It doesn't take too long to realize that we struggle with loving like Jesus loved. Where he is patient we are not. Where his compassion overflows our egos are offended. We know the great love our Jesus has for us and yet we find it difficult to pour out that same love on others. Marriage, where love should abound, often feels more like battleground where wounds are inflicted and superficially treated and we wonder if tomorrow will provide a reprieve. In Love Notes we are reminded that unless we really understand what it means to be loved by a faithful God we will never be able to love others well. In a conversational style that leaves you feeling Ryan is sitting right next to you Love Notes takes you on a journey of honest examination and spiritual growth. Conviction is followed up with hope as you come to the place where you recognize that God's love for you will enable you to love well.

Some stories should never be told. Others have to be—it’s the only way. Since moving back to my hometown of Hastings, Texas, I’ve been called a whore, tramp, and homewrecker. And maybe I’m all of those things and more. But those people don’t know me. They don’t see me. They only see my mistakes. My little brother is my entire world, and if I can give him what I never had—love and security—then returning to the town that hates me will be worth it. I’m prepared for the whispers and stares, but the moment a knight in a black truck crosses my path, it’s clear that I’m not ready for kindness. As he, my brother’s sexy teacher, and the town’s golden boy work to break down my walls by standing between me and the hate, I find myself beginning to hope again. Maybe redemption is within reach...if I share my story. **Love Notes is a series of interconnected, reverse harem standalone novels. Though cheating is a theme throughout Scarlett XOXO, there is no cheating between the main characters.
