FOOL'S GOLD RETURNS...

Only His
Susan Mallery
Released On Sept 27th, 2011
384 Pages
HQN





As a lover of all Susan Mallery I have read all of her books, and I love the Fool's Gold series. I was so excited for Nevada book after reading both of her sisters love stories, but I just didn't love this one as much as I did the other two.
The relationship between Tucker and Nevada was some what overshadowed by the romance between Denise and Max and then with Will and Jo. The other romances were also thrown together and grew very quickly....I just felt as if I missed out on so much.
Also, we were introduced to Heidi, Annabelle and Charlie, who I felt were also kind of thrown into the story to prepare us for the next installment.
And having Cat jump into the story with all her craziness was not needed. She never explained why she fooled them into sleeping together ten years ago. I never got all my answers about that night and it was almost just forgotten about.
I enjoyed the book....I liked catching up with all of our old Fool's Gold friends... but the whole book felt rushed.... The main love story just got lost in the shuffle and then re-appeared for the last few pages.
I am still very much looking forward to the Christmas Novella and the next three Fool's Gold books coming out next Summer....So keep up the amazing stories Susan....I still love you!

Throwback Thursday Presents...

Falling for Gracie
Susan Mallery
Released March 1, 2005
384 Pages
HQN



First comes love, then comes marriage. . .

  Or that was Gracie's plan, anyway, at the ripe old age of fourteen. She loved eighteen-year-old heartthrob Riley with a desperation that made her a town legend. Even now that she's all grown up, the locals in sleepy Los Lobos won't let her forget her youthful crush.   


. . .but it's not as easy as it looks.

  And how can she, when she's face-to-face with Riley at every turn? The onetime bad boy has come back to town seeking respectability-but the sparks that fly between them are anything but respectable! Gracie's determined to keep her distance, but when someone sets out to ruin both their reputations, the two discover that first love is sometimes better the second time around.

Falling for Gracie is one of my absolute favorites by Susan Mallery. It is actually the second in the Los Lobos Series, the first being Someone Like You. Gracie is the kind of heroine that you immediately feel a connection with. She is smart, funny, hard-working and very much misunderstood. Especially by Riley Whitefield, who you couldn't have paid to have been in the same room with her years ago. But the more that he gets to know the REAL Gracie, he sees that he never really gave her the benefit of the doubt, even if she did put a live skunk in his car as a teenager to stop him from going on a date with another girl!!

The book is laugh out loud funny, romantic and just plain fun!! Pick it up today, or grab it from the Library, but just read it!! You won't be disappointed.

ONLY...a few more weeks!

Only Yours
Susan Mallery
Released August 30, 2011

HQN Publishers




Another score for Susan Mallery and her Fool's Gold Series. Only Yours, the follow up to Only Mine, which will be out in stores at the end of the month, is a hit! Montana Hendrix, therapy dog trainer and one of the famous Hendrix triplets, sets her sights on the new burn specialist, Dr. Simon Bradley. Simon, who is as her sisters say "A sexy, scarred loner", can't stop himself from the overwhelming passion he feels when he sets his eyes on Montana, but he has no plans on staying around in Fool's Gold when his three month assignment is over. Will the town of Fool's Gold be able to keep Simon from leaving, or will he go, taking Montana's heart with him? You will just have to get the next book of the Fool's Gold series to find out!

As a big fan of Susan Mallery I was thrilled when she decided to write more Fool's Gold novels. We all love the closeness of the town folk and we love all the books that have been written so far. I really liked Montana as the heroine. she is strong but has a problem with seeing all the good she posses. Simon is a reclusive loner, and I loved that he felt so much for Montana, but wouldn't let himself bring her down with him to the darkest corners of his mind. For this couple it took a little trust, a lot of love and some steamy sex, but what else can we expect from the wonderful Susan Mallery.

Don't forget to mark your calendars for the release of Only His, the third book of the latest installment of the Fool's Gold Series.
