Book Synopsis
Ever since she was a teenager, Grace Parnell has had one ambition: to prove her father's innocence and overturn his prison sentence. That drive led her to become a tough, compassionate lawyer - until the case hits a heartbreaking end. Now Grace is adrift, with no idea how to rebuild her life. It's certainly not the time to fall in love. But from the moment she meets Artemis Tanner, their instant connection is undeniable.

A motor-sports pioneer, Tanner has come to this little coastal town for the racetrack- but he's staying for Grace. Even though the standoffish attorney seems determined to stay out of reach, Tanner doesn't need a law degree to tell that their attraction is very, very mutual. As her visits to the track become more frequent, and as Tanner learns more about Grace's troubled family, he starts to pry open the tiny cracks in her controlled demeanor. Hidden beneath, there's an incredible passion waiting to be set free.

What did I think?

Like: Getting to see old characters.
Dislike: That it took me so long to read!

Would I recommend it?
Even though I still haven't read the second book, I can honestly say that this series, just keeps getting better and better. I LOVED the first book and I love this book just as much. It took me way too long to read this book, I pretty much read this book on my breaks and lunch breaks at work.
Mixed in with all the distractions and the days I wasn't able to read, it took me probably a month from start to finish! Overall I would say it took four to six hours, when I'm in the break room I tend to get distracted and have to re-read spots.

Grace and Tanner were very likable character's, the chemistry between them was there from beginning to end!I really enjoyed the banter between Tanner and Grace, and I love that we get to see a peek into the future for the characters in Book #1 and Book #2. These books can be read as standalone novels, but I highly recommend you read them all.

Overall, I love this series and I really hope there's another book in the series. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves a good romance!

Book Synopsis

After a prominent senator's son is murdered, Capitol K-9 Unit captain Gavin McCord wants answers. The senator was a mentor to Gavin, and he'll stop at nothing to bring the killer to justice. With his team of elite K-9 cops and his loyal dog, Glory, at his side, Gavin discovers that a child at Cassie Danver's nearby foster home may have witnessed the murder. He's drawn to the determined and beautiful woman, but she doesn't want him interviewing her traumatized charges. Yet trusting Gavin is the only way to stay one step ahead of the deadly gunman when Cassie becomes a target.

Capitol K-9 Unit: These lawmen solve the toughest cases with the help of their brave canine partners.

What did I think?

Like: Almost everything.
Dislike: I hate not knowing who the murderer is. Too many unanswered questions.

Would I recommend it?
I really enjoyed this books, the characters, the plot, the suspense. The romance between Gavin and Cassie was very sweet and actually very believable. There were a few moments where I wanted to roll my eyes, but I still loved the romance between them.

However, because of the ending I'm not too happy with the book, but
at the end of the day I enjoyed the book more than I hated it. I hate that I have to buy five more books just to complete the story, but it is what it is. I'm a book lover and eventually I'll buy them and I'm sure I'll enjoy them too.

Overall, I would recommend it if you have the money to spend on a total of six books. If you don't have the money I would say stay away because this is a very catchy story, I finished it last night and  I need more!

Thank you Love Inspired via Netgalley for providing me with this book in exchange for an honest review!

The Memory of Light by Francisco X. Stork

One Week With The Best Man by Andrea Laurence
I've read the first two books in this series and loved them, I wanted to read this one as soon as I finished them but it hadn't been released. I checked back a few months after reading the others and it still hadn't been released. But last month I finally discovered that it had been released and now I am super happy and excited to read it!

Summer's List by Anita Higman
I don't remember how I found this book, but I think it sounds interesting and I would like to read it.

Shattered Rose by Tammy L. Gray
I really want to read more YA and NA, I mostly read romance, so I want to branch out this year and read a bigger variety of books instead of the same thing over and over again.

A Wrinkle In Time  by Madeline L'Engle
Speaking of wanting to read more than just romance, I really want to read more classics, this one looks like a good place to start.

Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe , Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Ever Seen by Christopher McDougall
I think this one is going to be really inspiring and I can't wait to read it.

The Giver by Lois Lowry
I liked the movie version, but I want more, so I'm gonna read the book and get the full story!

American Sniper by Chris Kyle
I actually already bought this one, I just gotta find the time to read it, I think it's gonna have to wait I'm already reading three books at the moment.

Drinking: A Love Story by Caroline Knapp
I love reading anything that has something to do with psychology, mental health, addiction, so now that I've found this book I need to read it!

All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
I also love reading stuff that has anything to do with WW1 and WW2,  it doesn't matter if it's fiction or nonfiction, I just love to see peoples thoughts on that time period.
