Editorial Reviews

Review

★★★★★ "I just want to praise H.M Shander for evoking my emotion. What I love the most is the fact that Shander does not offer the reader with steamy sex scene to make her story spicier. Her story is great because it purely portrays a life that prolly happens in our real life. There are no strong girls with the Cinderella syndrome who go crawling over CEO or billionaire's bed. Shander's romance is purely sweet and engaging. These reasons make Shander's Serving Up Devotion as a good romance book, one should at least try to read to sweeten their life." Des, reviewer

★★★★★ The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book. I
loved the chemistry between the characters." - Jeanne, romance reader

★★★★★ "This book has
all the feels! You will be drawn in from the first page and won't be able to put it down. " - Emma Tharp, USA Today bestselling romance author

★★★★★ "This is the first book by this author that I have read. A
well written book that has a great storyline with a story that flows smoothly from one page to the other. I would say keep the Kleenex handy because if you are like me you are going to need it. " - Barbara, romance reader

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

USA TODAY bestselling author H.M. Shander is a star-gazing romantic at heart who once attended Space Camp and dreamed of piloting the space shuttle—specifically Columbia (and yes, its loss was devastating). While she never made it to NASA, she now explores the universe of swoony romance, writing sassy heroines and sweet, cinnamon-roll heroes who find love in unexpected places.

By day, she’s an elementary school librarian, delighting classes of eager kids with animated storybook readings and attempting the Herculean feat of remembering 700+ student names. By night, she moonlights as a contemporary romance novelist, crafting emotional, heartwarming love stories with just the right amount of sass.

She speaks four languages (two exceptionally well): English, French, American Sign Language, and Sarcasm—each proving useful in her many roles as Wife, Mother, Birth Doula, Teacher, and Librarian. Her extreme coffee habit fuels both her writing sessions and her ability to function before noon. She’s also a devoted sky-watcher, rainbow-chaser, and collector of moments that make life magical.

When she’s not writing, reading, or caffeinating, she can be found hunting for the perfect cozy blanket, rewatching her favorite comfort shows (Once Upon a Time anyone?), or getting far too emotionally invested in fictional characters (hers or otherwise).

    This is a sweet slow burn romance but so much more. It is a heart wrenching, emotional read as the heroine, Audrina , is the caregiver for her younger brother in the later stages of a debilitating disease. She is totally committed to him and his care, allowing little else in her life, but her work. The author does an incredible job of taking the reader along on this extremely taxing journey. Chad comes into her life when he is hired to build a wheelchair ramp on her porch. The two have great connection, but she repeatedly puts him off, having no time in her life for a relationship. Having lived through sorrow and loss himself, he is gentle and patient with her, always serving and providing comfort for her. This story was not at all what I was expecting, but it was an amazing read!

    This is a story that will tug at your heart and hold it thigh. After the passing of her mother, Audrina began to take care of her brother, under other circumstance it would not be anything, but with his disabilities this changes her live and her home to make sure he is comfortable.

    Chad was hired to adapt Audrina's home to for her brother's needs. The more he gets to know Audrina the closer they get and more he realizes she needs someone to look after her.

    This is great ready that is full of emotions, passion and love that will take you on an amazing journey page after page.

    This book is a gem in that it deals with disability. In most romance stories, everyone is disgustingly healthy or gets injured and heals promptly. The struggle and stress of family caring for younger loved ones and the effect that has on their personal life is rarely a subject of a story. Ms. Shander does this so well. Audrina finally decides to allow herself to accept Chad after she realizes that time is not going to wait for her forever. Their attraction is sweet, and both are holding back for different reasons. Her "Big Gesture" is clever and effective.

    Audrina has given up her life to take care of her disabled younger brother. She is entirely selfless in the lengths she will go to in order to give him the best quality of life she can provide. Chad has had a great loss in his life and understands her desire to be everything for her brother. But he also knows that having your entire focus on one person with no respite can leave you a shell if there is nothing of who you are left. Theirs is an angsty story but ultimately will they both realize you can move into the present and without forgetting about the past while going into the future.

    The first few chapters did not capture my attention. Sure the reader needs a little backstory to understand what is going on, but TMI bogs the story down and I almost DNF'd. I kept going and was re-engaged at the entrance of Michael. With him, I saw Audrina's struggles and began to like her ( I didn't at first). Wasn't convinced why Chad wanted to help her so badly in the beginning, doing the ramp at a loss-wish there was more explanation of his motivation. TBH I hovered between two stars and three, finally going with three as I enjoyed the ending.

    This is a fantastic read that has you swept up in the storyline as you turn each page to find out how things will work out. A story of romance between characters who are realistic and dealing with real-life issues. There's emotions, twists, real life and so much more in this romantic read.

    This book was heartwarming and yet so emotional. It's a romantic story with a slow burn that happy and cry, I really didn't want it to end. Exceptional writing in the realities of a disability. This series is definitely worth the read.
