I absolutely loved returning to Dogwood Lane in Tangle, and I loved Trevor and Haley even more than Dane and Neely.

The small-town feel of Dogwood Lane makes me want to go there myself, and the cast of characters is so enjoyable.
I also liked getting to know the Kellys. A book for Jake perhaps?

What I loved the best was the banter between Trevor and Haley. It was fun and witty, a bit snarky at times...so basically, perfection.

All I can say is Penn's book better be next. I am DYING for it. Please, please, please!

Adriana does it again.

The wit, I love the wit.

Haley is witty, sassy, and smart.

Trevor is a Prince who doesn’t believe in happily ever after.

The sexual tension erupts in the opening scene and is present throughout the story.
The characters have depth and are relatable.

This is an easy read that had me up all night.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Honestly, I couldn’t put this book down.
Since I read Tangle before Tumble, I’m off to read Tumble as I anxiously wait for the next installment in this series.

5 Star review of Tangle (Dogwood Lane #2) by Adriana Locke
Tangle was well written and full of love, romance, laughter and the opportunity for Hayley Raynor and Trevor Kelly to fall in love. I really liked Hayley and Trevor, both separately and together.
There was not a thing that I didn’t love about this book. From the first page to the last I was absolutely captivated by the story that Adriana Locke wove and read this in almost one go. I love small town romances and when you throw characters like Trevor and Hayley, it really is a winning combination.
I loved how swoon worthy Trevor was, he just ticked all the boxes for me. Hayley is a hopeless romantic, funny, smart and would be a great woman to call friend. Does she dare take a chance on a fling with Trevor who does not believe in love or will she get a broken heart?
There was so much humour and seriously hot shenanigans in this book that you cannot help but fan yourself. I love Dogwood Lane and Adriana Locke really brings it to life for me. I for one cannot wait to read more in this series.
I received a copy from the publisher through Netgalley.

As usual Miss Locke gives us a an amazing story with wonderful characters! this story is going to make you swoon and smile all the way to the end!

Tangle is the second book in Adriana Locke's Dogwood Lane series. This story follows Haley, a 20 something trying to figure out what she wants to do in life, and Trevor, a construction exec in town to help finish his father's house. The two become friends and agree that Haley won't fall in love and Trevor won't do anything to make her fall.

I absolutely adored this book. Haley and Trevor are the perfect book couple. Haley is super relatable and Trevor makes you swoon and want to smack him upside the head at the same time. The book is written in dual first person perspective which is my favorite.

Tumble, the first book in the series, was well written but I had some issues with the hero and his past actions that made it somewhat difficult for me. Tangle is just as well written but without any of those other issues. I can't wait for the rest of this series!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Hayley was first introduced to us in the first book in the Dogwood Lane series, Tumble, and I just knew her story was going to be a winner! Here's this hopeless romantic who falls in love at the drop of a hat. She's sweet and kind and everyone can't help but love her. Who knew she would also turn out to be feisty and sassy and not above being mean, especially if someone tries to get between her and her beloved doughnut?

Trevor Kelly is the quintessential no strings, bad boy that all the ladies can't help but fall for. Too bad he doesn't believe in love, AT ALL. Why shackle yourself to one woman for the rest of your life when you can keep things fresh and interesting with a different lady all the time?

The attraction between Trevor and Hayley was instant. The chemistry is off the charts. The sexual tension? Holy Moley… I was dying for them to just give in to their lust and get it on!! But at the same time I worried so hard for Hayley's heart because she was really no match for Trevor. He pursued her relentlessly, even knowing exactly how she felt and with a damn contract written on a napkin, no less!

Adriana takes us on a rollercoaster of emotions in this installment of the Dogwood Lane series. The whole gang is around again in this book, and you can't help but fall in love with all of them all over again. And man, that Penn Etling… I am dying for his book!!

I gotta admit, I loved this book even more than the first! No offense to Dane and Neely, but I just connected so completely with Trevor and Hayley, I was rooting for them something fierce! Be prepared to laugh, and swoon and want to choke someone, and yes, you might even cry at the end! Happy tears, I promise!

This is a perfect summer, fun read. It's got the lure of small town charm, romance, passion, some angst, an awesome cast of characters, and old Blue still laying in the middle of the road!

Great job, Adriana! I'm so excited for the next book!

Many thanks to Netgalley for an advanced review copy of this book in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Book 2 of the Dogwood Lane series is just as great as Dane and Neely's story!

Haley and Trevor are absolutely sweet and sexy together! From the moment they meet the sparks and energy between the two are just great. Adriana Locke writes these two characters in an awesome way giving their insights into everything and it is simply sweet and sexy. You cannot read this book and not picture the smiles and smirks these two are definitely giving one another. I love a book that you can feel that chemistry between the characters and this book did thta and much more.

While Haley is trying to stay strong and not date for six months- yeah it's a bet she made with her cousin, Dane- of course she meets Mr. Irrestitable! Trying to look and not touch might be easier when Trevor admits to being the exact type of man she is currently try to steer clear of- the draw you in, love and leave them type. Trevor admits he doesn't do love and never will. Haley wants love and no longer satisfied with being toyed with by the likes of men like Trevor.

It is very difficult for these two to stick to their guns when - again Locke does an amazing job- these two are fireworks and chemistry.

I just loved this story and the folks of Dogwood Lane. The connection of all the townspeople is another draw to the story. this is a great series and I look forward to more from this gang.

I adored this so much. Trevor and Haley are so adorable and hilarious, thought Trevor was going to break my heart at one point let alone Haley’s! Well written, tons of chemistry, adorable and relatable characters. Such a joyful happy read, I read it in one day as I needed to know how it ended. This is my first book by Adriana but I’m off to buy her first to this series now. (This was 2nd in a series but can be read as standalone as there was no affect at all having not read the first.)
Fabulous entertaining and happy read. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

What happen when a die-hard romantic woman is on a dating/relationship hiatus and meet a hot single anti-relationship doesn't believe in love man? Well you agree to be just friends, sign a contract on a napkin saying I will not fall in love with you, and you will not touch me, woo me or do anything to make me want to love you.

Hailey is the romantic woman you jumps into relationships with not so great guys and then falls in love with them or so she thinks. She hates being alone so she fills are time with guys and gets attched. Dane her cousin bet her in Tumble (Dogwood Lane Book 1) that she couldn't do dateless for 6 months or he gets to pick her next 3 dates. She is 2 months into her no dating when Trevor enters the picture.

Trevor is a single hot guy who is not into relationships or dating, he prefer to have zero strings attached to his friends with benefits. He always seems to find the crazy clingy types or does he let them on? He is in Dogwood Lane to monitor the building of his father and new stepmother new home. His plan it to spend max of two weeks making sure everything is done to his stepmother's specifications then return home to Nashville.

His first morning in town, he meets the most interesting woman, she is up on her stool leaning over the counter in the cafe with her yoga clad rear on display. It all starts with a carmel glazed pecan covered donut. This starts the banter between them, they run into each other a few times that day and they are both fighting this attraction that neither are looking for.

This book captivated me from the very first chapter. I absolutely loved all the characters and the story line just flowed. I fell in love with this town and the people in it in the first book in this series. This book made me fall in love with all of that even more. Adriana Locke honestly just has a way with words. I felt so much a part of this book and these people when I was reading it. Trevor and Haley were made for each other. The chemistry between them was hot and they just connected as a couple. With the easy flowing dialogue between them and the cute nick names they had for each other. You throw in Trevor's family (I am really hoping Jake gets his own book!) and all of Haley's friends and you have yourself an award winning book. I am counting the days until the next book comes out in this series. I am really hoping it is sooner rather then later. Thanks Net Galley. I voluntarily reviewed this book in exchange for an honest review.

You really need to read the series!

Haley Raynor is so done with today and it has hardly started when the luscious doughnut that she wants has already sold to a stranger art the café. Haley thinks the stranger is the hottest guy she has seen but since her cousin Dane bet her that she wouldn’t date for six months after the failure of her last relationship and it was broken when she met Trevor Kelly. Trevor is in town to oversee the final details for his dad’s retirement home for him and his new wife. Trevor was also using the time to get away from the last woman he dated after the breakup because she was still contacting him.

I totally loved Tangle and the first book in the series, Tumble, because Tangle really shows small towns and how much everybody is friendly and knows everybody else. The next book should be Penn’s story which is a good time guy that I’m hoping falls hard.

Tangle by Adriana Locke is a great book to read so enjoy!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Oh my what a ride! I wanted to hate Trevor but in the end you just love him. Haley has not had the best of luck in the dating field. Then she has instant chemistry with Trevor. However Trevor is not the relationship type. She goes along for the ride in hope of not getting hurt. This book as temptation, weakness, hard truths, and love. Get ready to go for a ride with a girl who stands up of herself.

Tangle brings a romance that is a delight to read. I loved every minute of this book and I think the author did a great job with these characters!

Here is the story of Haley, a character who believes in love and who after having had countless amorous delusions for falling in love with the wrong guys, wants to take time out in love, what she did not expect was to come across Trevor, her complete opposite and who does not believe in love. Two people totally opposite, but they complement each other perfectly!

I loved Haley, she's one of those heroines that I love: fun, smart, romantic, intelligent and who always sees life in a positive way. I think she grew up a lot during the book and I loved seeing her putting herself first. Trevor is a good guy, smart, and some attitude during the book irritated me a little but in the end these two characters gave me great moments and several laughs.

Their journey took place over a short period of days, and that would usually bother me a little, but it did not happen here. I think the author dealt with their relationship so well that I honestly forgot that they met the other day.

Tangle is one of those books that I finished in one sitting and didn't even see the time pass. I laughed, had fun, and fell in love with these characters.

I loved Tevor and Haley!! It doesn't matter what kind of story Adriana writes I'm reading it. Her stories are swoon worthy, happy, sexy, emotional depending on the story.

4.5 No room for Jesus Stars

I'm so damn smitten with this small town romance. Pack me up and help me find Dogwood Lane in Tennessee. We met Haley Raynor in Tumble. I knew I'd like her but, I didn't know I'd develop a full-on girl crush. She's smart, fun and feisty as hell. She is on a six-month dating hiatus when Trevor Kelly blows into town. The girl didn't stand a chance. These two have the hilarious banter and quick wit that I love. Looking forward to more from this series. Hint. Hint. Cough. Cough. PENN 😉

Another winner for Adriana Locke. Trevor and Hayley were adorable together. I always enjoy when the H and h forge a good friendship first. I loved how tangled up Trevor got in his feelings for Hayley. I actually teared up because he was so tortured. He really didn't get it. And Hayley ended up so strong in her conviction. All around fantastic read!

Yet another 5 star read from Adriana Locke. She has created a small town like Dogwood Lane and made it the place you will definitely want to visit, and maybe never leave. With the second in the series, we continue with Haley’s story. So far she’s been unlucky in love and vows not to get her heart broken. Until she meets Trevor Kelly. Trevor is visiting from nearby Nashville and the chemistry between the two is immediate and intense. Locke has created a perfect mixture of comedy and sweetness, with a touch of angst, to give this story just the right amount of intensity to keep readers Tangled.

Tangle is a small town romance, and who doesn't love a small town romance? This is Trevor and Haley's story and book two of the Dogwood Lane series. Honestly, I hope this series never ends! Adriana engages the reader with her wit, humor, and wonderful characters. You won't be able to put it down.

If you haven't read one of Adriana's book, I highly suggest you do. You won't be disappointed.

Loved it, Adriana Locke never disappoints her readers. Her books are a must read. Trevor only wants to be friends and not be in a relationship but Haley breaks that by falling in love.

Tangle by Adriana Locke

I was so excited to be back in Dogwood Lane! I love this small town and all the characters who make it what it is.
I love Haley's determination in everything she sets out to do. She is very strong willed but has a witty and funny side to her which you are drawn to. Trevor was the perfect match for her! A straight up guy who knew what he wanted and wasn't shy about it. In saying that Haley was also the same! They complemented each other so well they both didn't see it coming - Love that is.
A beautiful sweet story that had me captivated from start to finish. I hope you love it as much as I did!
