I think this is the first book by Kristen Ashley I read. Loved Lauren and Tate. The dialogue is on point and the story keeps you interested. Tate starts out a little rough. Comes off rude and a tad demeaning. But hang in there. In the end he’s a good guy. Strong. Tough. Loyal. And Lauren is funny, smart and your average girl. The ride …

To say that I loved Sweet Dreams is seriously understated. This book completely wrecked my my mind of anything else while I was reading it. Through the day I kept thinking that I had to know what was going to happen with Tate and Laurie. Tate was unlike any character I have ever read; he was so deep even when he was being an ass you could tell he …
This is a book I reread all the time. Love the interactions between characters and the original story line. Always a super sexy read.
It is my Favorite book right now!
I have been bouncing all over this Colorado Mountain series, but fortunately, its written in such a way that I can get away with that. Sweet Dreams has long been most people’s favorite not only of this series, but all of the author’s books. I’ve read some pretty spectacular ones from her so that’s saying a lot. It was with great anticipation that …
This about Lauren Grahame ,and Tate Jackson. Tate was mean to Lauren at first and then she didn’t like him after something he said, hurt her feeling. Lauren already having a bad time her husband was cheating on her with a friend. And this story is so good.
Kristen Ashley is an author I follow and love. Her characters are outstanding and never boring. Great read!
Just Wonderful!!
The first time I read Sweet Dreams I found I didn’t care for Tate all that much and Lauren made me want to hit my head against a wall, but there was something about the story that captured my attention and had me rereading again. Third time is the charm because this go around I settled in and held on for the ride! While Tate is still an alpha …
I’m a little disappointed this wasn’t set in the town of Gnaw Bone in the first book. I really got into the side characters there. It took me a bit longer to warm up to the town of Carnal. It’s described as more of a biker town so the characters were harsher. I still ended up really liking everyone, but it missed that warm and fuzzy feeling you …
4.5
I absolutely loved Lauren and Tatum . They were not perfect but real.
Messy. Passionate. Angry. Caring. Special.
The supporting characters were just as great.
I can’t wait to read more of her work.

Thank goodness for the Romanceopoly 2020 Challenge by @UTCBookBlog and @PeaceLoveBooksXO so that I can read …

Sweet Dreams by Kristen Ashley was just as good as all the other KA books. I fell in love with this series with the first book, and I was not disappointed with book number two.
