Not Quite Mine (Not Quite #2)
Not Quite Mine (Not Quite #2)
by Catherine Bybee
SUMMARY
Gorgeous hotel heiress Katelyn "Katie" Morrison seems to have it all.
But when she crosses paths with Dean Prescott - the only man she's ever
loved - at her brother's wedding, Katie realizes there's a gaping hole in
her life. After the ceremony she gets an even bigger surprise when
someone abandons a baby girl on her doorstep. Determined to keep
the newborn until she learns who her mother is, Katie has her hands
full and doesn't need Dean snooping around, especially when his presence
stirs feelings she thought were long gone.
Dean Prescott knows Katie is lying to him when he discovers a baby
is living with her. He shouldn't care what the woman who broke his
heart is up to...and he most certainly shouldn't still be aching for her.
Yet Dean can't ignore the need to protect Katie - or the desire to be
near her every chance he gets. But when he and Katie solve the
mystery surrounding the baby, their second chance for happiness
could be shattered forever.

Mystery Girl: A Novel
Mystery Girl: A Novel
by David Gordon
SUMMARY
When Sam Kornberg’s wife, Lala, walks out on him, he’s an
unemployed used-book store clerk and failed experimental
novelist with a broken heart. Desperate to win her back, he
takes a job as assistant detective to the enigmatic Solar Lonsky,
a private eye who might be an eccentric and morbid genius or
just a morbidly obese madman.
It’s a simple tail job, following a beautiful and mysterious lady
around L.A., but Sam soon finds himself helplessly falling for his
quarry and hopelessly entangled in a murder case involving Satanists,
succubi, underground filmmakers, Hollywood bigshots, Mexican
shootouts, video-store geekery, and sexy doppelgangers from
beyond the grave. A case that highlights the risks of hardcore
reading and mourns the death of the novel—or perhaps just the
decline of Western Civilization.
Mystery Girl is a thriller about the dangers of marriage and a detective
story about the unsolvable mysteries of love, art, and other people

Starry Night: A Christmas Novel
by Debbie Macomber
SUMMARY
Carrie Slayton, a big-city society-page columnist, longs to write more
serious news stories. So her editor hands her a challenge: She can cover
any topic she wants, but only if she first scores the paper an interview
with Finn Dalton, the notoriously reclusive author.
Living in the remote Alaskan wilderness, Finn has written a megabestselling

anyone in the press, and no one even knows exactly where he lives.
Digging deep into Finn’s past, Carrie develops a theory on his whereabouts.
It is the holidays, but her career is at stake, so she forsakes her family
celebrations and flies out to snowy Alaska. When she finally finds Finn,
she discovers a man both more charismatic and more stubborn than she
even expected. And soon she is torn between pursuing the story of a
lifetime and following her heart.

Little Failure: A Memoir OCTOBER 2013
Little Failure: A Memoir
SUMMARY(GOODREADS)
After three acclaimed novels—The Russian Debutante’s Handbook,
Absurdistan, and Super Sad True Love Story—Gary Shteyngart turns
to memoir in a candid, witty, deeply poignant account of his life so far.
Shteyngart shares his American immigrant experience, moving back and
forth through time and memory with self-deprecating humor, moving
insights, and literary bravado. The result is a resonant story of family
and belonging that feels epic and intimate and distinctly his own.
Born Igor Shteyngart in Leningrad during the twilight of the Soviet Union,
the curious, diminutive, asthmatic boy grew up with a persistent sense of
yearning—for food, for acceptance, for words—desires that would follow
him into adulthood. At five, Igor decided to become a writer, and his
grandmother paid him a slice of cheese for every page he produced. He
wrote Lenin and His Magical Goose, his first novel.
Shteyngart’s loving but mismatched parents dreamed that he would become a
lawyer or at least a “conscientious toiler” on Wall Street, something their
distracted son was simply not cut out to do. Fusing English and Russian,
his mother created the term Failurchka—Little Failure—which she applied
to her son. With love. Mostly.

~My review~
By Ana Rodriguez.
Once I started reading My Lucky Groom by author Ginny Baird, it was nearly impossible for me to put it down and stop reading.
This book is a short story in Ginny's Summer Grooms Series.( Book #2)
Back to my review. Ventura finds herself in Washington, DC. for an opportunity in finding a job in journalism because she has a master's degree in journalism. Leaving from home for the first time and feeling overwhelmed being on her own,Ventura felt a bit scared.
Being new to Washington and now sitting in a café were she was serviced by a waitress named Mary.
A clumsy accident in front of her taking place. Ventura hears a mans voice.
“I’m sorry! Are you all right?”, he asked.
Ventura nods her head completely taken off guard watching.
I found this scene a bit funny as I read it, I was laughing out loud as Mary the waitress shooed the man away from Ventura. Mary was being protective of Ventura. Girls have to stick together. Every character had a unique playing role in this story, that came perfectly.
The character I loved the most was Mary in this story. Mary was like Ventura’s savor taking her in and give her a place to live. I found Mary supporting role in guiding Ventura in any way needed.
Richard Blake a single father and a handsome bachelor in need of a nanny for his kids. Jason the assistant to Richard Blake.
Richard was very grateful to have Jason as an assistant and friend.
Jason would pick up some nanny duties in addition to his demanding job.
To me Ventura seemed a bit naive to the new world in Washington.
Her parents broken marriage pushed her on her new journey adventure in a new city, without a job.
Ventura had a job interview. As she looked at the map she had in her hand she knew she was lost. Ventura was not going to make her interview on time or at all.
“Need help?” a man’s voice asked.
“Richard!”
“So where you headed?”
“I have an interview on K Street.”
I found it funny on how Richard slipped in and told her he had an job opening at home.
Richard explained to Ventura he needed a nanny for his kids.
Ventura turned him down on his job offer.
After having no luck with any job at all Ventura swallows her pride and calls Richard for an interview.
Richard hires Ventura as his new nanny for his five year old twins, Ricky and Elisa.
Ventura’s adventure starts after that in her new nanny job.
Soon she learns Richard’s kids are no angels. Since it’s a short story I don’t want to give it away.
But just let me say that the attraction with Ventura and Richard blooms fully unto a great story.
It’s not every day that I come across a story that I absolutely can’t stop reading.
Having twins of my own as I read, I found myself smiling throughout the story and Ventura's adventures.I think Ginny Baird did great in writing out each character in this book.
While reading this story , I enjoyed on how real the story seemed.
Ventura’s fate was Richard and the love that blossomed was their fate. I finished reading this book with a smile on my face.
I recommend this book for any one up for a great love story.
You'll be happy you did. I was.

JUST IN "Finally Found " BY NICOLE ANDREWS MOORE
Finally Found
by
Nicole Andrews Moore (Goodreads Author)
·
Where one story ends,
often another begins. For some reason, Adam Davenport can’t see past the
ending. The hit and run has forced him to slow down and stop running
from the pain of losing his parents. He has tried to hide behind
meaningless, superficial relationships and even more shallow
friendships, but the time has come to face his loneliness. Now he is
finally ready to start being a family with his brother Sam. However, Sam
and Haley, who was once Sam’s personal assistant, are too busy basking
in their newfound love. Though breaking the rules for the first time
ever has changed Sam’s life for the better, Adam has always broken the
rules, strayed from responsibility, and done as little as he could get
away with.One of the main reasons that he refused to believe that Cammie was more than friend material was because she was impervious to his charms. She was so driven and determined to make her new catering company a success that she couldn’t see past her own dreams. Suddenly, Adam found himself behaving in ways he never imagined. He was working to impress a woman, but more than that, he was working to help make her dreams come true. He soon realizes that there are times in life when giving is more important than taking and when helping someone else is more important than what that person can do to reciprocate. He also learns there are times that the biggest risk is to stop hiding from emotions and to start allowing love to finally be found.
