Intense, surprising, gratifying.
I was equal parts excited and sad that I was finally getting the final Hennington brother’s book. They were all so wonderful and unique, it was hard to know this was the last of their stories. Bell Buckle was a fun and wonderful place to get to visit in the pages of these books and I can only hope that we will be able to check in with all the folks we met there in future works by Corinne.Going in to Say I’m Yours I wasn’t sure who I was rooting for in terms of Grace finding a forever love. I knew I wanted Trent, Cooper, and Grace to be happy, I just wasn’t sure who would make each of them most content. I was worried there was too much water under the Trent and Grace bridge, that the feelings between Cooper and Grace were too platonic for anything serious. I almost wanted there to be a whole new set of love interests so I wouldn’t have to see one of the people I’d grown to love over the course of the other books get hurt. Corinne, of course, knew exactly what she was doing and crafted this story in a way where each person came out whole and having learned more about themselves and what they needed to be happy.While I loved Grace and the strength she seemed to have gained between the beginning of Say You’ll Stay and the end of Say I’m Yours and I appreciated how amazing a man Cooper was throughout this book (despite my less than kind feelings toward him in Say You’ll Stay), it was Trent who completely won me over in this book. Watching him grapple with his own fears and insecurities, seeing him learn what he needed and figure out how to hold on to the people he loved most in the world was at times heartbreaking, but ultimately wholly satisfying.Once again Corinne Michaels delivers a book that is intense, surprising, and gratifying. When I read my first Corinne Michaels book I knew I’d found someone whose books were exactly the kind of stories I love. She has yet to disappoint me, if anything her books have become more meaningful and in line with my reading tastes. Each book tells a beautiful love story and touches on topics that are dark, life-changing and intense. Ms. Michaels always stays true to her characters and the reactions they have to those life-changing events feels completely authentic. If she hadn’t already won me over with her Salvation series, I would have declared my allegiance to her books after reading the Hennington brother’s books.

Sit while reading, possible swooning episodes
Another great one by Corinne! I especially like the camio of Natalie & Liam 😉😉 A lot of crying, swooning & wanting to smack someone upside their head. But this story left a lovely warm feeling after the last words ended and I enjoyed this one just as much as the other two! Hoping that Cooper & Emily get their own story soon!

Review: Say I'm Yours
Say I'm Yours by Corinne Michaels is the third standalone story about the Hennington brothers. If I thought the first two books, Say You'll Stay and Say You Want Me, were emotional this book topped them both. The back-and-forth, the heartache on both sides, the family issues and tragedies. This was a beautiful story of two people who have always loved each other but have never truly found their way to each other until now.Trent is hard-headed and over-confident that no matter how he pulls away Grace will always be there for him. When she finally cannot take anymore of his unwillingness to commit he finally realizes he went to far, he fell short of what she needed in the man she loved.Grace has always loved Trent. She just cannot handle being not enough. She wants the happy life, the husband, the kids, the feeling of being enough but he just can't find it in himself to give that to her. She cuts ties with Trent and attempts to move on. And that's just the start of the story.Secrets play a big part in this book. Secret fears that hold a person back from fully loving another. Family secrets that can completely devastate every single family member. Secrets that take your whole entire world as you knew it and tip it on it's head. Beautifully well-written (as always) and perfectly paced, another fantastic book from this must-read author. Enjoy!

Say I'm Yours
I loved this series!!! What an amazing read. Witty, strong family units, laugh out loud humor that is so realistic, classic alpha male with a sweet, sassy heroine and the hot sizzling romance is better than the sun. This is what this author brings to the table with her fantastic stories. This was the last of the series and a wonderful completion. I don't do spoilers, but you will get everything in this book (series). Ms Michaels gives you what I like to call homegrown tales that weave into your heart and soul. I have come to expect nothing less than her stellar writing when reading one of her books. Definitely a must read 📚💕

This is a great second chance romance story.
Another emotion filled story, with laugher and tears. This is Trent and Grace’s story. They’ve been together on and off for 20 years until she says enough is enough, she can’t take him not saying he loves her and being distant. She walks away heart broken but knowing it’s the right thing to do. Cooper decides this is his chance at trying to win Grace’s affection, so he steps up and asks her out. Grace tries to move on from Trent and agrees to go on a date with Cooper. They’ve been friends forever as he’s her best friends brother, and he’s a really good guy so what could go wrong! Trent hears that Grace is moving on without him, and it’s a wake up call, he decided then he’s going to do what he can to win her back.Loved their story. The characters are great in this book, I’d love to live in their little town and be friends with them all. They are what friendships and family are all about.

Trent, I'm yours
I haven't read a Corinne Michaels book that I haven't loved and Trent Hennington is another, this series has blown me away from start to finish.I loved Trent and Grace's story. Grace has been in love with Trent forever and I'm pretty sure it's been the same for Trent, but throughout the 20 years of dating he's pushed and pulled Grace without ever giving her full time commitment and after being taken for granted one too many times Grace tries to walk away this time.So when Cooper, Presley's brother asks Grace out on a date, Grace is reluctant but agrees and gives it ago although her heart belongs to Trent always, but when Trent finds this out it spurs him into admitting taking Grace for granted and promises to do better to be better.So now Grace has to decide if Trent is worth fighting for. We can see Trent is broken, but there is no doubt his feelings for Grace, we see his fear with him pulling away from Grace over the years, but he never once expected he might actually lose her. Grace was always hopeful on Trent and really gave him the shake he needed to deal with his fears.Say I'm Yours, is the perfect blend of angst and romance.I love the whole Belt Buckle town/community and I'm hopeful for more, but those Hennington brothers will be a hard act to follow.

Love can conquer all!
I’m so bloomin happy right now! I have to say Bell Buckle Tennessee has fast become one of my favourite places to lose myself in & that’s all thanks to Corinne & these wonderful characters she has given me. It’s a place that warms my heart & soothes my soul, all while making me fall in love with the most gorgeous brothers imaginable.Say I’m Yours is Trent’s story & knowing what I do about the older Hennington, my heart was already prepared for another rollercoaster of a ride, but wow I wasn’t expecting some of the twists & turns that Corinne layered into this rendering journey of love, hope, faith & courage. From the first page, to the very last word I laughed, sobbed & held my breath as I allowed the emotions of the book to take hold & carry me into this beautiful story.Who are my heartbreakers & soul-takers!!!Trent & Grace have been sweethearts since they were teens & over the last twenty plus years their off & on relationship has brought them some wonderful memories, but also some heartache too.Trent H – Oh this man is just divine. Built for sin he is hot, toned & to top it off he wears a police uniform (fans self) and truly I wondered how a man like this, so confident & self-assured, strong & dominant could be scared, unsure & a good bit lost. His love for Gracie is easy to see, yet he is unable to give her what she wants. I could feel his fear of the ‘what ifs’ that keep his heart locked down tight – albeit foolishly & that really pulled hard at my heart strings, filling me with the need to guide him to a future he more than deserves.Gracie R – This girl is just precious. She loves so completely, truly & passionately, never ever giving any less than her whole heart. But that alone also means that she can be hurt, let down & heartbroken. All I wanted to do was squeeze her & tell her how truly beautiful – inside & out she was & to never give up hope, because she really is the light in the darkness & a woman who deserves the very best life has to offer – including the unconditional, all-consuming love from the man of her dreams.How was the story & feels?It sucked me in completely. Their journey was a complex one that pushed & pulled me constantly. Even though I could see & feel every ounce of love this gorgeous couple had for each other, sometimes they couldn’t see it themselves & wowser did that set me on angst overdrive – especially with that walking god called Cooper on the scene. I willed them to open their eyes, to be courageous & take a leap of faith with every fibre of my soul & boy oh boy when they leapt together – it blew me away in the most epic way.How was the writing?OMG no words to describe fully how truly phenomenal Corinne writes. I love her ability to draw me in so effortlessly. To deliver characters so different from the others, yet so uniquely powerful in their own right they swoop right in & steal my heart, soul & every shred in-between.Say I’m Yours was packed with so many unexpected punches. It was more than just a love story to me. It was a story of faith, courage & self-discovery. Of family, overcoming adversity & accepting life just as it is in that given moment – flaws & all.Would I recommended it to my Bestie?Hell yes. I have already & will continue. Although it is a standalone, the Hennington boys are just magnificent & all my GF’s truly do need these men & their sassy sidekicks in their lives.5 Tender Loving Stars

A Must Read - 5+++ STARS!!!
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Corinne does this to me with every book she writes, she blows me away with her writing, the story and journey she creates, and the feelings she evokes from me.Trent Hennigton is just SWOON! I've wanted Trent's story for ages, but this will make you see him so differently and fall in love with him even more. And of course Grace - she is strong, kind, and resilient. A wonderful book with some brilliant characters, and of course plenty of our other favourites from Bell Buckle.I'm not giving away any spoilers about the story line itself, or what happens, but trust me when I say this is yet another wonderful book from Corinne that you WILL NOT want to miss!! It will make you feel every single emotion out there and more. I laughed and I cried, I swooned and I sobbed, I got cross and I was satisfied... Corinne really is a wonderful story teller!! Full of emotion, angst, twists, turns and surprises, it is everything we have come to want and get excited about from Corinne and OH SO MUCH MORE!!!An absolute must read!!
