A Ruff Royal Christmas Karen Schaler


     
Description:
Princess Ava’s perfectly planned Christmas Eve charity event erupts into chaos when she loses Stormy, the Queen’s mischievous new border collie. With Christmas fast approaching, Ava must team up with Justin, a laid-back American dog trainer who’s used to wrangling strays, not royal runaways.

Sparks fly as Justin's rule-breaking free spirit clashes with Ava's determination to follow royal protocol. But when their search for Stormy takes them through glittering Christmas markets, festive holiday activities, and snowy winter wonderlands, an undeniable chemistry builds between them.

The more time they spend together, the harder it is to fight their growing attraction. But Ava’s already promised to a duke. Will she stay on the safe, traditional path…or risk it all and follow her heart?

This feel-good royal holiday romance is a Christmas romantic comedy packed with humor, heart, and holiday spirit, and a royal secret that flips the script. Because the best love stories can't be planned, and they never follow the rules.

Perfect for fans of Karen’s Netflix sensation 
A Christmas Prince, her novel A Royal Christmas Fairy Tale, her novella Royal Extra After, and Casey McQuiston's, Katharine McGee's, Teri Wilson’s, and Jasmine Guillory’s royal romantic comedies.

My Review:
At first I thought oh man Ava is going to Miss stuck up with Miss know it all, and let me tell you I was wrong. She was so fun to read, while she kept her guard up with everyone as you read the story it makes a tons of sense why. I love how she serious when need be but also willing to laugh when she made mistakes that were not a big deal. Justin was so laid back, go with the flow but also struggled with a choice that would change his life and helping the queen he hoped would help but he did not know what he was getting into. I loved the queen, Lydia, Edgar, Stormy and Samuel I feel they all played such a huge part in the story and their personality shined so much which had you laughing through out the story because of the antics. Overall this was a fun read and the author did keep this a clean read and I would say well worth the read.

Need You for Keeps Marina Adair


What's the book about:

When it comes to caring for the furry residents of St. Helena, California, groomer and pet rescuer Shay Michaels can handle anything. Humans are another story, though—especially Deputy Jonah Baudouin. He’s the town’s resident superhero: upright, uptight, and jaw-droppingly gorgeous, even when he’s investigating complaints about Shay’s beloved foster animals. And that spells danger for Shay, a free spirit who can’t risk trusting the wrong person again.
Jonah and Shay have been circling each other ever since she came to town, and he’s running out of reasons to not kiss her senseless. But this deputy is a straight shooter with his eye on the sheriff’s badge. He can’t afford to get involved with Shay, a chaos magnet with luscious curves who’s liable to turn his career—and his life—upside down. He enforces laws. She breaks them—repeatedly. Keeping her out of trouble is becoming a full-time job…and it’s one he hopes is never going to end.

My thoughts on the book:
 I just had so much fun reading this book. I would have to say if this was a movie it would be labeled a romantic comedy. Shay is outgoing, loving, caring but the most free spirited person, she seems to have a few secrets and maybe running from something. She says everyone needs to be loved and how true she shows herself in this book, you feel like you are reading a letter from one of your good friends and just catching up. Jonah on the other had is running he trust no one or at least that what he wants people to think. He has heart but its damaged and he is a no non sense kind of guy, you just want to keep doing what he's doing and what he's been hired to do and he wants to avoid Shay and her craziness that she seems to be around every time he turns around.
I had a hard time putting this book down there was so much fun and excitement through out, but all and all the Chemistry in the book was there from page one to the last page. There was no real low points in the book there are some times you find your self wanting to choke one or two of the character for there craziness...lol.  I think I have to say that this book would not be good for young reads as it does contain adult situations and strong language. I would say hands down this is a really really fun read and worth the read overall. You really can't go wrong.
