Editorial Reviews

Review

This book has it all--
"This is one of the most fulfilling and wonderful romances I've read in a long time. I'm also so honored Melanie Moreland included a nod to my books (cue uncontrollable squeeing). I loved this gorgeous, heartwarming read and can't wait to read more in the series!"-
Scarlett Scott, USA Today Best Selling Author of Notorious Ladies of London

I ignored life around me until I finished --
"This standalone is the first of a new generation that is everything I loved about The Contract blown up. The scorching heat, the hurt and anger, the broken grumbly hero with the huge heart he knows nothing about. A top 2021 read for me, My Saving Grace had it all and I can't wait for more of the ABC Corp!"-
Stephanie Rose, author of Never Too Late series

My Saving Grace will tick off so many of your tropey goodness boxes --"The first book in her ABC Corps series, a spin-off from her Vested Interest series. From what I've read, her heroes are stern, intimidating, and somewhat hard to love. Her heroines are clever, so very clever, strong, determined, and an absolute joy to read."- Donna, Book +Main

I hope we get more--
"If you are a huge fan of The Contract series and Vested Interest series, you are going to want to get hooked on this new series."
- A Day With Ethel, YouTube Book Reviewer

Rewarded with a brilliant HEA--
"Melanie Moreland is some kind of emotional sorceress because once again she has created a story that will break your heart and then put it back together again, melding laughter and tears in unforgettable ways."
- From In Here review

In awe of the brilliance --
"In true Melanie Moreland fashion the reader is once again surrounded by characters that feel like they are family. Hopes and dreams are riding a very thin line and the reader turns each page needing more while at the same time they are in awe of the brilliance that is another Melanie Moreland masterpiece."
- The Overflowing Bookcase

Melanie Moreland
Brief content visible, double tap to read full content.
Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

New York Times/WSJ/USAT International bestselling author Melanie Moreland, lives a happy and content life in a quiet area of Ontario with her beloved husband of thirty-plus years and their rescue cat, Amber. Nothing means more to her than her friends and family, and she cherishes every moment spent with them.

While seriously addicted to coffee, and highly challenged with all things computer-related and technical, she relishes baking, cooking, and trying new recipes for people to sample. She loves to throw dinner parties, and also enjoys traveling, here and abroad, but finds coming home is always the best part of any trip.

Melanie loves stories, especially paired with a good wine, and enjoys skydiving (free falling over a fleck of dust) extreme snowboarding (falling downstairs), and piloting her own helicopter (tripping over her own feet.) She's learned happily-ever-afters, even bumpy ones, are all in how you tell the story.

4.5 stars My Saving Grace by Melanie Moreland was such an amazing read... why.... so many reasons....the connection between Jaxson Richard and Gracie Van Ryan burns up the pages as this taboo office romance will set your kindle afire! I adored how it was so very clear to the reader that Gracie was different for Richard, you really feel that this experience and successful lawyer felt an attraction to Gracie like nothing he had ever experience before... Gracie and Jaxson's office presence together and their out-of-office presence together have the reader understanding these two truly fit together .... The banter between Jaxson and Gracie's Dad Richard was beyond EPIC! So many great conversations in this book allow the reader to feel apart of this world! Oh and Jaxson's admin is amazing, he adds to the story and well so much to love in this book! Jaxson's charisma shines through as he charms Gracie's family .. her large family created by her parents inner circle...oh and yes he charms the reader as well. Do me a favor... when you get to the part where you might want to strangle Jaxson.. wait... because WOW... the way this lawyer puts the pieces together will impress as he makes it very clear Gracie comes first! I am so excited for Finding Roman's Heart next! This book is easily read standalone! But if you want to start with the first book about this next generation make sure to read A Merry Vested Wedding! Gracie's parents happy can be found in The Contract a mutli-week New York Times Bestselling read!" Denise ~ Shh Moms Reading

    Loved, loved, loved!!

    This is my fourth read by Miss Melanie (stop glaring at me, Karen) and I want to read so many more! I just love all her words I’ve read so far. It amazes me at how easily I’m pulled into her stories and lose track of time and reality.

    Once I started My Saving Grace, I didn’t want to put it down. I was lost in the world of Grouchy McGroucherson, Jaxson Richards, and the sassy Grace Van Ryan who could put him in his place. I loved both of them. He is a powerful man who’s always all sexy & scowly. She is vulnerable, yet so very strong and smart and confident - a perfect heroine for him.

    Jaxson is her boss. Off limits. He’s older than her. He’s grumpy to her sunshine. On paper, they just don’t/can’t work. But their attraction is undeniable. The chemistry white hot. Her sassiness sparked something in him. So he went after what he wanted. And she couldn’t resist him.

    Their relationship grew from articling student (intern) and boss, to secret lovers, to two people who wanted and needed different things.

    Jaxson has his reasons for thinking love isn’t for him. It never lasts. But my goodness does he wish it were possible so he could keep Gracie for himself. But he just can’t.

    He may not have known how to say those three little words, but my goodness...the gestures, his actions, his responses... they showed so. Much. Love.

    Watching him work for her love, fight for her attention punched me hard in the feels. He so badly wanted her heart, but knew he’d eventually break it.

    As emotional as this was, it also gave me its share of smiles and giggles. Richard Van Ryan & Jaxson in the same room together is a hilarious thing. Their banter was everything. The over bearing, overprotective father up against the arrogant alphahole Jaxson, both being a bit possessive over Grace.

    I’ve come to realize I can count on Melanie to give me a quality story, all the feels, and lovable characters. This story is a perfect example of that. Loved it!!!

    Did I read the Vested Interest or The Contract series before this one? No. Do I wish I did? Yes! Will I go back and read them? Most definitely! I need more Richard!

    I finished reading My Saving Grace yesterday, but I can’t seem to come up with the right words to describe this book. All of my usual words don’t seem good enough. This book captured me, brought me back into a world I love - the BAM world - and let me see a character who I had only seen before as a child become a woman. How do I describe the feelings it gave me in the proper words?
    Grace is Richard VanRyan’s oldest daughter. She may resemble her mother, Katy, but she is her father’s daughter! She is starting her internship with a law firm before she takes the bar exam. Her mentor is Jaxson Richards. An older, established man with a past that has left him jaded when it comes to relationships. They both have an attraction to each other but don’t voice it since he’s her boss.
    I loved Grace! She is strong, determined, driven and knows what she wants out of life. She’s also compassionate, loving, and loyal. She was a perfect combination of Richard and Katy!
    Jaxson is an interesting man. His childhood was anything but good, which has scared him and made him very untrusting of people. He doesn’t believe in love or forever, just the right now. Then Grace walks into his office! She brings out the caring side of him he has never experienced! He begins to see more then just now with her, but he doesn’t know how that’s suppose to work.
    It was absolutely WONDERFUL to visit with all the BAM characters again!! I have missed them! I have to say that Katy and Addi are my favorites! It was also wonderful to see the relationship between Jaxson and Richard!! Too funny! Oh, and Michael is my favorite new character!!! Loved him!
    This book was fantastic, amazing, wonderful, etc, etc!!!! It moved me, touched my heart, and made me happy! I highly recommend this book!!!!

    Grace was a smart and ambitious woman who grew up in a loving family. She was an articling student for hot-shot lawyer, Jaxson, who was very volatile. They shared a strong attraction but Jaxson could not commit. There was a lot of hurt and I admired Grace for being so graceful. It was a good read and there were lots of side characters from previous books.

    This was a great story of a man that thought he didn’t know how to love because of his past, but a good strong woman showed him how. Amazing story.

    Wow! Ms. Moreland has done it again. This book is well written. It made me laugh, cry and warmed my heart. It talks about finding love where you least expect it, about family ties not with blood but friendship, respect and loyalty.

    I liked The contract series and vested interest.
    But this book was al over the place and liked nothing about it. Most of all Jaxson. Don't know if i will be reading other books in this series if they are going to be like this one.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 15, 2021
    I knew reading the A Merry Vested Wedding novella that I was gonna fall in love with this new series from Melanie Moreland and I wasn’t wrong.....

    Following on from the BAM boys stories, this series focuses on the lives and loves of their grown children.

    Grace VanRyan is such a daddy’s girl... both in her relationship with her father but also in how like him she is in manner and characteristics (though she shares a load of traits with her mom!!). I love that she is so focussed on what she wants to do, knows her mind and loves with her whole heart. I hated when she was hurt, even though I understood the reasoning when it was revealed, it still broke my heart that she had felt the way she did..

    Jaxson Richards comes across as an arrogant ass except when, for the most part, he’s dealing with Grace. The confirmed bachelor is knocked for six when he meets Gracie and to be honest, he’s not got a chance in hell of recovering.... until he blows it big time!!! Again, I got it, afterwards.. but at the time I wanted to throw him under a train!

    The road to their HEA was not going to be an easy one for Jaxson, but I loved that he was a determined and stubborn as his Gracie. She gave him a run for his money but gods, I was rooting for them from the get go and I couldn’t wait to see how things would go for them.

    Catching up with the BAM family and meeting the ABC kids whose books are coming was a lot of fun and reminded me of exactly why I adore Melanie’s writing.

    I’m so looking forward to the next book in the series and finding out who’s gonna be next to fall.....

    A must read in my opinion.

    I read the Vested Interest series of books and enjoyed every single one of them for very different reasons. Now we move to the next generation and it didn't dissapoint! Gracie's story was a great read, the feelings she and Jaxon had smouldering were building up to fireworks. It was lovely to be enveloped in the world of BAM and now ABC. To feel the warmth of that huge family, envelope you. Draw you in and make you feel welcome again into their world. It made me sad at times for the struggles of Jaxon and Gracie in their relationship, a little naughty too as they broke rules but it also made me laugh out loud at the antics of Jaxon and Gracie's dad, Richard.. I so enjoyed this book. Thankyou MM.
