Seeking Mr. Dependable: The Jane Austen Pact by: Cami Checketts

ABOUT THE BOOK:
A broken-hearted Romeo. A wrongly-accused woman. Can he keep her safe if she puts her life in his hands? 
Brooke Isaacson's ex-fiancé pulls a gun on her and she has no choice but to run. When she runs straight to Wyoming and into the arms of Ryker Redland, she's not sure if she's found her Mr. Dependable or found the biggest heartbreak of her life.
A deserted cabin and a territorial grizzly tracking them will either bring them together or be their death sentence.

MY THOUGHTS:
This one is a crazy rollercoaster ride of emotions and I loved every minute of it! I mean the first page starts with a gun in Brooke’s face. How could you not be hooked after that? This Author always has a way of drawing you into the story and helps you feel a connection with the characters. I loved seeing Ryker get his story because I read Harley and Crew’s first. (I am actually glad I did as well.) I’m really loving these Jane Austen pact books! Can’t wait to read more!

Seeking Mr. Debonair (The Jane Austen Pact) by: Cami Checketts

ABOUT THE BOOK:
A dedicated romantic, a spurned cowboy, and the pact that keeps them apart.
Harley Redland vowed at age twelve to marry a man as debonair as Mr. Darcy. Too bad she's in love with her older brother's best friend, Crew Harrison.
Harley's dreams are about to come true when she's accepted into Cambridge for her master's program. When she gets the call to come home to Wyoming because her father is dying, her world completely falls apart.
Crew Harrison has known all his life that Harley Redland is the one for him. If only he can convince her he is as charming, educated, and romantic as any Jane Austen hero. When she gets off the plane, she's hanging on the arm of her dream Englishman and he just knows she'll never see him as anything but a hick cowboy.
Can these two overcome pride and prejudices to find the love that's always been in front of them?

MY THOUGHTS:
I loved Crew and Harley’s story. Harley has her mind set on England and an Englishman. Crew just throws a wrench into all that. One of life’s hardest learned lessons I think is that the plan we might think is the best for our lives isn’t always the path we will really take. As always this Author hits one out of the park and is simply amazing. Can’t wait to read more from her.

Seeking Mr. Perfect (The Jane Austen Pact) by: Jennifer Youngblood

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Broken trust, broken hearts, and a twist of fate that could change everything.

Sierra McCain has her life figured out with a fabulous job in New York City and a perfect boyfriend who is the modern-day equivalent of Jane Austen's Mr. Darcy. The type of guy Sierra always wanted to find. 

Then, a frantic call from an old friend sends her rushing back to South Carolina where she comes face to face with the very guy she's spent the past seven years trying to forget--Dalton Chandler whose slow, Southern smile unleashes an army of butterflies in her stomach and sends her heart into flips. Under no circumstance can she fall for him again, and she certainly can't tell him her long-kept secret.

Caught between two worlds and two very different men, Sierra must decide which love she'll choose--Mr. Perfect or Mr. Right.

MY THOUGHTS:
This is the first I read in this series. It has a “Sweet Home Alabama” vibe to it. That move is one of my favorites so I really enjoyed this book a lot. Sierra and Dalton were so cute together and had such a long history. You couldn’t help wish for a happily ever after for them. Can’t wait to read more in this series!
