"Former military man and member of a royal family Callum Redmon can't deny his sense of responsibility. So when his cousin's latest love interest claims to have a stalker, Cal reluctantly meets with the young woman and her mother. He wants to write off the situation as a complete farce--if only his feelings for another member of the household could be as easily dismissed. Since her father's death seventeen years ago, Juniper Rose has been at the cruel beck and call of her stepmother and stepsister. Her fantasies of escape mean leaving behind her father's beloved home, but enough is enough: when Cal offers her a way out sooner rather than later, June takes the leap. Cal's home in Maine with his military brothers seems like the safest place to start fresh. But as Cal and June's fairy-tale romance blossoms into something real, they find that the dangers stalking them may have been real all along"-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Game of Chance #2
Cinderella met her fella and left the wicked steps in her dust…or…was it the prince who found his princess so they could live happily forever together? Great modern retelling of a favorite fairy tale with twists and turns aplenty.
What I liked:
* Juniper “June” Rose: Cinderella of the story, lost her father in her teens, lived with her wicked stepmother and stepsister for almost two decades, never lost her kindness, loved her father, ready to escape when the prince arrived, willing to take a leap of faith
* Callum “Cal” Redmon: prince of obscure country, retired Delta Force, survived brutal torture with his team, in the tree business with his ex-military buddies, lives in Maine, sent by his family to DC where he meets his princess, aware, listens to his gut, insightful, rather taken with Juniper
* That I could absolutely detest and despise the wicked steps Elaine & Carla AND their henchman, Tim
* The way the relationship developed between June and Cal and the way they managed to communicate and grow together
* Finding out how Riggs, JJ, and Bob were doing along with Carlise and April
* Attending the fun wedding of Riggs/Chappy and Carlise and seeing Baxter again
* The way the Hill’s House community came together when a life was on the line
* The genuine niceness of June and Cal and feeling they belonged together
* Thinking about if/when JJ and April will end up together
* The lead into the next book that will be Bob/Kendrick’s story
* The plot, pacing, setting, conclusion, and writing
What I didn’t lie:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* Thinking about how self-centric and evil some people can be and the impact they have on others
* Thinking about what Cal and his teammates endured and the horrible years June spent with her steps
