Carrie Ann Ryan

Introducing the Wilder Brothers. Six sexy, built, slightly overprotective brothers. Six women who won't back down in order to protect those they love. When the Wilder brothers return home after leaving the military and the lives they fought to build, they'll have to start from scratch and create roots when they had none before. They're moving to a new state, a new town, and with a new set of problems they never expected. Falling in love along the way isn't in the cards, but the Wilder brothers should know by now-you don't choose your fate, fate chooses you.

One Way Back to Me

After all of the Wilder Brothers retire from the military, Eli convinces them to buy a winery in Texas and make it into an event and wedding destination.  After being open for a year, the business has gone through two wedding planners, so Eli resorts to hiring the woman he met and danced with at a wedding years before.  Even though she accepted a wedding proposal from another man at the same wedding, Eli believes that she is the answer to their problems.  Alexis's ex-husband has taken all of her money and run her wedding planning business into the ground, so she is desperate for the job with the Wilder's even though she knows that things will be awkward with Eli, but she hopes to make the best of it.

One Way Back to Me is a romance that is light on substance and character development. The story comes to a satisfying conclusion by the end but not before offering one dimensional characters that are full of cliches and a simple plot with a small amount of suspense. Unfortunately, the most pivotal moment of their first meeting takes place off page before the story even begins. This book does introduce many characters that will most likely be part of future books in the series, but the time spent to establish these backstories takes away from the story of Alexis and Eli. Overall, One Way Back to Me would make an enjoyable category romance but doesn't embody the essence of a mainstream romance.
