After discovering her boyfriend is gay, nurse practitioner Eva decides it is time for a drastic change.  She signs on at the clinic in a tiny village in Alaska.  When she is chased up a tree by a moose, she is rescued by Lynx, Alaskan Refuge Officer and certified veterinarian.  Lynx is instantly attracted to Eva, even though she’s pretty high maintenance.  Eva’s pretty sure she has the ability to turn guys gay, but Lynx’s extreme masculinity calls to her.  Will their initial sparks be able to survive a matchmaking pet moose and a band of murderous poachers?

 
I liked this book a lot.  City girl meets country boy.  But this city girl’s got a lot of spunk.  Eva’s not one to sit and wait for said country boy to save the day.  A quick read at just over 100 pages, this one made me smile quite a bit-especially the pet moose.

When the Earl of Penwood’s illegitimate daughter, Sophie, is dropped off at his doorstep he chooses to raise her as his ward.  Sophie enjoys a quiet existence in the country until the earl’s new wife Araminta and her two daughters arrive.  When the earl dies, Sophie is forced to become Araminta’s unpaid servant.  Sneaking into Lady Bridgerton’s masquerade ball, Sophie meets Benedict.  And, 300 pages later, they live happily ever after.  An obvious retelling of Cinderella that you can’t help but love, this book left me with a happy sigh at the end.

Wren can’t get out of going back home to be maid of honor in a wedding. Unfortunately, that means she can’t get out of seeing Skip, her childhood best friend and the man who put her in prison 5 years ago. Wren has spent the last 5 years secretly pining for Skip. Skip has spent the same time secretly waiting for Wren to get her life under control so they can spend the rest of their lives together. After their plane crashes, Skip and Wren must spend the night in the shell of their crashed plane waiting to be rescued.

Ah, a plane crash and simmering love that has lasted 5 years. Could there be a better recipe for a good story? And, on a surprising note, the tension in this story does not come from having to survive in the Alaskan wilderness, but from the characters themselves. I enjoyed this quick read and the next book in the series is in my TBR pile.
