Oh my gawd....this book. So so good!

This book was a nice surprise. Had no idea it was coming. CM Steele keeps pumping these amazing stories out. I love her heroes!

So this is book 2 in the Gimme series. It follows Aiden (h's brother in book 1) and Kate. The blurb pretty much sums it up but it doesn't mention how take charge Aiden is or how gone for Kate he is.
-insta-love
-virgin h and I think H is virgin also. It's not clearly said but something his brother-in-law says eludes to that.
-possessive take charge alpha
-no abuse
-dual POV
Grab this beauty for a wonderful read. You don't need to read book 1 but I suggest you do, just because it's so good.

This is as expected a short sexy read perfect to celebrate St Patrick’s Day.

Aiden will do anything to help his sister and brother in law but on this day the have him everything he has ever wanted when they needed him to pick up their daughter from story time at the library. He meets Kate and everything is right in his world. They click from the moment they meet but someone is already trying to take her from him and that he cannot allow.

Kate thought she was doing her roommate a favour by filling in at story time with her being sick but she was the one who had luck on her side when Aiden arrived to pick up his niece. Everything fits so perfectly and when she gets home to find everything gone including her roommate he becomes her white knight. But with her parents demanding she return home will she leave Aiden or risk it all for love?

As always Ms Steele delivers on insta everything and then some with a lot of possessive alpha male mixed together. Great read with a couple definitely getting lucky.

Omg i loved this story!! It was cute fast pace and a great goodie!!

I loved Aiden he was a good alpha male he was protective, stubborn, funny and such a great guy he did favors for his sister always picking up his niece from things and this time luck was on his side he meets Kate at storytime. As for kate she was cute she didn't annoy me and she stuck to her guns against her asshole parents, even when her life went downhill she had a friend/protector in Aiden.. taking care of her and her needs plus ;) the hawt times they have..

What else i wanted hands down maybe more in the epilogue lol and her seeing her parents suffer and that crappy fake ass roommate lol

Low angst,no ow/om drama, no cheating, slight drama, sexy times, slight secondary charas, both virgins

Reccomend- Yes
Cover-⭐⭐⭐⭐

Good

Who can actually say that getting robbed and evicted on the same day was the luckiest day of their lives? Kate met her soulmate in Aiden never had to look back. I liked that Kate was a hard worker and trying to be independent. Aiden was a successful man and a workaholic but fell in love the instant he met Kate. I would have liked it to be a little longer, the stuff her parents were involved in was pretty heavy and it was just glossed over quickly.
Safety and Spoilers
Completely safe read! No op drama, ok a tiny problem with a TA that goes nowhere. Pretty sure both are virgins. H’s brother in law mentioned he just lost his v-card. No abuse!

WTAF??? Why does this have five-star ratings? Is there seriously a market for badly written and terribly edited drivel? Or does the author simply have a lot of friends on GR?

Aiden is in the right place at the right time. Picking up his niece at storytime, he meets the most beautiful girl in the world. Kate meets the most handsome man while filling in for her roommate's storytime. Things quickly go downhill for Kate but Aiden is ready and eager to help and protect her. Luck is a quick and dirty tale of insta-love, intense and entertaining. I love these short and sweet stories from C.M. Steele, they always put a smile on my face. I cannot wait to see where the Gimme series takes us.

Talk about an obsessive and possessive hero. *fans self* lol It’s a good thing though. Loved this one! And loved the hero/heroine together. The heroine’s family was a piece of work though. Glad they followed that through.

Luck of the Irish

This was just the right story for St. Patrick’s Day. I loved the insta-love between Aiden and Kate. The bit of drama and suspense made for a fast paced read.

Luck is book two in the gimme novella series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters loveable and the storyline enjoyable. Aiden wasn’t looking for love. Whilst picking his niece up from story time at the library, he meets Kate. From the moment Aiden sees Kate, he knows that she is the one for him. Kate feels a connection to Aiden as soon as she meets him. Plans change when Kate nips home and gets a shock. She’s in for a betrayal she wasn’t expecting. Lucky for her, Aiden is by her side and doesn’t plan on leaving it.
The chemistry between Aidan and Kate was clear to see and I liked them as a couple. I liked that both hero and heroine were virgins.
I loved that Kate never gave in to her parent’s demands. I also liked that their plan didn’t work and that they got what they deserved.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and an enjoyable read. I cannot wait for more from this series.

It was okay, insta-love and all. I think the novella's timeline spans less than a week.

Aiden (25) picked up his niece from a library, where Kate (20) is a substitute storyteller. They saw each other, and he fell in love at first sight. He asked her immediately to have dinner with him and his niece. They went to her apartment first, only to find out that her roommate stole her things and that they were evicted. Then he didn't give her a choice but to move in with him. All of these things happened within less than 2 hours they've known each other. 😂

Anyway, this is a novella, so absurdity will definitely be part of it. But I dig it, although everything happened so fast, I had good time reading this.

Alright

Spoilers*** It was just like the last one. It was a pretty good short story, I didn't like the big bad guy tho. I dont mind that it was her parents who orchestrated the robbery of her stuff and money, but in the end u find out they are human traffickers.. uhh what? Why? I feel like the motivation of them wanting her to go home and marry who they want her too was enough. The human trafficking and her dad wanting to sale her off was too much. It just felt too unrealistic in such a short book with no other mentioning it. Meh. The steam was detailed and interesting enough 3/5.

Loved it!

This is the second book in the Gimmie Series. Can be read as a standalone.

Absolutely loved this book! It was cute, sweet, with a side of sexy. Insta-love at its finest! I adored Aiden and Kate! They were just in luck to find each other on such a day. This quick St. Paddy's day Novella had me smiling!

Aiden was so protective, but very slick at getting what he wanted. There was no telling him know once he put the charm on. Also love a nerdy Hero! Kate was also an amazing character who I was so happy to see get her HEA! I reccommend this book!

One of my favorites

Reading in a library to help her sick roommate Kate isn't prepared for what Lady luck is depositing into her lap. A sexy smart Adonis who is there to pick up his niece. And the minute Aiden sees her, he knows she is his. He fets her to agree to a date right there. But when she goes to check on her roommate everything is gone. Aiden grabs her and takes her to his home after all this only helps him keep her. But when he looks onto what happened its someone they never would have suspected.

Short and sweet.....

Well.......
I enjoyed it for a quick, sweet and standalone book.
They characters where engaging and I found that I thought they where a but more realistic in some sense.
It's all very whirl wind and I found the challenge a bit more out there but more likely to happen
I have bought the book because I enjoy it and the sex scene is descriptive.

I would recommend to read it just once you never know you might buy it too.

Fun and sexy St. Patty’s Day Read ☘️

Got to love the luck of the Irish!!!

Aiden: doing a favor for his sister was the best thing to ever happen to him.

Kate: I’m not sure where he came from but he’s not the only one that has captured a bit of that Irish luck.

Read and see how the magically fun green holiday turns out to be life changing for these two. ☘️

All the luck!

Loved Aiden and Kate’s story. Aiden was so sweet with his niece, and then when he sees Kate his world finally clicks into place. All of his possessive instincts kick in and he knows that he’s got to keep her close. Kate is going through a rough patch and having such a caring man in her life has her heart melting and her body coming to life. These two were perfect together. Can’t wait for CM’s next release.

Aiden had the luck of the Irish on his side when he meet Kate picking up his niece. He knew he had to have her as his. Her family tired to get her to come back home and marry Thomas but Aiden wasnt gonna let that happen. Good thing he investigated cause her parents and Thimas got arrested for human trafficking.
