I love this author's work. In fact, I've yet to read a story of her's that isn't an automatic 5 stars. If you're like me, a fan of the romance genre, I can safely say that there aren't many writers that top Kimberley Reeves.In this story she showcases her smooth storytelling abilities alongside her apparently in-built talent for creating characters that her readers can connect with.In Aiden's Bayou you have a stellar cast of characters that are perfect company to share a coffee and an afternoon on the sofa with... Aiden, an innocent'ish' young woman who has decided she's definitely off men, having suffered at the hands of a love rat (Lance) and Giovanni, a man willing to take advantage of that innocence solely to further his career. There's also interfering/critical/controlling parents, overprotective brothers and the 'perfect' gentleman who, although not for this heroine, is a sweetheart nonetheless and has the BEST name I've ever come across in this genre 'James Champagne' (and yeah, he is as rich and traditional as his name implies).Then of course there's the hero of this story... Quinten Hawke. Angry, suspicious, definitely rough around the edges and, oh yeah... seriously HOT! ;) He's a man with demons, and the Mother from Hell, but he's someone you just KNOW is perfect for Aiden.This story has love, betrayal, adventure, misunderstandings on an epic scale, starcrossed lovers, passion and a double happy ending. Really, what more could you ask for?
