My review:
Change With
Me is the #17.5 novella in the With Me in Seattle series. It was easy to read, fast-paced and easily a
one setting book to read. Change With Me
is part of the 1001 Dark Nights series which can be read as stand-alones
and gives new readers a chance to explore new authors. Even though I have not read any of the other
books in the series I do not feel as though I missed anything by jumping into
the series. The characters were charming
and perfect for each other.
Zane Cooper,
famous actor, needs to lay low until the scandal blows over. He decides to leave LA and stay with his best
friend in Seattle. Aubrey Stansfield
leaves Arizona after her grandfather dies to take a teaching position in Seattle. She loves teaching children and is ready to
start over in a new city and school.
When they unexpected rent the same apartment they decide to being
roommates since neither has another place to go.
I enjoyed reading
this book and getting the chance to read some of Kristen Proby’s work. It was well written and was just enough to
know I like her style of writing. I look
forward to reading more of her books in the future.
I received an
ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Christmas in Smithville Kirsten Fullmer (Hometown, #4) Publication date: November 30th 2017 Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Holiday, Romance
Even though Gloria is determined to change her reputation, most of the women in town still think she’s a tramp. Sure, she may have dressed a little flashy and dated pretty much every single guy in town, but that’s the past. Now that she wants to make a fresh start, will Smithville give her a second chance?
Ned has heard all the gossip, but being the Sheriff’s Deputy, he sees all the kind things Gloria does behind the scenes for the folks of Smithville. It looks like the upcoming Christmas Pageant will offer him the opportunity to spend time with her, but can he overcome a frustrating stutter and talk to her, face to face?
Your favorite characters from the Hometown Series bring craziness, love, and Smithville Christmas style, to a whole new romance about overcoming your past and sharing your deepest secrets. Fall in love and be swept away with the Christmas Eve celebration of your dreams.
“Then I just had to wr—wrap the baby up and hand her to her mother,” Ned said as he dropped his paint roller in the bucket of hot water.
Gloria stared at him, her eyes wide in fascination. “I can’t believe you delivered a baby by the side of the road. I don’t think I could have—”
“Sure you could,” he said with a shrug. “When the time comes and work needs doing, folks like us st—step up.”
Unsure, she scoffed. “Well, baking a casserole is one thing, but—”
Ned reached out to take her paint roller. “Yeah, okay, the baby was kind of a big deal,” he conceded, “Usually, I just end up learning w—way more about people than I want to know.”
“I understand that.” Gloria nodded. “Given my past, I know—” She stopped, realizing what she was saying. “Of course, I’ve forgotten all about those guys…” She faltered, her words fading away and her cheeks burning red under her freckles.
Ned’s laughter rang out into the workshop. “Oh, I’m sure you don’t know which guys in town burp at the table, who is connected at the hip to their momma, or who snores—” The words chopped off and it was his turn to blush. “I… I d—didn’t mean… I—I w—wasn’t…” His stutter always got much worse when he was upset. Frustrated, he stopped talking and turned back to the water bucket.
“Don’t be embarrassed,” Gloria said, feeling bad for him. “It’s true though, especially with your job. What do you do when you meet someone on the street, and you know intimate details about their personal life?” She waited, but he just pumped the paint rollers up and down in the water, so she tried again. “I’m asking for advice, honest. Do they train you on this stuff at the police academy?”
He shrugged, then straightened and shoved one hand in the front pocket of his jeans. “Well we have to t—take ethics classes, but—” he looked up, making eye contact, “no, they don’t tell you that stuff. You just h—have to act like you weren’t at their house two n—nights ago with the fire chief, helping them get their hand unstuck from the k—kitchen drain they were trying to fix.”
Her eyes widened, and she chuckled in surprise. “Who? No, no don’t tell me.”
He shook his head; his hand raised to stop her. “I wouldn’t,” he said, but his eyes were bright with humor. “It’s a th—thing you have to learn to do I guess. I know you’re g—good at it, I’ve seen you in action.”
She shrugged modestly. “Oh, well, I just try to put myself in their place.”
They were both quiet for a minute, contemplating all the dirt they’d collectively compiled on the people of Smithville.
“Yeah, ” she continued with a sparkle in her eye. “Because if I were a great big guy, I wouldn’t want everyone to know that I scream like a little girl when I see a spider.”
Ned’s eyebrows rose, and a big grin spread across his face. “Now I have to wonder…”
“It will go with me to the grave,” she assured him, looking solemn. But she couldn’t help it and broke into laughter. “Oh my gosh, it was the funniest thing. I thought he was going to run away, but he kept screaming for me to ‘get it’. Of course, I was far too busy laughing and taking video.”
He chuckled, enjoying the way her eyes shone when she was happy. Her laughter was like music, and her cheeks turned rosy with happiness. His own heart swelled, catching him off guard. “You’re a mean one, aren’t you,” he teased.
“Me?” she asked, with her hand on her chest. “No, no, I finally took pity on him and smashed the bug.”
“Well that’s good,” he said, wishing he could make her laugh like that all the time.
“Anyway,” she trailed off, “I better get moving. I have a ton of sewing to do.”
“I wish I could help you with th—that,” he said, collecting the butcher paper he’d spread for them to paint. “But I have no idea how to even thread a needle.”
Her head tilted to one side. “I doubt that.”
“Okay, okay,” he relented, crumpling the paper to stuff it in the trashcan. “I can thread a n—needle, but choir robes and sh—shepherd costumes are way beyond my scope.”
She waved him off. “Oh, these are pretty simple. I figure they’re for one night and no one will really see them up close.”
“True.”
“Except…”
He waited for her to continue, watching her think, wishing he could hear what was on her mind.
“Well, it’s just,” She chuckled. “Practically every family in town has someone in this thing, so I guess in reality, everyone will see them up close.”
“Right?” he laughed. “I wonder sometimes, who is going to watch the show.”
“Me too!” she agreed. “We may need to set up a bus service to bring folks from Uniontown.”
He rubbed his chin. “Not a bad idea.”
She reveled in the shared moment, then turned away, looking for her purse. “Well, I’d better get going.”
“Thanks for the help,” he said, wishing he knew how to make her stay. “ Do you have to go?”
The question froze Gloria in her tracks. Normally at this point, if a gorgeous man was being funny and sweet and she liked him, she’d stay and talk. And not only that, she amended, she’d sign up for more. But things were different now. She was different. She wasn’t doing any of this to get a man, and, truth be told, she wouldn’t know what to do with one at this point anyway. She wanted to prove to the women in town she didn’t need to flirt, and that she could do a job and do it well, without attracting male attention. She frowned. That wasn’t going so well evidently. Was she attracted to Ned?
Turning back toward the shop, she regarded him carefully. He had a swipe of red paint across one cheek, but that only made him more approachable. The man was a knock out no matter how you looked at him. The paint spear made him cute. Shocked by her appraisal, her eyebrows lifted. When was the last time she’d thought a grown man was cute? Especially one with a physique like the deputy.
He grew uncomfortable under her stare, and she realized she was being rude. “I really do have to go,” her words said, but the rest of her said, “I want to stay.” He was easy to talk to and friendly. He didn’t judge her. He was nice. It came to her then; she had a friend in Ned. They had some things in common, and they could have a laugh together. Given her situation, a friend was something she needed. Gaging her words carefully, she hoped she could make him understand how much she appreciated him. “I really do have to go, but this has been… this has been great.”
He looked so disappointed that she nearly relented, but she knew it was for the best. This pageant was not the time or place to be looking for a new boyfriend. And she was sure she didn’t want to ruin the budding friendship they’d forged. This was new territory, and she had to move carefully and use her head.
“I have to go.” She turned toward the door, then, with her hand on the door handle, she stopped and looked over her shoulder. “But I’ll see you tomorrow night at practice, right?”
For a minute she thought he wasn’t going to respond, but finally he nodded, and an easy grin lit his face. “Sure.”
All she could manage was a quick nod, and then she ducked out the door before she could change her mind.

365 days in
exchange for $200 million dollars. That’s all it takes to save my family’s
legacy. I just have to say two words, ‘I do.’
I’m across the country when I find out my father
hired a big-time publicist to announce my upcoming wedding to one of the most
powerful billionaire moguls in the country. A king in the hotel industry. The
problem is, it’s news to me. I’ve never even met this man.
Of course, I flat out refuse. In fact, I protest
vehemently.
That’s until my father fesses up to deep, dark secrets
he's been holding back from me.
To save my family’s legacy—and hold on to the
vestige of the precious heritage my deceased mother left me—I have to agree to
a merger-marriage?! With a complete stranger?!
To dig himself out of a hellish abyss, my father
turned me into a pawn. A payment.
Just like that, I find myself stripped of all
decision power. Either I go along with this fake marriage or I become a runaway
bride.
My review:
Billionaire Mogul-Phoenix is the third
book in the Billionaire Mogul series by Scarlett Avery. I recently discovered
this author and I have really come to enjoy her books. They are fast-paced,
have spicey chemistry, and swoon-worthy alpha heroes. This was a fake marriage
troupe which is one of my favorites. We met Michaela in the second book (Rhys story)
as Keira’s best friend. I was looking forward to reading her story and was glad
to revisit characters from earlier books.
Michaela’s family arranged a
marriage to save themselves without her knowledge. She had never even met him
and was shocked when her father informs her of her upcoming wedding. Sparks fly
when she meets Phoenix who was surprised by her feistiness.
It seems like each book gets better
and better. Although the books can be read as stand-alone, it is better to read
in order. Otherwise, you miss out on the connection between all the characters.
This was an amazing story and I look forward to future books by the author.

Certain a desperate 911 caller is her presumed-dead sister, emergency dispatcher Brandi Callahan follows the cryptic message to a terrified toddler…and an armed assailant. Now Brandi will do anything to protect the boy—even if it means asking her ex-fiancé, Texas Ranger Rhett Kincaid, for help. But can Brandi and Rhett stop this killer before he exacts his terrible Christmas vengeance?
From Love Inspired Suspense: Courage. Danger. Faith.
My review:
This was a new-to-me author, and I am so glad I had the chance to read it. It was well written, had likable characters, and the pacing was perfect. I loved the storyline and how the author slowly revealed the details of the past. The book started off with a lot of action and it kept on going until the end.
Dispatcher Brandi Callahan’s life took a dramatic turn the funds her father managed for the town went missing, her father was found dead, and Sadie, her sister, disappears. The people of Mulberry Gap were quick to blame her father and shun their family. Brandi knew her father was innocent, and her sister was still alive but no one else believed her. Even Rhett, the man she was engaged to, did not believe it. A mysterious call sends her to her deserted family’s farm where she discovers a terrified toddler and almost is killed.
Texas Ranger Rhett Kincaid knew Brandi was in real trouble when she appears on his doorstep. She had broken their engagement and managed to avoid him for two years. He never stopped caring for her and when her life is endangered, he will do all he can to protect her. The closer they get to the truth, the closer they realize that someone is also setting up Brandi. Can they find her sister in time?
This was an intense book with lots of intrigues, action, and an unexpected ending. I loved how the main characters were able to work together even though there was tension from their past. I was cheering them on the entire book and was so glad to see them succeed.

My review:
Conveniently
Yours is the first book in the Titans of Manhattan series by Anise Storm. This was the first time I have read one of her
books, so I was not sure what to expect.
The synopsis and the cover caught my attention, so I wanted to give it a
try. It was fast-paced and had a good
storyline.
Caspian had worked
all his life to become CEO of his uncle’s business. Now his uncle is older and has health
problems, he decides it was time for Casper to get married so he announced that
Caspian must get married and stay married for one year before he can take over
the business.
Paisley’s mother was in a coma and her
insurance was about to run out. Paisley
was broke, about to be evicted, and desperate.
In order to provide health care for her mother, Paisley had no choice but
to accept Caspian’s offer to marry him for 1 year and a day.
The twist toward
the end was surprising. In the beginning,
Caspian’s character was businesslike and cold but discovering how he had maneuvered
Paisley did not redeem him. Paisley was a
strong woman and I like how she stood up for herself. I enjoyed reading the book and I look forward
to future books by the author.

A Southern transplant, Anise is married with children. She has a love of football, shoes, and tall, dark heroes. When not spending time with family or traveling, she can be found either curled up with a good book or writing.
I didn't think Alex could get any hotter, but his time at med school was good to him. Dirty blond hair. A bit of scruff across his chiseled jawline. And a body beneath those scrubs that makes me think all sorts of naughty things. Alex seems to be utter perfection... and he barely notices I exist. Or so I thought. Lately, everywhere I look he's there. Renting a room in my bed and breakfast. Devouring my pastries. Wanting to talk every morning over coffee. Is it possible my lifelong crush finally sees me as more than his little sister's best friend?
Navy SEAL Tony “Flakes” Hackenbreg’s career and sanity ride on the upcoming mission to avenge his fallen SEALs. Being forced to partner with the dangerously beautiful CIA agent Elliot Smith is the last thing he thinks he needs. But with her love for explosives, sassy mouth, and a body most men would kill for, Elliot is everything he never knew he needed in a woman. Constantly together, the two shift from enemies to partners before morphing into an undeniable attraction that neither can resist. But keeping Elliot in line and safe on the dangerous mission proves to be the hardest challenge of Tony’s career.
She’s willing to kill anyone who stands in her way… except the one SEAL whose commands she’s eager to obey.
Elliot Smith’s last operation to Colombia cost her everything: her flawless mission reputation with the CIA, her partner, and nearly her own life. With vengeance on her mind, she doesn’t want or need a mouthy, dominant SEAL monitoring her every move like an overprotective babysitter. But when he sneaks past her defenses, making her open up about her past and hopes of a future, Elliot wonders if she’s finally met her equal. When intense tension turns to passion in the middle of a covert mission, will they see the signs of a carefully laid trap?
Blood, sweat, and gunpowder mix a heady cocktail neither can withstand, making each touch and stolen kiss explosive. The enemies turned lovers must work together or their shared enemy will slip through their fingers again—this time with Elliot in his grasp.
Covert Vengeance is a standalone, no cliffhanger, SEAL romantic suspense novel. Each book in the SEALs and CIA Series can be enjoyed on their own; however, because of character crossover, reading the series in order is recommended. This series is suggested for mature readers due to detailed intimate scenes, discussion of abuse, violence, and foul language.
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars
My review:
Covert Vengeance was the second book in the SEALS and CIA series. I loved the first book, A Covert Affair, and this book was just as amazing. The intrigue kept me interested and the humor kept me laughing. I loved the witty banter and was constantly surprised by Elliott’s exploits. “Someone’s crazy is another’s normal. But you and I, what we do and who we are, is not normal. So, you calling me crazy is a little ridiculous” CIA Elliot Smith’s mission in Colombia trying to catch a dangerous ARMs dealer failed due to a mole. Her partner was killed while she was severely beaten and almost died. When the dealer’s activity ramps up again, she is paired up with a SEAL to return and shut down the dealer. Navy SEAL Tony Hackenbreg was severely injured and had lost part of his team in the Colombia mission. After a difficult divorce and the failed mission, he feels like he is broken and a failure. He wants revenge but never expected to be paired up with an explosive crazy CIA agent.
I loved meeting Tony in the first book and really looked forward to his book. This book was so much better than I could have imagined. The intrigue, the chemistry, and all of the witty banter were mind-blowing. I could not get enough and was sad once I reached the end. I hope to see Tony and Elliot in future books along with the other SEAL team members. This is one of those series that I will certainly read more than once.
