Kelly Gendron’s Troublemaker series is quickly becoming the series that I sit and anticipate new releases for.  I love the men in her world.  The women in her books are never the wishy washy back down to an alpha male type.  They stand on their own two feet and make the men fight for them.I loved Favorite Places just as much as I loved Broken Fences.Let me start out by saying these are definitely stand alones BUT it is fun to know who the characters with smaller parts are when their names come up.After Chase and Jessina’s first chance encounter on the trolley, I knew the heat was high, but I did not know how they were going to run into each other again.Imagine my surprise when I swiped the page and boom – they are married, yet they weren’t actually the ones who got married.  It kind of took both of them by surprise too.That was definitely an unusual fun twist to the story that I have never seen in another book that I have read.  I have read lots of oops – I got drunk last night, now we are married books but none where neither spouse was actually there when it happened.These two have chemistry and heat.  You can feel it coming off the pages.  There are moments that make you laugh and there are moments that have you hopeful.  There were times where I was saying oh come on Chase!  The end had me trying to hold tears back while I was at the dance studio waiting for my daughter to get done with dance.  I was so invested in these characters that I just had tears flood my eyes with the conclusion.I cannot wait until the next book in this series.  I hear that it is called Lucky Numbers and will be published in April 2014.Thank you so much for the ARC!  I am so happy that I could be a part of this tour.
