About Gifted:

How do things fall apart so easily?   Kate: As a former teacher, my mission is to keep the disadvantaged youth of our city engaged with school. My non-profit has been wildly successful with the kids, but now I'm forty mentors short for the Christmas season. It didn't look like we would be able to find enough help, until Jim Adelson got involved. He may have solved my mentor problem, but he's created another: I can't concentrate with this panty melting God around.   Jim: The community has been good to me. I'd built my successful security business with hard work and determination, and when I got approached to help Kate Monroe's non-profit, it seemed a fitting way to give back. I'd offer to spend time with some kids, but it’s Kate that I find myself wanting to spend time with. With beauty obvious to everyone, and a compassionate heart she wears on her sleeve, she has me reevaluating my priorities.   When the children's Christmas gifts go missing, Jim and Kate are forced together in the hunt. Can true love fight through the drama to find a happy ending?   Gifted is the first book in the holiday series Clear Security Holidays. This is a standalone holiday romance suspense novel, but characters from the Venture Capital series and from Tech Billionaires can be known to make appearances.

My thoughts:

Gifted is the first book in a new series involving Clear Security.  I got the impression that this is a spin-off series since several characters were mentioned that seem to have already had their stories.  Despite that, this worked well as a stand alone.    This is Kate and Jim's story.  For the most part, I thought it was cute.  I did like them together, although I thought the declaration of love came a bit too fast given the time frame of the story.  There is a little mystery that rounded out the story nicely.  This is the first book I have read by this author.  I look forward to trying her again.
