My thoughts:

Roses and Champagne Kisses is the second book in the Heart of the Family series.  This can definitely be read as a stand alone book.  The story take space about a year or so after the events of the first book.  This is Finley and Roan's book. I enjoyed the story.  Roan lost the love of his life to cancer and six years later, he is ready to find someone else to love.  I thought his reaction after he and Finley finally get together was very realistic.  I thought her reaction was a bit over the top.  Finley had to grow on me.  Finley finds out something about herself that looks like it will be explored in later books.  So I look forward to seeing where that goes.  It's a HFN ending, but I liked it.  I recommend the audiobook.  It was an enjoyable way to experience the book.
