What a wonderful series. Each of the Bennett siblings provides a fabulous romance while we get to know the whole family.
Your Irresistible Love: Well hello Bennett family. Layla Hagen has given us a wonderful cast of characters that has me excited for each of the family member’s stories. Sebastian Bennett leads off the tales; he has built a jewelry empire out of the need to make sure his family is taken care of. Growing up, their family didn’t have much so he made it his mission to become a success and ensure that his family wouldn’t want for anything. Along the way, he put work ahead of love and now all the women he dates are more interested in his bank account than him. Ava is brought into Bennett Enterprises to launch the next jewelry line with a fresh perspective. Ava is excited about her new assignment but she never expected Sebastian Bennett to light her fire. Ava isn’t allowed to date anyone she is working for; will she be able to keep her distance from Sebastian? Sebastian is challenged by Ava, which surprises him as she treats him like any other person. Will Sebastian be willing to let love into his life? Is Ava willing to risk her career to find true happiness?

I appreciate the great chemistry and banter that made me feel like they were my friends.
Your Captivating Love: Nadine is a fighter and a survivor. Her whole life, she has been the one taking care of everyone else while finding ways to do what she needs on her own. Logan Bennett tests these beliefs and boundaries since he is the one in his family that makes sure everyone is cared for and he is captivated by Nadine so naturally wants to care for her. Will these two strong-willed individuals find a way to meet in the middle? I loved how Nadine really stuck to her guns and who she is, not giving in to Logan. He really has to work to find a way to help her. There connection as a couple is fabulous since they have a lot in common, both are driven, care-givers that know what they want. We also get to experience the entire Bennett family, getting more insight into their family along with who might be in the matchmaker cross-hairs next. What a fabulous series to get carried away with.
Your Forever Love: I want Pippa to be my friend. She is a lot of the glue in the Bennett family, she is also the matchmaker of the bunch but in this story, her siblings turn the tables on her. Pippa is an amazing business woman but her first husband really did a number on her and left her emotionally scarred, believing she’s not worthy or ever going to find love. When Eric Callahan comes to San Francisco to expand his business, his daughter Julie becomes the catalyst to put him directly in Pippa’s path. Julie is an aspiring jewelry designer so Pippa offers to help coach her before she starts a design class. Eric is jaded, he lost his wife in a car accident that almost took Julie too. He’s focused solely on Julie and giving her the best life possible so connecting with Pippa isn’t on his radar but he can’t seem to get her out of his mind. There is great chemistry between Pippa and Eric with Julie providing a great foil to them both with Pippa’s siblings assisting to get these two together.

I love the Bennett family and Layla Hagen has a fabulous writing style that makes me feel like I’m living the tale and that these characters could be my friends. A wonderful balance of love, humor with just the right amount of sexiness and drama to keep me turning the page.
Getting the chance to read Your Irresistible Love by Layla Hagen made my heart glad. I received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review and found it to be a sexy, flirty, all around good time with a tremendous amount of heart. Not only did I get to read a great book, I discovered a new author and was introduced to a heartwarming new series. Can I just say every family can take a few pointers from the Bennetts, To have started with nothing but their love for one another and faith that something better was on the horizon takes courage. As the oldest Sebastian took on the responsibility of looking out for his family. With hard work, his parents backing and faith he succeeded. Now wealthier and as united as ever the Bennetts are a force to be reckoned with in business but duds in the game of love.
Your Irresistible Love is Sebastian and Ava’s story. So focused on success for his family, Sebastian has forgotten how to cut loose and have fun. Ava brings out the care free man that others don’t see. I liked these two together because they helped each other to relax and enjoy what was taken for granted in the past. This was a wonderful intro to what looks to be an entertaining and touching series.
The Bennetts are back. More adorable than ever. What struck me in Sebastian and Ava’s story (Your Irresistible Love) is how close this family is. They work together, play together, worry together and even do matchmaking together. It’s the Bennetts against the world and everything they do is out of love for one another. Layla Hagen uses family as a stepping stone and a focal point. By doing this she lets her readers know what is important to these alpha males and focused females. Love personified is how I would describe it. I received an ARC of Your Captivating Love in exchange for an honest review. I have been looking forward to reading Your Captivating Love since I finished the first story in this series and learned that Logan’s story was next. To put up with these men a woman has to be strong, secure and driven. She also has to have an amazing heart and a strong capacity for love. We saw a little bit of Nadine in Ava and Sebastian’s whirlwind love story and I was so glad to find out more about her. She’s a pistol but when she connects with someone, she cares deeply. Complexity does not always make a good story. Sometimes simplicity makes all the difference. I love this series.
