Every Little Piece of Me is a sexy, standalone second-chance romance in the all-new Orchid Valley series.
Every Little Piece of Me by New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Lexi Ryan, is live!
It’s not every day you get invited to your wife’s wedding to another man...as a guest.
The first time I saw Brinley Knox, she was crying, draped in a ridiculous pink tulle dress for her sweet sixteen party, and cursing the boy who’d broken her heart.
I was the hired help, a teenage charity case.
She was the daughter of the wealthiest family in Orchid Valley.
I knew a girl like Brinley was off-limits for a guy like me. That didn’t stop me from kissing her. Or from promising that if she were ever mine, I’d never let her go.
The last time I saw Brinley, she was sleeping, tangled in the sheets of my Vegas penthouse, my diamond glittering on her left ring finger.
I returned three hours later to an empty bed, the ring on the dresser, and a goodbye note.
We haven’t spoken in the six months since, but I’m not the kind of guy who’d file for a divorce he doesn’t want.
Until I got this damn invitation, it never occurred to me that Brinley didn’t remember our impulsive Vegas nuptials.
It’s time to return to Orchid Valley and remind the bride-to-be that I’m a man who keeps his promises.

Excerpt:
Every Little Piece of Me, excerpt © 2020 by Lexi Ryan
I run the water cold and brace myself on the sink.
Everything is okay. This is just one moment. Inhale and exhale, and move your way through it.
Once my breathing evens out, I splash cold water on my face and blot it dry with a paper towel. I’m definitely overreacting. There are a thousand reasons he could be in town and want to talk to me alone. Thousands of reasons that don’t begin with the words “You’re the love of my life. Please don’t marry anyone else.”
Because I’m almost positive I don’t want to hear those words. Mostly.
When I step out of the bathroom, Marston is waiting there, leaning against the wall across from the ladies’ room, arms folded, jaw twitching with aggravation. The picture of tall, dark, and pissed off.
When Marston sets his mind to something, he gets it, and tonight, apparently that something is talking to me alone.
“Sorry.” I smooth down my pencil skirt. “That vodka didn’t sit right.” I turn toward the main room.
He catches me around the waist and spins me so fast that I’m trapped between the wall and him before I can blink. “Give me one minute.” He braces his hands above my head and leans forward.
I swallow hard. Not because I’m scared. Marston’s never scared me. But looking up at him when he’s this close is stirring up all kinds of memories. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to look at him without part of me wishing for the future I longed for at sixteen. I place a firm hand on his chest. “I don’t think this is a good idea.”
“Was Vegas a joke to you?”
Of all the questions I expected him to ask, that wasn’t anywhere on the list. “What? Of course not. Vegas was . . .” Hot. Impulsive. Crazy. Amazing. Wild . . . everything.
He dips his head until his lips hover right above mine. “Don’t you dare call it a mistake,” he growls, his warm breath tickling my skin.
I ache to close the distance between our mouths, ache to feel his kiss again. I’d never call Vegas a mistake. Maybe I should, but I can’t.
“Fuck, you smell so good. I couldn’t get the smell of you out of my mind for weeks after you left me that damn note. Do you know how crazy that made me?”
My hand is still against his chest. If I pushed, he’d back off. He’d give me the space to clear my head. But when he shifts his mouth from above mine to my ear, I don’t want to push him away. I want to pull him back. “Marston—”
“Is this why you sent me that invitation? Did you want me to come here and remind you what it’s like between us? How it feels when we’re close?” In a breath, he has me pinned against the wall again, and his mouth crushes against mine.
Fireworks explode in my stomach. All at once, the floor is falling out from under me and I’m floating.
The kiss doesn’t last long—I don’t let it. I tear my mouth away before it can swallow me whole.
I shove him back, my lips tingling. “You can’t do that.” The kiss was everything I remembered, everything that’s missing when I kiss Julian. Everything I’ve been trying to convince myself I don’t need.
I'm honestly not to sure how to convey the myriad of emotions as I read Brinley and Marston’s beautiful story! This book gave me all the feels!
I loved that Brinley tried to be independent and who wouldn’t want to be, considering the way her family are!Marston, what a wonderful man! Yes he had struggles but he rose above and made something of himself and the part of him thats missing, he’s hoping to find again!
This book sent me through the ringer! I loathed the way some of the characters behaved towards Brinley but I genuinely loved the way her friends had her back!
Truly this story will send you on a bumpy ride and I honestly wondered if there would be an ending that made me hopeful! Well you will have to read it for yourself to find out! The banter, sizzling chemistry, heartfelt moments and inspirational words made this such a wonderful romance!!

I know this is hard to believe, but Lexi Ryan is a relatively new author to me I cannot understand how that could be. From start to finish, I was captivated by the story that she wove, drawn in, I had a hard time putting this one down when real life got in the way.
I absolutely loved the continuation of Brinley Knox and Marston Rowe’s story. Although this can most definitely be read as a stand alone, I would recommend you one click Every Little Promise as it gives you the history of their relationship before reading this book.
I was fully invested in the story that Ms. Ryan told and fell hard and fast for both of them. This is one of those books that was a wonderful read and left me with a smile on my face. Brinley and Marston’s road to a happily ever after is rocky to say the least, particularly since it would appear that Brinley is unaware that the have been married for the last couple of years. This led to some humorous interactions . I loved the friendship between Brinley and her friends and is was great to see how much they had her back.
The chemistry between them was just as intense as previously and I was cheering for them to make it as a couple.

Lexi Ryan is relatively new to me and after reading Every Little Piece of Me I’m struggling to understand why I haven’t read more by her. This story drew me in from the first page and it didn’t let me go until I had read the final word. I struggled to put this book down even though sleep was calling so please make sure you have time on your hands before you start this one.
This is Brinley Knox and Marston Rowe’s story and it’s book one in the Orchid Valley Series, Brinley and Marston’s road to happiness is a bit bumpy and there are a few twists and turns this couple need to negotiate along the way. The friendship this couple share is very special but what Brinley didn’t expect to hear was she had been married to her best friend for a couple of years ..........
Fate works in mysterious ways and sometimes you are just meant to be together and that’s what fate has in mind for this couple. The chemistry is intense and sizzling, the witty banter flows and at times is very funny but it’s the friendship and the loyalty that this couple share that makes this an exceptional read so I urge you all to one click this gem. Looking forward to book 2 in the series.
