Starting as the new veterinarian in an animal hospital, Carter gets to know the withdrawn, moody Isaac and his guide dog Brady. Carter and Isaac gravitate to each other fairly quickly, but Isaac has trouble to rely on his dog or show him any affection.It's not one of Walker's strongest books, I thought. Carter is a bit too perfect but I liked him and I even liked Isaac's pride and occasional grumpiness but I thought the book could use a bit more passion and intensity. The relationship felt rather muted and a bit one-sided. Carter ...

Cameron and Lucas work at a big advertisement agency. They don't get along all that great until their boss (and Cameron's dad) sets them onto a pitch for a potential client. Just one weekend to pull something together for a condom and lube producer. Cameron starts to thaw and sparks start flying, but there's still work to be done. This was awesome, I loved it. To think this was just fanfiction? I've read serious novels worse than this. A lot worse.Granted, most of it is just gratuitous fun, but that's what I want when I read ...

Smart and nerdy lepidopterist Lawson finds himself in a small town in Tasmania looking for a new, undocumented species of butterfly for an old professor. He meets the local wildlife officer Jack, who helps Lawson out of a bind and the two hit it off.The main characters are really well written. Especially Lawson is really cute. He dresses a bit old-fashioned with bow ties and suspenders and talks very correctly, even a bit posh, but he's also a bit shy and blushed a lot. He can also be rather direct and a bit brusque, though, and ...

But then he get's hired by Andrews sister to get his ex-fiance back, who just up and left for no reason a month ago. But it's just not the same as always, because Spencer and Andrew click just right and they spent a lot more time together than the whole "Getting his ex back" business would warrant.Well, this is certainly all kinds of gushy, mushy warm feels. I adore Andrew but he's a bit too perfect really (but I love that the ...

This book was the reason for me making another month's worth of suscription. N. R. Walker, whom I already adore for writing, landed another good one. Here goes something brave, self-conscious and encouraging to everybody out there who isn't perfect- and I happen to believe that includes most of us. This is a love story with just the right amounts of humour and seriousness. It also shows what those ideals society forms are worth. Alltogether, that makes it highly enjoyable and in the end, all smiles.Thanks N. R. Walker.
