Garnet Flats: (The Edens #3)

Talia Eden loved Foster Madden for one year, two months and eleven days. It was on day 438 that her love died. The day he chose to marry her best friend. The day she vowed never to think of Foster again. When I first read the blurb for Garnet Flats, I had the tiniest doubt that this trope would be for me. The ink on his divorce papers is barely dry, yet he comes armed with apologies and promises. She knows it’s all a ploy. Foster is the king of games and secrets. But he’s got delusions the size of Montana if he thinks she’ll help him train for a world championship fight. After a second, I realised this was a Devney Perry book, and no matter what, I trusted that whatever the narrative, I would love it, and I’m extremely happy to tell you I was right, Garnet Flats is the story you didn’t know you needed but you absolutely do! This isn’t your ordinary second chance romance, this is a once in a lifetime love that never died. Foster has some secrets to reveal and a lot of forgiveness to beg for, but when he manages to break through the hard shell of hurt his actions caused, he and Thalia can finally live their happily ever after. Foster is an absolute dream book boyfriend, he made a stupid choice when he was younger, one he never realised would mean losing the only woman he ever loved, but the pain he went through, the man he was then and now, is everything I love about a romance read. I adored Talia too, she was hurt beyond imagine with Foster’s betrayal, more than she even realises until Foster appears in her hometown and six years of anger burst free. She also paid the price for Foster’s bad choices and she doesn’t let him back in, or forgive easily, even when it would be easier to do so. I can’t tell you enough how good this book is. I absolutely love Devney’s Edens series and they’re just getting better and better, plus with the tease at the end, I can feel that’s going to continue with the rest of the Eden siblings.

This book follows the third member of the Eden family - Talia and her second chance Romance with Foster Madden. I loved the setting of Quincy again and the Eden family make this such a lovely place to read about again. Foster moved to the small town and Talia who had her heart broken by him doe not want him to stay. Foster has some secrets that are slowly revealed and he sets out to apologise and win Talia back. It’s take her time to accept and consider what he has to say and when she feels she can move on their passion is once again ignited. A great story with themes of family, betrayal, children and community with some spice and again a great book in this series.

Not my favourite out of the series so far. Loved the first as it was more cowboy romance. But I found this one a little messy and unnecessary drama that didn’t really relate to the story line. The plot was way off the mark for what could have happened. Although I did love the last 20%. Enjoyed the tid bits of the previous books mentioned and the insight into the jasper vale.

Another instalment into the Edens which is in my humble opinion the best interconnected small town series out there. FIGHT ME I DARE YOU! This book we see Talia part of our much loved Eden clan get her shot at romance or should I say her second Chance at it! Foster arrives in town to win back the love of his life and that’s his one and only goal in mind. Talia after suffering a huge heartbreak from Foster seven years ago is now trying to make her way as a doctor in her small town! Oh man this book will rip you to shreds, the angst, the heartbreak, the tension!! It elevated me into the full feels mode and that is my favourite mode to live in while reading. These two are soul mates they have been through a lot and the connection they share is beautiful. We also get to see some pretty top tier grovelling and oh do I love it when a man fights for what he wants! SWOON! Talia and Foster are fantastic and the rest of the Edens as usual! I can’t wait to read the rest of this series!! The writing is everything you want and more and transports you to this beautiful world that you want to live in!

What a rollercoaster! Amazing world building and the stories all throughout were fantastic. The big moments definitely had me hooked.

I will say, im not generally a lover of second chance but my god this one delivered. Foster is next level, top tier book boyfriend and i was here for it. Him and Talia have been through so much and the will they, wont they pulled on my heart strings. This one gave us it all, second chances, forgiveness, spice and swoon worthy moments. I am obsessed with this series!!

I just love the Eden family and I cannot wait to read this one too. I am still in Juniper Hill and I can't wait to see how the rest of the Eden siblings find their love.

Really enjoyed this series, can’t wait to read the rest

I can’t contain myself with her books; eating them up in just a few hours/two days. With every books the story gets livelier; psyched for the next one!

Pure and simple Garnet Flats brought me immense joy. I love this world of The Edens that Devney Perry has created, and Talia & Foster's love story was sexy sweet perfection! Talia Eden is strength and beauty. She had her heart shattered by the only man that has ever owned it and she still found the courage to keep going with her dreams. She is now Doctor Talia Eden working back home in Quincy, Montana and she has her family surrounding her. Life is good even with the struggles of the everyday life. When Foster Madden shows up after seven years Talia knows that the only reason, he can be there is for her. She isn't ready to forgive the man who shattered her heart, and she doesn't know if she ever will. Foster Madden is in Quincy, Montane for one reason: Talia Eden. He knows winning her back after seven years is going to be near impossible, but he is used to the fight. As a champion fighter he is has survived his share of rounds in the ring and Foster knows he will have to go more than one round with Talia to win her back. With Foster comes a slew of secrets that threaten to unravel the very shaky ground Talia and him have started to rebuild. Will their second chance even really begin before the secrets that Foster tried to protect Talia from start to come out or will Foster be left without the only woman he has ever loved? Foster was no saint, he made horribly choices when it came to Talia but the way he showed her how much he loved her it almost made the heartache worth it, almost. With the constant comfort he offered her, as well as slow dances in the kitchen, temple kisses and hot steamy scenes I didn't expect it was no surprise Talia fell for him all over again. The Edens has been my favorite series of Devney Perry's so far and I can't wait to see what else she has in store for us with the rest of Talia's siblings. Especially Mateo.

Second chance romance is one of these tropes I particularly like, therefore I was ecstatic about Garnet Flats. Talia and Foster's story was one filled with heartbreak, but also redemption. I was really curious about this couple since getting a glimpse at them in the Juniper Hill's epilogue. I was easily immersed in this novel full of feels. I enjoyed how we kept going from past to present to gradually learn more about the demise of Talia and Foster's relationship years earlier. Their past was so much more complicated than what it seemed at first. They fell in love so effortlessly and it was clear they shared a special connection. The intrigue and the reasons behind their breakup were a real surprise and made this read so intriguing. Despite the years apart, Foster never ceased to love Talia. He broke his heart at the same time he broke hers. It was nice to see him so determined to win Talia back. In his every action, his love for her was so easy to feel. II enjoyed how Talia had a backbone and made him grovel to win back her affection. Their reunion was intense and full of hurt, but also passion and love. They were truly beautiful! As much as I liked this novel, I felt the flow of the story was a little off, hence the reason I didn't rate it higher. I felt everything really happened in the second half of the book and the first half was dragging at times. Garnet Flats is so worth the read though for all the emotions it packs.

this book make me sob so hard. i cannot describe how much i was protective over talia. so Foster haved to work for both of us, but i was definitely worth it. i love them and in the end i was supper protective over him too, but honestly i wish that didn't take him so long for him to go out for the love of his life. i mean... 7 years its a long time! i also wish that became more clear that he would have donne that even if arlo's was alive. because what if this guy lived for more 10, 15, 20 years? i also not like Viviane not even a little. i think talia should be more hard with her (and foster too). but i love talia and foster and wish a ton of baby for them.

If you want something bad enough you should fight for it, even if you are not sure you can win! The third full book in The Edens, Garnet Flats is a fabulous story of love, loss, and forgiveness. Talia and Foster are well suited and you truly feel like you are on a journey with them, hoping they will find each other again on the other side of the heartbreak. The story is unique and delivered superbly and one I think reader will fall in love with.
