HALO'S CHRISTMAS WISH (DREAMS COME TRUE BOOK 1)

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Halo Ann Carlyle wishes for a home, family, and a boat-load of pets. What she gets is a bruised hip, a lump on the head, a broken ankle, and her new yellow Honda Civic is demolished.

Rich McFarland, a sexy veterinarian, keeps showing up in the most unexpected places, promising everything she's ever wanted.

Halo believes she only has time to pursue her career as a pet detective and must ignore her growing attraction to achieve her dreams.

Will Halo trust her heart, and find a way to get both before Christmas?


MY REVIEW

If you are looking for a fast read filled with action, suspense and romance, this is the book for you.  Sharon once again brings a real life story filled with passion and romance just in time for the Christmas season.  Halo and Rich are the perfect match and when they meet for the first time sparks fly between them.  Halo believes she only has time to pursue her career and nothing else.  So she rejects Rich's advances and turns him away.  Even though Halo turns Rich away, she can not stop thinking about him.  Rich does not give up easy and is constantly thinking about her.  He comes up with a plan to see her again.  Will a near death experience bring them back together?

Sharon is a wonderful writer who writes with such passion and her characters and story are very real and believable.  I love how she brings her characters to life and how much you feel apart of the story.  I love how she adds her love of animals into her stories. I feel it makes the stories so much more believable.  Sharon has become one of my favorite authors and I am looking forward to reading what she writes next. 5 stars



BRENDA'S CHRISTMAS DESIRE (DREAMS COME TRUE BOOK 2)

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Christmas approaches and Brenda has to decide if she’s going to let the past hold her prisoner for another year or if she can finally enjoy what Christmas used to mean to her—love. DEA agent, John Smith knows the significance of December fifteenth to Brenda, but when the head of the Nuevo Cartel escapes federal prison he's forced to let her face the day without him, but not quite alone.

Can Daisy, a golden Labrador puppy, a huge sale on decorations at the hardware store, and a gift from her aunt restore her love of Christmas?

MY REVIEW

Christmas has always been a time of pain and heartache for Brenda because she lost both of her parents.  She has not enjoyed a Christmas since her parents were alive.  John, the man who loves her deeply notices each year the sudden change and withdrawal in her.  He tries to get her to open up to him but she has been unable to.  Brenda finally tells John what happened and they decide to make their own Christmas traditions together.  John buys Brenda the perfect Christmas gift and is called away for work.  Will Brenda be able to move on from her past and find the true meaning of Christmas?

I really enjoyed this story.  Once again Sharon brings her characters to life and you feel part of the story.  You could feel the characters pain and love.  I couldn't imagine losing my parents around the holidays when I was younger.  Christmas has so many meanings for so many different people.  Its a time of love, caring, sharing and brings people closer together.  But when tragedy strikes, it is hard find the meaning again.  Sharon shows that with her amazing characters in this book.  She shows how hard it is to move on from such a tragedy but you will always find your way back as long as you have people that care about you and love you.  Daisy was such a nice added touch to the story. The puppy was so cute and adorable and very loveable.  You have to read this book and any book Sharon writes, you will not regret it. 5 stars


KITTY'S CHRISTMAS HOPE (DREAMS COME TRUE BOOK 3)

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Kitty Skinner meets the perfect guy, he's kind, considerate and sexy as hell. She hopes to spend her favorite holiday with him, Christmas Eve. The only problem is, Aaron treats her like his best friend, not the girlfriend she dreams of being. To make matters worse he’s found his perfect girl and wants Kitty to help plan their first date.

Aaron Tyler thinks Kitty is sweet, talented and someone he can settle down with, but believes he has to deceive her into believing he cares for someone else to win her heart.

Nothing goes as planned when one mishap after another prevents them from admitting their true feelings.

MY REVIEW

Another wonderful Christmas read. What do you do when you are in love with your best friend?  Kitty is in love with Aaron and hopes to be his girlfriend one day.  So she continues to be his best friend hoping he will return her feelings one day.  There was no doubt that Kitty and Aaron were in love with one another.  You could feel their chemistry and love in Sharon's writing.  Sharon's characters always feel so real and you feel like you know what they are thinking and feeling.  You feel part of their stories and that you are going through the same thing they are going through.  The story is so believable and real.  There are lots of instances of friends falling in love.  They say friends make the best lovers.  That is so true.  A friend knows you like no one else.  Sharon writes with such passion and bring so much emotion into her stories.  I absolutely love her stories and characters.  I highly recommend you read Sharon's books.  You will not regret it. She is a wonderful writer and I am always looking forward to what she is going to write next.  5 stars

Sharon Kleve was born and raised in Washington and currently lives on the Olympic Peninsula with her husband.

Sharon is a multi-published author of paranormal and contemporary romance. She loves romance. She loves reading romance, living romance, and especially loves writing about romance. She gets no greater feeling than watching her characters come alive in each other's arms. Most of all, she loves giving her characters the happily ever after they deserve--with a few bumps and bruises along the way.

One of her favorite things to do is picking up a new book and sinking into the story, immersing herself in the emotions between the characters. She hopes to inspire her readers the same way her favorite authors have inspired her.

When not writing, she can usually be found either curled up in her recliner with her cat and a good book, or in the kitchen baking sourdough bread or bagels.
