The Sheriff's Secret: This was a short and pretty enjoyable romance. I liked both main characters. It's your classic trope of neither one wants a relationship and they fall in love accidentally. The dog was cute too. I just wish that it was a little longer, I didn't feel like I got to know the characters well enough to be overly invested in them.


Rancher's Second Chance: This one was just kind of meh for me. I felt like the chemistry was forced. I had a hard time buying into Cole not knowing who Melanie's father was. It is established that she has been friends with his sister for years, like all through high school and spent weekends at the ranch. And she never talked about her parents? The sister never talked about Melanie's family to him? Just seemed kind of unbelievable to me.
Let's Split Up: Apparently I read this one very early in the year and never reviewed it. I guess that is how much I really didn't vibe with it. I started to listen to it again, and realized why it was forgettable. The kids were annoying. Naming one of them "Buffy" was annoying. The msytery was OK and I will admit to not really knowing the killer before the reveal. I also thought the romances were kind of annoying as well.
Be Right Back: Because I'm a glutton for punishment, I read the sequel to Let's Split up. It did not improve on the first one. The minute a certain character came on screen, I pegged them as the killer right away. So, I spent the rest of the book waiting for the characters to catch up. There were way too many times I had to suspend my disbelief in this one. At least the romances weren't annoying..
