Those mistakes had cost him Agent Ana Sorin, and he would never forget that. Fin had never treated a woman the way he had her, and he never would again. He just wished he could tell her that someday. Ana had spent six years recovering from the nightmare explosion she’d shared with her former partner Fin. When Fin walks into the St. Louis FBI building where she’d rebuilt her career, Ana was at a loss for words. Not to mention she didn’t have a clue what to do next with the tall, good looking man who was about to become her boss! Too many issues had been left unresolved between Ana and Fin and between them and the man responsible for the bomb that had nearly killed them both. Too many things had just been left WAITING for all of them. They had waited long enough…

I am loving her foray into the paranormal realm with Moonchuckle Bay. I like the idea of a place where paranormal can live in peace, and in the open, while tourists think it is all part of the town's movie productions. In this story, Amber is on the run from a deranged stalker. She follows her brother's last wishes to deliver a letter to his best friend, Samuel. Her brother has asked Samuel to protect her. A job that is not unpleasant for either of them. The romance was sweet, and funny, with a bit of suspense thrown in. Loads of fun! The Artist Cries Wolf was especially appropriate for the day after Halloween. I found myself wishing Moonchuckle Bay was a real town, just for all of the funny gimmicks that they have for the tourists. I will definitely be on the lookout for more books in this series. Content: clean (some kissing, mild violence, smelly trolls) You must read!! And I must re-read! (By Kindle Customer on November 2, 2016) I love Heather Horrocks, and this book is no exception, I like that you can see where its going without it being completely predictable. Such a great story line, I look forward to hearing more about these townsmonsters :) in Moonchuckle Bay. 5-STAR REVIEW OF PRIDE AND PRECIPITATION: Jennifer English Rose Reviews Clean Romances This was a cute story with some ties to that Austen classic which the title reminds us of. A fun, light trip through small-town news, this book pulled you into the story. With several fun side characters, the story left itself open for many other interlocked stories. With a fun plot and sweet characters, it's a refreshing bit of fun and sweet romance. This one made me smile and definitely made me laugh at several points. With a quick wit and some good conflict, the characters had me falling in love along with them. Definitely a good book to take on vacation or snuggle up on a cold winter night. REVIEW OF BAH, HUMBUG (Christmas Street Romantic Comedy Christmas Novella #1): “This isn't a book; it’s magic."
