Tempting the Rancher, Meier Ranch Brothers Book One by Leslie North

January Rose has always been a free spirit and as a teen, dreamed of traveling the world.  The moment she graduated high school, she left Close Call, Texas and the man she loved.

Rancher Nathaniel Meier has always had to put his responsibilities first.  His father died, his mother took off to "find herself" and his brothers are away.  It is his responsibility to run the families cattle ranch.  He struggles with making a profit every year with the bank breathing down his neck.  This year, he needs all the help he can get when the last person he ever thought he would see again comes back - January Rose.

Ten years later, January has roamed the world, sending postcards from exotic locations.  She has searched for that place to call home.  Will she realize that Nat is her home?  Can Nat take a risk to tame the wandering January?

I was amazed by this book.  I loved the characters, from Nat and January to Mona and Wes when he returned home.  The plot was like a rollercoaster of emotion with the tension between Nat and January so thick you could cut it.  I felt like I was living on the Meier ranch.

The Sheikh's Unexpected Wife by Leslie North

Leslie North is one of my favorite contemporary romance authors.  This book is the perfect ending to this wonderful series.  Her characters are so enduring.  I loved how spunky Genni was.  She was willing to marry a stranger so her friend can escape an arranged marriage.  I loved the chemistry between Nasim and Genni.  This was a great book!

What a Highlander's Got To Do by Sabrina York

This was a great read.  I loved the characters.  I have read several of the books in the series when Isobel was younger and she finally got her HEA.  I liked how Nick knew he loved her and Isobel was the one that took a while to realize that she loved Nick.  It is great to have a book where the supporting characters are from other books.  It's like visiting old friends.

This is a highly recommended read!

G is for . . . by L. DuBois

Sejal belongs to Las Palmas along with her Master Sato.  The club has a new game where everyone and their partner is assigned a letter and they must explore the items on the BDSM checklist that start with the letter.  The letter Sejal and Sato draw is "G" and the first item is "given away".  Sato gives Sejal away to Dom Cortland Dowell so he can participate in "H". 

This is the first of the BDSM Checklist books that I have read.  The book was amazing!  I loved the idea of exploring things that are out of one's comfort zone.  I liked how Sejal and Court clicked and how their relationship developed.  I need to go back and get A - E.
