Due to political attacks by KA Tucker on FB, I will NEVER read one of her books again. I will also NEVER promoter her on my blog as long as she is an author!!

This is the second book I’ve read by K.A. Tucker and I LOVE her writing. However, while I enjoyed “Say You Still Love Me”, I never felt super invested in Piper and Kyle’s story. For me, the dual timelines felt uneven — I craved more romance in the Now chapters and, probably because of that, I was much more drawn to how they fell in love at camp. Though this story didn’t quite work for me (note that my expectations were extremely high after “The Simple Wild”) I would still recommend this book to readers craving a second-chance romance & fans of K.A. Tucker’s other work.

I love K.A Tucker, if you haven't read any of her work, you need to! This book was amazing. I felt it was different than her other books, but it was still beautiful! Its a must read!

Perfectly predictable...in a good way. I mean most romances are pretty predictable but this one was in all the right ways. I mean, I did see the twist coming quite early, and nothing that was revealed was a shock to me at all. But that didn’t take away from the enjoyment of story.

The book takes place “Now” and “Then” instead of in flashbacks, which was interesting because they were both present tense. And I very much enjoyed the “Then” portions more. They made me smile and feel nostalgic for those first love moments. And goodness, this had all the best parts of camp wrapped up in it. But the “Now” portion was important.

Just think it wrapped up with that little pristine bow on top a bit too much for my taste. Even for a romance.

Kyle and Piper met as summer camp counselors, but the boy from the wrong side of the tracks wasn't in the plans. When he shows up working in her building 13 years later the sparks are definitely still there, but so are the hurdles.
This story was great! It flowed easily from past to present and built up the passion of Kyle and Piper together. I loved the descriptions of their feelings for each other. I could have done without the extra storyline of the camp accident, but it made it more convenient for her father to separate them.
Kyle and Piper had me rooting for them because I felt they loved what was inside each other and fought for it.
Over all this is a great read for romance fans and those looking for a contemporary love story and don't mind some steam.

I was given this ebook free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first ever K.A. Tucker book and I loved it so much. 𝗦𝗮𝘆 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗠𝗲 is not your typical second chance love story. It's moving and emotional.

This story takes you from summer camp when the characters are teenagers, to the present as adults. It alternates between the two timelines which adds to the mystery of what happened with them and their friends.

I devoured it and I hope (and think) you will too!⁣

K.A. Tucker is one of those authors that I will read no matter what. I don't need to read the back, or know a thing about the book. I am never let down by her books. Until It Fades did not disappoint.
From the moment you open this book (until you sadly put it down because it ended too quickly!) you fall into a world of amazing characters and settings. It's a place you want to live and people you want to know.
Catherine is a young single mother working to support her family. Brett is an amazing hockey player with a great future a head of him. One night their lives unexpectedly collided. He owes her his life, if he could just figure out who she was. She wants nothing to do with the spot light, but a force pulls them together that neither can ignore. But how long can a famous hockey player love a diner waitress. How long will it last Until It Fades?
I absolutely loved this book. As always KA Tucker doesn't disappoint.

K A Tucker is one of my absolute favorite authors ever! And I have to say I am so excited about her recent success. This was a fun charming dual timeline story that hit me in the heart and made me smile. Loved the Camp Nostalgia perhaps a little more than the present day story. But all in all this was another winner from this fabulous author.

This is another favorite of mine by K. A. Tucker. I adored the romance and the setting in this story. I really enjoyed seeing the love interests reconnecting and the relationship develop over time. This is a perfect new adult, contemporary romance to pick up during the summer.

This was a cute book and I was excited to finally read something by KA Tucker, but I felt like this was pretty forgettable. I liked the transition between past and present so we could see how the couples relationship started, but after a while, I got tired of it and wished the past segments had only taken place at the beginning of the book. The ending felt very cliched and I was a little disappointed, and while I enjoyed the story while I was reading it, I can honestly say this is one of those books that I won’t remember in a short while.

I enjoyed this one but not as much as the simple Wild.

This one was just OK for me. I felt like you had to suspend reality a bit for the ending. That being said it is worth picking up. Just don't think you are getting another Simple Wild with this book.

I did like the flash back aspect of this book. The different timelines were nice and broke up the book a bit.

2.5 STARS

I am a huge fan of Tucker, and it breaks my heart to rate any book of hers so low. If this would have been most other authors, I would have tossed in the towel and DNFed it. The entire storyline felt cliche and underwhelming. I found Piper unlikable and immature. Sadly, she didn't develop throughout the book, and I still felt the same way about her at the end. The past/present chapters didn't flow well for my tastes, and I found myself never fully invested in either time frame.

I still adore Tucker and won't hesitate to read her next work. It happens when you read 20+ books from an author; you eventually have one you don't enjoy.

K. A. Tucker is one of my favorite authors. I've fallen in love with nearly everything I've read from her. [Side note here, The Simple Wild is absolutely my favorite book by her. I cannot recommend it enough.] However, Say You Still Love Me just barely misses the mark.

There's something missing for me, but I can't put my finger on it. I think I didn't quiet connect with Piper and Kyle as characters. Perhaps if we would have spent a bit more time with them reconnecting as adults, I might have been more invested in their story.

As always, the writing was enjoyable. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the book. It just doesn't hit that sweet spot that I'm used to with books from K. A. Tucker.

This was my second K.A. Tucker book and I'm a fan! She writes books with a lot of heart. Say You Still Love Me was a such a nostalgic read, as dual timelines are explored: the past with finding a first love at a sleep away camp, and the present where the past comes back in an unexpected way. I loved how the camp sections were written. I could almost smell the musty cabins, feel the chill of night air during swims after dark and the thrill of falling in love for the first time, So well done! I was not quite as taken with the present day story line but, the way the two came together really did make for a a solid, well-rounded book.

I love KA Tucker! I can't get enough of her words and this one is no different.
This book is a perfect second chance/young love story with a twist. There always seems to be a touch of surprise in all of her novels.
Can't wait for the next one!

In the last year or so, I've become such a die hard fan of K.A. Tucker and her amazing books. K.A. Tucker knows how to write an engaging, emotional, steamy romance. The characters are so well written, the plot was fun, and the pacing was perfectly entertaining.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an advance copy of this title in exchange for an honest review.

This is the first K.A. Tucker book I've read, I really like her writing style and I loved the main character Piper but I had a little problem with the dual time line. I really enjoyed the timeline at summer camp when Piper is a teen, yeah it reads a little YA/New Adult-ish but I really don't think there is anything wrong with that. The romance between the two is much more believable in the past time than in the present timeline. Overall, I think this is a fairly strong book and maybe I'm just being a little nit-picky.

Second chance romance, oh my! I love a good reunited couple romance and this one is a solid one! K.A. Tucker is a fairly new author for me but, man, she delivers! I really loved the story - including the strength of the main character. There is a summer camp component that is so well done. This one made me nostalgic! Great read!
