About this ebook
NO PLACE LIKE HOME
For Glory Parsons, "home for the holidays" wasn't exactly the stuff of sing-a-longs and sleigh rides. In fact, she dreaded it. Dreaded having to face the things she'd losther brother, a casualty of war; and Jesse Bainbridge, a casualty of her own weakness. She'd never been able to tell Jesse the reason she'd left him abruptly ten years ago, after she'd promised to love him forever. And he certainly didn't seem open to talking about it now.
Jesse had too much on his plate to get involved with Glory Parsons. He was the sheriff of Pearl Lake and responsible for his orphaned niece. So why couldn't he stay away from the woman? She drew him, just as she always had. But there would be no kisses under the mistletoe for them until he knew the truth. If he was strong enough to face it.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I was disappointed in Glory, Glory, a reissue by Linda Lael Miller, a favourite author of mine. However I thoroughly enjoyed the romantic suspense in Snowbound with the Bodyguard by Carla Cassidy. I will be looking for more books by Cassidy. Review based on an ARC received from NetGalley.

Snowbound With The Bodyguard by Carla Cassidy 4 starsWild West Bodyguard miniseriesThis story had drama, suspense, romance and danger. Also had love scenes that I skipped over.Janette Black is a high school dropout waitress on the run. She is smart and caring. She dropped out of school to nurse her grandmother. She is scared now for herself and her baby. She gets a ride to a few towns away where there is a bus that she hopes will get her and her son away. When she gets settled she plans to bring her grandmother to her.She falls a sleep while waiting for the bus to come but because of the weather it will be another day at least. She walks to pay phone in snow and calls motel but it is full up. She sees another business with lights on and hopes they can help her.The West Bodyguard is only business with lights. Dalton lost track of time and weather and was on his way out when he runs into Janette she offers to hire him for the night protecting her from the weather.Dalton takes her to his apartment two blocks over and spends the night at his landlords. He realizes that Jane has lied to him and is scared of something. But with the town closed down and snowing so hard he can keep her safe for the night.It would be hard to have no one to trust. She can't go to the police since it was a Sheriff she is running from. Jane will do anything to protect her son.I would like to read other books in the Wild West bodyguard series.It was very fast paced story. Dalton makes a great hero, he has been hurt in the past but he is determined to help Jane.I was given this ebook to read and asked to give honest review of it from NetGalley and Harlequin.publication: September 24th 2013 by Harlequin 416 pages (first published 1990) ISBN:0373180721
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Two short romantic tales of heroic men/women helping others while they fight their own demons.
The first is about a young girl who had to give up her child for adoption. She returns to her hometown to find her daughter being raised by her natural father. Her past and her present collide revealing secrets that should have never been.
The second story is about another young mother on the run from the sherif of her home town. She fears everyone, his ties are vast and "the law". She dropped out of HS to care for her ailing Grandmother and doesn't have much to secure her future. She hires a body guard to help her and he begins the process that just may save her and her grandmother.
Both stories while short where very uplifting even with all the drama. A great quick beach read.
