Hold Me ( Fools Gold #16) by Susan Mallery


Hold Me (Fool's Gold, #16)Contemporary Romance

From Goodreads:

New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery's classic blend of lighthearted humor and intense emotional conflict works its magic on two newcomers to the California town of Fool's Gold, which Library Journal calls "a setting so real and appealing readers will want to start scoping out real estate."
Destiny Mills believes passion has its place—like in the lyrics of the country songs that made her parents famous. After a childhood full of drama and heartache, she wants a life that's calm. Safe. Everything that Kipling Gilmore isn't. Her temporary assignment with the Fool's Gold search and rescue team puts her in delicious proximity to the former world-class skier every day. Part of her aches to let go for once…the rest is terrified what'll happen if she does.

Though an accident ended his career, Kipling still lives for thrills—and a hot fling with a gorgeous redhead like Destiny would be a welcome diversion. Yet beneath his new coworker's cool facade is a woman who needs more than he's ever given. With her, he's ready to take the risk. But love, like skiing, is all about trust—and before you soar, you have to be willing to fall.




Hold Me features two more easy to like characters who have to work hard to find their HEA’s.  One is new to Fools Gold and one has been a side character in previous books.  Destiny Mills has things in her past that make her think that love is only an excuse for bad behavior.  Kipling Gilmore does not believe in love at all.


It is fun to watch them interact and finally get together.  Some of the previous characters appear in Hold Me.  As the series gets longer and longer fewer and fewer previous characters show up.  There are several side problems that are a part of the story and add interest to the plot.


Once Again Susan Mallery had written a nice interesting romance set in a place we all would love to live.


HQN published Hold Me by Susan Mallery in 2015.


I received an ARC of Hold Me from Netgalley in return for an honest review.
