Review - Enjoy the View by Sarah Morgenthaler

 Gah! Normally closed-door contemporary romances are NOT my thing, but Sarah Morgenthaler just hits the sweet spot every time! Enjoy the View is the third book in her Moose Springs, Alaska series, and just like the previous two, I loved this one. Morgenthaler does such an astonishing job of writing characters that you can't help but fall in love with. 

River Lane is a Hollywood actress who is pushing thirty and trying to break in to directing, and so the opportunity to make a documentary about small-town Moose Springs, Alaska is too good to pass up. What she didn't plan on was everyone in the town doing their best to thwart all of her attempts. When Easton Lockett, a local mountain-climbing guide offers to take her and her crew up the daunting Mount Veil, she knows it could be her best chance to get the footage she needs. She also can't help but hope to explore more of the chemistry between her and Easton, either.

River is a great heroine. She is driven and focused, and so no-nonsense. Easton is someone we met in previous books, so it was nice to get to know him better as well. I loved every bit of their relationship. There was no beating around the bush, they were both completely honest about their feelings (which is sometimes very refreshing). The external conflict of climbing the mountain was so high-tension and so much fun to read, and the HEA, which seemed pretty impossible, was definitely worth it!

I love all of these books, and I can't wait to read the next one!

Review - Mistletoe and Mr. Right by Sarah Morganthaler

Mistletoe and Mr. Right by Sarah Morgenthaler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mistletoe and Mr. Right is the second b0ok in Sarah Morgenthaler's Moose Springs, Alaska series. Lana Montgomery is trying to save Moose Springs, a tiny tourist town in Alaska from economic ruin. The town, however, doesn't want to be saved. Deeply suspicious of all things tourist, the town's populace constantly tries to undermine all of Lana's efforts to bring more revenue to Moose Springs. When she learns of the "Santa Moose" - an elusive moose that comes every year and destroys the town's Christmas decorations, Lana decides to try to catch it. However, instead she catches Rick Harding - handsome owner of the local pool hall and the only person in town who doesn't seem to hate her. They work together to catch the moose, but catch feelings instead.

I loved this book! Morganthaler has created such a picturesque setting for these heartwarming stories, you want to travel to Alaska just to find it. Lana and Rick are both scarred by their pasts, and have to work together and on their own to find their way through to each other. Morganthaler's writing is quick and witty, and super creative (there's a very unique bed and breakfast that I won't spoil) but she also illustrates the internal character of both Rick and Lana so well.

I can't wait to read the next book in this series!
