Four Christmas Matchmakers
by Cathy Gillen Thacker
Miniseries: Lockharts Lost & Found (Book #2)

She made caring for quadruplets look easy
But looks can be deceiving!
She thought lying would fix everything…
But could he be the truth she needs?

Allison Meadows has got it all under control—her home, her job, her life—so taking care of four-year-old quadruplets can’t be that hard. But when former pro athlete Cade Lockhart shows up to help, it’s clear Allison’s perfect life is a facade. A lie ended Cade’s career, and he won’t lie for anyone…even when Allison’s job is on the line. Still, can four adorable matchmakers create a Christmas miracle?

Flirty rancher Morgan Dalton is all about keeping things casual…until Erica Abernathy moves back to Bronco. She’s sweet, sexy—and about to have a baby all on her own.

But when he snaps up the charming local theater, he doesn’t bargain for tempestuous director Hailey Bravo. Hailey won’t let Roman wreck the thing she holds most dear—and she’s certainly gotten under Roman’s notoriously thick skin. As the duo spar and sparks fly, Roman’s surprised to find that Hailey’s the perfect missing piece for his family. But how can he convince her that this partnership’s for keeps?

My Review:

Home for the Baby’s Sake
Christine Rimmer

 

Christine Rimmer’s latest is a sweet with heat small town romance. She gives readers a fast paced steamy story with a likeable couple, believable obstacles, outstanding costars and an adorable little boy set in a realistic small town locale. The audience will race through this steady paced story, long time series fans will appreciate the past series character check ins and new fans will love the fact that they can enjoy this as a stand-alone.

Hailey Bravo is happy directing the children’s performances at the local theater in her small Oregon town, however now everything is on hold until the theater’s new owner lets everyone know what lies ahead. The new owner just happens to be a very successful very handsome real estate developer who wants to turn the theatre into a boutique hotel. She’s hoping she can change his mind.

Roman Marek moved back to Valentine Bay with his mom and small son, he’s a two time loser in love and marriage but when he meets the beautiful, opinionated theatre director he’s willing to see if the third time really is a charm and he’s willing to up the ante by giving her something she wants, her beloved theatre. He just hopes his plan doesn’t come back to bite him in the butt.
