LET LOVE FIND YOU by Johanna Lindsey

Wow, this book takes you on a whirlwind of a ride. A man called Cupid is enough to make me laugh, but how this Cupid found love for himself, was so beautiful.

Amanda Locke is everything a man can ask for in a wife.  She's beautiful, smart, engaging and a Duke's daughter.  But this is Amanda's third season and she is no closer to finding a husband than when she started.

Her family is trying their best to help her, but they themselves are baffled by her lack of marriage proposals.

She's doing everything right!  She would not allow any of her suitors to call on her nor does she truly listen to their stories.  She does all of the talking to the same gentlemen at every gathering, waiting for her true love to find her.  What else is she suppose to do?

When her sister-in-law suggests that she ask the famous cupid for advice, Amanda is mortified.  She refuses to ask the brute of a man who dared to tell her she talks too much for any kind of help.  Even with him looking as handsome as he does.

Devin Baldwin is over six feet tall, with a broad and powerful figure.  He's not someone that you think will have a nickname like Cupid, but alas it's true.  Devin has a way of finding someone their perfect match by asking them questions.  Questions he's come up with, based on his horse training.  It's not the traditional way of doing things, but he gets good results.

When one of the most beautiful creatures he has ever seen, offers to pays him to help her sister-in-law find a mate, he has no choice but to refuse.  The sister-in-law she speaks of refuses to listen to the advice given to her and has a sassy mouth to go with it.

 If you want to know more you have to read the book and find out.

I did not think that I would enjoy this book much.  The heroine sounded like a total brat (which she was) and I knew that I was not going to like her (which I did not). But she had a kind heart and that's what saved me from completely disliking her.

Every time that someone disagrees with Amanda, she's quick to open her mouth and scream at them.  She screamed at Devin, she screamed at her sister-in-law and did I mention she screamed at Devin.

But even with her dislike of Devin, she knew that she needed his help in order for her to learn to ride a horse.  She needs to do this to get the attention of a suitor who does nothing but talk of horses.  The one animal that strikes fear in her heart. 

I loved the antics of Devin and how he tried to get along with Amanda, even with her rotten attitude.  Soon, he finds himself seeing the real her and her fell in love with her.  Devin wants Amanda but knows that he can never have her, especially if she learns the truth about him. 

My one criticism of this book was how everything was resolved.  Devin confronts someone who knows about the attempted murders.  Said person refused to tell them who it was and Devin left it at that and left.  The solution to the problem was too simple and I needed a bigger confrontation than what was given.

I just love a man with a little mystery.  This book has sabotage, attempted murder and people falling in love with the wrong people.  This book has a little of everything from humor to romance and you are going to have a fun time reading this book.


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...

MY CURVY VALENTINE by Sugar Jamison

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. I could tell that she was has been married to the same guy for years before the both of them even knew it. 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. Every morning she is awakened by sexual dreams that include whatever is being made in the bakery each morning.  Her dreams o...

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...
