A satisfying end to a romance series

Nobody but You by Jill Shalvis

July 9, 2019 by Malin Leave a Comment

This is the third and final book in the Cedar Ridge series. I have reviewed the first two books in the series, Second Chance Summer and My Kind of Wonderful for previous Cannonballs. You don’t have to have read these to get the book to make sense, but it has more emotional resonance if you’ve at least read book 2 (which is about this hero’s twin brother). Jacob and Hudson Kincaid’s mother started getting dementia at an early age, and it became very difficult for the twins to manage the household with […]

One of her first items is skiing in the Rocky Mountains, so she goes to the Cedar Ridge skiing resort, but mis-reads the map and ends up […]

A nice contemporary romance without too much angst

June 28, 2016 by Malin Leave a Comment

Lily Danville grew up in Cedar Ridge, Colorado, and loved hiking the mountain trails or climbing the rock faces in the summer, or skiing the challenging slopes in the winter. She was happy there, until tragedy struck and she lost half her family over the course of a few weeks. She’s never forgiven herself and wasn’t ever planning on returning. Having lost her job in a fashionable salon in San Diego and pretty much been blacklisted in the industry, she desperately needs a job, and […]
