I really liked this; it made me laugh, cry and want to smack Joe a few times, but he tended to look pained enough without my help.

It was certainly a mystery and I was easily drawn into it from the first few chapters. Who'd want to kill a (horrible) old woman? A well known member of the community? I was certainly stumped since I knew it couldn't be Rose, who probably had the motive but was too nice a person.

I really liked both Joe and Rose and was urging them to get together from early on especially when he was being so nice and helpful to her after her mums murder while everyone else treated her like crap. Not the nicest little town to live in.

It wasn't hard to figure something weird was going on with Joe with all his pained looks and disappearing acts and I was intrigued as to what it would be. I wasn't disappointed.

Looking forward to reading more of this series!
  
3.5 stars.

I saw the cover a while ago on Amazon and because I like a good cover thought "I want to read that." I didn't even read the synopsis, just downloaded it free.

So when I started this I had very little idea of what it was about. I can say I wasn't disappointed.

The story was fairly easy to get into and I was intrigued by the sexy Rick and the affects he had on Grateful as well as how he managed to do half of what he did (don't want to spoil it by giving the details away!).

Then comes Logan. I couldn't quite decided if I liked him or not. He came across as being very helpful but there was also a bit of jealousy going on too.

I feel like I can't give much away without spoiling it but it's quite a fun read filled with paranormal elements and romance that will leave you questioning for the first half and "oohing" over the second.

You should give this a try!

I really enjoyed this. It was both heart-warming and heart breaking at times.

I have to say I liked every character in this, apart from the bad guys of course.

Nichol was a hard working guy who gave up Edinburgh to help his Granda when his mum and brother died and you had to feel sorry for him because he never got thanked for his efforts or got the chance to mourn their loss. Cameron started off as a scared guy on the run but blossomed into a very helpful, very hard working guy who came to love both Nichol and Harry, though for different reasons. Harry was your typical brusque old man who never showed his feelings and in the end, I'm sure he regretted that. Archie, was your well to do cop who only ended up causing more problems and Shona was your tough farm girl who was taking the reigns after losing her abusive husband.

Together they were a very lively bunch and they brought a smile to my face one way or another.
