4.0 out of 5 stars Endearing small-town romances, April 23, 2010

This review is from: Hawk's Way Grooms: Hawk's Way: The Virgin Groom\Hawk's Way: The Substitute Groom (Mass Market Paperback)

1st story: Injured pro-football player goes back to hometown to recuperate & finally rid himself of his virginity with his childhood BF who was raped at 16 & still struggling with her sexual self-confidence esp since she has large breasts. But both are not being very upfront about their issues/motives with each other.

2nd story: Fighter jet-pilot comes back to hometown to tell his BFF's longtime GF/fiance, who he's been in love with since a teen, that BFF died in action. He proposes to marry her on the day of her wedding with BFF to supposedly help her with her ramshackle, deeply-in-debt ranch but hard-working & self-sacrificing heroine struggles with guilt about being so attracted to hero esp compared to her deceased fiance at such a short-time after fiance's death & keeping her secret that may affect his desire to marry her.

My 1st Johnston read & was pleased. Both were solid romances. Good chemistry & love scenes were ok. Other characters were interesting & didn't get in the way of main romance. Am actually looking forward to reading about these other characters' own stories.

Recommended.

This review is from: Hawk's Way Grooms (Paperback)

The first story was O.K. Someone who is a sports fan/player might like it better than I did. The second story was totally unbelievable. No-one would allow a minor to raise their brothers after the parent died, and they never explained how she or her mother could afford paying medical, funeral, mortgage, food, clothing, etc. for a growing family for 10 years which irritated me no end.
