Brooke Valentine has not lead a charmed life. She's always had to
struggle. Her grandfather basically raised her but they never had much
money for nice things. Brooke's grandfather left her his house and his
land but he also left her his medical bills and back taxes. She's going
to school but she's also working two miserable jobs to try to pay
everything off. She's even sold all the land except a half acre and the
house that sits on it. Her new neighbor is Travis Cooper. He ex-military
and runs a security firm out of his house. The one he built next to
Brookes. While leaving for school on her motorcycle, Brooke has an
accident. Travis is right there to help. She looses both jobs as a
result of the accident and now finds herself being chauffeured around by
her handsome neighbor. She's not sure why he's being so nice to her.
Anyone can see he is way out of her league. Travis is attracted to his
cute, spunky and stubborn neighbor but in a sisterly way. So why does
her lips continue to draw his so strongly. She's not his 'type' of girl.
When Brooke starts a new job at Babycakes Bakery, Jazz Valenzuela, her
boss and friend, thinks she has a way of making Travis jealous so he'll
finally admit his feelings for Brooke are more than friendship. But what
will happen when Travis finds out it was all a set-up?
Not His
Type definitely has a place on my favorites shelf! I read the story in
practically one sitting. The author draws you in from the very beginning
and you just can't stop reading until the end. Her characters are full
of charm and whit, along with a bit of stubbornness! Brooke was someone
you felt endeared to right from the start. She's so honest and
down-to-earth and truly thought little of herself. She's had to handle a
lot of things on her own but never a force like Travis Cooper. I loved
Travis Cooper! You couldn't help but love him. He's strong, charming,
generous and very handsome! A take-charge kinda guy who is comfortable
in his own skin, except where Brooke is concerned. I loved his cute
little pet names for her. You'll enjoy every moment of the story and
won't be able to turn pages fast enough! Oh, an ladies...as if the story
wasn't delicious enough, you are treated to an absolutely delectable
ending! I loved it! This would make a great Hallmark movie! Lisa Crane
is a new author to me, but I will definitely be seeking out her other
stories!
I'm a mom to three grown boys, two daughters-in-love, a wife of 34 years to a great guy. I love coffee and reading and reviewing books. I am what you might call a "bookaholic". (Even more than that...a Kindleholic!) I also love to shop the thrift stores for interesting treasures! I appreciate the authors I know and love but I also like finding new authors and making new author friends.
