Don't Let Go is a sweet tale about two people with opposite goals.
He never wants kids, a wife, or anything that would make him feel.
She wants it all- kids, a home, an adoring husband.
He doesn't talk to her because he is afraid he'll want more.
She can't seem to stop talking around him and she always wants more.
He is a motorcycle riding, tattooed man. He works in a body shop and creates amazing works of art.
She looks like the sexy, sweet girl next door. She owns her own bakery and creates magnificent confections of all kinds.
They aren't so different, but they are emotionally worlds apart. Until...
Don't Let Go is book 6 in the Hope series by Jaci Burton. It's sweet, fun, and sexy. Plus it has Roxie, aka Killer. What more could you want?

Brady left Hope behind long ago with no plans to come back but after tragedy strikes his family a short stay is just what is needed. Forming no bonds is really his plan but he can't seem to walk away from baker Megan, and her pastries. What started as a pastry and coffee addiction became so much more even thought Brady really was looking for something light and temporary. Megan was hoping to meet someone she felt a connection with but temporary resident Brady wasn't exactly her plan. Brady feels that connection too but when it comes to reevaluating his plans, he's not sure if he's ready to give their future a try. Can Megan convince him that giving love a chance is worth it? Loved the continuation of the series, great characters with an emotional connection.

Jaci has done it again. Brady is a reclusive artist, his canvas being motorcycles. He is dealing with the loss of his brother and doesn't have time for people. When he starts to notice Megan, and who wouldn't she's adorable and a fantastic baker. But is Brady ready to heal his wounded soul and find happiness? Can Megan break down the walls and fill in the pain?
Hot guy who rescues a little dog can't be all wrong for our bubbly baker. Grab your copy and settle in for some steamy times, fun times with friends and a pitcher of margaritas.

I thought this book is more like Bella Andre/ Layla Hagens book. But this book is even worst than their books.
There is no character development, no character chemistry and no story. No plot, no drama. Nothing. Except a lot of baking, dog, motorcycle painting and water. I dont know what is it about drinking water that the author always insert it into the sentences.

Good story overall however, I feel like the ending was rushed.
Spoiler
There was a little build up to the breakup that we knew had to happen at some point but that felt rush and the time after to resolve and move to the HEA... way to short in my opinion.merlin_reads's review against another edition

It's funny because I'm not a huge straight up romance fan but I find that I do enjoy Jaci Burton's work. In Don't Let Go, a baker who just wants to set down more permanent roots in her hometown falls for reclusive, broody mechanic who is just looking to save enough money to leave town and start his own business elsewhere. But a few baked goods and one lost puppy later has Brady rethinking his decision to leave.
I really liked both Meghan and Brady. Even though Meghan was a tad bit aggressive in the beginning, I had to admire her tenacity for going after what she wanted - and using baked goods to help her cause. When she finds out that Brady wants the exact opposite of what she wants, she doesn't try to change him. Instead, she tries to change herself to maybe be this kid of person that can just have a no-strings relationship. Brady is a very smart man and obviously knows that Meghan isn't the nonrelationship type but he's a little selfish and doesn't want to give her up, so he goes along with it.
We all know where this is going- Brady gets scared because he starts to realize maybe he doesn't want to leave and Meghan starts to realize that the nonrelationship game just isn't for her. Conflict abounds, drama ensues. And I just ate it up. Also, guys, the puppy - just swoon now.
A cute contemporary that doesn't need to be read in a series even though it's part of one.

No puedo decir que es el libro que más me ha gustado de esta saga, porque no lo es. Le veo muchos fallos y me ha decepcionado bastante, aunque el final me ha derretido el corazón por completo. Me encantan los personajes que tienen que lidiar con un dolor tan fuerte como una pérdida familiar, creo que es un tipo de trauma muy difícil de reflejar, sobre todo porque cada persona lidia con ello de forma muy diferente. En este caso me ha gustado bastante cómo se ha hecho. Se me ha quedado corto, yo le habría metido 100 páginas más tanto de duelo y pérdida como de historia de amor. Porque me da la sensación de que estos dos no se conocen para nada. Lo único que han hecho durante todo el libro es comer y tener sexo. Ha habido un momento en la novela en el que en cada capítulo o cada dos capítulos había una escena de sexo. Me ha parecido excesivo porque casi no hablan y no se conocen prácticamente.
Me ha dado mucha pena que la historia de Megan, a la que le tenia muchas ganas porque me encanta el personaje, me halla decepcionado un poco. No está mal del todo, pero siento que le falta desarrollo. Es una lástima.
Como ya he dicho, el final me ha calentado el corazón. Esa escena final de Brady con sus padres me ha sacado la lagrimilla. Creo que este libro tenía mucho potencial y la autora puede hacer un gran trabajo si se lo propone. No sé si seguiré con esta saga, pero intentaré leer algo más de Jaci Burton a ver si hay algo que me guste más.
