WOW!! I can't believe I have read this book five times and haven't actually written a review. Shame on me!! This author deserves a great big THANK YOU for writing such a wonderful book. It just gets better and better every time I read it. The main characters are fantastic. I drool over Brody every time I open one of the stories. YAY Me!! There is more than one story that allows for Brody obsession. Kacie is a little damaged. Don't get me wrong I totally get why. Lucky for us, Brody meets her and makes it his life mission to make her world better. That man is a miracle worker.
Add in the Twinkies, Piper and Lucy, and all is well in the book world of Cranberry Inn. Kacie has been a single mom for almost five years. She is over protective and cautious. Watching her walls slowly crumble was wonderful.
And because I have a mean streak, let me tell you, loved, LOVED IT when Blaire Witch got what she deserved. Want to know what happened? Grab the book, dive in, devour and fall in love with Brody, Kacie, and the rest of the great characters at Cranberry Inn.

emotional
hopeful
lighthearted
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Five Twinkie loving, puddle jumping stars!
I honestly don’t think I could love this book more. Between Brody, The Inn & Piper & Lucy I was hooked.
I can’t wait to read more and more about all of these amazing characters. I now know that Viper & Andy get their own stories, which I’m so happy about and can’t wait to read.

I really enjoyed this book. I knew exactly what was going to happen all the way to the last predictable sentence, but I still enjoyed it. Fast, light read, will look for more. Read it based on rec from one of my FAV authors Colleen Hoover, I guess she can pick great books as well as she writes the ;-)

I really enjoyed this story.
Kacie and Brody’s story was fun, sexy, beautiful, and (at times) heartbreaking.
Of course, Lucy and Piper were entertaining - as was Fred.
Drama, cattiness, love and playfulness were also part of the story.
Carly did a fabulous job with narration and once I got used to Will’s cadence, I enjoyed his as well.
I’m very much looking forward to reading the next book.

I really liked the story but I am not giving it a solid 5 stars review because I didn't enjoy the main character's inner voice, she was kind of irritating at times.
It made me feel very emotional when, towards the end, sth big happenned to one of the girls, I guess that being a mom myself made me feel closer to the story and I could feel her pain...
All in all, it was a surprisingly enjoyable story, one gem among dull rocks, the writing and the editing were good too which is sth to be mentioned because nowadays, even hot shot authors are publishing without being thorough.

Room for You was a cute read. Kacie, Brody and the twinkies (Brodies adorable nickname for Kacie's twin daughters) were cute together even if Kacie was a bit much at times.
Kacie is one of those girls who is so afraid of getting hurt again she just keeps everything structured and simple. Her father left her when she was younger, and she blames herself. Then her first boyfriend was horrible, treated her not so good, but knocked her up and then left her as well. She tried really hard to make it work with her girls' dad, Zach, but I am not sure why. When you see what Zack was like those girls are probably way better off without him. She is one of those people who is like even though Zach is horrible and treats me like dirt, will probably treat our children horribly, I want to try and make it work so they will have a father. That drives me crazy as is a horrible father really better than no father figure? So ever since Zach Kacie has not even considered having a relationship with someone else. First her father left, then Zach, so she can't trust men. They will always leave.
When a storm strands Brody, a famous hockey player, at Kacie's inn things heat up between them. Brody knows there is something there between them, that there could be something good with Kacie, and he doesn't care that they live in different towns or that his hockey schedule could make it difficult to see each other. He knows she is worth it. And her two daughters who are adorable. He falls for them all. Only Kacie doesn't want to let him in. She is so judgemental in the beginning it is crazy. She finds out he is a famous hockey player and is just like well....that is never going to happen. His type of lifestyle will never fit in with hers. She just keeps trying to push him away, but he keeps trying to get her to let loose a little bit. To have some fun once and a while. What will her daughters learn from her if she is always so strictly structured? Kacie really could use Brody in her life. He really makes her take a step outside her comfort zone and see that everything doesn't have to fall apart just because you relax for a minute.
Of course there is a bit of back and forth between them. And some mean girls who Kacie just believes because she is not very self confident. But things work out in the end. Only there is a second book and that epilogue...While I did enjoy this book, even when Kacie was being frustrating, I am not sure that I want to read book two. I am not sure I could handle where it might go. I could be way off, but Kacie has never made good decisions which worries me with book two. Through this book she has tried to hold onto horrible people and situations while trying to push away the good. I just don't want to go back to square one again. We shall see how it goes. It might surprise me and be better than I am expecting.
