The Nearness of You- K.G. Fletcher
5-stars
The Nearness of You is a fantastic romance read by K.G. Fletcher. It’s a love story that took me on an emotional roller coaster ride of emotions. From the very first chapter I was captivated by Lauren and David, their chemistry was simply undeniable which held my attention the whole way through.
I really appreciated all of the detail that this author used, from past moments and feelings, surroundings and emotions it was all there making the story flow seamlessly. This is a book I know I’ll be reading again and for that reason I would recommend it to anyone looking for their next romance read.
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future!
The Nearness of You is fast paced, David and Lauren feeling the L word right away, even if they wait to say it. They are magnetically drawn to each other from the first night, him inviting her to a family wedding the next day! Of COURSE dating a famous person isn’t easy and there are obstacles. The last of which is his busy schedule. His assistant was a heartless evil gremlin of a woman, who I wished many bad things upon throughout the story. Things get pretty emotional in my opinion, but it all works out with a happy ending. I was entertained and pulled in by these two lovebirds.

I love this author! I have read several of her books and have never been disappointed. This one is another winner. This is a love story between Lauren Rose (a lounge singer) and David Randle (a British supermodel). They meet unexpectedly while he’s in town for his sister’s wedding. They hit it off while having drinks after her gig at the St. Regis Hotel. On a spur of the moment decision, David decides to invite her as his guest to the wedding. They have instant chemistry and bond rather quickly. They are both falling hard and fast for each other and despite their conflicting schedules, decide to make a go of it.
Not everyone is happy about their budding relationship and David’s assistant Sabrina causes major problems for Lauren. I felt so bad for her. From the beginning of the book, I loved Lauren and my heart broke for her. I cried with some of the things that she had to endure. I really didn’t like Sabrina! I loved this book and found it was a quick read seeing as I couldn’t put it down.
The Nearness of You by KG Fletcher was so adorable. At first I kept thinking that it was a little far fetched that a regular plain Jane would meet a male model, but the story was beautifully written. It was like a fairytale movie and I was obsessed. David was thee perfect guy, thoughtful, caring, romantic and BRITISH! I really wish I had Lauren’s taste in clothing and music. Her old soul fit in perfectly with the story. The attention to the details of her dress, of the environments, of both characters was breathtaking. The author does an amazing job with her descriptions and making the reader feel like they are in the stories. I throughly enjoyed reading their love grow, they had an amazing connection. The story was a smooth and fast read. I read it in a day needing to know what would happen. I would love to read more about these characters or even of David’s sister and brother in law!
A great read about opposites. Lauren Rose is a talented singer living in Atlanta struggling to make it in the show business. One Friday night she performs in a hotel like any other night. But her life is changed forever when she meets supermodel David Randle at the gig and finds instant chemistry with him. Their passion blossoms while attending his sisters wedding, but when he returns to Britain, will their love survive the distance?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns. Well developed characters like Lauren doing what she loves despite the struggles or David drive for ambition but a kind heart underneath. Great cast of supporting characters like the colourful and wise Jordan or the sweet and supportive Catherine. I loved the use of music in the novel with the songs used and Laurens passion for music as a lovely touch. i also loved the use of the senses with taste and smell and touch in the breakfast place to make it feel as if you were actually there. i alos loved the scenes in the wedding full of life and people and also loved the use of opposites used throughout the novel which worked well to create contrasts. Overall, a great read and i would give it four stars.
The Nearness of You by K. G. Fletcher is another stunning and breathtaking romance that readers can immerse themselves in effortlessly and wholeheartedly.
I couldn’t help but love everything about Lauren and David. Lauren sang from her soul and David was her match. Their love was explosive and absorbing. Not everyone was happy about that and they found themselves facing impossible and heartbreaking situations. I was cheering for them to triumph over the odds stacked against them, because a chemistry such as theirs cannot be ignored or denied.
A love story of substance, complexity and thrilling passion. K. G. Fletcher is one seriously talented author and one of my most treasured discoveries. 5 stars.
The Nearness Of You by K.G. Fletcher. I LOVED this book, once I started it I didn’t put it down until I was finished. Its the story of unassuming, sweet Lauren Rose a lounge singer looking to make it big. She leads the life of a everyday girl until she meets British Super Model David Randle who is in Atlanta for his sister’s wedding. Sparks fly immediately. The only problem is his assistant is not happy with David’s new love interest. It is taking time from his super crazy schedule. Will she be successful in breaking them up or will love win out. I fell in love with David and I could just hear his British accent in my head. I rooted for him and Lauren thru the whole story. It was a super fun read!
The Nearness of You is a stand-alone read from author K.G Fletcher. This is my fourth read from this author and she continues to never disappoint. She continues to astound me with her incredible characters and even better story lines. I was completely hooked and captivated with this read from the start and unable to put it down until I was finished. I can absolutely say this is by far the best book I have read by K.G Fletcher. But I still cannot wait to see what else she brings.
Both of these characters are relatable, lovable and totally perfect for each other. It was amazing to read their journey, following their ups and downs, and the obstacles that they face. But from the start, there was still something between these two that was undeniable totally perfect. Both of these characters had me swooning especially David, but come on once you read this read you will understand why.
With a few twists and turns that are thrown into the mix, this is the perfect read, amazing characters, brilliant storyline, it’s romantic, funny and an easy flowing read right from the start – it’s a book that should not be missed!

5 out of 5 stars
I thought I had recently become a really big fan of KG Fletcher’s writing, hooked on her stand alone Southern Promises series. When I stumbled across The Nearness of You it was a no brainer that I had to give this romance a chance too. As usual, I was far from disappointed but I realized just how much I was missing about KG Fletcher! What I do know is that KG Fletcher has a knack for creating characters you can’t help but love, they’re realistic, relatable and the kind of people you can’t help but root for.
What I’ve somehow been missing is KG Fletcher’s musical talent and the way she incorporates music and lyrics into her romance novels. I have always been someone that is drawn to the lyrics of a song so while I was looking over the amazing playlist from The Nearness of You and taking in the musical inspiration for Lauren and David’s story I was impressed to see a Cabernet act as well, incredible!
You didn’t come here for a review of the author so I’ll get back to the point! Lauren and David’s story gripped me from the very beginning with the realistic interaction between the two of them,
Lauren’s personality is so real you feel as though you’re just observing an old friend and KG Fletcher’s attention to detail really sets the perfect tone for this story, making you feel like you’re right in the midst of everything.
The Nearness of You is the perfect combination of romance and twists and turns in all the right places, with conflict that is realistic and writing that keeps the pages turning until the early morning hours. I swear I’ve read each of these author’s books in record time, they’re the kind you just don’t want to put down. I am looking forward to reading the last two books on my to be read list by this author and I will be highly recommending the Nearness of You next time I’m asked for a book recommendation…

What a great book! I felt really connected to these characters in a way I haven’t in a long time. You really get to know them and see them for who they are and I liked how real they felt.
When a supermodel and a singer cross paths the last thing they expect is the sparks. I mean who wouldn’t want that with a sexy male model but these lit my kindle on fire.
I couldn’t put this book down until I got to the end, life went on with this book in my hands for a whole day!
The Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher was a great whirlwind romantic love story. I loved the way Lauren and David met and how they just connected.
With as connected as they were they still had their issues in the relationship, self esteem or lack of can cause so many problems. I could imagine the level of insecurity Lauren was feeling while with David.
David with his sexy British accent to go with his incredibly sexy face and body. Whew, I do wonder if the image I got matches up with what anyone else came up with.
I have read a few other books by Ms. Fletcher and she has impressed me with her stories and writing. She is quickly becoming an author I keep an eye on to see if there is anything new.
The Nearness of You by K.G. Fletcher is a fantastic heartwarming romantic story. I have now read several book by this author and they are fast becoming one of my favourites. Everything I’ve read of theirs so far, I have thoroughly enjoyed.
Lauren Rose is a lounge singer in a bar in Atlanta. One evening after performing a very handsome man chats with her at the bar. He is in town for his sister’s wedding. The 2 hit it off instantly and he is drawn to her in a way he has never known before. On impulse, he invites her to be his date for the wedding. It turns out that he is David Randle, top male supermodel.
The chemistry between Lauren and David is electric and they quickly realise that what they feel could really become something special. However, there is the fact that he is a top model in the UK and she lives in Atlanta. Added to the mix is David’s assistant who will do everything possible to break the couple up.
I absolutely loved the characters of Lauren and David. It was obvious immediately to me that the author’s muse for David was British supermodel David Gandy. Well, that’s because I’m a huge fan of him. It was certainly no problem in picturing him in my head while reading this story.
With everything that seemed to be in the way to stop Lauren and David having their happily ever after, I was rooting for them from the very beginning. These 2 needed each other in their lives.
I would urge anyone to read this book. You will not be disappointed.

The Nearness of You is a wonderfully romantic and captivating story by the extremely talented K.G Fletcher. I absolutely love Ms. Fletcher’s books and have fallen in love with every single one I have read!! She has a warm, sexy, almost lyrical style to her writing which really lends itself to the beautiful stories and characters she creates. This book was almost like watching an old Hollywood movie, but with a modern spin. Speaking of movies, this story would make a fabulous film!! The story is so perfectly sexy and romantic, with just enough tension, sparks, emotion, and drama to keep things really interesting.
As I have come to expect from Ms. Fletcher, this story played quite a fine tune with my emotions, I really was emotionally invested in the characters and the outcome of their story- feeling everything they went through right alongside them. I was completely hooked, right from the beginning, because it was so easy to read and so very easy to love Lauren and David. These two are really quite wonderful- lovingly created and fully developed individuals who were both so endearing. They had a sizzling connection, and their chemistry sparked right off the pages.
David is a famous male model who’s in town to attend his sister’s wedding. I loved him so much, he’s quite the swoony one, a perfect book boyfriend to add to my collection. He definitely has a ‘David Gandy’ feel to him, not that I’ve met Mr. Gandy in person, but I can imagine that he would be a lot like this David. Lauren is a real sweetheart, a wonderful singer who dreams of making it big on the music scene someday. They meet, and the sparks ignite. David introduces her to his world and things get really interesting. Is he looking for something permanent, or just a diversion? Can she get her head around his somewhat crazy lifestyle? Will these two find the happiness they’ve both been searching for?
This gave me all the ‘feels, and then some!
So worth the read!!
Thank you, Ms. Fletcher!

I think that this has to be my favourite story by this author so far. I absolutely loved reading Lauren and David’s story. Lauren is one of those character who you instantly find a connection with, she is genuinely really nice and a real down to earth person. David had that British charm that I really love and I adored him! The romance between the two was so sweet and I thought that their connection was really natural and genuine. There was a bit of angst running through the story with a certain secretary!
One of the things that I love about this author is her ability to make me feel like I am right there living the journey along with her characters. Her attention to detail is amazing and she really brings her stories to life.
As always I will definitely be looking forward to the next book from this very talented author!
The Nearness of You by KG Fletcher. This book is a standalone contemporary romance. As soon as I started this book, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to put it down until I was done. I got sucked into the story.
Lauren is just going about her normal routine when she runs into none other than David Randle. She is so nervous and got off guard. Then the unexpected happens. He invites her to breakfast and a wedding and they bond over their many similar interests. David can’t really explain it but he just wants Lauren around as much as possible. However, there is someone that doesn’t want Lauren around and will stop at nothing to make sure she’s not.
I really enjoyed this book. The author has such an attention to detail that makes you feel like you are living the story with the characters. David is such a gentleman and you could feel how much he cared for Lauren and her feelings. By the end of the book you could really tell what Lauren was made of and how strong and sure of herself she was. All in all, the book was such a great read!
