EXCERPT: Millie

Yes, I thought, I can help you with whatever you need, just look at me like that every day for the rest of my life.
“What can I do for you?” I asked, sure my cheeks were turning red.
Then he smiled, and two dimples appeared.
Seriously? I looked around the store for hidden cameras. Were my sisters playing tricks on me? This guy could not be real. Or any more adorable.
“I know it’s last minute, but I have an emergency. I need to hire you to cater my daughter’s ninth birthday party.”
And, there it was… the punchline. Mr. Adorable Dimples was married with a family.
I looked down at his ringed finger, smothered my disappointment, and gave him an apologetic smile.
“I’m sorry, we don’t do children’s parties.”
When his face fell, I wanted to snatch the words back.
“We just don’t have those types of decorations on hand,” I added, hoping to soften the rejection. “There’s a party supply store around the block, I’m sure they’ll have what you need.”
He shook his head and I tilted my head back to get a better look at him. Damn, he was really tall.
“I wish it were that simple. Kayla’s outgrown the kind of birthday party I could give her. If we were still talking about Frozen, I could turn our living room into a winter wonderland and decorate the shit out of it,” he winced and said, “Sorry,” and I assumed he was talking about swearing. Which, jeez, could he get any cuter.
“What does she want?” I asked, even though I knew I should send him on his way and get back to work. I found I didn’t want him to leave yet.
I was such a brat.
“A tea party,” he replied, making tea party sound like a bad word. “I’ve never even had a drop of tea, let alone made an entire party out of it.”
I bit back a chuckle at his obvious distress, and asked, “Can’t your wife help?”
His face looked pained, then he let out a sigh and said, “She, uh, left us, almost a year ago. We haven’t heard from her since, so… no, I’m on my own with this one.”

TOO COMPLICATED Synopsis:

Reardon Lewis is a small-town lawyer in Cherry Springs, the place where he and his cousins grew up. With the body of a Viking and the heart of a geek, Reardon is loyal to his family and indispensable to his community. The only thing missing in his life is love, and it just so happens that the one woman he has always wanted but could never have has just moved to Cherry Springs.

Chloe Zahn is a successful businesswoman, a city girl, and a single mom. The last thing she ever planned to do was move to a small town, but that’s the choice she’s made to bring her son closer to his dad. The only problem? The Lewis family and the obvious disdain they have for her.

The more time Reardon and Chloe spend together, the harder it is to fight their growing feelings for each other. Things between them have always been Too Complicated, but Reardon knows this may be his last chance to win over the woman he's always dreamed of, complications be damned.

Review

Too Complicated is a sweet, romantic story about complicated relationships and how to get the one that got away.  This is the second in the series and I don’t think it’s entirely necessary to read book one first.  There are complicated relationships in the story that book one might have made clearer but this can definitely be read as a standalone.  I wasn’t lost too much or for too long. 

Chloe is feeling a little lost, a whole lot uncomfortable and a bit lonely.  She’s sweet, self-sacrificing and the woman of Reardon’s dreams.  Reardon is my dream man.  He’s what makes this book for me.  He’s tall, hunky and a geek.  I was geeking out right along with him.  His office sounds like a dream office for me – just throw in some Doctor Who and Supernatural goodies and I’ll be happy as a clam.  This isn’t a red hot, fiery passionate story.  It’s a slow burn, quiet smolder of one.  The chemistry wasn’t noticeable but the connection was.    I have to admit that I struggled with connecting with Chloe and if it wasn’t for Reardon, I probably would have put the book down.  His adorable reactions to everything geek and the tender way he was with Chloe kept me invested.


This isn’t a hugely dramatic book though there is a small amount of drama.  The relationships are definitely complicated.  But whose family isn’t these days?  This was definitely a light, easy read that in the end was enjoyable.  If you like sweet romances, I’d definitely pick this one up.  -Peace and Love, Buxom J

EXCERPT: 

Crazy tall, with blond, perfectly styled hair and bright-blue eyes, Reardon Lewis was not a hard man to look at. In fact, sometimes I would catch sight of him and my body would react in a completely unexpected way. Kind of like it is now… I was aware of the heat coming off his body, his shoulders so large that they were barely a centimeter away from mine, as he slouched into the seat, probably trying to reach some level of comfort. His hands were palm down on his thighs, and were so very large that just looking at them seemed to cause something inside of me to start twitching. Then there was his smell. Good Lord on earth, it was heavenly. I’d caught a whiff every now and then, but at this proximity the bright, clean smell of him seemed to wrap around me in a warm hug. “Chloe?” he asked, and I snapped out of my scent-induced stupor, and realized he’d asked me something. “I’m sorry, what?” I asked, hoping he didn’t suspect that I was having a physical reaction to his presence. I clenched my thighs together and started counting to twenty, hoping to make the tingle go away. “I asked if this is the first time you’re seeing it.” “Seeing what?” I asked dumbly. “Star Wars,” he replied with a chuckle, then narrowed his eyes at me. “Are you okay?”

TOO TEMPTING Synopsis:

Gabriel "Gabe" Lewis retired from the NFL and returned home to Cherry Springs. He combined his passion for football with camping and is now the owner of a football camp for teens. His summers are dedicated to spending time with family and teaching his campers about the sport he loves.

Zoey Zahn is a quirky, introverted writer and self-proclaimed geek. When she's asked if she’ll accompany her nephew, Christopher, to camp, Zoey agrees, envisioning quiet evenings of writing in the great outdoors. After she stumbles upon Gabe, however, quiet evenings alone are the last thing on her mind.

The chemistry between Gabe and Zoey is undeniable, but as camp ends, a brewing storm causes their blooming relationship to fumble. All Gabe knows is that Zoey is Too Tempting to deny, and he's determined to overcome the obstacles between them to be the man she deserves.

Too Tempting is the first in an all-new small town romance series by Bethany Lopez. Follow the Lewis cousins of Cherry Springs, the kind of place where there are festivals for every occasion and everyone knows your business, as they learn about love and loss.

EXCERPT: I was writing a book about teens, magic, and destiny, but all that kept flowing out of me were hot, sweaty sex scenes, with a hero that looked a helluva lot like Superman. I needed therapy … Or a really good bout of sex. The knock at my door had me whipping my head away from my computer, and my heart literally flipped in my chest when I saw Gabe standing on the other side of the screen door. He was still shirtless! All I could think was, the man had better be single, as I pushed my chair back and walked over to open the door. “Hey,” I managed softly. “You ready?” he asked with a handsome grin, his eyes roaming over my excuse for a bathing suit cover-up. It was a lacy number that really didn’t cover the bikini underneath at all. I’d noticed him checking me out, in between the moments that I was checking him out. I didn’t jog, do yoga, and torture myself with workout DVDs for nothing. It was time for me to step up my game and take matters into my own hands.
