I'm sad that this is the last book in this series (so far) because I have really enjoyed visiting Whispering Cove. Brazen by Cathryn Fox is an enjoyable, audacious, and sexy romp between a seemingly mild mannered school teacher and the town's bad boy firefighter.Josie Wells (okay I have to admit that I snickered when I read our heroine's name) is a kindergarten teacher looking for her Mr. Right. She was told months ago by a psychic that she'd be meeting him soon and was even given his initials. But, so far she's had no luck. She's challenged by her friends Vic and Tabby (from books 4&5) to have a little fun with Mr. Right Now while waiting for Mr. Right to come along.Adam Collins is a playboy firefighter who is convinced that the men in his family are cursed, that they are unable to commit to just one woman. Adam's been attracted to Josie for a long time but because of her job and his reputation, he's never acted on it. When Josie confronts him at the kissing booth during the town's fall festival, he realizes that he might have misjudged her.These two are a delicious couple, they seemed so mismatched but in reality they are perfectly matched. Adam immediately understands Josie's sexual wants and needs. Josie makes Adam understand he's more than his reputation. Together they are spontaneous, combustible, and fascinating.I absolutely loved Josie and Adam's story. Cathryn did a fantastic job of telling their story and showing us all sides of their personalities. I personally love that even though Josie is a teacher, she's portrayed as a woman with fantasies and needs like anyone else. Throughout these books, the "grandpa matchmakers" have been featured prominently and I thoroughly enjoyed these three characters. I really liked that Adam gave Errol a taste of his own medicine in this book. Brazen is the perfect ending to this set of novellas in the Whispering Cove series. All three authors did a terrific job and I'm seriously hoping there will be another round of books in this series.Advanced Review Copy provided for an honest review.
