Blurb:

Aiden Wellington has it all. He has an amazing, fulfilling job as a lawyer. He has a wonderful family who are all married with children. He has fancy cars, friends, and a beautiful Seattle home. Yes, he has everything a man could ever ask for, everything except the one thing that he desires most…a woman.

Savvy Russell has led an extremely hard life. She’s learned from a very early age that good things just don’t happen to her. She’s convinced karma has it out for her. When she finds something good, ultimately she’s left with nothing except for the shirt on her back. She’s always waiting for her newly found piece of happiness to be ripped away from her.

When life literally throws Savvy into Aiden’s arms can he get past his bitterness and see what is right in front of him?
Will Savvy finally put aside her misguided feelings of self-worthlessness to see what everybody else sees?
Is it possible to replace a lifetime of hurt with something as simple as love?

Kristine's Review: 

Reviewed: April 2015.

The Running into Love series has always been an uplifting reading experience for me, stories of trials and hurt, of lost love and second chances. It's been a cathartic experience, watching these characters overcome past hurts, both physical and emotional, finding their way back to themselves, to those who love them.

Aiden Wellington has always been something of an enigma, always hiding in plain sight, he's living the seemingly perfect life, his career is coasting along, professionally he's at the top of his game, but his personal life is non existent, there's no one to come home to, no one to share his life with, and on the surface he's not even concerned about it. He's content. 

Savvy has had a long run of bad luck, growing up without a loving home, from destructive toxic relationship to the next, constantly singling out men who mistreat and hurt her, Savvy has never had any reason to believe in happy ever afters. She's witnessed her friends find it, but see's her own HEA as a far off dream, things like that couldn't possibly happen for her. 

There's a lot of heart in this story, Savvy is the kind of heroine you instantly want to cheer for, she's never expected much for herself because she's never really experienced what unconditional love is. Falling into Aiden's arms was single handedly the most unexpected and ultimately biggest moment of her life. Annalisa Nicole never fails to grab me by the heart strings, demanding my attention and willing me to feel for her beautifully broken and often flawed characters. The final book in the series left me feeling sated and content, the Wellington family feels real to me, I've watched their lives change, watched their family grow,  seen them all shaped by both joy and tragedy. Their stories touching my heart in a way very few do. 

Author Bio:

I am an “Indie” contemporary romance author. I live in California with my husband and two teenage boys. I absolutely love being a stay at home mom.
I never liked reading as a kid. I only started reading romance novels in the past few years. My Kindle and I are inseparable now. A thought occurred to me in December of 2012 that maybe I could write a romance novel. So I went to work with the encouragement of my husband and my sister-in-law. It didn’t take long to figure out that I really enjoy writing.
Today I am a self-published author and it has been an amazing journey.
