Restless in Carolina by Tamara Leigh
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This one was my favorite of the Southern Discomfort series. Sadly it is the last of the series. I've grown to really like the Pickwick family. Like the other two this one had me laughing at times in the book. The antics of Bridget's niece and nephew kept me in stitches. I like the romance in this one better than the previous. I think Bridget and J.C. had chemistry from the get-go.

Take a Chance by Shelley Shepard Gray

I have read all of Shelley Shepard Gray's Amish books and all of her western series which are in the Christian category. When I saw Take a Chance the first book in the Bridgeport Social Club series on Netgalley I knew I wanted to read it because of the author. It was not listed in the Christian category and the reason was the book had quite a bit of profanity in it by the main male hero in the story. The heroine did not curse any. Normally I would give this book a four star rating but because of the profanity I will have to ding it and give the rating a 3 star. I was at least happy that the hero did not take God's name in vain or use the F word. 

This story involved two love stories. There is recently moved to town landscaper Kurt Holland and school teacher Emily Springer. Also there is the story of Kurt's teen brother Sam and his girlfriend Kayla. I really like Sam and Kayla's story. I love how he stood up for her and protected her when some bullies tooks some pictures of her in the locker room and spread them all over the school. I loved how she was able to cry on his shoulder.

I really enjoyed this story but would have enjoyed it better had it not been for the cussing that was not necessary in this story. Thanks to Netgalley and Blackstone Publishers for allowing me to read the digital copy of this book. The opinions are my own and I was not compensated at all. This book will be released September 18, 2018.

Cross Fire by C.C. Warrens
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The suspense continues. Colin is a threat and still is at the end of the book. This will be addressed in the next book. Marx is involved in bringing down some people in drug deals and Holly is caught in the middle. There are a couple of surprise twist at the end of the book. I look forward to reading the next book where I hope that Colin will get his comeuppance for the horrible twisted things he did to Holly when she was a foster child.

I highly recommend this book if you enjoy reading suspense.
