Sloane writes romance novels for a living. Her last novel was a success but the manuscript for her new one isn't cutting it. Her editor wants her to go to Greece to write her next hot romance. Sloane doesn't really have the funds to go so she has to come up with a job quickly, to get her to Greece and a multi book deal or else she is finished. What can she do? Can she find a job temporarily to fatten up her bank account?
Gavin is his sister's legal guardian after their mother died of breast cancer at 53. Bree is a handful and Gavin is trying his best. Bree is thirteen and in middle school, but she has been cutting classes and Gavin needs to make her stop. Unfortunately, Gavin also has a full time job as a restaurant manager and the babysitter he hired to keep an eye on Bree has just let him know she has to leave. Her sister broke her hip and she has to go to her. What's next? How is he going to continue to support his sister and himself and keep an eye on Bree? How can he possibly manage on his own? His boss Carly, suggests Sloane, but Gavin isn't having any of it. He doesn't think Sloane is capable of keeping an eye on his sister. Well, what woman doesn't like a challenge? STIRRING UP TROUBLE is just what you get when you put Sloane and Gavin together.
STIRRING UP TROUBLE is a charming and touching small town contemporary romance. Gavin and Bree are still mourning the death of their mother who passed away a year ago. Because of all the turmoil they have been through since their mom got sick, they both have trust issues and won't even open up to each other to get through their grieving process. It takes Sloane to show them they really need each other, but will they realize they also need Sloane?
I love the chemistry between Sloane and Gavin but honestly, for me, Gavin and Bree really steal the story. How can you not love a man who gives up his dream job and traveling to take care of his beloved mother and then his little sister. Gavin's commitment to his sister is amazing and I love how he puts her best interests first, even when she is acting like a brat and many times, mean to him. If you are like me, and tend to cry when reading, keep the tissues handy. STIRRING UP TROUBLE will surely pull at your heart strings!
STIRRING UP TROUBLE is the third novel I have read by Kimberly Kincaid. Her stories to me are like the most expensive and delicious chocolates In the world! I devour her novels and can think of doing nothing else until I finish them. Kimberly Kincaid pulls you right in and gets you all involved in everyone's business. Sloane and Gavin feel like old friends and then throw Bree in the mix and soon you find yourself giggling out loud when they are all together.
Book Summary
Sloane Russo's turned a decade of crazy jobs and whimsical travel into a career writing steamy novels set in exotic places. Trouble is, Sloane's flat broke now--and she can't channel sun-drenched beaches in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The only fast cash in town comes with some seriously distracting temptation: Gavin Carmichael, hot, handsome and oh-so-hard-headed.
Gavin isn't the impulsive Don Juan of Sloane's novels. He's raising his thirteen-year-old half-sister, and he's pretty sure he's supposed to act like he's never heard of fun. Sloane is way too sexy and irresponsible to be his idea of a good tutor for Bree, but the unpredictable anti-nanny may be irresistible as well. . .
