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