INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone My name is Victoria Zumbrum, 40 years old, married 14 years with 1 son. This is my very first blog. So bear with me. I have always wanted to have my own blog. I have always loved to read. I enjoy getting lost in a good book.
I love becoming part of the story and characters. I am hoping to bring my love of books to my readers.

I love reading different genres such as paranormal, young adult, romance, romantic suspense, mystery, Christian fiction, some horror, etc. The list goes on. I started reviewing books a couple of years ago and have done reviews for different blogs and even some authors. I really have enjoyed reviewing books and I will continue to do so. If anyone is interested in me reviewing a book for them, please contact me. I still have a lot to learn regarding my own blog so bear with me. I welcome and appreciate all followers.

Release Tour and Review for Corralling Kenzie by Joanne Jaytanie














CORRALLING KENZIE


The Winters Sisters series Book 4






by







Joanne Jaytanie






Official genre of book: Romantic Suspense with paranormal elements




























Will Kenzie ever find peace and security inside the corrals of her ranch again?







Kenzie Vaughn is lucky to have a big-city, big-paycheck position. But her great job serves as nothing more than the path to her dream: a horse boarding and training ranch outside the big city. Kenzie is a horsewoman who loves Dobermans and peaceful country living. Now she’s found the perfect ranch, right next door to a lovely campus that houses the Winters Corporation. Her luck is holding, for the Corporation is run by the Winters’ sisters, wonderful women who could easily grow to become great friends.







One night her peace was shattered by a gunshot that wounded her horse, Boone. Good thing for Kenzie, Victory Winters is a veterinarian. Still the gunshot was no accident, and Kenzie’s past and the Winters’ present are dangerously intertwined. Kenzie is sucked into a vortex of rogue scientists who only want her for her DNA. Fortunately, the Winters Corporation can help. Even better, a Special Ops team member, Logan Mendoza, is assigned to watch her ranch. He isn’t interested in Kenzie’s DNA; he wants her for much more. Logan takes Kenzie’s personal security personally.







Will corralling Kenzie become Logan’s full-time mission?






























“Kenzie, you’re ice cold, your hair and clothes are soaked. Let me help you into a nice hot shower. When you are finished, I’ll have a hot cup of tea waiting,” Victory said.







Kenzie merely nodded her head and stood up. Victory guided her up to her bedroom and shut the door behind them. Logan pressed a speed dial number on his cell.







“What the hell, man? This better be life or death. I just hit the bunk two hours ago,” Jack’s groggy voice answered.







“It will be. Yours if you don’t drag yourself from your warm, cozy bed and get your ass to your computer as soon as humanly possible.”







“Shit. Now what?” Jack sounded awake now.







“Victory and I have spent the last two-and-a-half hours at her neighbor’s. Someone shot her horse, and while we were dealing with the injured animal, the shooter tossed her house. Too soon to tell if they took anything yet; however, she did notice one of the family photo albums is missing.”







“Are you saying that diseased Kaleidoscope Group and their madman of a chairman are spreading their terror out onto the surrounding neighbors?”







“I don’t know anything for sure. All I can say is, this doesn’t feel like the run-of-the-mill smash and grab. I need you to start a search on ‘Kenzie Vaughn.’ Victory and I will be staying here for a while longer. We are going to suggest she contact the police to report the attack.”







“What the hell for, man? All they’ll do is muck up the works.”







“At least while they’re doing that, Kenzie will have someone out here watching out for her.”







“Ah, I see your point. You can’t get her to come to the campus?”







“Victory only met her tonight. What would we say to her? When are Wyatt and Tristan scheduled to return?”







“Not until the day after tomorrow.”







“Okay. Send them a text. Tell them we have a potential 9-1-1. Let’s get a meeting scheduled for tomorrow.” Logan looked at the time on his phone, nearly four in the morning. “It would be great if I could get a little nap before then.”







“You and me both,” Jack grumbled as he disconnected the call.











MY REVIEW:

CORRALLING KENZIE IS BOOK 4 OF THE WINTERS SISTERS SERIES.  I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SERIES AND JOANNE NEVER DISAPPOINTS.  WE ARE INTRODUCED TO KENZIE AND LOGAN.  KENZIE OWNS THE RANCH NEXT TO THE WINTERS CORPORATION.  ONE NIGHT, HER HORSE, BOONE IS SHOT AND SHE CALLS FOR HELP FROM VICTORY WINTERS WHO WAS A VETERINARY AND IS ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH ANIMALS.  KENZIE MEETS LOGAN WHO IS PROTECTING VICTORY.   LOGAN DISCOVERS THE SHOOTING WAS NO ACCIDENT AND THE WINTERS SISTERS SOON DISCOVER THAT ROGUE SCIENTISTS ARE AFTER KENZIE'S DNA.  KENZIE'S PAST IS LINKED TO THE WINTERS SISTERS FUTURE.

LOGAN IS ASSIGNED TO PROTECT KENZIE.  LOGAN AND KENZIE HAVE INSTANT CHEMISTRY AND SPEND ALOT OF TIME TOGETHER GETTING TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER.  THE MORE TIME THEY SPEND TOGETHER THE DEEPER THEY FALL IN LOVE.  WILL LOGAN BE ABLE TO PROTECT KENZIE?  WHEN KENZIE IS TAKEN, WILL LOGAN AND THE TEAM BE ABLE TO GET HER BACK?

I LOVED CORRALLING KENZIE AND WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED ONE BIT.  I LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS AND I LOVE HOW LOGAN AND KENZIE CONNECT.  THE CHEMISTRY IS UNDENIABLE AND THEY BECOME CLOSER AND CLOSER AS THE BOOK PROGRESSES.  I LOVE HOW THE SISTERS AND THE TEAM WELCOME KENZIE INTO THEIR CLOSE CIRCLE.  IT WAS A WONDERFUL READ FULL OF ALOT OF ACTION AND ROMANCE.

IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE WINTERS SERIES, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DO SO.  YOU WILL INSTANTLY BE DRAWN INTO THE STORYLINE AND WILL LOVE ALL THE CHARACTERS ESPECIALLY THE SISTERS.  WHEN YOU THINK YOU HAVE IT ALL FIGURED OUT, JOANNE INTRODUCES YOU TO ANOTHER BOOK WITH NEW INFORMATION AND DETAILS TO THE BIG PUZZLE.  EACH BOOK GOES INTO MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE CHARACTERS.  THERE ARE CONSTANT OBSTACLES THE SISTERS AND THE TEAM HAVE TO FACE. THERE IS NON STOP ACTION, SUSPENSE, AND ROMANCE.  ALL THE CHARACTERS AND THE SISTERS ARE CONNECTED WITH SPECIAL GIFTS AND POWERS.   

I LOVE JOANNE JAYTANIE'S WRITING AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT BOOK IN THE SERIES TO SEE WHAT SHE WILL COME UP WITH NEXT.  I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ ANY OF HER BOOKS ESPECIALLY THE WINTERS SERIES.  YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.  5 STARS
