Nov 24, Paramita's Bookshelf rated it it was amazing. This story has everything to make you fall in love with Gray and Drew! This story is emotional. This story is passionate. This story talks about losing the love and finding it again after a difficult journey. The author touched my heart deeply with this story. Drew is the baby sister of Gray's best friend. This is not the only reason she is off limits. So called difference in social position separates them. But Gray has deep and honest feelings for Drew which they just can't ignore.
When Gray leaves for Army he promised to come back and make Drew his. But promises take a back seat when Gray comes back with a traumatic experience and self imposed burden of guilt about his best friend's death. Drew is struggling with her own life but all she needs is Gray.
But it won't be easy. Will Gray defeat his own demons and keep his promise? Will they both be strong for each other? The author will take you a breath taking journey! Tia Louise has so beautifully written this dual POV story. To fully understand the trauma and suffering of Gray, it was necessary.
And I loved every moment of it. She perfectly portrayed the pain, the longing, the suffering, the push and pull.

Janette MR Oh I must read!! Dec 12, Paramita's Bookshelf Janette MR wrote: Dec 11, KAS rated it liked it. From the time I was a little girl, when you saved me. You dried my tears. You looked out for me. Her father tells him under no circumstances is he to ever put a hand on his little girl. Basically telling the guy he will never amount to anything.
The guy is determined to prove her 3. The guy is determined to prove her father wrong. The guy is Gray. The girl he falls for is Drew. While their chemistry is smoking hot, circumstances keep them apart, when all they want is to be together. I live for emotional roller coaster rides and great angst in my romances. Although this is my first read by this author, I think she was trying to achieve those goals, but both fell a bit short for me.
I must say, the world would be a much better place with more good guys like Gray in it. I am in the minority camp as far as ratings, but all in all, a decent romantic read ; View all 56 comments. I'm in need of a good romance this month! I'll go see if its on my tbr now. Nov 28, Tara -Sexy Book Divas rated it it was amazing.
Tia Louise does it again! Make You Mine is an incredible story from start to finish. Drew and Gray are full of passion. Their story makes your heart swoon from the start. Drew is the other brothers little sister. Some trauma happens and it has Grayson fighting with himself on what is right and what he should be doing. Not once does Drew ever give up on him or their love. Make You Mine delivers everything you want. Hot, steamy scenes and an amazing love story. Cat Fantastic review xx Dec 11, Shannon Capelle Great review Dec 11, Such an addicting read for me.
This story and the content captivated me from the start. His dedication, how hard he loves, his faithfulness, and mostly his heart. This man was so much to me in this book. Yes he goes through some really hard times, tragic times, but it does not change his heart. I never got enough of him. When do they finally give in to their attractions?
So upon a four year deployment she promises her heart to the man of her dreams. Will he come back whole, or will he not come back together??? A very well done story. View all 16 comments. Jen Super review Jenny! Drew and Gray are full of passion,tension and love.

I stayed up reading this one until 3am View all 7 comments. This book was sweet, and perfect for the mood I was in today. This author's writing is always top notch, and this book was no different. It was well paced. It is told in a dual POV format. The plot was engaging. The angst wasn't over the top, but there was a bit. There was a smidge of OW drama. Neither slept with other people while they were apart. That said, it is mentioned the hero tried to date once, and it was a "disaster," and the heroine goe This book was sweet, and perfect for the mood I was in today.
That said, it is mentioned the hero tried to date once, and it was a "disaster," and the heroine goes on a date when the hero comes back, but the hero shows up in the middle of it. It had a fantastic cast of secondary characters. She made me laugh my butt off, and I can't wait to read her book! I also think Ralph and his almond obsessed ass needs an HEA lol.
Make You Mine (High Valley song) - Wikipedia
Both Gray and Drew were very likable main characters. Last, it was all wrapped up in a lovely ending. So why not 5-Stars? I felt like Drew did all the work trying to keep the relationship going. She was the one always pursuing Gray. Always trying to convince Gray. Always waiting around for Gray. I get the guy was dealing with stuff, but after the second view spoiler [ disappearing act where he ghosted her AGAIN, this time for six weeks hide spoiler ] , he should have had to work a little to get back into her good graces. Instead, she just took him right back. So yeah, that annoyed me enough that it lowered my rating a bit.
Overall though, this was a fantastic read, and I enjoyed it a lot!

Well Tia Louise you really had me in the palm of your hand with this one, I was an emotional wreck, breaking me to pieces with your magical words. My heart literally broke, for Gray and Drew leaving the shards scattered like pieces of a jigsaw. Only to be fitted back together piece by piece with every chapter I read. Slotting them back into place making it whole again. Tia is the Queen of the small town Romance, she always creates these great little towns and endearing characters that live there.
I adored being whisked away into this town and experiencing the beautiful Romance of Gray and Drew. This is such a heart wrenching and wonderful story about a Love between two people that never wanes, despite the difference in social status, parental disapproval, distance, war, PTSD, tragedy, loss and grief. This book is just Perfection, it is one of the best love stories I have read this year, I honestly don't know what else to say, that already hasn't been said by others who have read this book too.
I cannot describe the love I have for Gray and Drew, the ending was purely breathtaking and emotional it gave me so much joy. And I was so happy to learn Ruby, Drews bestie will have her story next year she was hilarious. A spellbinding read that will have you captivated and glued to the pages until the very end, I can't praise this highly enough, Magnificent. Because Tia Louise ruined me for the rest of the world. Nothing else exists, only this book.
No questions about it. It was also one of the most anticipated reads of this year. These two took me on a journey I will never forget. And add the talent Tia Louise has to the mix, and a very special, very flawless cocktail will be served to you. And I just never want to wake up from this book hangover! Drew is the sweetest thing ever created, and Gray is the book boyfriend every girl want in their harems! Make You Mine is a young love, best friend's sister, a military and second-chance romance.
Tia Louise amazes me with all of the emotions this story brought out in me. The pain of survivals guilt is felt and the want of having what should be yours and is only a touch away is heartbreaking. Grayson Cole has been there for his best friends sister since she was four years old and he was eight. He has always been a hero in her eyes and even when tragedy strikes, she never sees him as anything less.
I Make You Mine is a young love, best friend's sister, a military and second-chance romance. It's his guilt, secrets, insecurities, and judgment from others that keeps him from feeling deserving of the one person he wants in his life. His pain tore at my heart. He's so swoon-worthy and everything I love in a possessive alpha male. Drew Harris fell madly deeply in love with her brother's best friend and knew he was all she ever wanted.
By the time she's heading to college, she's Gray's in every way heart, body, and soul. Drew is such a strong character, her loss would break any woman but it's her need to help others that keeps her moving forward. Drew's best friend is hilarious and is the perfect person to see her through all of the tears. Make You Mine is a rollercoaster of an emotional read. It's perfectly written in dual POV. I was able to feel the push and pull of love, loss, disappointment, and heartbreak.
Drew and Gray's chemistry is sizzling but it's their love that made a lasting impression on me. I loved the secondary characters and I can't wait for Ruby and Remi's story. Am I the only one, who finds it deeply disrespectful and disgusting??!!!!! I don't care if this book is safe. I was raised to respect people. My last book this author.
I'd seen this on my newsfeed all over facebook which is my main reason for one clicking this, those teasers sent me straight over to Amazon.. Plus military and childhood friends are two of my reader weaknesses. The only reason why this isn't hitting my 5 star shelf is that I found my concentration waning a bit where my whole focus should've been on the book, it seemed a wee bit drawn out in places but fast paced in others which drew me back into the storyline.
I'm definitely a fan of this authors I'd seen this on my newsfeed all over facebook which is my main reason for one clicking this, those teasers sent me straight over to Amazon.. I'm definitely a fan of this authors and can't wait to see what she brings us next. View all 9 comments. I want to be Drew! I want to know what it feels like to have soo much faith in another person that you can put your life on hold, no matter how long it takes, for them to come back to you because you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are your one and only.
I want to know what it feels like to have someone love you so much that they will set you free because they feel like they are not worthy, on I haven't met a Tia Louise book I haven't liked so it's no surprise that I loved MYM as well! I want to know what it feels like to have someone love you so much that they will set you free because they feel like they are not worthy, only to come back because they just can't live without you. I have been ruined for future relationships. My heart has been broken and put back together all by this one story so be ready for some tears!
There is something about a forbidden romance that gets your heart racing too so be ready for the steam! Tia knows how to take her readers on a joyride! Nov 22, Tania's Book Blog rated it it was amazing. This was such a beautiful, emotional love story that gives all the feels. But they were more alike than expected. They both lost their mothers at a very young age and Drew never looked at Gray like he was below her. In fact, she only had love in her eyes. She never thought this. As time passes you see how their relationship develops and all the ups and downs.
Production Notes from IMDbPro
The tragic stuff that these two experienced is beyond sad but they were there for each other. Your heart will go out to both but especially to Gray. These two loved hard and you will not be reading this one dry eyed. I enjoyed that this book was about them and not focused on any crazy exes. Such a beautiful, beautiful love story. Dec 02, Carvanz rated it it was amazing Shelves: First love and second chances can sometimes be tricky, but holy heck! This author hit it out of the ballpark when it came to creating this story for me. And surely she wrote it just for me because it has everything that makes this trope work in the most fantastic way!
From early childhood they had a connection and even then Gray felt protective of Drew. That connection nev Oh my gosh!!! That connection never dims as the years pass and we are suddenly given a look into the young love of this couple. Also, first kiss and every other first that follows. First check-mark on my list for a perfect read.
During the following years, despite not seeing each other, they remain in contact and yep…still faithful. And this is where my next huge check-mark comes in…both of the hero and heroine remain celibate. Huge check-mark and a definite must buy for those in the Safety Gang. The reunion between Gray and Drew and what follows is filled with a bit of angst, lots of steam due to the sizzling chemistry this couple have, a deep possessiveness from both the hero and heroine, and enough drama to keep it interesting.
And there my friends is another check-mark that is like the icing on the cake. All of this to say, this book is exactly what I look for in a romance.
Make You Mine (High Valley song)
The perfect combinations, the perfect amount of everything I love with nothing being over the top, and the perfect development of characters to sell the story to me. Nov 27, Melissa rated it it was amazing. Wow what a phenomenal story. It was heart-wrenching and the main character had their ups and downs but with the bond that they had they fought through it.
I was rooting for them to pull through because their love never went away. They were just dealt with a bad set of cards. Grayson Cole God he's a man with a heart of gold. He is loyal and of course gorgeous and only have eyes for his best friend sister drew Harris. Drew Harris has gone through so much in her life at such a young age. There's alwa Wow what a phenomenal story. There's always been just one man that has been there for her through it all.
She's been in love with him since she can remember. She's loyal, strong and has a sassy side to her. As their story unfolds you get to see how it all started the love and bond that they share. The loss and battle they face. Gosh I cried so hard and I still feel the pain. Anyways I recommend this book to anyone and everyone. This story just became one of my top favorites. Congratulations Tia Louise on creating such a great story.. PS Ruby was my girl I wish I had a best friend like her.
Can't wait for her book. Dec 02, Sabrina rated it really liked it Shelves: It was sweet and emotional, and brought out so many feelings for Drew and Gray. I was captivated in the story, just waiting for these two to get back together and put their pain behind them. I did think the romance was a little one sided at points, where it felt like Drew was trying much harder than Gray. Overall I liked that she was s determined not to let him get away again but I kept looking for that same determination from Gray.
I did feel the connection between them though and enjoyed it. Overall, this was a great book full of romance and sweetness, with some angst thrown in. I also loved the secondary characters that were featured and I can't wait to them get their own story. ARC kindly provided in exchange for an honest review. View all 8 comments.

Make You Mine
These two were so amazing together. There love was challenged at every turn, but they only had eyes for one another. I loved it so very much! As long as I live. I adored Gray and Drew's emotional second chance at romance. Nov 29, Natalie The Biblioholic rated it liked it Shelves: Grayson Cole and Andrea 'Drew' Harris had loved each other since they were kids. He was her brother's best friend and she was most definitely off limits. But that didn't stop them. As a matter of fact, no one in their small town was going to keep them apart.
They were destined for one another. If only Gray could get out of his own way. I felt for Gray. He joined the military to make something of himself, to prove that he was good enough for Drew. Going to college and achieving honors Grayson Cole and Andrea 'Drew' Harris had loved each other since they were kids. Going to college and achieving honors didn't seem to be enough. So off he went to war with his best friend at his side. But the horrors they faced changed him and his pain and grief were almost insurmountable. With the help of Drew's love and patience and his own determination to find himself back to her, there was no doubt that Gray would be okay.
I've loved many a Tia Louise story. I recommend her work to every book lover I know because she writes everything from royal romance to romantic suspense. I find it very easy to become consumed wiht her words, to live out the events she describes, and to fall in love with her characters and the worlds she creates. Unfortunately, this story won't be added to my favorites list.
It dragged a bit and I found it extremely difficult to pay attention. The heroine was annoying, the plot was a bit too predictable and yet all over the place, and the extra oomph I was looking for was nowhere to be found. But I won't let this deter me. I will still read anything this author puts out because as much as I didn't love this story, I did like it and so far, if this can be categorized as her worst, it ain't half bad.
