All Will Be Revealed. In this conclusion to the Brambleberry Creek story, series-running questions are answered, series-running plans are executed, and everyone gets some form of their happy ending. Thus making this a perfect trilogy-ending book. Yet again on the shorter side at 273 pages, Bromke manages to pack quite a few laughs, a few tears, and even a touch of steam into a generally shorter tale - and, again, manages to wrap everything up while doing so. Truly an excellent series and an excellent endpoint to that series, with a solid send-off to boot. Very much recommended.

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek by Elizabeth Bromke.

I had never heard of this author before picking up this book, and I really enjoyed it.

This was a charming small-town romance with multiple POV. Although this is book 3 in a series, you don’t need to have read the others in order to understand this book.

A sweet, quick read, a perfect way to spend an hour or two.

Morgan Jo Coyle, (MoJo) grew up in Brambleberry Creek, Now she is all grown up and is about to get married and opening a new business with her cousin, Amber, at the farmhouse where she grew up. They are fixing up the old barn and as they do a lot of memories come back.
MoJo's hopes and dreams are about to come true, things are falling into place. But, then when she finds her mother's diary, her world is turned upside down. There is only one thing to do, and that is to ride it out and see where she ends up. There is a lot of depth to the story, and it tells us about what they and life were like in the past and what is happening today.
I received an ARC from Bookouture through NetGalley.

I liked this one a lot. This is the first book I have read for the Brambleberry Creek series, but I want to go back and read the others.
I liked Morgan and all she faced and how she learned from a lot of it.
A great setting, and lots of great characters.

Thanks NetGalley for this ARC!

I love this Author and her style of writing. This is a wonderful heartwarming story of second chances. So many secrets are held in this family and they all come to light. The strength of a multi generation family and the love that abounds is a refreshing read. I was given this lovely book from NetGalley and am freely leaving a review.

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek is the third book in the Brambleberry Creek. A small-town romance series about on the Coyle family. The family is converting the former farm into a winery. This book focuses on Morgan Jo and her cousin Amber. Morgan Jo is planning her wedding at the same time as trying to get the winery up and running. Amber is helping any way she can. But, like most families, this family has its secrets and sometimes those secrets are life changing.

Ms. Bromke has again written another great small-town romance filled with characters you love, and some you really dislike, dealing with the unexpected, family, friendship and most importantly happily ever afters for some of the characters. I can’t wait to see where she goes next in the Coyle family saga.

So come to Brambleberry Creek and get to know the family, you will not regret it.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley and Boukouture in exchange for a voluntary and honest review. My opinions are my own and not solicited in any way.

Secrets at Bramblebery Creek has been my favorite of this series. Morgan Jo, Amber, and the rest of their family deal with lots of upheaval in their personal and professional lives. The story moves quick, keeps your interest, and makes me hope that there is one more novel in this wonderful, heartwarming series.

Thank you to the publisher for an advanced copy of this book. This is my honest opinion.

Elizabeth Bromke's Secrets at Brambleberry Creek is the third book in the Brambleberry Creek series featuring the Coyle family. With friendship, love, and good old fashion country traditions, this story is sure to grab your heart.

In this Kentucky based novel, a small town farm setting complete with an old fashion family home adds beauty and warmth to the plot. Each member of the Coyle family creates an interesting and dramatic element in the cast. With a wedding and a new business in their future, can the Coyle family unit hold up to the pressure of their upcoming ventures?

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek is a feel good book with romance sweetly sprinkled in. Although premarital sex is mentioned, it is done in a tasteful and non-graphic manner. Overall the book is clean and free from violence.

Secrets at Brambleberry Creek by Elizabeth Bromke is available on September 26th. (5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)

Thank you, NetGalley and Bookouture, for sharing this lovely novel with me. I enjoyed the writing and the book cover is stunning!

Quick read and heart warming.

Morgan and her cousin, Amber, are busy getting ready to open their new family winery while also planning Morgan’s wedding to Emmett. Along the way, many secrets are revealed that shatter everything both women believed about their lives. They also have a couple of secrets themselves.

This is a heartwarming story about coming to grips with unexpected changes, new discoveries, family dynamics, unconditional love, with a little humor, and several HEAs. You might want a box of tissues handy, also.

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

Our library came across this author when I was looking for wholesome books to add to our large print section. There were a series of her books printed in Large print and I purchased them for our patrons. They really enjoyed them. Elizabeth Bromke writes women's fiction and heartwarming romance. In her stories, she weaves together family dynamics and the triumphs and trials of modern relationships. Echoes of the past flavor her books with nostalgia. This is the third book in the series and it will be more enjoyable if you read them in order. I highly recommend them. Many family secrets are revealed in this book.

This is a well-written book. The family story is told from multiple points of view and from different time periods. Major changes are taking place in the family, such as a wedding, the opening of a winery, new people in town, and relationship changes.
5 stars

This book is the third in the series and this book should be read in its proper order. Many family secrets are revealed in this book.

This is a well written book. The family story is told from multiple points of view and from different time periods. Major changes are taking place in the family, such as a wedding, opening of a winery, new people in town, relationship changes. Some of the changes are good, some are very upsetting. Each person reacts differently as revelations happen. Can the family deal with the changes? Can they put the pieces back together and move forward?

I recommend this book for mature readers. There is no explicit sex nor excessive language but the situations are of a mature nature.

Brambleberry Creek is a charming town that draws you in and makes you wish you were part of it

Every family has secrets...some more than others.

In this charming, multi-POV story, we learn about the secrets of the Coyle family as they slowly reveal them.

Morgan Jo: Engaged to Emmett, she is realizing her dream of opening a vineyard and winery using family recipes and homegrown fruits. She and Emmett decide to combine their wedding with the opening gala.. As the day draws nearer, the secrets threaten to overwhelm her.

Amber: Recently single and trying to navigate her life. As she is helping start up the winery, she feels a spark with a new love. However, secrets have her rethink her future.

Carla May: Morgan Jo's mother and keeper of the biggest secret. Is the timing right to reveal the truth about the past?

The over-arcing storyline was about family and the love they have for one another. I am looking forward to reading the other stories from this series.

A gorgeous, uplifting story about family secrets, unconditional love and staying true to who you are—even when life throws you a curveball. Gift yourself a copy, because you'll probably read the whole thing in one sitting. I was very impressed, perfectly structured and so moving. Clever, thought-provoking, evocative. A touching and beautiful novel. I don’t think I’ll be able to articulate quite how good this book actually is.

The characters are likable and fun…I enjoyed the details of the farm and characters…this is a quick read…curl up and be transported. Enjoy the people who come alive on the pages…although this book is fiction, it reads like nonfiction at times…I kept wondering what would happen next…I kept hoping what would… I look forward to more books by this talented author…love and romance…family and friends…secrets…
