  Her Reluctant Highlander Husband by Allison B. Hanson My rating: 5 of 5 stars A great addition to the Clan MacKinlay series. I was really looking forward to Bryce's story and it did not disappoint. I really liked Dorie, even though she was wary of her new surroundings she was still a strong woman. There were a few scenes that left me watery-eyed. But it all worked into a surprising HEA. After losing a wife and child years ago, Bryce MacKinlay Campbell has no plans to ever marry again. But his laird has other plans. Since the original war chief can no longer marry the McCurdy laird's daughter the responsibility now falls on him. When Dorie McCurdy, her brother, and a few of their clans' members arrive for the wedding, Bryce mistakes her for a maid because of her shabby attire. After seeing the horrible way they treat her, Bryce vows to protect and provide for her. He'll never be able to give her his heart. Thanks so much to the author, Entangled and NetGalley for ...

  Oh man, I can't believe I forgot to set my blog post for Tuesday!  And why am I getting these double covers? It's so weird. I only read 15 books last month.

Here's the break down: ARCs: 11 KU: 3 Audible Escape: 2 (I miss it so much) Two of those ARCs were physical paperbacks Off to finish my latest ARC! xo Alicia

Playing with Trouble by Amy Andrews is now live!  From pro rugby player to...Manny? Australian rugby pro Cole Hauser has had enough of speculations about his future post-injury. So when a football buddy puts his house in America at Cole's disposal, he jumps at the chance for some peace and anonymity. The plan is perfect--until he discovers he's roomies with a woman who knows how to wield a nail gun and her kid. Awesome. Not. Single mom Jane Spencer is supposed to be spending four weeks alone in the wilds of Colorado rehabbing a house that'll put her business on the map. Instead, her time is overrun by her four-year-old and a grumpy, too-sexy rugby dude whose only goals are to watch ESPN and brood. Awesome. Not. When, surprisingly, McHottie offers to get his ass off the couch and help Jane out with Finn, she's hesitant. But before she knows it, Cole is knee-deep in kid activities during the day and they're both fighting their simmering attraction at night...
