Some things even a billionaire can't buy.

Dalton Raines always gets what he wants, and the first time he steps into Superbia Springs, he knows he wants to buy it. There's only one thing standing in his way: Noah.

For the first time in his life, Noah Turnstock felt safe, living with his friends in the old mansion they'd inherited. Finally he's in a place no one can take away from him.

Until the house catches Dalton's eye.

Dalton knows the way to get Noah on his side. He knows how to wine and dine a man like this, to get him so wrapped up he'll agree to anything. Except...he's never run into anyone like Noah before.

It was supposed to be seduction. Then it turned into something more.

When a visitor from Noah's past shows up, he realizes he will never be accepted into Dalton's life. And when Dalton's family meets Noah, their reaction could lose Dalton everything.

They can't have each other. They're from different worlds. But their hearts say otherwise. Their hearts say they can have everything they want. 

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!

Rachel Kane's More Than Everything, the second book in the Superbia Springs series, is fantastic. 

Damn! There is disgusting homophobia in this one, right from the start. I was livid and fully invested immediately. Honestly, this is small town life at it's finest, full of controlling townspeople and those who just want to be included. 

This story revolves around a mansion and the fight for it's future. And what a complex fight it is. After meeting in opposition of the house's future, Dalton and Noah set upon a relationship of their own.

Not only are Dalton and Noah complete opposites, with vastly different backgrounds, the differences between Dalton and his brother are fabulous. And in the end, Dalton's talk to his brother about what he wants for his future struck me. It's extremely poignant and very touching.

As for the romance, it's definitely sweet and beautiful. The relationship between Dalton and Noah is fantastic. I enjoy the way it develops, as well as the way both men help one another in the end. 

The character growth in this book is fantastic. Dalton is a man who has always allowed his family to push him around, and yet in the end, he finds himself. Seeing him discover his passions is wonderful. 

The writing is excellent, with intriguing characters and some fabulous character growth. There are plenty of side characters who add to the story, and the hotel is it's own character, fully brought to life by the author. 

More Than Everything is a wonderful addition to the Superbia Springs series. It's a wonderful journey towards finding love and a purpose in life. This Rachel Kane book, and series, is perfect for any fan of small town romances.

Blurb

A heartbroken single dad. A handyman with a past full of secrets.
And the small town that would change them forever.

It should've been a dream come true for Liam, inheriting the old
mansion named Superbia Springs. It helped him meet Mason, the
handyman who kept the town running. Mason is sweet, generous, and
good with his hands. (If only he'd use those hands on Liam...) But
Mason has a secret, and the old house has a secret, and the whole town
seems full of secrets.

Mason knows he can't fall for Liam, no matter how the man makes him
burn with passion. Gay single dads are off limits when you're stuck
in the closet. Liam hates secrets, and after hearing what happened to
Liam's father and his ex, Mason desperately wants to give him his
heart...and his whole story. But how can he tell Liam what's really
keeping him in the closet, when it could destroy people's lives?

Liam knows he should pack up his bags and his baby and head straight
back for his home in the city...but something about Superbia draws him
back inexorably. Maybe it's the town itself. Maybe it's the mansion,
with all its mysteries. Or maybe it's because he can't get Mason out
of his mind, out of his dreams, out of his heart.

Can the irresistible desire the two men feel for each other overcome
the small-town grudges, feuds and scandals that threaten to keep them

apart?

Review 

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Rachel Kane's Spring Forward, the first book in the Superbia Springs series, is a sweet and tender read. 

When Liam arrives in Superbia Springs, he has no idea that his life is about to change forever. He's in town to see the property he inherited, hoping to solve some mysteries about the place and his father. But, he never expected to find love. 

Mason and Liam's story includes a closeted father, family secrets, and controlling and powerful townspeople. But, most of all, it includes the promise of a beautiful future. And a baby. 

Liam's backstory is well developed, baby and all. He's a lovable character who the reader desperately wants to find love again. And Mason. Ahh Mason. He's been hiding his true self forever, and is sure he can never come out. The conflict is entertaining, emotional, and riveting. 

The author does a wonderful job, carrying off a pleasant tone throughout. The writing is great, with lots of suspense, intrigue, and chemistry. There's plenty of passion and romance to satisfy. 

I love Spring Forward. This Rachel Kane romance looks to be the start of a fantastic small town series. With plenty of glimpses into the surrounding secondary characters, I am excited to see what happens next.
