The next in USA Today bestselling author Darcy Burke's sexy and emotional family saga about seven siblings who reunite in a small Oregon town to fulfill their brother's dying wish…

Years ago, golden boy Kyle Archer left Ribbon Ridge without a word. Now, with heartbreak on the verge of tearing his family apart, the black sheep is back, and he's determined to regain their trust by uncovering the truth behind Alex's death. But the moment he confronts Maggie Trent—the therapist his parents blame for the tragedy—Kyle is stunned by his powerful attraction to the beautiful doctor … and drawn to her like no woman he's ever met before.

When gorgeous, charismatic Kyle approaches Maggie about his brother's death, she agrees to help him search for answers. And as they piece together Alex's last days, their undeniable chemistry turns too hot to ignore. After their relationship becomes more serious than either anticipated, Kyle may be forced to choose between the woman he's desperate to hold on to and the family he almost let slip away.

Wow love Kyle, looking forward to meeting the rest of the group.

I hope you have already read the first book with me.

In this book we learn what made Kyle leave for years. We, also got a few more secrets out-of-the-way involving Alex. Some questions were answered but, toward the end of the book more questions arose for me and I am looking to get to the bottom of them. I am glad the next book will hopefully answer some of them since they are about the person the book is about.

Kyle wanted to blame who ever he could about Alex but, when he went to he one person that was supposed to be helping him to get answers he never knew that he would be attracted to her. he agreed to help him find answers and along that journey they found themselves. She helped Kyle fight demons that he had been battling and he helped her fight some too.

I don't want to give too much away because I like for you to find these things out for yourself and not have them told to you.

Maggie also comes to terms with her job and what she should do.

I know I am not giving a lot away but I really do think you should read this series. You will have more questions at the end of each book about someone who is not the main character but I am sure they will get answered in the book they are supposed to. So go and get your copy today and join me on watching these siblings fight their battles and find love.

Thanks for reading my review.

Until Next Time: Happy Reading.

4.25 stars-emotional series

Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2015

NOTE: If you have NOT read the previously two storylines, there may be some spoilers.

REVIEW: 4.25 stars--YOURS TO HOLD is the second full length installment in Darcy Burke’s contemporary adult Ribbon Ridge romance series focusing on the Archer family sextuplets (Evan, Sara, Alex, Tori, Kyle & Liam) of Ribbon Ridge and their younger brother Hayden. This is chef and Archer family black sheep Kyle Archer, and therapist Maggie Trent’s storyline. The Archer family owns several successful breweries and pubs, and most of the siblings play a role in the daily business operations. YOURS TO HOLD takes place a few months after the events of books 1-Only in My Dreams-as the family begins preparations for Derek and Chloe’s wedding and rebuilding the old Monastery left to the siblings in Alex’s will. Derek is the Archer family’s ‘adopted’ son. The series should be read in order as each timeline follows on the events of the previous book.

Told from alternating third person perspectives, the storyline follows Kyle’s investigation into his brother Alex’s suicide and the first person he is going to confront is Alex’s therapist Maggie Trent. Maggie closed up practice and moved out of town within days of Alex’s death, and Kyle is determined to place blame directly on Maggie’s lap. What ensues is a building relationship between Kyle and Maggie as they begin a search for the person responsible for supplying Alex with a means to end his life. But Kyle has a secret of his own; one that has caused a major tear in the family and sent Kyle in search of a new start in life. After a four year absence Kyle’s returns comes with accusations and family tension, and yet he is still unwilling to reveal the truth behind the reason he left.

The relationship between Kyle and Maggie begins acrimoniously as Kyle is determined to blame Maggie and find fault with her therapy methods. His need to uncover the truth behind his brother’s death finds our hero at continuous odds with both Maggie and his family. As their relationship turns sexual, Kyle is reluctant to reveal her true identity to the family knowing that her presence in their lives will only cause more heartache and blame. The $ex scenes are seductive, provocative and emotional; Maggie is caught between professional ethics and a relationship with Kyle Archer.

The entire Archer family is present as they prepare for the upcoming nuptials of Derek and Chloe, although family matriarch Emily Archer remains in France with her youngest child Hayden. The family dynamics are stressful and heartbreaking; there are a number of emotional, physical and mental issues the family continuously endures- most likely due to the early birth of the sextuplets. In this, there is plenty of anxiety and problematic scenarios addressed throughout the series. The Archer’s are a once close-knit family whose secrets are slowly revealing-one child at a time.

YOURS TO HOLD is an emotional storyline. Before his death, Alex Archer wrote a letter to each family member, in the hopes that lessons learned will begin to heal their broken hearts. Kyle received his letter following his admission and reconciliation with his father. Each letter is heartbreaking, tear inducing and painfully honest; there is an intimacy between siblings in death that was never there in life.

Darcy Burke will astonish you with her remarkable and realistic look at the dysfunctional family dynamics of the Archers of Ribbon Ridge. There are moments of incredible family love and support followed by accusations, jealousy and intense pain. The RIBBON RIDGE series is passionate and addicting; Darcy Burke will pull you into a world of emotional highs and lows. You will want to return to Ribbon Ridge again and again.

Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2015

Continuing in the Ribbon Ridge Series by Darcy Burke, YOURS TO HOLD is another sexy and warm story about another one of the Archer Sextuplets. We find Kyle Archer has returned home after his long disappearance away from his family, only returning once after the death of his brother Eric. Kyle has been frequently mentioned in the previous two stories of Ribbon Ridge but here is his own book in which we find out his long held secrets. Maggie Trent also mentioned as the therapist of their deceased brother becomes front and center along with Kyle as he deceitfully enters into her office looking for answers. Any icy meeting at best later turns into a partnership both trying to find the person responsible for giving Eric the pills he used to end his life.
Both Kyle and Maggie have prior issues which need resolving and they find each one helping the other out. Unfortunately feelings for each other are growing stronger much to their dismay. Kyle starting to see Maggie on a personal level is the last thing the Archer family would want to see happen as they blame Maggie for Eric’s death.
All the Archer family again is involved in this story of family devotion and love. We continue to see the main characters from the prior books continue on with their lives which I am thrilled about. No one ever wants to say good bye to characters that they have learned to love!
I would suggest reading the books in order to best understand the characters, but each book would be successful on their own as Darcy fills in the blanks nicely.

Oh my Kyle Archer

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2015

Oh Kyle Archer, the bad boy of the family. Now that he's back and staying, he wants to earn the respect back of the family. The only thing he can think of is finding out who gave Alex the drugs to kill himself with. On a mission he meets Alex's therapist to find answers, only she doesn't know and they both are attracted to each other. On the hunt to find answers they find they have a lot of great chemistry and are in this awkward relationship. They both are great for each other but with tension high as things unfold, can Kyle finally own up to his past and tell the truth. Not only about himself but Maggie, who not only did he first blame but the family still does. With a great deal about his addiction and Maggie's own internal struggles, this story helps touch base that life is not always easy especially when dealing with addiction. Darcy did an incredible job with this story and these characters! I so loved this story and the journey. I can't wait for more of the Archer family!

Brilliant read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 26, 2015

Kyle is my favourite so far. He brings out the mother in me. Kyle and Maggie are a match even if it does not seem so at the start. He wants to make amends to all his family without them realising what he has been through. He has great character and is very lovable beneath that hard exterior he portrays. Loved this book from start to finish.
