A young woman inherits an Alaskan B&B that's a portal to an alternate universe in this sexy paranormal romance by the New York Times bestselling author.
Three weeks ago I, Rachel Bond, inherited a bed-and-breakfast. In Alaska. Just this morning I was in my warm bed in LA but now here I am, up northâ??and this is, like, nosebleed northâ??sorting it all out. So:
PROS:
1. Bears and wolves and moose can't be any worse than LA guys.
2. You've heard of "starving artists?" I'm about to faint. So it's probably time for a change.
3. My good friend Kellanâ??you'll like him, unlike me, he's cool under pressureâ??suddenly has this animal sexiness I've never even seen before.
CONS:
1. ALASKA.
2. The house chef can't cook, and the guide can't read a map.
3. Kellan's sudden hotness is getting very hard to ignore.
4. I just got hit by lightning.
And I'm not sure if this is a pro or a con just yet, but since that lightning bolt, I can see through everything. As in completely transparent. That was before things started to get really weird . . .

Prelim Review: This was okay. I didn't enjoy it as much as Get a Clue or Shalvis' Lucky Harbor books, but this was decent. I suppose like Kellan I had trouble thinking that Rachel would have become lovesick over him if not for the special abilities they both receive. Other than a bit of minor moments beforehand she didn't seem all that concerned with the idea.

2.5 stars. This started out great, with funny banter and cute characters. But by mid-point, it was a confusing, drawn out story. It also needed a better editor as several times the first person got screwed up - very confusing. Not her best work, that's for sure. ( )

I loved the humor in this book. I was laughing out loud when Rachel and Kellan were flying into the Bed and Breakfast. But I also found the book very confusing. It was cleared up in the last chapter but I just felt as lost as the characters until then ( )

My attempt to dip my toe in the paranormal/sci-fi contemporary novel pond. A fun, fast moving story surrounding a not your normal run of the mill bed & breakfast in Alaska - with super powers, heightened sexual awareness, and pirates you never know what is going to happen next. ( )
