Wow!! Where can I find a Levi! This is easily one of the cutest romance novels and frequently found myself swooning. Levi and Fawn are a couple that just make sense and are so realistic. Definitely #relationshipgoals.

I've always enjoyed books by this author so I was excited to jump into this new series. I really liked Levi & Fawn's story & all the secondary characters were great & added a lot too. I'm looking forward to reading more about Fawn's sisters

Running Into Love
Aurora Rose Reynolds
4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a super sweet romance. Levi is every woman's dream come true. Really enjoyed Fawn's character and her crazy family. I also liked how the author added a bit of drama in the story with Fawns students mother disappearing and what happened to Levi after.
Thanks NetGalley for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

I'm a bit on the fence with this ARR book some parts I enjoyed and some just fell a bit flat for me and rushed it may just be my mind set right now but I didn't enjoy it as much as I normally would an ARR book.

Levi like all ARR men was a complete alpha and a tad swoon worth and Fawn she was a fun light h and I did like her she actually made the story for me and I did lol at times because of her antics.

After becoming neighbours they start a relationship through a bit of crazy from both of there families and you get a quirky fun sexy read.

I really loved this book and I can’t wait to read more. I loved the characters – especially Levi. He’s perfection. Great pacing, strong story. It came together really well for me. I’d say this one is sexy but sweet as well as lighthearted and fun! I loved the side characters (mostly their families) & they were fantastic. If you like a romance with some humor, this may be just what you’re looking for!

I'm so torn when it come to rating and reviewing this book. I really, really liked the first half. It was sweet, quirky, and the chemistry was great between Fawn and Levi. But the second half, I don't know... maybe it was that they got together so quickly and the remaining tension was either goofy (with their families) or glossed over (with her student's mom)? Something... the second half just felt a little flat, especially when the first half was too good to put down. I've never read this author before and I'd definitely give her another try, but I think I'd be picky about it.
Fawn was cute, if quirky and a little immature and awkward about relationship. I applaud her honesty about dating in today's world, but it was also cringe-worthy to read. Levi - again, I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, he reminded me a LOT of Edward Cullen from Twilight. He even mentions at one point that he wants to possess or own her. I get it. It's not supposed to be creepy and weird. It's a romance novel and it's supposed to be adorable and swoon worthy and sexy. But still, it was just a little...much. (So was his mouth. The amount of foul language in this book was almost distracting. As were the number of times someone "muttered" when they should have been murmuring or something the like. Distracting.) On the other hand, he was very protective, sweet, and nurturing to Fawn. But their relationship also seemed to move really fast. Especially considering he was so concerned with her feelings and her "understanding" what that truly meant. (Which, FYI, we're never really given any of his reasons for saying that or what it actually means. It came across as just brooding to be brooding.) I just felt like for the characterization that had been created for Fawn that moving in within 2 months of meeting/dating someone was a little fast. I also felt like Levi had some walls up that just suddenly disappeared when he got close with Fawn. I would have loved to see a little more depth on that end, but again, I realized that's not really the book I signed up for. Same with the subplot about the murdered hookers and Fawn's student's mom. I would have loved to read more about that, but it wasn't really the purpose of the book.
I definitely recommend the first half of this book - it was the definition of a page turner. And since they pretty much get together by then, you *could* almost stop there. I'm not a one-and-done kind of reader, so I'd definitely be interested in reading some of the author's other books. Overall, if you love adult romances (with quite a few fairly graphic sex scenes and enough language to make your grandmother blush), cute neighbors, a hint of a mystery, and some fun characters, this is definitely a book you should check out. 3.5/5 stars

This book had my favorite trope: The meet-cute. The H & h's first meeting was puzzling- to me. Why was the h, Fawn running with her eyes closed? Yeah Levi had every right to think that something was up with her.
In spite of that, Levi had instant attraction to Fawn.
This book was very light reading. AND.... I liked it. I enjoyed myself.
Fawn is a 5th grade school teacher in NYC. She's a ditz-outside of the classroom. The few scenes of her in the classroom, she's very professional.
Levi, as I mentioned really appreciates Fawn. Levi is an NYPD detective.
The chemistry is great. Levi is an "Alpha Sweetie" He demands with a twinkle in his eye & waits to see if Fawn will say yes or turn him down.
I got to read both POVs.. Levi's dialogue and his thoughts reminded me of the Hs in KA's Colorado Mtn series.
Fawn & Levi's family meet each other and The Thanksgiving to Remember begins. Complete with 2 cray- zee moms, dads, brothers, sisters, in laws, kids, Muffin the Dog( I love Muffin!) and of course- the Bitch sister in Law that hates wonderful sweet Fawn.
This book really kept my attention and I laughed quite a few times. The right book at the right time.
I received this as an ARC & kept it on my tbr. I decided to dive in and found a fun read to start my holiday season.
Sorry, it's true: I Love Lucy got kicked off Hallmark channel til January (grrr), Costco has the Christmas stuff; authors are putting out the Christmas novellas.Need I say more?
Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Sorry that this is so late. *This is currently on KU*
There is an HEA & an epilogue- a peek several years into the future. Lately, that's rare. Love that
I want to read Fawn's sister Mac's book (Wesley, Levi's best friend is the H).

I am a huge fan of Aurora Rose Reynolds. I know her alphas and insta-love (the BOOM) stories aren't for everyone, but I typically love them and I don't even read her blurbs anymore. If it has her name on it, I just add it to my TBR. I almost just take it for granted that I will love her books, but I haven't been disappointed yet. Running Into Love was no exception, and I thought it was super cute and I just had a great time reading it!

After having bad luck with men, Fawn Reed has decided that she will avoid men. But when she runs into Levi Fremont, everything changes. Things don't get off on the right foot for them, and next thing they both know Levi is moving into the apartment across from Fawn. As the two run into each other more and start spending time together though, things quickly change for them and their feelings start to become more than attraction.

I absolutely loved these two. They were so adorable, and their story just made me feel good and enjoy what I was reading. I was invested in them right away, with both characters being likable and easy to relate to. They were sweet and caring and fit together well. Levi was alpha and protective, but not in a jerk kind of way. He really cared about Fawn and he had me swooning the whole way through. Fawn was the type of heroine that is great to read about and makes you want to be friends with her in real life. I just loved them both and the chemistry and connection between them was undeniable and special.

Overall, this book was really great and one of my favorites from ARR to date. I think contemporary readers looking for a great all around romance will really enjoy this one. It was sweet and sexy, and a really cute story. Definitely one I recommend, and I can't wait to read more in this series! There were so many characters here that I loved, and I am really excited to get more of them!

Running Into Love is sweet and sexy. It's lighthearted and funny and the banter between Levi and Fawn is witty and adorable.

When a crazy woman literally runs into Levi as she's jogging, because she's jogging with her eyes closed (what?!) Levi doesn't know what hits him. He's got this wild haired blonde crazy woman who's on his mind. When he discovers she's his new across the hall neighbor, though, he is even more intrigued by the crazy, adorable woman. Levi is a hot detective who's been burned by an ex, so he's not exactly looking for a relationship. Fawn, though, has been burned by numerous men, and has decided to take a break from them. But she didn't expect to literally run into a hot detective who seems to suddenly be in her space all the time. From bonding with her huge Irish Wolfhound puppy, Muffin, to rescuing her and her sisters after an unfortunate night out ended in them being brought to the police station, the man won't leave her alone to ruminate on the state of her disastrous love life. She's so damn oblivious to the fact that Levi was crazy, head over heels over her, that I wanted to smack her more than once. But, she's sweet and kind and funny, so I gave her a huge pass. And Levi, whew! that man is one hot cop! And sexy and patient, oh so patient, with ditzy Fawn that I couldn't help but fall in love with him just as she did.

But, it's not just Levi, Fawn and Muffin who I fell in love with. Both Fawn and Levi's families are a hoot. From their crazy moms who turned out to be old friends, to their awesome, protective dads, Fawn's funny sisters, and Levi's brothers, the whole cast of Running Into Love is lovable, funny and interesting. Now I'm wondering, hoping, that both Levi's brother and Levi's partner will both get their own stories, along with both of Fawn's sisters. Maybe even Fawn's sister and Levi's partner together...Hmmm...hint hint.

If you like your romances heavy on the sweet and adorable and just as heavy on the sexy, take a chance on Running Into Love, you won't regret it!

Aurora Never writes a bad book !
Loved this book from page 1 !
Not disappointed at all 😀

"You stole my heart and my breath the day you ran into me," I say simply, and she pulls back, wiping away the tears on her cheeks.
"Who would have thought running with your eyes closed would lead to love?" she asks, and I grin at her, then look over at Muffin.
I have always been a fan of ARR. She delivers a story that gives a near perfect balance of feels, laughter, and happily ever after. I always love reading about her alpha men, sassy ladies, and adorable kiddos! This book was no exception, although a bit in a different direction than I'm used to.

Fawn is awesome. She's sort of accident prone, but is smart, hilarious, and oh so fun. I NEED a friend like her! She loves her family, but sometimes they sort of help out with her proclivity to shenanigans ;) When she has an unlikely encounter with the police (trust me, I can't tell you ... you need to read it), she runs into her neighbor Levi, who is a part of the force. Wanting nothing to do with him (because he's of course HOT), she ends up accepting a ride home.

These two seem to have not one thing in common, but each time they're together it's almost like magic. There is not only chemistry between them, but there's also just ... heart. They both have so much inside them that most people can't see, and when they're together they get to tap into that hidden beauty.

Their road to one another isn't easy, especially with some of their ornery family members involved, but they do find it. And when they do ... *swoons.* The books I've been reading lately have truly made my heart skip a beat -- each for different reasons -- and this one is no exception. Another great story of love <3

Fawn never did anything by half measures unless you count running in the park with your eyes closed. Of course that sounds dangerous but it was there she me Levi. The man who would change her life forever. Awkwardness and feeling less than self confident she questions everything and worries she is not enough. This book shows readers everyone is more than enough and we should always remember that. Absolutely loved it!

4.5 Muffin Stars

OMG... This book was so fun and funny. Fawn Reed is a soon-to-be 27 year old 5th grade teacher living in New York city. Detective Levi Fremont is a 30 year old Homicide Detective, with the NYPD. While jogging one morning, he is mowed down physically, by Fawn who was also running... but with her eyes closed.

The moment he looks into her eyes, Levi is taken with this clearly nutty woman who argues with him about why he didn't try to avoid her since he could see her eyes were closed. Though Fawn finds him stunningly attractive, she's learned her lesson with hot guys. She knows they are not right for her... or so she thinks. She's determined to live the res of her life as the proverbial cat lady, but with her large wolfhound, Muffin.

This thought process doesn't work out in her favor when it turns out the hot detective is her new neighbor, who will take every opportunity to get to know her better, even when she does everything in her power to avoid him. It doesn't help that her man hating 10-month old rescue puppy seems to have fallen in love with Noah and does everything in her power to bring the two together. From going to his apartment, planting herself on his couch and not moving, to pulling Fawn towards Levi during a run. All these antics by the dog resulting in hilarity.

Levi doesn't seem to mind. He will take every chance that fate and Muffin put in his path to prove to Fawn that she's the one for him. Even stepping up for Fawn when one of her students ends up in a dangerous situation.

I loved every moment of this book. Thought it was hilarious in some places. But mostly it was just really sweet. So why not a full 5 stars? Mostly because I thought it was too short... I know, strange right. I just felt a few more things could have been flushed out, like Fawn's relationship with Tamara or what was going on with Levi and his work. The first chapter is told from Levi's POV, but then you don't get it again until maybe chapter 8. There are a few more after that, but not many and mostly only his POV of Fawn. I just wanted more and that's a good thing, but that's me reason.

Can't wait to read more. I'm looking forward to more about the Reed sisters. I'm hoping Libby ends up with Levi's bother Lucas and his daughter Madeline, and Mac with Levi's partner, Wesley, story is told. I hope the books come quickly. I can't wait.

I laughed, I sighed and I devoured the entire book. This in my opinion is not the best book of hers I've read. I did enjoy reading and I felt the characters were three dimensional and at least relatable. So in that respect this book was good!

This is the first title I have read by this author, and I am not sure what I thought.

There were parts of it that I liked and there were times that I liked Fawn and Levi. Times that I thought they were interesting...but there were times where I was not sure if I believed them.

The writing of the book was not really something I engaged with either...it seemed like it was intended to be really dramatic, even in places where the drama wasn't necessary...and, the meet-cute wasn't really something I believed in.

I guess I wanted to like this a lot more than I did.

I will probably try another title by this author, as I really do want to see if there is something about the author that I missed because I didn't connect with this title.

This is the first book I’ve read from this author and she did NOT disappoint. You fall so in love with these two characters. I definitely can’t wait to see where the rest of this series goes!!

Such a well written and amazing read. Could not put it down. The author captures you from page one and leaves you mesmerized. Would recommend this to any romance fan.

What a fabulous read from Aurora Rose Renolds! An elementary school teacher meets a NYPD detective and heart are about to flutter!!

This book captured my interest right from the start. It had so many hilarious, heartwarming, and loving moments, that you can't help but swoon.

Fawn, is pretty much me made into a book character. She is quirky and fun, and has terrible luck at dating. When she meets Levi, her whole world is rocked. She feels a connection that is quite simply unexplainable.

Levi has not had an easy love life in the past, as evidenced through info from his family. When you add in the fact that he is a detective and has a demanding job, making a relationship work is virtually impossible. When he quite literally runs into Fawn, his whole life changes. He does the one thing he said he would never do again... want to start a relationship. He fell for her, fast and hard, and will stop at nothing, until he has what he wants, her!

Fawn and Levi had the best chemistry. They were highly entertaining Throw in their crazy and complicated family life, and you have a couple that will steal your heart. They are definitely swoon worthy.

Last but certainly not least, I fell in love with Muffin. She might not be the best trained dog, but she is certainly the cutest!!

5/5 Stars!
