This is a great story, one of forgiveness, support, trust and love。 This is Travis and Poppy’s story and it’s just wonderful。 Realistic and relatable characters with realistic and relatable problems as they try to navigate their way on this incredible journey。 I love that we get to catch up with old friends and family in this heartwarming and emotional romance and the author does an incredible job of drawing you into this small town so much so that you don’t want to leave。

Another great story of healing, forgiveness and restoration。 As Travis and Poppy navigate their individual insecurities to find love, they are supported and encouraged by the Hammond family and those who have become a family on their farm。 Poppy has been self-sufficient since her son was born and has a hard time accepting help from anyone。 Travis just wants to be needed and to make her life easier, but she resists。 I love that we get to see the continuing stories of Hunter and Molly and Matt and Another great story of healing, forgiveness and restoration。 As Travis and Poppy navigate their individual insecurities to find love, they are supported and encouraged by the Hammond family and those who have become a family on their farm。 Poppy has been self-sufficient since her son was born and has a hard time accepting help from anyone。 Travis just wants to be needed and to make her life easier, but she resists。 I love that we get to see the continuing stories of Hunter and Molly and Matt and Boone Whettstein's families。 No one writes wedding scenes like Liz。 I look forward to Michael and Gerty's story。 。。。more

Great Series! The relationship between Poppy and Travis started out strained when he paid her mortgage—without asking her first。 But he really likes Poppy, her work ethic, her dedication to her son, everything about her。 He had the means to help and did。 Of course Poppy was furious。 So Travis tries a community wide speed dating event and meets up with Poppy again。 They really like each other but Poppy is so independent she has a hard time letting anyone help in any way。 You will love the way Liz Great Series!

I LOVED Travis and Poppy's story!! She was a bit of a frustrating heroine at times, but I still liked her。 Travis is wonderful, and I LOVED that we got to visit old friends in this book, and you would enjoy this book more if you read the other Coral Canyon books, but it is not a requirement。 They are all so wonderful though!!

Alison Ramsay,
Poppy is an independent single mom who does not like unsolicited help as she cannot trust others。 Travis wants to be wanted and needed and he enjoys helping Poppy。 I liked how they both tried to accommodate the other’s views and loved Dorothy and the interactions with her。 It’s always nice to catch up with the Hammond family also。 Once again the author has created an enjoyable story with several strands and hints for further books。I received an ARC of this book but voluntarily leave this review。 Poppy is an independent single mom who does not like unsolicited help as she cannot trust others。 Travis wants to be wanted and needed and he enjoys helping Poppy。 I liked how they both tried to accommodate the other’s views and loved Dorothy and the interactions with her。 It’s always nice to catch up with the Hammond family also。 Once again the author has created an enjoyable story with several strands and hints for further books。I received an ARC of this book but voluntarily leave this review。 。。。more
Lynette,
I love all of Liz Isaacson’s books! His Fourth Date is no exception, and I loved Travis and Poppy’s story while catching up with the Hammond family。 This works as a standalone, but would be enjoyed even more if the series is read in order。 I love that Liz writes multidimensional characters with realistic problems that aren’t resolved too quickly。 This is a wonderful, heartwarming, and enjoyable story that I highly recommend。
Tracy Doig,
I really enjoyed this story and its amazing characters。 This story has patience, hope, love and faith as Travis and Poppy go through life’s ups and downs。 I love reading these clean romances。

Poppy was a single mom living on her ranch next door to the Hammond ranch。 No matter how hard she worked, there just wasn’t enough of her to go around and keep everything up。 Travis was retired from his prosperous job as an NYC investment banker in favor of living a different kind of life as a ranch hand with the Hammonds。 When he learned Poppy was unable to pay her mortgage and might lose her farm, he secretly paid it for her。 And she was furious when she found out。 Months later these two unlik Poppy was a single mom living on her ranch next door to the Hammond ranch。 No matter how hard she worked, there just wasn’t enough of her to go around and keep everything up。 Travis was retired from his prosperous job as an NYC investment banker in favor of living a different kind of life as a ranch hand with the Hammonds。 When he learned Poppy was unable to pay her mortgage and might lose her farm, he secretly paid it for her。 And she was furious when she found out。 Months later these two unlikely people hit it off when they attended a speed dating event。 There was an attraction but will it be enough to help them with their issues of Poppy’s pride and Travis’ need to protect and provide for her and her son? It wasn’t easy but what’s the fun in easy? I loved this new installment in the Ivory Peaks series。 The author focused on one couple but there were lots of updates about characters from earlier books。 This book can be enjoyed as a standalone but I recommend you start at the beginning to fully enjoy reading it。 I received an ARC and this voluntary review contains my honest opinions。 。。。more
Sandra Hartzel,
I had an ARC for this book, but this is my voluntary and honest opinion。 Cowboy Travis Thatcher is interested in neighbor Poppy Harris, but she doesn’t want his help with her farm, her goats, or her son。 When they meet at a speed dating event, they leave with each other。 The plot involves issues of trust, accepting help from others, and allowing others into your life。 Another interesting and uplifting book by Liz Isaacson。

It's been a while since I visited the Coral Canyon books, but it was great to read the "next" instalment, "next" generation。 I really enjoy the continuity of the characters from her other series, and seeing how the families change over time。 I enjoy stories that tackle the day to day of family and life, and this touches on that。 It's not just about the fairytale HEA。 With that said, each book is stand alone to the main characters (i。e。 there is closure on the main story line, and a satisfying en It's been a while since I visited the Coral Canyon books, but it was great to read the "next" instalment, "next" generation。 I really enjoy the continuity of the characters from her other series, and seeing how the families change over time。 I enjoy stories that tackle the day to day of family and life, and this touches on that。 It's not just about the fairytale HEA。 With that said, each book is stand alone to the main characters (i。e。 there is closure on the main story line, and a satisfying end to the story), it will help to have read previous books to get some context but it isn't absolutely necessary。 The author writes from multiple POV, not just the main two characters, oh how I really like this。 It's great to get a front row seat to how the others around them are experiencing the same things。 I wish more authors would write like this! I really enjoyed the slow pace to Travis and Poppy's relationship, their humour, reacting/responding to each other in an "adult" manner, as well as great family relationships they strive to maintain。 A wonderful all round clean romance (of the squeaky clean kind!)。 * I received an ARC copy of the book for an honest review。 。。。more

A sweet and heartwarming romance。。 I really liked it。。 Heartfelt, funny, and emotional。。 Lovely characters and storyline。。
Mindy Clayton,
Travis and Poppy have their own path to travel to happily ever after。 The attraction is almost immediate, but getting past their own hang ups takes some time。 I really enjoy the characters that Liz writes and how she weaves all the characters from the previous books in and out of the story so that we know what is going in their lives still。
