Bridget (Standish Bay Romance, #2) - I read this as a stand-alone and enjoyed it. I really liked the Petrillo brothers. The characters were well-developed, which made them believable. The only issue I had was that the case against Bridget could have been flushed out more- as in more of her feelings about being a suspect. That part felt a bit rushed. Otherwise, very well-written.
