BLURB
I should absolutely, under no circumstance develop a crush on my co-worker--the grumpy, wolf-daddy, much older high school baseball coach.


First problem? He's twenty years older than me. Second? I've never even been kissed. Third? When I ask him to teach me, he said yes.

In my defense, Grey Brooks is a great coach. As an elementary school librarian, I know more about books than swinging hammers or baseball bats. I thought I was a lost cause, but from showing me how to throw a baseball to fixing up my rickety old house, all he does is teach me. And somewhere between the lessons and the laughter, we become friends. So asking him to teach me to kiss...etc, just makes sense. Right? Right?

He makes rules. Keep it casual. Keep it secret. Keep the feels in check.

But in a small town where everyone's watching, nothing stays secret for long. Every rule we break blurs the line between lessons and love, the rumors are getting louder, and Grey thinks he's going to ruin me.

He might be right. But not for the reasons he thinks.

Because there's more than gossip hiding in Roseville. And by the time I see the danger coming, the only person who can save me is the one everyone says I should stay away from.

MY REVIEW


Molly's finally out from her parents' oppressive control and has moved to a small town, taken the librarian position, and bought a fixer upper. She has always been so sheltered - think homeschooled, the whole nine yards - that she lacks experience in all sorts of things. Who better to ask for coaching from her new baseball coach, the seriously hot older baseball coach that she has an intense attraction to. If Grey says yes...she'll never be the same.


Grey has resisted the ray of sunshine that is Molly for as long as he could, but now that she's asked him to coach her, first in baseball, then in drinking, now in...other stuff, his restraint has snapped. Oh he knows it's wrong - he's far too old and grumpy for her, but he simply cannot resist her any longer. But when the town turns on them, then her parents, then outside forces, will the darkness he doesn't let out often, get the best of him?


I need me a wolf daddy! Just don't tell my husband 😉 Grey is intense and grumpy and entirely certain he's not good enough, or good for, his sunshiney Molly. He and Molly have deliciously spicy chemistry and such a beautiful emotional connection. He becomes her rock, especially near the end with her parents and the surprise twist did their best to hurt her. But though he's her rock, she's strong all on her own. I've been enjoying this small town series of Staci's so much and sweet sunshiney Molly and her grumpy wolf daddy have made me love it even more.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Instead, I somehow ended up living in Evan Ricci’s house. The single dad now owned a bunch of properties and one of them was the place I’d rented. He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
