Staci has done it again and, oh, is my heart swooning. I loved Living Out Loud! And of course, like all of Staci’s other books, I was left feeling heartbroken simply because the story was over.

In this installment of the Austen series, we follow Annie Daschel who, after the death of her father, moved to New York with her mother and two sisters. When her father died she vowed to start living out loud just like her father would have wanted. She began making a list of firsts she wanted to accomplish. First to be crossed off? Get a job at Wasted Words and this is where she changed the life of Greg Brandon forever.

Greg had worked at Wasted Words as the lead bartender. As soon as he ran into Annie, he knew there was something special about her. As much as he tried to keep their relationship as strictly friends, he finally realized that was not even remotely possible.

I love the way Staci writes. It pulls the reader into the story immediately and captivates you from the first sentence. The way she is able to capture the characters and explore both sides of the story makes it that much more enthralling. If you are looking for a wonderfully sweet love story, this is the book to read! I of course HAVE to rate this with 5 magnificent stars and can’t wait for the next installment of this series! ❤ ❤ ❤
