Take Me Home: a fun weekend read

Take Me Home by JH Croix is the first book in the Last Frontier Lodge series. After a walking in on a robbery at her apartment in Seattle, Marley Adams returns home to Diamond Creek, Alaska. Hoping to move past the experience, she settles into a routine when handsome Gage Hamilton inherits the local ski lodge and begins fixing it up. The connection between Marley and Gage is instantaneous and soon the two are inseparable. Everyone around them is ecstatic that they have found each other. Nothing would spoil it. However, soon the events back in Seattle seems to follow her home, Gage takes charge to help her figure out who is after her and what they are after. Can they figure out who is threatening her? Is it connected to her apartment robbery?

Take Me Home is a cute, sweet romance. A nice book for a weekend read. I enjoyed Marley and Gage as their relationship developed. The sex scenes bordered on a tad bit too detailed but not too graphic. My only complaint is the author’s constant descriptions and sentence structure. In the opening chapter, Marley’s auburn hair was mentioned at least a dozen time. Ok, we get it, her hair is auburn. Ms. Croix’s sentence structures seemed a bit amateurish as she mentions details more than once on a single sentence. It would be easy to figure out a dozen other ways to say the same information without the repetition. However, I did enjoy the story. I enjoyed all the supporting characters and would enjoy reading their stories as well. For a fun story, I recommend Take Me Home.
