“Reading brings knowledge and knowledge is power; therefore reading is power. The power to know and learn and understand . . . but also the power to dream. Stories inspire us to reach high, love deep, change the world and be more than we ever thought we could. Every book allows us to dream a new dream.” ~~ Emma Chase, Royally Matched (Royally series book #2)

     It seems he and Carmen are at each other’s throats one minute— and on each other’s lips the next. Someone’s gotta give . . .     LUCKY CHARMED Charmed in Texas #2 Sharla Lovelace Releasing July 18th, 2017 Lyrical Shine     Carmen Frost hates honey. And bees.

Or they don’t die at all—as Carmen discovers when she runs into an all too familiar pair of eyes—older, wiser, and just as heart-melting as ever . . .   Sully Hart has had enough of the nomad lifestyle. ...

This is book is #2, in the Charmed In Texas series .  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding and enjoyment of the series, I recommend reading this in order. Sullivan AKA Sully has a past with Carmen.  A past that brings him back and thinking of a future.  When she sees him again, however, there are doubts that will happen. Carmen is not big on her hometown.  She has wanted to be long gone.  She has ties here that keep her coming back.  Her friends, family, and yes even her heart.   This series is just hot!  The characters have great banter, and the heat seems to be turned up on high.  I love the sparks that sizzle and nearly jump off the page.  Second chance romance always seems to be hotter than the simple.  I cannot wait for the next book in the series.  I give this story a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review, by Ne...
