Book Review: Undeniably Yours

Undeniably Yours
Becky Wade

After her father dies, Meg Cole returns home to his ranch to take over the business and ranch that she has inherited. Doing so requires her to work alongside Bo Porter, the man who runs the the family racehorse farm. Meg is hesitant to begin a relationship again, but will overcoming her past help her begin a new future with Bo?

I had read a book by Stephanie Wade before, and I enjoyed this book, too. I thought that her characters were well developed yet complex individuals. Despite Becky's obvious financial security and social status that can sometimes make her hard to relate to for readers, she was still down to earth and likable, and her relationship with Bo seemed natural and sweet. It was definitely worth the read, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes contemporary romances.

Busy Semester=A Little Behind on Book Reviews

Into the Whirlwind
Elizabeth Camden

Mollie Knox is a businesswoman who has met her match in a determined lawyer, Zack Kazmarek. After years of only doing business together, the catastrophic events of the Great Chicago Fire bring them together in an entirely different way. As they try to heal and rebuild from the fire, Zack and Mollie have to learn to adapt to the changes in their new lives. Amidst tragedy, pain, and hard choices, can a relationship rise from the ashes?

I started this book but had to put it down for a little while when life got busy. However, when I restarted it, I could not put it down. With any book about the Chicago Fire, I expected the climax to happen towards the end of the story. Therefore, I was a little shocked when I realized that this isn't a story about surviving the fire itself. The real surprise in this book is that it begins with the fire, and the real story truly happens afterwards. I kind of expected that it would be boring after the fire, but it wasn't. Camden continues to develop her characters, and makes readers cringe as they realize the harshness of what it took for Chicagoans to begin to heal from such a tragedy. Any reader who loves romance and adventure will love this book, and I would highly recommend any of her other novels, too.
