This cover is SMOKIN' hot! A excellent representation of the hero found within. Attractive and eye-catching (LOVE the pink) typography. I think the composition is thrown off a bit by the placement of the text but otherwise a splendid cover IMO.

I was really looking forward to this one since I first read about BEAR in TRU BLUE. Alas this one ended up just being MEH for me. I felt like nothing happened the entire book. It just dragged on and on, and I really struggled with it holding my interest.



Chrystal, I found annoying with her hot/cold routine and her "I am not ready yet." It wasn't helped by the fact we don't even get full sex until 70% into the book. Bear although a perfect book boyfriend just wasn't that exciting for me. Was he thoughtful...yes. Was he patient....yes (too much at times IMO.) Was he sexy...yes. He was all those things but none of that translated into any hot chemistry between him and Chrystal. I got SO tired of his constant asking "Can I kiss you?" "Can I touch you?" "Is this ok?" "Can I take your panties off?" I get it she went through something four years prior and maybe it makes me an unfeeling bitch but by the time they FINALLY get around to having sex I had lost interest chapters earlier.

On the positive side even though this was a miss for me I did enjoy seeing little glimpses of the other Whiskey Brothers and Dixie. We also get some scenes with Gemma and Tru and the adorable kids. I am definitely open to giving the next book a try.

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free for a Blog Tour in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Thank you to Lisa for letting me take part in this blog tour. I am a huge fan of Melissa and the whole Love in Bloom Series. I was actually surprised to see that this book isn't technically part of the series but is a stand alone.

If you have read Tru Blue or River of Love then you have already met the Whiskey family and their bar. In this book though we focus more on Bear. Bear runs Whiskey's Autoshop and works shifts in the family bar. He has had his eye on Crystal since he first saw her 8 months ago. Since then he has been acting like they are a couple and telling Crystal he's hers.

Crystal however is holding back and he can't work out why. It's obvious to everyone that they want each other so why is she pushing him away? Crystal has had a tough life. She has been through some of the worst most heartbreaking things imaginable and has come out the other side stronger and more determined than ever.

Bear sweet, sweet Bear. When his father fell ill Bear took it upon himself to look after the family business. When his uncle passed away he took on the autoshop too. Bear really feels the pressure and responsbility of looking after the family businesses. What Bear realy wants to do however is to design his own motorbikes. Motorbikes havebeen his passion since he was young but life got in the way. Our Bear is like a lychee tough and hard on the outside but soft and sweet in the middle.

I won't ruin the story but the epilogue was too darn sweet.

I really adored this book and I hope that we get to see more from the Whiskey family.
