RETURN OF THE HIGHLAND LAIRD by Amy Jarecki

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

This book was different from the others in the series, and it was nice to see that it was different in a good way.

 Lady Jane has been dealt an unfair mark in her life.  Wanted for killing her husband, she had no choice but to flee and hide herself from sight.  With only the help from an elderly gentleman, Lady Jane is forced to fend for herself away from civilization, until her name is cleared or forgotten.

 All that changed when a huge, hunk of a man stumbles into her cottages, during a storm.  Before she could even say a thing, he collapsed on the floor. Seeing that he wore a plaid, she knew that he was an Highlander, but seeing as he was very large, and she very little, there was nothing much she can do with him. So she armed herself and waited for him to wake.

 Laird Alexander has lost his pride and his wife. Blaming himself for her death, he takes a foolish risk and goes sailing without a crew, trying to outrun his demons.

 When he lands on English soil, he finds himself attacked, robbed and left for dead.  Using all the strength he has left, he found a cottage to weather the storm and then he knew no more.

 When he awoke, it was to find a beauty of a woman asleep in a chair.  After some negotiations, Alexander exchanged his strength for a place to stay to attend his wounds. Doing manual labor was the easy part, keeping his hands from touching the woman was the problem.

 Read this fascinating and thrilling read about a Laird trying to find his way back home and a Lady who just wants to be free.

 This is the fourth book in the Highland Force series and it had a different story than the rest of the series.  Amy Jerecki must have felt to change things up and wrote this fabulous book filled with, love, loss, murder, kidnapping, power, friendship and much more. 

 The flow of the book was quite good and the story was very compelling.  I read the entire book in a few short hours.  The thing I like most about Amy Jarecki's books is that I actually begin to think that the main characters go through many hardships and that they actually might not end up together in the end, which is of course, ridiculous. (Maybe)

 Lady Jane was fooling herself in this story.  A woman, who has never did any manual labor in her life, thought that she can live, by herself, in a broken down cottage in the woods.  She hardly knows how to do anything, but she gives it her all. Which is admirable.

 The thing is, Lady Jane withheld the truth from Alexander, she even told him a false name.  When the truth got out, Alexander was mad.  Who could blame him, to find out what happens next, you have to read and find out.
HAPPY READING!

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...

This book is tied with Gentlemen Prefers Curves for the best book in this series.  Maggie is such a beautiful person, but she is also clueless.

Deciding to quit her high paying job as a bio-medical engineer and to follow her fashion dreams by working in a clothing store that caters to the full figured woman like herself. You might think that Maggie Calhoun must be out of her mind, especially since this all came about with her parents divorce. And you would be right, Maggie is out of her mind.  Out of her mind in bliss.  This is the first time in her life that she is doing something for herself, and she plans to enjoy it.  That is until her brother's best friend, Alex, moved his bakery beneath her apartment.

WICKED BOND by Sawyer Bennett

Finally, we come to Bridger's story and I must admit, it was not what I was expecting.  Bridger Payne is a walking enigma that no one can quite figure out.  Even his best friend don't know the full story of where Bridger came from. In the Silo, Many want him but not can have him, well not the real him anyway. That's because Bridger lives with so much pain, a pain he has no reason to get rid of since the pain is what makes him survive. If you've read the books from the series you would know Bridger. He helped each and every one of my lovable guys to get their head out their arse and go after their women. You would think that a man that gives such good advice would also take his own preaching, but no such luck. Bridger more believes in happily ever after for everyone other than him. In his mind, he's too f*cked up to be helped and he's learned to accept that, but then Maggie was unexpectedly dumped in his care and Bridger found emotion he's neve...
