I loved this so much! Getting Real was funny, sexy, and sweet with the perfect mix of emotion blended in. I loved watching Connor and Violet fall in love and the flirting and playfulness between them. I really liked all the characters involved and seeing old favorites. This story felt like coming home, it was incredibly entertaining and heartfelt!
I loved both Connor and Violet. I liked them really getting to know each other and seeing the spark between them come alive. They had great chemistry. This was filled with so many fun, charming moments that had me laughing out loud. There might have been some mistakes on Connor's part that had me cracking up. I liked how sweet and easy their relationship was. I liked them opening up, when things heat up, and feelings come into play. There is an age gap but I felt it was a non-issue.
I flew through this story. I thought it moved at a great pace, I loved the development and the dual POVs. I loved the timeline of Connor and Violet’s relationship, it made for an excellent build. There was a bit of drama and angst blended in but it wasn't too stressful, it added just the right amount of tension. I loved the humor Connor’s boys brought to the story and I enjoyed the bonds Violet was forming with them. I also loved seeing Garrett and Dean and their wives from the first two books, as well as Connor’s other brothers. When they all get together, things can get crazy in the best way.
This was just a fantastic story filled with wonderful moments, passion, and heart and I loved every second. This is the type of story that made me feel all kinds of squishy and warm and happy. I smiled my way through!

4.5 STARS!
4.5 Stars!"You are my real life. I love you, Violet. I'm so in love with you, I can't even see straight."There is something about this author's words that I just adore. That and a single dad trope with a hero who's an ER doctor and a clumsy heroine with some unrequited love and sign me up!!Truth be told, I did a combo read and listen on this one, because when I saw that the narrators of the audio book were Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber well...I just cannot resist word porn of those epic proportions, okay?!I highly recommend doing the same. This was a perfect audio listen.The story is low to medium angst about a single/ recently divorced dad of three boys who's an ER doctor. Once day he stumbles (literally) into one of the clumsy nurses who works with him who's also been harboring a crush on him for some time and they just start to connect more and more from there.There's also an ago gap trope here. She's 30 and he's 42, which is what made Connor hesitate when it came to Violet for as long as he did . But little did he know...he had noting to worry about.The book had some VERY sexy scenes in true Emma Chase fashion. Girlfriend still writes the best male POV out there. And I loved how the medical details were accurate. It's obvious she did her research.Something I also really appreciated about this story is that the author didn't go for the easy, let's vilify the ex-wife trope...something I am so sick of reading in romance books. I loved how these women worked to have a relationship. It was so refreshing to read.This was just fun read and a treat between some of my heavier reads lately. I have not yet read the rest of this series, though it's been on my TBR for ages now, but the book stood well as a stand alone.I'm wondering if there's some second gen stories coming in this series next with Connor's boys and if there is, I am here for it!!I will always be here to read anything from this author.
