Book Review: Shelter Me (A Frazier Falls - Book 2) by Kelly Collins




Shelter Me
(A Frazier Falls - Book 2)
by Kelly Collins



Amazon US / UK / AU / CA 


She’s a city slicker. He’s a man married to small-town living. They are totally wrong for each other … or are they?

Emily Flanagan loves everything about the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles, especially her career. But when her mom suddenly takes ill, Emily has to put her life on hold and rush to Frazier Falls. The small town offers nothing she desires, and everything she loathes, especially the handsome but arrogant Eli Cooper. If she didn’t want to throttle him each time she saw him, he could be a nice distraction.

When Eli Cooper first sees the beautiful stranger slip on the ice, he thinks he might have a chance to play Prince Charming to her Cinderella. But as soon as he offers assistance, he discovers she’s not the type who needs—nor wants—rescuing. Within minutes, Emily and Eli are fighting like warring nations. As far as he’s concerned, she can’t leave town soon enough.

They aren’t a perfect match, but it’s said that there’s a fine line between love and hate.
Can they have a ceasefire long enough to realize their true feelings for one another?

Kelly Collins brings her signature wit, wisdom, and warmth to yet another charming small-town series filled with hope, love, and happily ever after.




My Rating:


Favorite Quotes:




Most of the male population here are in diapers, both young and old.



“We all have secrets.”… “There’s a picture out there somewhere of me wearing a thong.” I laughed. “Women’s or men’s?” “Not sure. In all fairness, there was a lot of whiskey and a dare involved.”



Had I known taking you to a spa was all I needed to get you naked, I’d have suggested it the first time I saw you.



My Review: 


This was a quick and satisfying small-town romance between two people who had irritated and annoyed each other upon first blush. Emily was a tough cookie and more than a bit prickly so it took considerable effort to warm up to her, although I enjoyed her snarky observations and humor. She gave and received good banter with Eli, who was also blessed with the gift of snark although his heart and edges were considerably softer and he was vastly more comfortable in his own skin. I’m enjoying Ms. Collin’s quirky Frazier Falls community almost as much as her beloved Aspen Cove series, although I sense my feelings will soon equalize with more familiarity.
