Umm, what happened. So this is my second book by Blair which is the 2nd in the series. The first book with dragons was whimsical and fun, a little silly but very good over all for the humor it was trying for. This on fell so flat for me.
First it was disjointed and the flow was totally off with the read not sure where anything was going. Yet the overall story of the kids was clear enough. Why he was taken by her, why she was light one moment and in complete freakout the next. The little parts just didn't add up to the whole picture.
Second, there was no chemistry. It starts bad by being disjointed and not understanding the attraction or how deep it is. Then it goes to sudden changes in mood, mode, and discussion.
So I liked the story she was trying to tell but it fell totally flat, the parts that were supposed to be fun or funny seemed forced and the romance was just so/so... or worse.

Sitting in a doctor's office gives you plenty of time to read while you're waiting for them to finish up with your child. This morning, it enabled me to finish up this story. I found it to be more annoying than anything else, as it seemed to follow the same pattern as the first book, just with a different hero and heroine, along with a different problem that had to be addressed. What I liked about this one was the uniqueness of the heroine, especially in the face of her agoraphobia. What I didn't like was the whole "forced" feel of the story. I've read several of the author's other works, and they're humorous without being obvious or forced about it. This series just feels off, as if they weren't really what the author wanted to write. I hate to say it, but I think it will be a while, if ever, I finish the third book in the series.

This was an okay book for what it was - a somewhat formulaic and predictable fluffy paranormal romace story.
Queisha Saint Denis is a quirky, creative agoraphobic who lives alone in a large house on an island where she is solitary, but able to manage her fear of the world. Until the twin girls she carried as a surrogate for a rich couple come back to her because of the parents unexpected death.
Queisa's not sure she's able to be the best parent to the girls, even though she loves them. Enter guardian angel Chance Godricson - hot and has been in love with Queisha from afar for years. He's determined to help her - and of course they end up in bed plenty!
The whole story was really predictable and it didn't really grab me. It was sweet and had the requisite happy ending, but it was all just a bit too pat for me

When Queisha becomes a surrogate to a jet setting couple she never suspects she will get a return on her gift. That is until the day the twin orphans show up at her front door. Chance is a her guardian angel ever since he gave his life to save hers. Chance has one problem, he has been watching and helping Queisha that he has not been doing a good job for his other charges. What happens when he shows up with the twins and Queisha thinks he been sent by the twins relatives to keep and eye on her more than the twins. What will happen to Chance with two scene-stealing moppets and a women he finds irresistible. Sometimes helping others can be hard on a angel.
