ONLY HERS by Francis Ray

Okay, I went into my local Library and saw this books and instantly picked it up.  I know you're not suppose to judge a book by it's cover, but i just could not resist, it was a bonus that the book happened to be good as well.

When Shannon Johnson needs to get away from her life, she escapes to Texas, where she inherited a cabin. The owner of the cabin was one of her patients and knew the trouble she was having and told her that the cabin will heal her.

Upon reaching the cabin however, she saw that it was nothing but a run-down shack and felt her despair deepen, things does not get better when she meets Matt Taggart, the smoking hot neighbor from next door.

Matt Taggart was surveying his land when he came upon someone sleeping in a car.  Locals know better than to stay on his land and he goes to confront them.  Matt did not expect to see a beautiful woman asleep in the car and a fire consumes him to possess her.

Let's just say, even with the heat brewing between these two, Matt's distrust of women, especially beautiful women, has the both of them at each other's throats.  At every turn Matt is at Shannon back, putting her down and telling her to go home.

To make matters worse, Shannon has what Matt knows belongs to him and until she gives it back to him, Matt is stuck with her.   

Now the battle is on between the kind and loving Shannon and the pigheaded and blind Matt to see who will get what they want.

Francis Ray wrote a very nice story, but I was confused by the names in the beginning and some of the characters were getting mixed up in my head that I had to re-read the chapters three times before I finally sought out who was whom.

This book was fun but frustrating most times because of Matt and his dumb way of thinking. Is that how it all works, you get hurt by one person and suddenly you know how everyone thinks?

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it.  Frustrated with the way things were, hel...

THE HIGHLAND HENCHMAN by Amy Jarecki

After reading "The Angel and the Warrior" I really needed a book to pick me up and I am so glad that this book did just the trick.  The only thing that irked me was that the heroine in this book upset me greatly. Needing royal assistance, Baron Ross issued a tournament to enchant the Highlanders to leave their land and come to the Lowlands to take part.  What he really wanted was for the Highlanders to fight a dangerous battle that would get most of them killed. After the tournament the Highland Lairds choose instead to entrust their best warriors to stay and fight. This was not exactly what Baron Ross wanted but he knew that he could not change their mind so he accepted. Bran MacLeod was one of the warriors that was left behind, and even though he did not like it, he knew that he can never go against his Laird.  It did not help matters that their was a dangerous instant attraction between him and the baron's last daughter.  Bran knows that getting involved ...
