***5 ‘Risk’ Stars*** The opening line “To me, he was Grizzly” That was the hook. And to be honest, even without that line I’d have jumped on this baby, but I have a huge things for brooding, grouchy, grumpy males and Grizzly hit all the right buttons for me. Hell, this entire book hit all the right buttons from start to finish. It had me grinning like a loon and snort laughing to growling in frustration to swooning like it was no ones business and I not only fell in love with Alexander and Jordan, but the rest of the North brothers and simply NEED more. Jordan. I ended up adoring this woman. She’s hard working, sweet, sassy and a little sneaky. I’ll admit that I was a bit worried upon first meeting her because of a situation she was dealing with and I was like “Oh no...you’re that kind of girl” I know, one should never judge but I did and thankfully she proved she wasn’t like that and showed me just how well she knew herself and followed her gut. Alexander/Grizzly. Broody, grouch, dire...

*** 4.5 Stars*** I couldn’t wait to get my hands on Ethan’s book after finishing Face the Music since he was the last man standing (not including Chris, but we all know that IF *crossing toes that it’s more of a when instead* it’s gonna be doozy) and the resident manwhore commitment phobe of the group because I NEEDED to see the man brought to his knees, and dear lord did he ever get brought to his knees ~ both figuratively and literally. And though my eyes hurt from all the rolling they did thanks to Taylor and Ethan, I absolutely enjoyed watching these two get their HEA in the end. It seems crazy for me to admit this, but I ADORED Ethan. I wanted to throttle him quite a bit throughout the book, but the man made me swoon. I loved his determination and just how honest he was, with himself and everyone else, even when he didn’t need to be. Taylor, I loved her, I did, but she did try me at times. It was understandable considering her age and just how she grew up, but I have to say that d...

Pastor Ben Langley is irresistible. His wife died giving birth to their daughter five years ago. His tragic past doesn’t keep me from wanting to unravel him, strip away his buttoned-up goodness, and discover what kind of man lies beneath. If that makes me evil, so be it. I’m far beyond redemption anyway. Ashleigh Kendrick is freedom personified, an unpredictable wind I want to grasp hold of. Every Sunday she watches me preach from the front row, wearing her halter tops and tiny skirts, a dangerous temptation. Her favorite words are the four-letter variety, and her smile lights up the darkness inside me. I vowed to love one woman forever. I never realized that vow would be impossible to keep when confronted with a chance to love again. Face the Music is an opposites attract romance with emotional ties to the past that run so thick they feel impossible to overcome.
