If you haven't downloaded your free copies of the Class of '85 books yet, here's what I thought about them. Yes, I've read every book in the series. Who doesn't like a reunion story?
Something More by Keena Kincaid
Ms. Kincaid has given us Something More to think about with a cast of complex characters struggling to work through their problems in search of a happy ending. Nick and Nora's story of overcoming adversity is a wonderful addition to the Class of '85 series.
Promises, Promises by Silver James
Kelly Kincaid has been kicked to the curb by her rat of an ex-husband. Michael Doogan wants nothing more than to help the woman he's always had a thing for get back on her feet. Will Kelly's pride stand in their way?
This is a wonderful feel-good story guaranteed to put a smile on your face!
Embraceable You by Kat Henry Doran
Kat Henry Doran has written a fast paced tale of two people coming together in a single evening, and finding their lives changed forever. Rarely have two characters deserved their happily ever after more than Dru and Rory. Embraceable You is a keeper!
To Be, Or Not by Margo Hoornstra
Will Amanda and Barry find love the second time around? I was cheering them on from the first chapter to the last in this feel good novel about second chances. If you're a fan of this series, you'll recognize a few characters who have turned up before. Kudos, Ms. Hoornstra, for a job well done!
Lonely Road To You by Jannine Gallant
What if, at a time and place when you least expect it, a second chance at love and happiness comes your way? Newly divorced and soon to be empty nester, Kate Abbott ponders those possibilities as her twenty-fifth high school reunion draws near. Tyler North was the former crush she never imagined would give the shy student she was the time of day. Especially since he went on to become a rich and famous sought after singer. Turns out the woman she's become has a lot to offer the man who supposedly has it all. A conclusion he reaches as they share friendship and eventually love on a cross country trip to the reunion in Summerville, New York. Author Jannine Gallant has done an excellent job in bringing her readers along for an enjoyable ride.

From Margo Hoornstra's book, TO BE, OR NOT, an
overview of the characters' home town.
Summerville, New York hadn’t changed much in
the twenty-odd years Barry Carlson was away. Located on the southern shore of
Lake Ontario between Buffalo and Rochester, the town boasted a state of the art
hospital, two family-owned industries and a medium-sized university. In
addition to the various activities associated with a large body of water,
several widely acclaimed arts and crafts festivals attracted thousands of
tourists from early Spring through late Fall—all accommodated by several chain
restaurants and hotels, smaller bed and breakfasts, gift shops and boutiques.
Here are some snippets to whet your appetite,

outstanding novellas! Just click on the titles. And remember, while these

Margo
Hoornstra ~ TO
BE OR NOT
As scandals of the past and present close in on Barry and Amanda, does their
second shot at happiness stand a chance?
Snippet:
Head twisted over one shoulder; she slowly swung the rest of her body around.
All the while staring into crystal blue eyes.
Mouth open, apparently as stunned and
speechless as she was, Barry’s expression softened immediately. And made her
believe he was actually pleased to see her again.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Jannine
Gallant ~ LONELY
ROAD TO YOU
When polar opposites, Kate and Tyler collide, a cross-country journey leads to
adventure…and romance.
Snippet:
Kate stared at him. Dark hair plastered to his scalp and the side of his face.
His nose was straight, his jaw strong, and his lips an unsmiling tight line.
Dark blue eyes stared back at her from a deeply tanned face. Her heart nearly
stopped.
“Tyler North,” she whispered.
He sighed. “Not much point in denying it. Look, can we get out of here before I
start signing autographs?”

Kat Henry
Doran ~ EMBRACEABLE
YOU
Dru is forced to endure a return to 'The Village of the Damned'. Except with
Rory at her side, damned doesn't feel so bad.
Snippet:
Leaning forward, he brought them nose to nose. “You've got something else
stashed in that tote. Give it up.”
Clutching the canvas bag to her chest, she
sneered, “If you think I’ll parade around naked in front of you, one of us is a
couple fries short of a happy meal.”
He made a gimme motion with those thick, blunt
fingers. “I'll close my eyes if I encounter any lacy unmentionables.” The
instant the screw-you look morphed into a smirk she knew he’d found the back-up
cell phone. “It's not wise to mess with Homeland Security, sweetie. Those guys
eat small animals for breakfast.”

Keena
Kincaid ~ SOMETHING
MORE
Nora is a complication that Nick doesn't need--but it's one that he wants.
Snippet:
Nora was either spinning or falling. Perhaps both. His mouth brushed hers again.
The heat and taste of peat from the Scotch lingered on her lips as Nick placed
a series of soft kisses along her jaw, her chin. He nipped her lower lip and
pressed her against the rail, a gentle movement that knocked the air from her
chest with the promise of what was to come.
“Are you certain?”
Pulling back, she studied him, trying to
decipher the flicker of doubt on his face. “Who would’ve thought the wild boy
of Summerville High would grow up to be so staid?”

Silver
James - PROMISES
PROMISES
Betrayed by her ex-husband, Kelly stubbornly insists on going it alone. Can
Michael win her heart before she gives up on love?
Snippet:
“Ready for another piece?” Michael used another paper towel to gather up a
second slice, only this time he held it out for her to take a bite. His eyes
dared Kelly to play along even as his mouth teased her with full lips and a
little smirk.
She raised her chin in challenge. “You lookin’
for a piece of me, hot stuff?”
“Oh, I want more than a piece, sweetheart. I
want all of you.”
