Autumn and her sister Ember, run an animal sanctuary. Autumn is also an interior decorator and Ember is a builder. They have been burned by men. After being left at the altar, Autumn swears off men until she runs into Tash. Tash is a single father with a seven year old little girl. He has moved back to town and gets Autumn to redecorate his daughter, Sadie’s room. Ember builds a giant play yard in the shape of a pirate ship in order to get Sadie acclimated to her new home. Tash is attracted to Autumn but decides to take it slow after her comment about ice cream being better than a man. Autumn finally realizes Tash is worth giving her ice cream up for.
Such a sweet, romantic story. A new series by Ms. Foster and it will be a hit. A little girl who has seen more than she should in her little life, a dad trying to get his girl to trust him, and a woman who loves them both. Animals, a sister, and an ex.

What a wonderful, touching and heartfelt story. Oh my! The Somerset Girls had everything my heart wanted to read. Two amazing love stories. One adorable little girl that just brought everyone together. And a farm full of some really cute animals with some pretty amazing personalities. Seriously a very feel good story that needs to be read. There is a tissue warning but in a good way. Add in some hot chemistry between both couples and a few sexy scenes that is just sigh worthy and this story is the perfect remedy for what ails you. I'm still flying high after finishing this book.

I truly enjoyed getting to know Autumn and Ember - and while I'm usually a little indifferent to stories that follow two couples, it worked really well here!
I got the sisters and how supportive they were towards each other, and I loved both that and them. The romance was also very well done, and I got enough time with each of the couples, so I didn't feel like one of them was left out.
Foster always manages to write characters that are well fleshed out, and I felt like they were all completely tangible here - even side characters had enough characteristics to be realistic, and there were no flat ones that were just there decorating the background.
If you're looking for a story with strong relationships, well rounded characters, and a beautiful arc, The Somerset Girls is for you!

The Somerset Girls – Autumn and Ember Somerset – is all about the relationship between the sisters, and their lives, with two alpha hunks thrown in for good measure. Where Autumn is quiet and unassuming, believing she is the “plain and uninteresting” sister, Ember is truly “out there”. Let’s say they are wrong about themselves and need to talk to one another to fix those thoughts. Each sister is hiding some big…hurts, even from themselves. The one thing that IS right between these sisters is that their bond is very strong. No matter what, they have each other’s back and will go to the mat for one another; that is their absolute truth.
How they work thru their “personal truths”, each doing some major soul searching and growing, makes for a wonderful story. Add in the “boys” and it was absolutely fascinating to read. Then add their parents – OMG, they are OUT there! – but truly are good people and loving parents. And there’s a little girl who will melt your heart, as she did mine.
To me, The Somerset Girls is more about Autumn and Ember, with wonderful stories about their lives and how they find love when and where they least expect it. I really don’t want to say more as reading and enjoying each of their journeys is what makes this book wonderful. I highly recommend you read it when you have put everything else aside so you can enjoy.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Romance (U.S. & Canada) and HQN for the advance reader copy, The Somerset Girls by favorite romance author, Lori Foster, in exchange for an honest review. I absolutely loved sisters, Autumn and Ember Somerset, and their relationship in this beautiful novel of family and pets, rescue, love, and hope. I could not stop reading about these sisters, their love interests, Mike and Tash, and Sadie, Tash’s young daughter. The added plot of their rescue of abused animals, all with personalities and names resonated with all the feel goods that Lori Foster books give me. The romances of the sisters, their aging parents and their goofy relationships all combine for an awesome read; highly recommended.

I laughed, teared, ohh and ahh while reading The Somerset Girls! I enjoyed all the characters in this awesome book but, little Sadie stoled my heart❤️ From the moment I started the book, I knew I would not want it to end! I was sad to see it end. Thanks, Lori!

This book is what Lori Foster excels at, family, friendships, and new beginnings. I love how we get both sisters POV’s in this book. Family is a big integral part of this book, not only for the sisters but with Tash and his daughter too. The bonds between everyone in this book and how she interweaves it into something so tight it can’t be unwound is amazing.
Autumn is so independent as a character; she doesn’t really rely on anyone but herself. This trait is good and bad, she feels she can’t trust anyone to do as good a job as her, which will run her down eventually. It was so sweet to see her naturally bond with Sadie, and then how patient she was. Autumn is a naturally kind woman but to see it with a child is even more revealing. Autumns bond with her sister also revealed another side to her, she can be kind but give a dose of reality when needed. Seeing that she had insecurities made her more relatable.
Ember on the other hand was to be the free-spirited sister the one to let loose and not have any problems. However, everyone knows what that means, that Ember is the one with the most problems to hide. She has a hard time communicating her feelings for a special someone and he doesn’t seem to get what she wants from him. Her soft side is shown with the animals, and its oh so sweet. I really enjoyed that Ember was the builder in the family, she didn’t mind getting her hands dirty.
I adored Tash and Mike; they were the perfect backup for these two incredibly strong women. They didn’t need rescued, they wanted partners and they found them. Of course, nothing worth having is ever easy, Tash has a daughter, and Mike has a secret past. Whenever either girl has a problem and both men group together to take on the challenge those parts made me smile. I also loved that both big men would melt and do anything for one tiny girl.
I really enjoyed all of this book and would recommend it to anyone who would like some women’s fiction with some slow burn romance added in. I received my copy in lieu of any honest review from HQN, Net Galley, and Lori Foster.

This was great! The story for both women are unique and special. The characters are easy to love. I couldn't stop thinking about it after I put it down and it kept urging me to pick it back up. I absolutely loved it!

*Received arc from author & Netgalley for an honest review* The Somerset Girls is another amazing book by Lori Foster who never disappoints! Autumn & Tash (& his daughter Sadie) and Ember & Mike deserved their HEA (all experienced some difficulties & heartbreaks). Lori also had me with the animal rescue & the adorable dog Pavlov!! This book had all the feels, it was funny, heartbreaking, heartwarming, emotional. Family dynamics are always interesting and this family had its issues like all families do but when it came down to it they loved each other & always were there for each other. I highly recommend this book!!!

Sweet...
Such sweetness, this story is about sisters, family and love. Another fun read by this author.
I really enjoyed it.

I picked up this book because I fell in love with the previous LF book I read, The Sisters of Summer's End. This one however, started off so terribly for me that I was worried it wouldn't redeem itself. Over and over and over (and over and over and over) you read about how each sister's lives seemed to be the way they are because of their mother's impressions of them. Autumn is "big boned" and "dependable" and alone because she's boring. Ember is "flighty" and "unreliable" because she's a"free spirit" like her. I was over it.
The good news, is once you get past the awkward pairings of everyone, they really do belong together (there's a love story here for each sister). By the end, the relationships felt real and I was cheering for each of them.
3 1/2 stars, rounded up to 4. Thank you Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

The Somerset Girls is a delightful novel about the two Somerset sisters, Autumn, a designer, and Ember, a builder. When their grandparents passed away and left the sisters their farm, the two turned the house into a duplex so that they would have separate residences. In their spare time, the Somerset sisters run the animal rescue farm they inherited. Their parents live on a cottage on the property, due to the ill health of their father.
Autumn's ordered world starts to change when her high school crush, Tash Ducker, comes back to town with his adorable daughter, Sadie, in tow. Soon, Autumn is working on designs for some modifications to his home to make it more appealing and suitable for his daughter, who has had a more difficult life than Dash had realized. He is trying to do what he can to make amends and make sure the rest of her childhood is as carefree as possible. After he and Autumn agree on the designs, the plan is for Ember to do the actual modifications.
Soon Autumn and Tash are involved on a romantic level, and Ember is finding romance as well.
This was a charming book with a very sweet love story between Autumn and Tash. It was primary, but there was also a love interest for Ember in ranch employee, Mike. Autumn and Tash were great characters, as were Ember and Mike, but young Sadie completely steals the show! She is delightful. The animals on the rescue farm also added very positively to the story. They were fun! This is a very enjoyable book that should suit fans of women's fiction, as well as those of romance.
I received an ARC from NetGAlley and this is my honest review.

The Somerset girls, Autumn and Ember are sisters who work well together. Whether it be Ember building a house or playground that Autumn has designed, or running their animal rescue farm these girls are strong and independent.
Where they differ is in their relationships with men. Ember is carefree and flirty while secretly pining for the man for whom she really has feelings. Autumn, who was hurt and humiliated by a man she thought she could trust, is careful to protect t her heart.
Lori Foster is a master at creating characters who jump off the page and demand your full attention. This book would be worth reading just for the chance to get to know 7 year old Sadie! Fortunately, everything else about this book is golden!
Thanks #Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC of #TheSomersetGirls in return for an honest review.

I read this book a few days ago and it is still resonating with me. There is nothing sexier than a good dad. Nothing. It was one of the things that attracted me so much to my husband. He was a single dad and just watching how he cared and interacted with her sealed the deal me, plus I got a huge bonus in our marriage. I got a daughter. This book hit close with Autumn and her attraction with Tash. Then little Sadie. I wanted to reach into the book and hug her.
Ember and Mike were just combustible and HOT! I love it when I read a book and just cannot put it down, except for that pesky sleep and work thing. I think this is one of the most heartfelt books that I have read in a very long time.

"The Somerset Girls: A Novel" by Lori Foster is a fantastic read. I absolutely loved reading about Autumn, Tash, Sadie, Ember, Mike, Tracy, and Flynn. This is a wonderful story, packed with entertaining characters, romance, passion, humor, family, animal rescue, and more. I sincerely hope we'll get more from this wonderful cast of characters in the future. Highly recommend to all fans of romance, family, animal rescue, and entertaining characters.

This book is inherently about Tash and Autumn, but her sister Ember finds love with their partner on the farm. I loved how smoothly we switched between the sisters, usually when character switches happen its clunky and there's a dead stop between the characters. Lori was able to do this switch flawlessly.
Autumn is always taking care of her family and rescuing animals in need which is something i liked about this character. She also is an interior designer and works with her sister who does the building. Autumn has a huge heart and automatically takes to Tash's daughter Sadie.
Tash moved back home after his ex-wife died leaving him with his daughter. He's realizing that home life with his ex for his daughter wasn't great. He has a lot of work to do to help her trust again, but with Autumn's help they're able to give that to her.
These characters are flawlessly written, with tep hot guys that know how to treat their women. The Somerset girls are one of the best books Lori has written. My only complaint is I wish we could have seen Ember get married too or the sisters have a double wedding.

A Heartwarming novel says it all. I loved this book. I laughed, cried and fanned myself. Both sisters are dealing with emotional baggage and with the help of Tash and Mike they finally overcome what is holding them back. These two sisters are very different but love each other fiercely. The only thing I didn't like was Tash Ducker's name, it just so wrong of a name but other than that I loved the book.

Lori Foster does such a wonderful job creating characters that evoke true emotion. I laughed, cried, got angry & frustrated and then ended up with a smile on my face when all was said & done. I felt like I was living the story along with the characters. I identified with Autumn because she is the reliable, dependable, quiet & "bookish". sister. Her sister Ember is the total opposite...the WILD child! I love how they each overcome a "trauma" in their lives to become stronger, but the struggles along the way were enjoyable to read. They are so different and challenge each other, but at the end of the day, the sisterly bond will not be broken.
My favorite part of the book is the fact that they save animals & make them a part of a family, until forever homes can be found for them.

The two sisters are running the animal-rescue farm they inherited from their grandparents, Autumn and Ember Somerset are perfectly in sync but yet so different. Autumn would rather curl up with a good book (that's me) and Ember is a free spirit.
This book was so much fun to read, I loved it. The sisters were so much fun and they had their own special things they do The rescue brought me close to what my niece does in Alabama. Autumn was so cool to be that talented. with power tools and Ember with her designs. Both had bad memories of passed relations but finally but it behind them.
Then everything changes when Autumn get a job working for her a guy she had a crush on in school when he comes back to Somerset with his daughter. His daughter gets really close to Autumn. Neither one of them want to admit they have feelings for each other. Ember keeps pushing but she won't admit she has feelings for Mike who works for them at the recuse farm. Then they go to swim party at the beach where the whole town goes.
I could not put this book down because I had to keep going to see what was going to happen next between the four of them. But they helped their parents who they had built a house for on the farm since their father had a stroke. Loved Loved Loved this book.

The Somerset Girls was an easy read with enjoyable characters that were easy to like. The sisters overcome loss in more ways than one and find their happily ever after through a little hard work.
