"In the Groove" [NASCAR Series, Book 2] by Pamela Britton

My Book Summary : Sarah just keeps getting kicked to the curb with all of her ex-boyfriends but this most recent time was a doozy! Recently some racy photos of her became published without her permission (not to mention that they were photoshoped). Because of these photos, she has lost her job as a kindergarten teacher (that she loved), and her most recent boyfriend broke up with her and kicked her out of their place to live. Therefore, she's trying to make a new start .... drives across the country to North Carolina looking for a job ... but the only thing she seems to be able to get is to become the bus driver for Lance Cooper (a famous NASCAR racer), who she has never heard of in her life. They seem to have an instant spark between them as soon as they meet, but being his employee, Sarah tries to have it go nowhere. Will Lance just give up trying? Will Sarah's past just go away or will it come back to haunt her?

My Book Review : 2.5 out of 5 stars. Cute NASCAR story ... but the way Sarah handles the situation kinda upset me ... I mean the book is well written but it made me not like the book's ending too much.

Book Teaser :

She opened her eyes. Her head--still attached to her body, miraculously--had come to rest against something hard and cool. A windshield, she realized. Her cheek and the front of her body pressed against the glass.
Oh, great.
She was now a human bug. How appropriate. ~ within Chapter 1

"Summer Nights" [Fool’s Gold Series, Book 8] by Susan Mallery

My Book Summary : Shane has recently moved to Fool's Gold in hopes of settling his horses in his mother's barn and building his home and his own stables on the neighboring property. What he gets instead is a whole menagerie of his mother's rescued animals to take care of, a well-meaning town that change up his life in ways he never expected or originally wanted, and a small redheaded librarian who has the making of a bad girl that Shane could get lost in. Everything but Annabelle, the librarian, Shane believes he can deal with, but if it was his choice, he wouldn't get close to Annabelle at all, as she seems too much like his ex-wife.

Annabelle will do whatever she can to prove him wrong and become his friend. However, will she loose her heart to the gruff cowboy in the process?

My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars, this novel is humorous while keeping up with all of the typical antics that run around Fool's Gold! Annabelle and Shane are both dealing with their pasts throughout this novel but along the way, they end up losing their hearts to each other too. I really liked reading about the build up to "All Summer Long" while getting to read more about the Stryker brothers!!

I wish I could give this novel a higher ranking because of all of the humorous things that go on and because I enjoyed the characters. However, the plot was too drawn-out for me to thoroughly enjoy. Also, I wasn't happy with how redundant Shane was, when it came to his belief that Annabelle was just like his ex-wife, even though she wasn't anything like her.

With that being said, I still recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys the Fool's Gold series!! It's always fun to catch up on the town! =0)

"That was a one-time thing," she said primly. "We won't be having sex again. We've come to an understanding. We're friends."
"Keep saying it," Charlie told her. "One day it might be true."
Annabelle glanced around to make sure no one was sitting too close, then leaned toward her friends and lowered her voice. "I have to admit, I do like him a lot. Maybe more than a lot. We want different things though and he doesn't trust me."
"Why doesn't he trust you?" Charlie asked. "You didn't do anything wrong."
"It's his ex," Heidi explained. "I never met her, but I heard stories from Rafe. Apparently she's a real byotch."
Charlie snorted. "You did not just say that. Seriously?"
"I'm hip," Heidi said with a sniff. "Is that the right word?"
Annabelle grinned. ~ within Chapter 10

"You're perfectly safe. You're not going to fall."
"Easy for you to say," she told Shane. "You're standing on the ground. I know. We'll trade. You sit up here while Khatar stands on his back feet and I'll watch. Then I for sure won't fall."
Shane turned away, but not before she saw him smile.
"You think this is funny?" she demanded. "It's not. Nothing about you trying to kill me is funny." ~ within Chapter 12

"Only Mine" [Fools Gold Series, Book 4] by Susan Mallery

My Book Summary : Dakota has had some upsets in her life recently, and that isn't including her boss, Raoul, loaning her to work on this new reality show (located in Fools Gold) so the executives won't ruin the town. But when Finn walks into her life ... things between them go from casual to scorching quickly. Even though Finn is originally in Fool Gold to get his younger twin brother off of this new reality show and back into college in Alaska, where they are all from and (in Finn's view point) they need to be, he can't regret getting to know Dakota. She's fun, easy to talk to, and calms him and his worries down more than once. However, they both know this is just a casual relationship they have together and as soon as his brothers get kicked off the show and either shape up and do what they should be doing or he kicks them into shape himself, he definitely not planning on staying in Fools Gold any longer then he needs to be.

So, when Dakota's life goes from being single and carefree to one with a whole lot more responsibilities will Finn decide to end what they have and move on or will he realize that what he really needs just happens to be right in front of him??

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars! So far in this series I have read the first and third books and even though I loved the characters, the plots fell a little short for me ..... but this book definitely topped them both for me .... from the main characters to the secondary characters, I couldn't get enough and was rooting for them all!! Ever since I finished the third book I have wanted to read the stories about the triplets, and I was pleasantly surprised by the turn of events in this novel! Dakota turned out to be a great main character, from her relationship with her sisters to what she wanted in her future to the relationship she had with Finn ... as I said I couldn't get enough!

Then to just add to it ... Sasha and Stephen!! Oh, my ... I SO hope they'll have a book of their own since I really want Stephen and Aurelia together, and I want to see what happens to Sasha and his dream of fame .. will he make it and will he find anyone for himself?? Very addicting!

Book Teaser(s) :

"I'm not a cougar," she said, speaking very quickly. "I'm actually allergic to cats. I'm not a man magnet." She could feel herself blushing. The man magnet statement was ridiculous. Geoff could tell what she was and wasn't simply by looking at her. ~ within Chapter 4

He raised his eyebrows. "I don't want to watch people falling in love."
She smiled. "Okay, okay. It's a girl thing. A while ago on Biggest Loser two of the contestants fell in love. It was just the best. My sisters and I couldn't stop calling each other about it."
"But you don't know them. Why does it matter if they get involved?"
"It just does. It's fun to watch people fall in love. Which should make the show more interesting. I guess that's the problem. No one is falling in love." ~ within Chapter 17
