** Book Review ** RISKING IT ALL by Christi Barth

Risking It All

3 1/2 STARS!

A fun, sexy read!  I had a really hard time getting into this book, but once it picked up, I really enjoyed it!  Fun characters!

Griffin Montgomery is a Coast Guard search and rescue pilot and he absolutely loves his job.  There’s nothing he likes better than helping people.  He puts it all out there and pulls off some very risky rescues.  Like the one that just got him grounded and on leave!  He doesn’t know what to do with himself if he can’t fly, so he’s milling around town and meets the lovely Chloe Widmore at the local coffee shop.

Chloe leads a quiet life.  As a professional letter writer, she can work anywhere, and loves to come out to the coffee shop on a regular basis to have the bustle of people around her while she works on her letters.  It’s her lucky day when she meets hot, flirty Griffin!

Griffin is a daredevil, bonded to his group of best friends who are like brothers to him that he writes the “Naked Men” blog with.  Chloe is a creature of habit and pattern.  They each have a memorable moment in their past that has helped carve them into who they are today … will these two people that are quite different actually be able to make a relationship work?

** Book Review ** THE RANCHER’S ONE-WEEK WIFE by Kathie DeNosky

The Rancher's One-Week Wife

5 STARS!

A fun read that flows nicely and keeps you wanting more!  One of those relationships that happened too fast to be utterly believable, but they work so well together that you enjoy it regardless!

Sexy rodeo champ Blake Hartwell is quite the catch, but Karly Ewing is planning to throw him back in!

Blake and Karly had a whirlwind romance that led to them having a quickie wedding in Vegas!  Happily-ever-after was wanted by all, but Karly got cold feet and ended it.  Now she’s hunting Blake down to get his signature on divorce papers.

When a delay keeps her stranded on his ranch longer than she planned, will it give Blake time to figure out why she threw them away all those months ago?  And when Karly finds out the secrets Blake has been hiding, will it be an even bigger set-back?

** Book Review ** TEMPTING NASHVILLE’S CELEBRITY DOC by Amy Ruttan

Tempting Nashville's Celebrity Doc

5 STARS!

Really enjoyed this country tale!  With a huge fondness for Nashville and country music in my heart, I related with this story immediately!  It was sweet watching the love that still exists show through, climactic as we watch them try to save patient lives when time is of the essence, and emotional to see what an impact family or lack-there-of can have on a life.

Renowned from afar, Neurosurgeon Vivian Maguire has no choice but to return home to Nashville for personal reasons.  She left this town and it’s memories behind 7 years ago to make a career for herself.  She doesn’t expect to find the man she left behind still working at their hometown hospital.

Famed Neurosurgeon to the stars, Reece Castle can’t believe his eyes when the woman who crushed his heart all those years ago walks back into his hospital.  They both have a past they don’t like to share, and demons left to fight … can there still be a future left for them or just bittersweet memories?
