This was my first book from Lori Foster, and I'll be sure to add her to my go-to list! I loved The Somerset Girls!

Lori Foster has created a heartfelt story about sisters who run a farm together and always seem to have each other’s best interests in mind. Autumn and Ember are hired by Tash to create and environment for his daughter to feel comfortable and wanted. Autumn and Tash quickly realize that they are falling for each other . Ember finds herself falling for Mike who works on their farm.
This story is a light hearted story of love and family . I also enjoy the animals in the story, they have a way of adding appeal . Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for an Arc for my honest opinion.

This was just the light, chick lit that I needed to read right now. The storyline and characters were well-developed and as an animal lover, I loved the inclusion of an animal rescue to the storyline!

Autumn and Ember Somerset run a animal rescue on the farm they inherited from their grandparents. Autumn and Ember also have run a business where Autumn is the designer for the business, and Ember handles the construction side of the business. Autumn and Ember have issues that still influence their lives with Ember putting up a front as the party girl, and Autumn retreating inward. When Autumn was in high school, she had a major crush on Tash Ducker. Tash has returned to town with his daughter, Sadie. Tash hires Autumn make over Sadie's room and to design a play set in the backyard. Autumn finds herself still attracted to Tash. Tash finds himself drawn to Autumn physically and emotionally. As Tash and Autumn spend time together, the more their feelings grow for each other. Can Tash convince Autumn that she is the one for him? Will Autumn's insecurities get in the way of her possible future with Tash? Ember has been attracted to Mike Brewer, their farmhand, since he showed up on their farm looking for employment. Mike is also attracted to Ember and believes she is only interested in a fling. Mike and Ember dance around each other and their feelings. Will Mike and Ember give into their attraction? Will Mike and Ember confess to each other that they want more than a fling? Will Ember confess her secret to Mike? Will Mike open up to Ember about his past? I LOVE Lori Foster, and she is a MUST read author for this reader. The Somerset Girls is a fantastic book with great characters. The Somerset Girls has laughs, tears, witty banter, outrageous parents, steamy chemistry, a precocious little girl, and happily ever afters. I would HIGHLY recommend getting The Somerset Girls by Lori Foster. I received an ARC of this book, and I am leaving my honest review.

I enjoyed reading the Somerset Girls so much! I couldn't put my kindle down! Lori Foster always writes such amazing stories! Autumn and Ember touched my heart. I enjoyed their journey. I enjoyed the storyline as well! Such an Amazing Book!

Lori Foster has done it again. I expected this book to be great...but it was so much more! Two sisters who love and care for each other so much, two men who are both so caring, giving and affectionate, a set of quirky parents who are still in love and love their daughters without question, a couple of exes who you just want to go after, and the strange, gossipy friend who one minute you want to throttle, and the next you realize she is a good person underneath it all. Add to all this sweet little Sadie who just melts your heart and tugs at your heartstrings. This is a book you don't want to miss.

Sisters Autumn and Ember Somerset are doing a wonderful job of continuing to run an animal-rescue farm their grandparents started. They will take in any animal, no matter to cost or expected difficulty. The sisters live in their grandparents home, redesigned and turned into a duplex. Their parents live on the property and the girls show loving attention to their needs. Autumn is a designer and Ember is a builder, and they love working with and protecting the animals and they have a full-time to handle things when they are doing other work.

When Tash Ducker asks the sisters to work on his house in order to provide things that will make his daughter feel happy and secure after the death of her mother, Autumn begins consulting him on the designs that will work for the both of them. Meanwhile, animals that need rescuing and care are also provided for by Autumn and Ember. When the design plans are complete, Ember will step in and begin the building phase for Tash and his daughter.

Tash is no stranger to either sister. As a matter of fact, he is the object of her teenage crush. Not only do Tash and Autumn soon realize that business and pleasure will soon mix, Ember is quickly on her own road to romance.

The Somerset Girls is a truly heartwarming story on several levels. Not only is the bond between sisters truly refreshing, the tender loving care they show their parents is remarkable. Also, Tash's daughter Sadie is a delight, and I loved her role in this book. Quite naturally, the romance that bloomed between Tash and Amber was wonderful. Then there was the secondary love story when it came to Ember that was enjoyable. Last, but not least, the animals. I loved each and every rescue as the animals showed up in the story. Lori Foster has hit another one out of the park. I can't wait to read her next book.

Many thanks to Harlequin and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

Autumn and Ember run an animal rescue farm. They bring in animals that have been abused. Care for them, and hopefully find them forever homes.
At first Ember made me a little upset at how she spoke to her sister Autumn. Soon though, once I heard her story and got to know her better, I liked her a lot. She wasn't trying to be mean, in fact she was trying to be helpful. Mike, the hot guy who had been working on the farm, teased her constantly and was a thorn in her side and starred in her dreams, pointed out that maybe Ember needed to rephrase some of her comments. Soon those two grew close and had a heart to heart talk and cleared some misunderstandings up. I loved Mike , even though he could be a bit judgy, until he too learned a few things. To say their love story was great and charming and funny and hot would be an understatement.
Autumn was a gorgeous , full figured woman..who had no clue she was...the gorgeous part anyway. Tash was the guy she had crushed on in high school. Him being 2 years older and her being shy was an obstacle back then . He came back to town years later with an adorable 7 yr old daughter Sophie. Feelings quickly form between Tash and Autumn and Sophie. There are things in their pasts you will learn about that are heartbreaking. Issues they all need to deal with in their own way and with the help of each other. Tash and Autumn are wonderful together but at one point Tash totally confuses me. You'll know what I mean when you get there. I thought at one point, "What? But you said? Oh my gosh man tell her what you want!" Needless to say he did so they did and... ..yeah. SO along with all the amazing humans in this story...including Tracy and Flynn, Autumn and Embers parents, we get to meet the amazing Povlov who has a way with scared animals. Olivia and her sister Matilda, and Tracy. You will meet them all, you will fall for them all and want to take them home. There are a few more but there should be a bit more mystery when you are reading this yourself. Agreed?
I have tried not to give too much away other than the fact that this was a great story with wonderful characters.
I received an Advanced Readers Copy for an honest review.
5/5 hoofs/paws!

Set in Kentucky in the middle of summer, there is more heating up then just the weather. Autumn and Ember are two sisters who live on their animal rescue farm. They both have complicated pasts and with the unconditional love of a sister and some not so gentle prodding they are looking to move ahead with their lives. I adored the sister bond in this book. They were there for each other and they pushed each other when they needed some pushing, and the men in their lives, Tash and Mike were such strong, likeable characters. These men and their relationships with Autumn and Ember provided relationships that could be rooted for. My favorite character in the book though, belonged to seven year old, Sadie. She is the conduit to everything in the book. With her childlike innocence that could allow her to simply blurt out truths and her adoring, unconditional love, it made her so endearing. Such an enjoyable start to the summer with The Somerset Girls.

Have you ever read a book that transported you into its world?
The Sommerset Girls was that book for me. I immediately fell in love with these characters. They had me laughing and crying and feeling as if I was right there with them.
Ms. Foster has created a wonderfully crafted story that will capture your attention and leave you hoping it will never end.
I would highly recommend this amazing story.
Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to express my honest opinion of this story.

An amazing book. Ms. Foster does an amazing job of sharing the dynamics between the sisters, Autumn and Ember, as well as the dynamics with their parents. I love that the book is really about the lives and loves of both sisters . One of my favorites this year!

This was my first book by this author, It was pretty enjoyable. I would give this book a 4 star rating! It was a pretty Quick and easy read!

Lori Foster never fails to give you a story full of amazing characters who pull you in from the start. I love the spunk and personalities of the sisters and their ability to know when the other needs them. This story have five very amazing characters and a farm full of rescue animals. Great story about finding the one you want to spend your life with. Highly recommend adding this book to your TBR list.

The Somerset Girls is a fun read. The first half of the book was slow to start, but around the 60% mark the book really picked up. I felt that the story was slow to start and I struggled reading it, I almost gave up and did not finish the book but I am glad I hung in there. Once the characters had some personal growth in the book really took off. I could not put it down. This is a fast and fun summer read. It is a romance, but not too over the top.

I loved this story! Love the bond Autumn and Ember have and how much they want to take care of all the abandoned animals. When Autumn's old crush comes back to town with his daughter, I just smiled at her antics! I loved the slow way that both girls come to find love, not sudden, just a slow progression for each of them. This would be a great sit on the beach read, or curl up on the couch on a rainy day read. I wish it was a little longer, or maybe there's room for a sequel?? :)

This review is based on an ARC from NetGalley, courtesy of the publisher/author. All opinions are my own.

Can you imagine running a farm animal rescue?

Me either... but that's what Autumn and Ember do when their grandparents leave them one. They take on the challenge of doing just that - running the farm animal rescue, which takes in all animals of all sizes! The sisters are just as different as the animals they are working together to care for and each finds themselves working through their issues.

This quick, light, fun read kept me smiling and laughing. Highly recommended for anyone looking to bust out of a reading slump or for someone who loves animals!

Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to read this and give my honest opinion!

Lori always delivers amazing stories. The way she weaves issues that everyone deals with at one time or another into the story is masterful.

3.5*

The Somerset Girls is a light, easy, read- perfect for a lazy weekend afternoon. Although my sister and I no longer have a relationship, it’s nice to read about ones like Autumn and Ember- opposites who may not agree on everything but are always there for each other, no matter what. I liked the way they bantered, but still had the other’s back when needed- especially Ember. She didn’t hold back when it came to wanting Autumn to step out of her comfort zone, but she was also the first one there to defend and “protect” her when needed.

I enjoyed the the way Ms. Foster was able to weave Autumn and Ember’s stories together. Considering they work and live together it would have been hard to have one’s story without the other- it would have felt like something was missing! They may have been complete opposites- Autumn the quiet, unassuming bookworm, and Ember, the vivacious, outgoing, “party girl”, but deep down they both were dealing with some very personal issues. I appreciated how Ms. Foster handled those issues- not allowing the story to be weighed down by them, but also not glossing over them.

The romances were sweet- well Autumn and Tash’s was, I’d say Ember and Mike’s was more on the spicy side! Which actually fit for these sister’s personalities. I loved that Tash put his daughter as a priority, wanting to make sure she felt safe and loved after her world was turned upside down. Sadie was such a sweetheart, I just wanted to hug her!
This was a definite feel-good story, all around.

Loved this heartwarming, sweetly thrilling journey filled with engaging charters, witty dialog, emotionally deep sisterhood and exciting side of romance. Really loved this highly entertaining and very fun journey.

Great story! This is a farm I would live on in a heartbeat! Autumn and Tash were great together and had mutual love for the animals and his daughter. Ember and Mike were also a great pair, their banter was fun. Not quite women's fiction, which I actually love!
