Sparks fly when a feminist and a politician inherit a rundown B&B . . . and a baby.
About the Book: California senate hopeful Bennett Browning knows nothing about babies. When his former girlfriend dies and leaves him with the daughter he knew nothing about, he’s left scrambling until he meets Emma Kuan, his daughter’s aunt, who volunteers to be the baby’s nanny.
Emma is used to
keeping secrets. She and her sister always hid their tragic past, but she’s
stunned to learn her sister hid the baby even from her. After meeting the
infant who steals her heart, she’ll do anything to be with her, even living
with a stranger.
Worried about a
potential scandal, Bennett and Emma juggle jobs and living arrangements with
parenting. Then a doctor delivers bad news about the baby—forcing them to make
drastic changes in their priorities.
Our Review: The author paints a complex, vivid picture of two people from diverse backgrounds who come together in order to save an orphaned infant from the foster care system. Over the course of raising that child, a new relationship is born. Just as it begins to thrive, the ultimate blow hits—forcing them to reexamine the direction of their lives. On the surface, this is a heart breaker. Underneath it all is the long-lasting effects of abuse, neglect, substance abuse and mental illness on those who survived—and those who did not.
On a scale of 1-5, Scandalous in Huntington Beach merits a 4.

About the Book: Crime and corruption are rising in Ocean Park, a tired factory town in northern Massachusetts. The police and fire departments are no help—they're staging a work slowdown to protest a pay freeze caused by city budget cuts.
Police Detective Matt Conley is disgusted with the dereliction
of duty, and when tasked with solving the murder of a young Haitian immigrant,
he infuriates the force by teaming with the victim's friend Emmanuel to find
the killer. They encounter an enterprising family of Voudou worshipers, a
ruthless real estate magnate, and a clever, love-struck arsonist in their
search for justice.
Our Review: In this fast-paced
contemporary whodunit, the author paints a vivid picture of a city in crisis,
struggling to reclaim its former identity. Among the chaos are law enforcement
and fire fighters, some who have lost their way along with their city—while others
who stand for what is right, working overtime to do the right thing. Fans of
police procedurals will love This Wicked City while waiting for the next
in this fascinating series.
Based on a scale of 1-5, This
Wicked City merits a 5.

Trust is Everything.
About the Book: When hardworking accountant Ava Morrison is passed over for her dream promotion, she is disappointed. But when her employer gives her two weeks to sign a high-value client or be fired, she is devastated. Then she is reminded of the annual boat show on Victoria Island, a picturesque vacation haven off Florida’s northeast coast and realizes it would be a good place to recruit wealthy businesspeople.
Because someone is stealing from
property developer Jack Rutledge, he needs the help of a discreet accountant.
He asks Ava to audit his company books; in return he will introduce her to
potential clients. Soon, things turn dangerous. As the partnership becomes more
personal, it could add up to love—or prove to be a fatal miscalculation.
Our Review: In the first pages
of this short romantic suspense, heroine Ava describes her situation as “an
out-of-control roller coaster”, thus setting the pace. To the credit of the
author, the hits just keep on coming. Drawn in from page one where the jist of
the story is spelled out in a clear, concise manner, the pages will keep on turning,
first to identify who is stealing from handsome, enigmatic Jack, second to
learn who is threatening Ava, and third the why of it all. Author Andover has
created a beauty of a story. We wonder what she’ll do with the next in this series.
Based on a scale of 1-5, Return to Victoria Island merits a 6.

Come to Bangers Tavern, where everybody knows your name—and helps promote romance when it’s least expected.
About the Books:
Christmas
Rekindled features
two Scrooges who collide under the mistletoe, only to discover their kisses
are too hot to handle. Home for the holidays, Charlie resumes her old job at
Bangers and locks horns with the hunky, hostile bartender. But when greedy
developers threaten their bar, River and Charlie must team up to save it.
Delicious Heat shows off Cupid’s lousy timing. Bangers’ chef Diego falls hard for frazzled nurse Anna who is pregnant with her ex’s child. How can he convince her—and interfering families on both sides—that he’s in it for keeps?
Over the last few years, we greatly
enjoyed coming to know the individual characters in this series. Having them
under one cover keeps them all together—and a prime spot on our Keeper Shelf.
About the Book: Hazel Rutherford hires Kit Kirby, a saloon owner and hell raiser whom all the women—except Hazel—swoon over, to escort her back to Brownwood, Texas to protect her while she rescues her young cousin from a manipulative villain. He calls her prudish. She calls him irresponsible. He calls her prickly. She calls him a conceited hell trap.
There
is no way she’ll make it to Brownwood with her sanity intact. But when Kit
changes the game by kissing her, she’ll be lucky if she gets through this
ordeal still owning her heart.
