Review / Release Blitz: Against the Wind (Wayward Sons) by Kait Nolan writing as Harper Jackson


AGAINST THE WIND
Harper Jackson
Release Date: January 31

The last person I expect—or want—to take shelter with as a hurricane descends on Hatterwick Island is Daniel LaRue, the man who broke my heart barely three months ago.

I don't have time for... whatever this is. My medical clinic has been targeted by thieves—hardly a month after returning to my home town. Coming back to the Outer Banks was always the plan after med school, and for a while in residency, I thought I might bring the hot Coast Guardsman with me. Right up until he accepted a new promotion without talking to me.

Turned out he was more of a situationship than anything real.

Except now he’s appeared on my doorstep, declaring he's on the Outer Banks for me, and despite my considerable temper pointed in his direction, he insists on helping me weather the storm. Literally. Stranded together, we have no choice but to deal with the chemistry still sizzling between us. I can’t deny that he still affects me. But as the hours tick by, I start to realize there’s more to his arrival on the island than he’s telling me—and I long ago learned that the secrets of Hatterwick Island are always dangerous.


MY REVIEW


Gabi had to pick herself up and nurse her broken heart these past months after Daniel chose his career over her, over them. Now he's back on the island telling her he's there for her?! Nope. But when a hurricane hits and he's stuck in her clinic with her riding out the storm, her heart and her body are telling her to give him the second chance he seems so intent on. Should she chance another broken heart? Is Daniel really here for her, or is it his career that's still his priority?

Daniel knew almost immediately that he made the wrong choice when he said yes to a promotion without even talking to Gabi about it. It's taken awhile, but he's finally back on the island, and he's going to get her to forgive him and give him a second chance, no matter how long it takes. He might have to take a slight detour to get there, though, when someone related to his case tries to break into Gabi's clinic. If they make it out of this storm, and take down the targets of his task force, he will convince Gabi that she's his priority.


This short novella is fast-paced and takes you right to the heart of Gabi and Daniel's second chance. I wanted to know more about them, about their past, and their present, but I still enjoyed reading how their close proximity forced them to reopen their hearts to each other, and Gabi to give Daniel his second chance. There's a bit of suspense, their chemistry is hot, and it's obvious they're heading for a happy forever.

My book boyfriends go with me everywhere. I prefer them tall, dark, and handsome, but I don’t discriminate. They sweep me off my feet and are always there when I need them—in my purse, in my car, and even in my bathtub. Book boyfriends may not be real, but at least they won’t break my heart… or get another girl pregnant. I don’t do relationships. I get one whiff and run in the opposite direction. It took me seven years to mend my broken heart, and I’m not about to hand it over again. That’s why I can’t fall for Beckett.

Review: Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette (American Revolutionary Tales 2) by Regina Kammer

Review of Winter Interlude: An American Revolutionary Novelette by Regina Kammer Captain Samuel Taylor and Lieutenant Patrick Hamilton recall their first steamy encounter, which was a MFM threesome in a brothel. It morphed into more and now the two are contemplating their futures with the women they love, and their futures with each other. If you think times are hard for the LGBT community now, think of how hard they were during the American Revolution. Winter Interlude is well developed, which is surprising given its short length. I am so interested in knowing what is to become of Samuel and Patrick's forbidden relationship. Do they stay together? Or do they go their separate ways, and live out their lives with their women? Now that they've admitted their love for each other, how impossible would it be for them to be without each other? I have to know, now! If you like MM fiction and/or historical fiction, I highly recommend you give Winter Interlude a read. It...
