I love Sugar Jamison books. It broke my heart when I found out that this book did not star a plus-size woman, but the hot and sexy Colt King was enough to ease my pain. Colt King never wanted to go back to his small town home.  But that's exactly where he and his brothers ended up.  Their aunt who raised them after their father left, is hospitalized and the King brothers rush over to see her.  What they saw was not what they were expecting. They found their aunt fit as a fiddle in her hospital room and Colt had the fortune of finding a half naked woman in their old home.   Yes, the half-naked woman was sassy and held a shotgun towards him, but that did not stop Cole from noticing all she had on display.    Zanna Jacobs is trying to avoid danger, but it seems as if danger came and found her.  Unfortunately, she was not properly dressed for the occasion.  This book was tons of fun to read.  I found that it ended a little...

I enjoy reading Candace Camp books and this book was not, in my opinion, one of her best work but it was still fascinating to read.

Her newest quest in gaining even footing is by arriving ahead of the rush to examine newly discovered ruins at an estate in Duncally.  On her way there, her carriage was attacked by highwaymen. Violet was so angry she attacked her attackers with an umbrella.  But her umbrella was not enough and Violet finds herself saved, by a man. Her rescuer's form of payment was too high in the form of a kiss, and Violet slammed the carriage door in his face and continued on her way.  When she arrived at the Estate, she met with none other than her so called "s...

I really liked this book.  The chemistry between the two were instant and the kiss at first sight just made everything much more interesting.
