review 1: I really enjoyed the characters in this book. Janey was a social type that was working to make her handyman business a success. Len was the strong silent type who was very sweet - not at all a "bad boy". Janey was used to hitting on Len, only to have him turn her down. The on...

review 1: Enjoyed Chase and Shelly's story with all the lone shifter's and the problems they had to overcome. I thought maybe she would shift once his wolf showed up but I guess it will happen in another book. Looking forward to seeing where Evan and Caroline are heading seeing that they b...

review 1: Okay, I've got a better handle on this series now. They're all novellas (helped if I had read that earlier) and so knowing that, I've started enjoying the series more. I like that it seems, so far, the different characters are being put in different situations and thus you learn ...

review 1: Uneven bookI really liked the outdoor, skiing and surfing description. It's clear the author loved that and it shared nicely.However the remainder was not as successful for me. The characters just remained characters, defined mostly by their hair and eye color. And I think that w...

review 1: I really wasn't sure about this book but it was very well written and I found I just couldn't put it down. The tension between Cass and Travis was gripping and in the end the explanation for Cassidy's issues was entirely believable. Ashley featured as Travis' girlfriend in Rebe...

review 1: This was all over the place and the editing was no help plus the whole spelling a different way that looks misspelled in the states didn't help at all. If you can wade through it Jax and Blake's story is actually pretty good. Like the whole movie scene, I didn't really know what ...

review 1: Another good series by Vivian Arend. The only draw back is that it is written more in the "Serial" style of writing where each book is really just a few chapters of the whole. Except hers are more like individual novellas. Longer than a Serial, but shorter than a "real" book. ...

review 1: At first, this couple seemed completely unrealistic to me, as Matt dated Hope's big sister for YEARS before said big sister abandoned both of them for the big city. But as it's stated in the book, if you live in a small town, there's a very real chance you could've dated two or m...

review 1: Very unexpectedly short. Wouldn't have minded it to be longer. Didn't dislike it other than her constant talk about her shoes was a bit old. But, it was just literally a one day in the life situation.Only 3 stars due to shortness. Also, she definitely seemed to favor the third gu...

review 1: My first by Vivian Arend and I thought it was very well done. I don't know if she actually has any experience with climbing or search and rescue, if not she did some outstanding research. All aspects of the story were very believable. It was written like the author had/has some e...

review 1: I enjoyed this book and it was a great addition to the series but I felt it was a bit rushed in parts, which made the love story a bit unbelievable for me. Gabe and Allison were ok as a couple but not as connected as others in the series. Gabe turns out to be a sweet man ( far di...
