The Legacy of Copper Creek - R.C. Ryan

Whit Mckenzie is a hard working Montana cowboy. He heads up to the hunting cabin for some alone time and finds Cara Walton. Cara is also in need of some solitude since she finds herself in some trouble. Whit is just the cowboy to help her out. The only thing that concerned me about this story is that Whit did not seem upset about finding a squatter in his cabin. Otherwise it is a delightful story about finding family and learning to love and trust again. This book offers the perfect mix of humor and angst with just the right amount of steam.

This is book three in the Copper Creek Cowboys Series. I left the cover centered this time, I mean look at that cowboy!

Making A Play - Victoria Denault

Mark your calendars for September 8th because you will not want to miss this fabulous book! Making A Play, is the second book in the Hometown Players series.

Luc Richard is a yummy NHL player who finds himself all to often in the gossip paper spotlight. He's been told by management to cool it so he swears off women and goes back to his hometown of Silver Bay, Maine. There he is reunited with his childhood friend Rose Caplan. What he doesn't know is that Rose has been in love with him since she was a kid. She is tired of being the shy, sweet girl and decides to make a play for Luc once and for all. While her attention to Luc is not entirely unwanted it couldn't come at at worse time for him. This is a marvelously written story of unrequited love that finally gets its day. I enjoyed reading about some of the characters from the first book and learning about Rose and Luc. This is an incredibly sweet and sexy romance. I enjoyed it so much.

My only complaint is that we have to wait until December to get book three!

More, Please - Kate Aster

More, Please, by Kate Aster, INDEED! What a lovely story. I enjoyed Allie and Logan so much. Logan is a yummy Navy Seal (Go Navy!) who is back in his hometown to aid in the care of his ailing father. Allie moved to the town her father grew up in to feel closer to him.

There was so much I loved about this story, Allie has put it all on the line to take care of the dogs she fosters. Logan is trying to make a life for himself outside of the military. This is a wonderful story! I enjoyed it so very much.

Excellent beach read as summer is quickly coming to a close.

Happy Reading.

Just in Time - Rosalind James

This the 8th book in the Escape to New Zealand Series by Rosalind James, was Just In Time  to save me from a major reading slump! The thing I love the most about this authors writing is that you can always depend on her to present well developed characters with a story line that is robust and well thought out.

I have loved all the books in this series and this one is no exception. Will and Faith's story is captivating and I love that it begins in Las Vegas. Will is trying out for a US football team and Faith is a assistant to a local photographer. This is a witty and funny story. At first I feared this would be just another girlfriend for hire story, but it is so much more than that. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

I completely recommend checking this book and the rest of the series out!

Happy Reading!
