, sexy and tender.
Emeline was startled to see the man in front of her, her childhood best friend was just a boy when left. Seeing him now dredges up so many memories.
Thomas has lost himself and now he is back in the one place he once loved so much, a place that may soothe his soul. What he finds and finally realises is something he should have known.
I know you will love this sweet tale as much as I did. I am waiting to see what comes next from K. G.
Run to the Sea by K.G. Fletcher was this wonderful second chance romance about two childhood friends. Thomas “Cappy” Capshaw and Emeline “Em” Fischer spent every summer together before Cappy left for college. After year apart, Cappy has returned to Sanderville Beach to close up his grandfather’s gallery, what he didn’t expect to run into Em after all this time. Will Em forgive Cappy for never keeping in touch and why does Em feel like home more than New York?
Cappy and Em story pulled at all the right heartstring for me. I loved that even after his death Lawrence Capshaw was playing matchmaker with these two. I really wanted to hate Fiona but I ended up feeling sorry for her and looking forward to a book for her to get a HEA. Just like Kelly’s last series, she hooked me from the first chapter and has me wanting more of these characters.

Run to the Sea is a sexy sweet story about 2 long lost loves. Through no fault but their own, mostly Thomas’ fault, the two lose contact with each other. But fate brings them back together, hopefully forever.
Fletcher is not new to me but for some reason, she does surprise me every time I read one of her books. She’s a writer that pulls you into the story and takes you for an adventure. Nothing too wild and crazy but an adventure none-the-less.
This story is a stand-alone, meaning there is no story before it. Even though the characters have a past, Fletcher is able to tell their story with no confusion to the present events.
I recommend this story and this author. She is one to watch and one click every chance you get!
Wanna ‘run to the sea’ and get away? Well I do believe the that KG Fletcher has managed to encapsulate the perfect little weekend getaway between the covers of Run to the Sea. I absolutely could sit her and tell you for hours my favorite moments in this novel, there were many and truly it’d turn into a verbatim quote by quote review so you would only miss out on the good stuff for yourself that way. Instead I will tell you this is one of those books that just about anyone can relate to. We have all been at that point in our life that our MC’s were in, questioning every decision we ever made and if we are truly where we should be at this point in life. The moments worth making into a novel are the ones in which we make pivotal decisions in what we definitely need going forward. Cappy and Emmy both find themselves in this moment and we get a front row seat to all of the beautiful emotion, drama, laughter, love, and memories that accompany this.
I couldn’t put this book down from page one to the very end and found myself devouring it in just one short rainy afternoon. The scenery and the way that Fletcher writes it is transformative in the sense that I felt as if I was right there breathing in the salty sea air and the dragging my toes in the warm sand. I would say every moment was worth every bit of a five star rating and I can’t wait to find out what will come next from the pen of KG Fletcher!
Run to the Sea by K.G. Fletcher a five-star read that will make you hear the waves of the ocean. This is the first novel in the Reigning Hearts series, and I can’t wait for the next one, the passion and compassion will captivate you and compel you to read each page. Your emotions will go through the ringer with this one as the author has a great way of sucking you in and making you care about characters, K.G. Fletcher makes you feel like a part of the story so much that you will taste the guilt on your tongue. It’s a great story and the rest of the series can’t come quickly enough.

This is not the first book I’ve read by this author, so I knew going in I would love the story, but did not expect what I got. What emotion and depth I got from this story. I love best friend to lovers but this was just a little different than I’ve read before.
This seems to be a great start to a new series and I can’t wait to see where we go with the rest.

Run to the Sea was a wonderful read by K G Fletcher and one that I thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end. I really love this author and all of the books that I have read by her so far have all been wonderful reads. She has a writing style that is easy to read and her stories flow really well. She creates some amazing characters and Thomas and Emeline were no exceptions! I love a second chance romance and I absolutely adored watching these two characters come back together again and I was rooting for them to fall in love from the start! There were a few obstacles in their way but their story really had me hooked and I really grew to love then over their journey together. There were also some good supporting characters and I am really looking forward to reading more about them in the next book in the series!
Run to the Sea was a beautifully written story and one that I highly recommend!
Fletcher has without a doubt climbed into my heart and become firmly planted on my “read everything” list. This is another masterful, beautifully written story full of rich detail and wonderful characters. I loved every word, every page, and cannot wait to see how this series develops. Yet another story that stole my heart. *sigh*

This is Thomas (Cappy) and Emeline’s (Em) story. These two grew up as best friends until college got in the way and Thomas left, causing them to lose touch. When he returns home after his grandfather’s passing he sees Em.
Em is surprised to see Cappy after so many years. Seeing each other has caused some old feelings to rise. Em is now a painter and does some beautiful work. The more time they spending reminiscing the closer they get. Can these two possible reconnect and have something?
I really loved this story, my emotions were all over the place. There are some twists and turns as they go through the memories. Cappy was great, he was super sweet and a very sensitive man, he was feeling guilt for not staying in touch with his grandfather. Em was beautiful and talented. You could feel their connection coming right off the pages. K.G. Fletcher has once again pulled me right in with her writing. I look forward to reading more from this series.

Run to the Sea (Reigning Hearts #1)
By K.G. Fletcher
Rated 4 stars
This is a good solid book. I enjoyed Emeline. She seems so carefree. Not like many women in today society. She dances to her own drum beat. When her Best friend shows back up in town she is elated. But he is not the same and now there are many years and secrets between them.
I loved that both of these characters were artists. I am in awe of people that have that type of talent. Drawing or expressing through paint would be awesome. I loved that he drew her through the years. I also loved what his grandfather did.
This isn’t my first book by this author. I like how she portrays her characters. They are very down to earth and relatable. The story moves along at a good clip and is nice and romantic.

Women can be the definition of the devil. The vindictiveness alone could kill you. Cappy finds his childhood friend and feelings that he thought long forgotten resurface. Em is a busy body. The type of person who has to be involved with everything and help everyone. Their reunion wasn’t all hearts and flowers though. Fiona is a spoiled brat. Her glee over Thomas and Em’s pain was too much. I understand a broken heart better than most. What she did was wrong on many levels. The author did really well with this story. I enjoyed learning about Cappy and Em.
Run to the Sea by K.G Fletcher is the first book in the Reigning Hearts series. I have read other books by Ms. Fletcher and enjoyed them all, but this might be my favorite one to date.
Emmeline and Thomas have such a sweet story. They started out as childhood best friends and then Thomas disappeared without a word. They run into one after quite a few years and they are both blind sided by the run in.
Thomas had lost who he was due to being blinded by an ambition to prove himself. This story is so much more than a romance it is also about someone rediscovering who they are and where they really belong with a little help from friends and family.
This is a series I’ll be keeping up with so I can make sure I don’t miss a single book.
5 Star

Run to the Sea is the first book in the Reigning Hearts Series by K.G Fletcher. I love Ms. Fletcher’s books, so I was really happy to get my hands on this one.
We meet Thomas and Emeline who were childhood best friends- supporting each other through some difficult moments in their childhood. They talked about the future, sharing their hopes and dreams- but all that gets put aside when Thomas ends up working in New York City. He’s back in town after his grandfather’s death, which has resulted in Thomas inheriting a beach house. He soon runs into Emeline, and their past connection quickly comes bubbling to the surface- like all that time never passed and their bond is still strong. But there are hidden feelings- which takes them on an unexpected path. This is a great friends-to-lovers/second chances story full of rediscovery, choices, listening to your heart, trusting yourself, being true to yourself, and taking a chance.
The story is sweet, romantic, touching, and engaging. As I would expect from Ms. Fletcher, it is really well written, and the characters are quite endearing. I was hooked right from the beginning and read the story in one sitting.
I am looking forward to book #2!
Thank you, Ms. Fletcher!
Another wonderful story by this awesome author!!
This is a second chance romance story that kept me interested from the very first page. I don’t want to put it down! Thomas and Emeline are the main characters and I adored them. They grew up as best friends but as they go older feelings started to change. Can they make things work as a couple or are they destined to be just friends??
I loved this book and I am looking forward to reading more by this author!!
I would recommend this book to a friend!!
Happy Reading!!

Emeline and Cappy’s story..OH MY!
I fell in love with this author reading her Southern Promises Series, and by the way if you haven’t read that then go grab them, they are beyond awesome. I was so excited when I saw she had a new series out and I was not at all disappointed..Not sure if I can put in words what it is about this authors writing that draws me in and doesn’t let go literally till the end…I loved these people and the story about their bond as teens and how they came back together as friends dealing with the loss of a character who quickly became one of my favorites in this book. The scene with the box and the missing ring literally took my breath away and that’s when Pop completely won my heart.
I love how she transported me right into the story, I could see everything clearly and feel like I was right there in the same room with these people. I’m so excited to get my hands on the rest of this series, I loved Ginger in this story and can’t wait for Stars Fall From The Sky and completely curious as to how she is going to handle the Fiona story.
Grab this book, it is amazing and I’m sure you will love following Emeline and Cappy’s story as much as I did.
Awesome!!!
