THE LOOK OF LOVE
Chloe Peterson is having a bad night. A really bad night. The large bruise on her cheek can attest to that. And when her car skids off the side of a wet country road straight into a ditch, she's convinced even the gorgeous guy who rescues her in the middle of the rain storm must be too good to be true. Or is he?
As a successful photographer who frequently travels around the world, Chase Sullivan has his pick of beautiful women, and whenever he's home in San Francisco, one of his seven siblings is usually up for causing a little fun trouble. Chase thinks his life is great just as it is--until the night he finds Chloe and her totaled car on the side of the road in Napa Valley. Not only has he never met anyone so lovely, both inside and out, but he quickly realizes she has much bigger problems than her damaged car. Soon, he is willing to move mountains to love--and protect--her, but will she let him?
My Review
Great debut for this new series, a large, fun and very united family led by a great woman that alone has raised eight children
Chase is a professional photographer who loves photographing his family events. While going in the vineyard of his brother Marcus for a photo shoot meets a girl in trouble: during a strong storm her car went off the road and no longer restart. Chase finds her out of the car wet and and can not help but help her. At the beginning she is reticent then accepts his help and the proposal to spend the night in his brother's vineyard. Chloe has no money and is running away from her ex-husband, is very suspicious but Chase knows how to calm her and reassure her. She is very attracted to him but she is scared. Chase's sweetness will heal her wounds?
Chase is charming and very protective, I loved the way he woos Chloe respecting her times and pushing her fears. Chloe was really hurt by men, especially from her former husband. She is a strong and determined woman but she is become frail because of a violent man.
I love big families and I was really excited to know the Sullivans, I can't wait to learn more about the other brothers.
It is a very sweet and romantic story with a great chemistry between the two protagonists
FROM THIS MOMENT ON
For thirty-six years, Marcus Sullivan has been the responsible older brother, stepping in to take care of his seven siblings after their father died when they were children. But when the perfectly ordered future he's planned for himself turns out to be nothing but a lie, Marcus needs one reckless night to shake free from it all.
Nicola Harding is known throughout the world by only one name - Nico - for her catchy, sensual pop songs. Only, what no one knows about the twenty-five year old singer is that her sex-kitten image is totally false. After a terrible betrayal by a man who loved fame far more than he ever loved her, she vows not to let anyone else get close enough to find out who she really is...or hurt her again. Especially not the gorgeous stranger she meets at a nightclub, even though the hunger - and the sinful promises - in his dark eyes make her want to spill all her secrets.
My Review
I could not wait to returning to Napa Valley and learn more about Marcus, the eldest of Sullivan's large family. It was a reading, enjoyable, light, very fun and intriguing, perfect as summer reading.
Nico is a pop star but is also a simple and very lonely girl. Marcus is the pillar of the Sullivan family, he was about to marry before finding his girl in bed with another. Now what he needs is a night of pure fun. Nico also looks for the same thing. But the night they spend together will change them forever.
Nico and Marcus are wonderful people, perfect together. He is the largest of eight kids, his father died when they were little and he became the reference point and support of his whole family. She is a sexy, simple and gentle girl, naïve to trust the wrong people
A beautiful love story, it's a real page-turner.
CAN’T HELP FALLING IN LOVE
Gabe Sullivan risks his life every day as a firefighter in San Francisco. But after learning a brutal lesson about professional boundaries, he knows better than to risk his heart to his fire victims ever again. Especially the brave mother and daughter he saved from a deadly apartment fire...and can't stop thinking about.
Megan Harris knows she owes the heroic firefighter everything for running into a burning building to save her and her seven-year-old daughter. Everything except her heart. Because after losing her navy pilot husband five years ago, she has vowed to never suffer through loving - and losing - a man with a dangerous job again.
My Review
Each book in this series is a pleasant discovery and it is also fun to meet again the protagonists of other books.
During a terrible fire Gabe risks his life to save Megan and her daughter Summer. She has lost everything but the smile and sweetness of her little girl give her the strength to face this new and difficult test. Megan and Gabe are attracted to each other but don't want to have a relationship: she has not yet recovered from her husband's death and Gabe had a bad experience with a relationship with a woman who he had rescued. Will they be able to resist temptation?
Megan is strong and determined, is proud to have grown up her wonderful little girl alone. She's a survivor, never gives up. Gabe is generous, willing to risk his life every day to save people. Summer is a very cute and smart little girl, tender and funny, really adorable, impossible no to attach to her. I also loved Mary, a present mother, sweet but not intrusive.
This is such an enjoyable story, well written in an easy-to-read style that is just what I need at the end of a busy day.
