Mistletoe and Mr. Right

Moose Springs, Alaska #2

by Sarah Morgenthaler

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

I could return to Moose Springs again and again!

In the second instalment of the series, we follow wannabe resident, Lana Montgomery as she uses her family business and connections to solve all the problems facing Moose Springs, including a fenced moose bourdon the destruction of all holiday decor! It’s a lonely existence being on the outside Moose Springs society, looking in and trying her hardest to improve the town and it’s longevity.

In walks Moose Springs native, Rick Harding. A longtime widow, his friends don’t take too kindly to Lana and their budding friendship/ relationship. Because what kind of a future can they even have with Lana’s high profile job sending around the world for weeks on end?

The flirtation and growing relationship between Lana and Rich was a true delight to watch unfold. These characters seems so different from each other, but at their core they are both extremely caring and selfless people who totally deserve each other! In the previous book, we were introduced to Lana an d Rick, but I never know the true depths of their characters. This books added so many dimensions to each character.

I loved catching up with Graham and Zoey (from The Tourist Attraction) and the other characters. Sometimes the addition of many side characters can muddy a story, but Graham, Zoey and the rest of the friends help the story along and provide the extra support and motivation for Rick and Lana to reach for their desired happily ever after!

This was fun read, and I think I even enjoyed it more that the first book in the series! I highly recommend this book (and series) and suggest you prepare yourself for dreams of visiting small-town Alaskan ski villages in the future!

Mistletoe and Mr. Right by Sarah Morgenthaler is scheduled to release October 26th, 2020.

The Art of Taxidermy

by Sharon Kernot I didn’t know what I was getting when I picked out this book. When I first opened this book and started to read, I was pleasantly surprised. The author, has written this novel in verse and the flow of the writing really goes with and helps tell the story. The Art of Taxidermy tells a gripping and emotional story about love of family and great loss. The themes are woven through the coming of age of young Lottie, along with her immigrant family in Australia after the second world war. I was taken in by this book from the first page and was made to feel deeply for Lottie and this family. Sharon Kernot has written a beautiful book and I can not highly recommend it enough. This is a must read. The Art of Taxidermy by Sharon Kernot is due to release August 23rd, 2019. I received a complimentary copy of this book from the Text Publishing Company through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 #TheArtOfTaxidermy #sharonkern...

The Outlaw's Daughter

The Outlaw’s Daughter Haywire Bride Series #3 by Margaret Brownley ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 A year old stage robbery has brought Texas Ranger, Matt Taggert to the small town of Haywire. While investigating his lead he he discovers that his prime suspect died just days after the stage coach robbery and is the tow’s local hero… not only that, he has left behind a beautiful widow and 2 children. Ellie-May is no stranger to public scorn, as the daughter of an outlaw , she knows what the Rangers accusations against her deceased husband will do to her family and children. For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms! This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me! ...

Here to Stay

Here to Stay by Adriana Herrara ⭐⭐⭐ /5 Adrianna Herraara has a remarkable way of capturing the personality and spirit of her New Yorker characters… even when they aren’t in their native New York! The friendships created and the corresponding camaraderie are what stood out to me the most in this book. It was fun to watch these ex-pat New Yorkers come together in their new home and bond. As for the romance, I found it a bit forced. Julia is on a dating sabbatical and not looking for a man… Rocco is only in Dallas working fro the men trying to cut funding and close Julia’s charitable foundation that she works for. These two should be enemies, but they are friends… the tension between them is pretty high, but they both know they are on opposite sides… I found it unsatisfying… size they were workplace enemies, their friendship muddied the waters. I found it hard to get behind their romance. On another side, I really enjoyed the representation of the charitabl...
