Which storm is coming?

The Hurricane - R.J. PrescottEmily McCarthy meets Cormac "the Hurricane" O'Donnell at the cafe where she works.  Then she end up working at the gym where he prepares for his fights.  What she does not know was he was in love with her before they even met.

Emily has problems with trust and men from her past.  Her stepfather beat her and abused her and her mother did nothing.  She moved to a new city with the help of a neighbor and enrolled in college.

Cormac was just blown over even watching her from a distance.  Once they meet, he does everything he can to be her friend.  He wants to be in her life any way that he can.  When she learns to trust him he knows they will have a future together.

Emily and Cormac end up together most days.  He is a good friend to her and their friends in turn become friends also.  When tragedy strikes who can she trust to help protect her from the nightmare of her past?

Such an amazing story.  I am not usually one to read about boxers, but this book just gives you all sorts of feels.  Right from the start I was rooting for them to get together.  This story just kept me laughing throughout.  Cormac and Emily just make sense as a couple.  I give this book a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!

Cherry Pie (Mercury Rising Book 1) by Samantha Kane     Date of Publication: September 16, 2014   Blurb:   You can go home again if you can get a foot in the door.   Mercury Rising, Book 1   A year after packing and moving from L.A. to Mercury, North Carolina, John Ford still hasn't adjusted to the heat. Or to life without his long-time partner. As he fixes up the old house he bought, the quiet becomes his only companion, and he's content with that—until a deep-voiced stranger plants himself under a tree across the street.   Eight years ago, Connor Meecham left someone behind in that house—himself. Now he's back to find the man he used to be, before drugs and prison sent his life careening off the tracks. But it's not his mother's face peering through the window any more. It's a man who seems as lost as Conn himself.   When John learns what the house—and the dying town—mean to Conn, he finds himself opening the door to his heart. Just

This is book #6, in the True North series .  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader understanding of the series, and too avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this compelling series in order. Skye returns to the place she hates the most to help out the sister she always wanted.  When she gets there, tables have turned.  There is now danger if she pushes too far in finding her sister.  Who can she turn to? Benito AKA "Ben" is a blast from the past, who has always had a thing for Skye.  She was the one that got away, and he has no intentions of letting that happen again.  He also has to find her sister and solve his case. While this author is a definite auto purchase, she always brings the goods to the table.  In this story, we get a second chance romance with such heart and heat that every page is a sizzling delight!  I loved the banter, and was eagerly turning each page to get to the next.  I give this book a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***Th
