Release Blitz & Book Review: Tanner by Jeannine Colette and Lauren Runow


Tanner: A Sexton Brothers Novel
by Jeannine Colette and Lauren Runow
Age Group: Adult
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 7th, 2019

Blurb:

“A kiss was all I needed.”
“Looks like you got what you wished for.”
“Yes. About that…”

I was supposed to find a finely dressed businessman, have a one-night stand and forget about my failed relationship. Instead, I meet Tanner Sexton—a gorgeous man in street clothes, messy hair and the sexiest smile I’ve ever seen.

When my ex shows up at the bar, Tanner notices my panic and kisses me just so the prick can see. Then he takes off, leaving me breathless.

So, I do what any rational person would. I chase after him onto the subway, and embark on a wild night in New York City with a complete stranger.

No matter how much I fight it, this mysterious artist painted his soul onto my skin, and I haven’t been able to forget him. Our romance is one for the ages, but age isn’t the only thing standing in our way.

 My review:
'”Are you ready to rewrite your story?”'
♥ Tanner alias Thor was probably the hottest man of the Sexton brothers. I’m not sure though if he could kick Bryce from the top because he’d set the bar very high. But they were so different from each other, not only by age but also their characteristics, and I am a greedy woman so I just want them both. =P
'He's a gorgeous, expressive, talented, soul-igniting man who set me on fire.'
I absolutely loved how passionate and caring Tanner was. He was so smart and very talented with his body and mind, so very special with his creativity and art. He swept me off my feet and I was like melting chocolate in his hands. I envied Harper for how lucky she was because I'd have given anything to have him paint me. =P SO HOT! #favorite
'I've never in my life been kissed with as much passion and conviction as I just was by a complete stranger.'
I devoured this book. It completely enchanted me and had me feeling all the feels. I wasn’t sure if my heart could take any more because Tanner was like the most perfect hero. This story was so perfectly written, it had me swooning, laughing, crying, and most of all falling in love with its characters.

I'm going to miss these brothers so much.

The story had me captured right from the start. I loved how Harper and Tanner met at the bar without the cliché pick-up lines and intentions of an easy lay. I loved how unexpected and magical their unforgettable evening turned out to be.
'This man can caress me so intimately, caressing me with his kisses and touches, loving me with his glances and words.'
Tanner studied in New York because he loved the freedom that nobody knew him here, whereas back at home his wealthy family was well known due to their successful media company.
I loved how mature he was for his age and that he and Harper fit together so well. I was also very happy about the setting outside of San Francisco because the previous two books had been set around the company and all the drama going on with the family. So I was very glad that Tanner and Harper could find to each other almost without much influence from all the family drama for a while. If you've read the previous two books, you'll know what I’m talking about, and if you’re new to this world, then hold on tight because this drama had its heartbreaking showdown in this book.
The ending broke my heart for the boys and I cried so hard. But I loved the epilogue which was a fantastic ending to this amazing series.
'He has a powerful presence, yet, when I'm this close, I can see a vulnerability to him.'
I'm a huge Friends fan myself, so I loved all the references in this book. I also had an instant connection with Harper’s character because of it.
'We're two strangers on a train, knowing that whatever we decide in the next moment might dictate our fate for the rest of our lives.'
I don't even know what else to say. I was flipping through the book again to help me find some words for my review but all I could do was admire the beautiful words that were written. So all I can say is read this book! Even if you haven't read the previous ones (although you really miss out on some great stories), you need to pick up this wonderful book.

I hope these authors will co-write more books together because they definitely created magic with this one.
