ARC REVIEW The Right Kind of Trouble by Shiloh Walker

The McKay's book three by Shiloh Walker, The Right Kind of Trouble is the conclusion to the McKay's troubles. I hope I see more of the town McKay's Treasure in the future. I'm a fan of Shiloh Walker, I really enjoy her writing and I had been waiting on Moira and Gideon's story since the first book. First off I would not read this as a stand alone, it is easier to understand and follow if you have read The Trouble with Temptation and Headed for Trouble. It is a great big ball of mystery and devious means the whole shebang that started in the first book wraps up and I just have to say, I CALLED IT!!! Right off the back from the first book I said he did it, I love it when I'm right. But the reason behind it, which I was nowhere near close to guessing right was good, great motive.

Moira and Gideon have a history, it has said as much in the previous book but in this one it delves a little bit more in the the seriousness of their history and the fact that Moira was punishing herself for what she thinks she did wrong. Up until this book you always see Moira as the calm collected type, queen bee, in charge, ice queen but you see the vulnerable side of her in this one. With everything going on dealing with the trouble with the family and the fact that both Hannah and Neve are planning a double wedding and then someone attacked her; Moira is having a hard time keeping her composure add that to fact that Gideon has started dating one of the other deputies and she is close to breaking down. Gideon never stopped loving Moira it has never wavered, he has never given up but he's close to his breaking point now too. After so many years of being close but never being able to have and he can't move on with her so close it's not fair for the woman he started seeing because he never stops think about Moira. Moira's attack rattles some sense back into both of them they are finally able to talk about the past and straighten things out and move on hopefully with each other.

The motive for Moira's attack is someone is looking for the lost McKay treasure, only there isn't one. After her attack the IRS gets a tip that the family is hiding money from the government, bring trouble to the company, then it's discovered someone in the company has been embezzling and that's one more thing for Moira to worry about. Then Brannon's book store is set ablaze, then Moira's project that she put her heart and soul into the McKay Museum is torched as well. It almost seems like a never ending saga of "what the hell is going to happen next?" It is all revealed, but it's not over until the climactic ending.

Overall, this was a good series I loved the characters and the whole mystery arc in all three books. This book I love Gideon, Moira was a little hard to like at some points just because of her way of doing things and being stubborn. I swear I was almost screaming at her, "Just listen to Gideon Dammit!!" but other than that I loved it.           

ARC REVIEW The Trouble with Temptation by Shiloh Walker

More fun with trouble! We are back in McKay's Treasure, Mississippi and this time we are following the started "relationship" between Brannon and Hannah. I tell you it was really weird because Brannon is only one letter off from my brother and I had to try really hard to keep my brain from auto-correcting it. Other than that I loved it! Shiloh Walker took the cliched trope of pregnant with amnesia and gave it the Shiloh flare. If you are new to the series I don't think it is absolutely necessary to read the previous book, Hannah doesn't remember what happened and it all becomes revealed. So this can be read before the first one but their is a undercurrent story that is present throughout the first and second books to be concluded in the last. I love Shiloh Walker she has a very engaging writing style and I always get so absorbed in her book.

Hannah Parker woke up in the hospital with no memories except for the name of the man with the brilliant green eyes and the vivid red hair. Brannon McKay realized the huge mistake he made when he turned Hannah away and now that she is pregnant and doesn't remember Brannon knows he has a second chance to make it up to her. Hannah is still in danger the police still don't know what happened why she was in someone else's car or if she was the intended target or if she just witnessed something she wasn't supposed to something that ended in the death of another woman. This person is running scared because he doesn't know what Hannah remembers but he is willing to get rid of her before she does. Hannah knows Brannon isn't telling the full truth, she can just feel it, but she doesn't push him away because she also knows she loves him and has loved him for most of her life so she will enjoy it while she can. Until she finally remembers.

Overall, this is a fresh new take on a classic trope and I thoroughly enjoyed going back to McKay's Treasure for a bit more mischief.          

ARC REVIEW Headed for Trouble by Shiloh Walker

Shiloh Walker's newest series The McKays starts off with a bang. This was a great read. Shiloh Walker does it again she creates a small town of gossipy bizzy bodies, a heroine with a dark past, and a strong sexy Scottish hero. Neve is a poor little rich girl, but it's a deserved title. She was eight when her parents died and her two older siblings and the housekeeper were left to raise her. Neve was desperate for attention and she learned early on that if she behaved badly she got the attention of her family. Moira was eighteen and was left to go to college and run the corporation her parents ran, and Brannon only thirteen. Neve then started the domino effect of her bad behaviour that lead to the nickname Trouble. It wasn't until a bad experience in highschool that she realized she was doing it all wrong. She tried to change her ways but everybody would not let her past mistakes go. This is Neve's story but it also teases a little bit about Moira and Brannon stories too.

Neve left home after high school because she wanted to prove to her family that she could make it on her own if she tried. She did, she became a model but her job was getting in the way of her school and then she was swept of her feet by the a rich british man. For ten years she has been gone and for the last six she has been on the run, hiding from William Clyde. With no place left to go, to hide, she returns home hoping that her family can offer her the safety she needs. Being back home Neve still feels like an outsider, the letters she wrote when she was gone all came back return to sender. She doesn't know how her family will react to seeing her again. Especially after the last time she saw Brannon she threw a classic Neve temper tantrum and left, it was also the last time William beat her.

Ian is the sexy Scot that manages the pub in town. Neve's first night back Ian was enchanted with her beauty and it would have lead to a very, very satisfying night if they hadn't been interrupted. And when Ian finds out she is his best friends little sister he gets that sinking, aww shit, feeling in his gut. After talking to to Brannon, Ian decides he's going to go after Neve either way. Neve isn't looking for a relationship with her past experience only being a sociopath who almost killed her and has been stalking her for six years Neve is understandable hesitant. But Ian does his best to woo her and become the kind of friend she needs right now; if that leads to more all the better. Ian is successful, just by being there for her and understanding her and most important to her he believes her story about William.

Moira and Brannon welcome back their little sister with open arms and finally begin to mend the broken ties between them. It's a lot easier now that they know the full truth about what happened in the time she was gone. Let us not forget to mention Gideon, bad boy turned town Sheriff, ex-boyfriend of Moira who's still in love with her. Gideon is as much a brother to Neve as Brannon, he has always been their for her and never believed the gossip about her. This book teases us with the history of Moira and Gideon and some unanswered question about some of the stuff that has happened. It also introduces us to Hannah :) another one of Neve's only true friends in school; and it leaves us off with the start of Brannon and Hannah's story.

Overall, this is a great read. I love the characters and the story line it's funny and suspenseful all the while Ian is the sweetest hottest book boyfriend since Mrs. Walker's Decker. I love me a ginger.
