Review Round Up ~ February 28

New Releases:


A Highlander in a Pickup (Highland, Georgia, #2)A Highlander in a Pickup by Laura Trentham

My rating: 4 of 5 stars - Would Recommend to a Friend

Review Copy Provided by Publisher via Net Galley

Ms Trentham returns us to Highland, GA for another installment of the Highland Games - this time organized by Buchanan family friend, Anna, and Iain Connors sent from Scotland (by Izzy) to help. This second book in the series takes place one year after the first book and reads as a stand-alone. (Reading book 1 would be helpful for background).

Anna and Iain are both likable characters who are battling a little bit of emotional baggage as they try to pull off the high expectations around the games. I enjoyed seeing them get to know each other and figure out their communication issues.

A well written, semi slow burn romance Highlander in a Pick Up is a fun read with a definite growth element. Ms Trentham does an excellent job of incorporating the elements from book 1 of the series (as well as upcoming characters in the series) into Anna and Iain’s story. This gives loyal readers a glimpse of where characters are now and what may be coming soon.

 Wild, Wild Rake (The Cavensham Heiresses #6)Wild, Wild Rake by Janna MacGregor

My rating: 4 of 5 stars - Would Recommend to a Friend

Review Copy Provided by Publisher via Net Galley

I’ve been missing historical romance lately and Wild, Wild Rake was just the ticket.

Avalon is a Cavensham cousin that we’ve seen briefly before. Here we meet her at 17 when she discovers the truth about the marriage her parents arranged. The bulk of this well written story takes place 10 years later when Avalon reconnects with Vicar Devan Farris.

I enjoyed both Avalon and Devan. They were entertaining characters and it was a treat to get to know them and see their emotional growth. I appreciated the bonds they made as they moved from potential adversaries to friends to more.

One of the things I enjoy most about the Cavensham stories is the fact that the heroines are all strong women. Avalon is no exception to this. Wild, Wild Rake was a treat to read and I am looking forward to more from this author.

Tucker by Emily March ~ New Release and Review



SYNOPSIS


Hope springs eternal in this enchanting Texas town.
Meet Gillian Thacker. Her business: Bliss Bridal Salon. Her passion: Weddings. Her own wedding: It’s complicated. Life isn’t turning out like she’d planned. The last thing she wants is for a real-life hero to ride to her rescue but when an unexpected event puts her entire future in Redemption, Texas, at risk. So what’s a broken-hearted bridal expert to do? Maybe a new set of survival skills is exactly what she needs…
Tucker McBride has been proud to call himself a U.S. Army Ranger. But now that his daysof service are over, he’s decided to put his expertise to use by founding a wilderness skills training school. He sets up shop in Redemption, next to Bliss Bridal, and so begins life: Part Two. Marriage has been pretty low on his agenda, but as soon as he meets Gillian, Tucker can’t help but contemplate the ultimate challenge: Convincing the reluctant bride to take his hand and leap into the adventure of a lifetime. . .until death do they part.

Elizabeth's Review


3.5 stars - Worth a Reader's Time


Review Copy Provided by Publisher via Net Galley


In this 2nd installment of the McBride books (related to Ms March’s Eternity Springs series) we spend more time with Tucker and Gillian.

Tucker is former Army officer looking for his new path and Gillian is dealing with her own life changes when they become friends. I enjoyed getting to know these two and seeing them form the relationships that would be important to both of them.

This is very much in the vein of the Eternity Springs books, meaning that both characters have their own growth to go through before romance can bloom.

As expected, this is well written and sweet. One word of caution to people who are new to Ms March - I would suggest ready Jackson’s story (at least) before diving into this one. The secondary cast is very interconnected and having that back story would be helpful.

Great and Precious Things~ Rebecca Yarros ~ New Release and Review

Release Date: February 25
How do you define yourself when others have already decided who you are? 
Six years ago, when Camden Daniels came back from war without his younger brother, no one in the small town of Alba, Colorado, would forgive him—especially his father. He left, swearing never to return.
But a desperate message from his father brings it all back. The betrayal. The pain. And the need to go home again.
But home is where the one person he still loves is waiting. Willow. The one woman he can never have. Because there are secrets buried in Alba that are best left in the dark.
If only he could tell his heart to stay locked away when she whispers she’s always loved him, and always will…
Great and Precious Things is a heart-wrenching story about family, betrayal, and ultimately how far we're willing to go on behalf of those who need us most.

Elizabeth's Review


4.5 stars - One of the Best


Review Copy Provided by Publisher via Net Galley


I have a confession- I’m not really sure where to start with telling you about this book. I know I need more than Great and Precious Things is awesome, but trying to do that without giving a ton away is hard.

I think the best way to describe Great and Precious things is evocative. By using two interesting and dynamic people in Cam and Willow as our story tellers, Ms Yarros takes us on a pretty emotional journey.

We see family relationships challenged and reshaped, preconceived notions turned upside down, grief, guilt, unrequited love, friendship, and devotion just to name a few things touched on in this story.

I genuinely liked Cam and Willow and found myself rooting for them. I enjoyed watching them go to bat for each other and seeing how that faith paid off.

I didn’t really know what to expect going in to this read - other than I knew it would be good. What I got wasn’t just good, it was great and seeing love like this was a pretty precious thing too.



Meet Rebecca Yarros

I’m a hopeless romantic and adore all things chocolate, coffee and paleo. No, seriously, I need to have a caffeine IV put in. I’ve adored reading all my life, and writing naturally evolved from my love of late nights and promises of one more page.

I’m also a military wife of sixteen years. During my husband’s deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, I was devouring a book a day, and during his third deployment, I finally wrote my own. With a somewhat ironic timing, I received my book deal for Full Measures during his fourth deployment, and published a month after he returned home. We’re currently preparing for his fifth deployment, so check out the blog for the latest!

On the homefront, we have six kids. Yes, you read that right—six. If I’m not writing or playing guitar, I’m usually tying hockey skates for our four boys, or sneaking in John Hughes marathons with my two daughters. We fostered and adopted our youngest daughter from the foster system and we’re passionate about helping others do the same through our non-profit, One October! We’re always busy navigating the winding road of our daughter’s recent autism diagnosis, getting our boys to hockey, prepping for a deployment, and generally trying to stay sane. We’re die-hard Mets fans, but our hearts call Colorado home.

If you’ve read all of that, haven’t fallen asleep, and still want to know more about me, check out my blog: http://www.rebeccayarros.com/blog!

Review Round Up ~ February 21


New Releases:


Stone Cold Kiwi (New Zealand Ever After, #2)Stone Cold Kiwi by Rosalind James

4.5 stars - One of the Best

In Stone Cold Kiwi, Ms James returns us to the Te Mana/MacGregor families that we have met in several previous books.

Our heroine, Poppy, has the misfortune of discovering her husband’s infidelity as she is being wheeled into the ER after delivering her third child. Our hero, Matiu, is not only the doctor who delivered the baby, but a distant family friend.

The story that follows is at turns fraught, tense, sweet, and empowering. Yes, there is a romance, but the bigger story is about two people who are more than they’ve allowed themselves to believe they are. Both Poppy and Matiu both have an emotional journey to take and it turns out they are the perfect people to help each other on the way. Add in scene stealing kids, wise grandparents, and parents who finally see the light and the secondary cast helps craft the powerful narrative surrounding these two excellent characters.

One of the messages that stood out for me in Stone Cold Kiwi was the acknowledgement that being a Mom didn’t mean Poppy’s life as her own person stopped happening. The path to Poppy (and the people around her) figuring this out wasn’t smooth, but I appreciated the way she handled things and the improved relationships she gained along the way.

Written in Ms James unique style, this excellent read is a stand-alone piece set in a world created in previous works and features several secondary characters we’ve met before. The country of New Zealand is almost as much of a character in the book as a setting - and as always after finishing a Ms James book, I wish I could go visit!

Amazon


Sisters by Choice (Blackberry Island, #4)Sisters by Choice by Susan Mallery

My rating: 4 of 5 stars - Would Recommend to a friend

Review Copy Provided by Author

Sisters by Choice is a lot of what I would expect from a Susan Mallery book. It’s well written, a little thought provoking, a little heartwarming, and has a dose of humor as well.

Sophie, Kristan, and Heather are cousins and all at a cross roads. I found myself relating to each of them at various points in the book. I appreciated seeing the growth that each of the ladies went through as they found their footing with the changes taking place.

Ms Mallery does an excellent job of pulling the reader in and giving small lessons about change, communication, and being brave enough to take a chance.

Unrequited ~ Julie Wolf ~ Cover Reveal


šŸ”„šŸ”„ COVER REVEAL šŸ”„šŸ”„
Unrequited by Julia Wolf is releasing #March12th!! Don’t miss this sexy rock star romance about a curvy, badass drummer and the bassist she loves to hate. Pre-order today!
 

My proper southern belle mama might disagree, but I say I was born to be a rebel. From the second I got my hands on a pair of drumsticks, my future was sealed. I never fit in anyway, not with my rocker soul and curves that never take a day off. But what’s a drummer without a band? Oh, that’s right. A cocktail waitress. That is, until the chance of a lifetime falls into my lap—Unrequited needs a drummer, and I happen to have an ‘in’ with the band. The only trouble is, Santiago Garza, Unrequited’s broody, scowly bassist, doesn’t want me in his band, which is kind of funny, considering he was the one who took my heart and stomped all over it five years ago. My career is far more important than hurt feelings though, so Santiago can suck it up and deal. That’s what I’m doing, no matter how many times I remember the feel of his lips on mine. I won’t fall for him this time. I’m done being anyone’s second choice.   Add to your Goodreads TBR: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49516207-unrequited

Excerpt

“How good are you at keeping secrets, Lenora Astalis?” His voice wrapped around my neck like a noose. I wanted to cough. I needed to cough. He terrified me. I hated him with the heat and passion of a thousand blazing suns. He made me feel like a scaredy cat and a snitch. “Oh, yes. If you’re coward enough to pretend you’re asleep, you’re good enough to keep a secret. That’s the thing about you, Astalis. I can smash you into dust and watch your grains dance at my feet. My little circus monkey.” I might’ve hated Vaughn, but I hated myself more for not standing up to him. For not opening my eyes and spitting in his face. Clawing his unnaturally blue eyes out. Taunting him back for all the times he’d taunted all of us at Carlisle Prep. “By the way, your eyelids are moving,” he said drily, chuckling. He straightened up, his finger making a brief stop at the base of my spine. He snapped his fingers, making a breaking sound, and I nearly jumped out of my skin, letting out a gasp. I squeezed my eyes tighter, still pretending to sleep. He laughed. The bastard laughed. Was he sparing me for the time being? Was he going to check in on me from now on? Retaliate if I opened my mouth? He was so unpredictable. I wasn’t sure what my life would look like in the morning. LJ Shen prof picAbout LJ Shen L.J.

Dominik by Sawyer Bennett ~ New Release and Review



Dominik (Arizona Vengeance, Book #6)
Sawyer Bennett
Release Date: February 18, 2020

Synopsis:
I built myself up from nothing. A product of the foster care system, I learned early on how to fight hard to get what I want. Whether it was starting my first company in college, earning my first billion, or buying my first professional sports team, I know how to get what I want, when I want it. 

Until now.

Willow Monahan is fierce, independent, and hot as hell. She also takes great pleasure in shutting down my advances. The younger sister of one of my star players, Willow intrigues me to my very core. And while she may have willingly given me her body, she is hesitant to offer up more. Now I’m on a mission to find out why.

I’ve decided to approach my desire for Willow like I’ve approached much of my life; with persistence, determination, and a whole lot of that Dominik Carlson alpha charm. Buying a hockey expansion team, building the Arizona Vengeance from the ground up, and bringing home a championship may prove to be an easier feat than winning Willow’s heart.

But I’ve never been a quitter.

Willow Monahan… I’m coming for you.

Review Copy Provided by Author


If you have followed the Arizona Vengeance series, Dominick Carlson is a character that has popped up in every book. We’ve gotten glimpses of the team owner, but here we really have a chance to get to know him and Willow (the player’s sister we’ve watched him pursue for several books.)

Dominick is a character that I’ve enjoyed in the past, but it was fun to see the layers of wealth peeled back to the man underneath. It was sweet watching him fall in love and seeing the softer side of the billionaire.

I had a harder time getting a read on Willow and her refusal to invest in a relationship. There are several references to a past relationship gone bad, but there isn’t enough detail to get a better feel for where her fears are coming from. Even with struggling to get a feel for Willow, I enjoyed seeing her and Dominick together and the way they seemed to integrate each other into their lives and social circles.

As this is the 6th installment of the Vengeance series, the secondary cast is full of previous main characters- it’s a great opportunity for loyal readers to catch up on what’s going on with previous favorites. This is a book that could be read as a stand-alone, but I would discourage that. The reading experience would be richer if other books in the series had been read first.
