The Rogue Falls In Love
Karla has sworn off men; they’re all dogs. Playboy Kurt isn’t out to change her mind… at first.
Kurt’s used to all the perks running a resort can offer; beautiful views, beautiful grounds, beautiful women… And his four brothers don’t hesitate to remind him he’s a bit of a player—he uses his family owned Harmony Resort to meet new women. Not that he needs to; every woman in town is in love with him. Despite his many conquests, Kurt’s determined to bed the beautiful Karla, no matter what it takes.
Karla followed her High School sweetheart all the way to Washington DC. It didn’t work out because he couldn’t keep it in his pants. After falling madly in love with her boss, she thought he was the one… until she found out he was seeing another woman and asking her to marry him. What better way to start over than to move to the tiny, safe town of Vineyard Springs?
Will fate force her to forget she swore off love? And can Kurt become the man she needs and leave his womanizing ways behind?

Is third time the charm for Karla? She's sworn off men after having two cheating boyfriend's. She's starting over in the quaint, safe town of Vineyard Springs. It doesn't take long for the her to catch Kurt's eye. He's the local playboy owner of Harmony Resorts and all the girls are madly in love with him. He's interested in bedding Karla but she has no interest in his playboy ways. Is she the girl who makes him give up his playboy ways? This was a cute romance that was an easy quick read. The characters were likable and well defined. The story line was cute with some twists. I read an arc via the author and voluntarily chose to review it.

The Rogue Falls In Love. Wow! I love reading a quick steamy read. The writer did a great job of giving some pleasurable entertainment. I really enjoyed the romantic story between Kurt and Karla. It was sweet and very affectionate.
The story was very realistic. I liked that the writer focused primarily on the loving couple. I liked that the writer didn’t write Karla’s character as a drama queen. The intimate connection between Kurt and Karla was written with elaborate details, leaving me satisfied as a reader.
I liked this short story a lot. Until next time my fellow readers... read on.

This the first of the series. It's about Kurt who came back home to vineyard springs. He build a resort and his 4 brothers all participate in it, making it a family business.
Karla sworn of all men after being cheated on by her boyfriend after she moved with him to Washington DC. She then fell in love with her boss who while they where together also had another and planned on asking the other woman to marry him. She decides to move to vineyard springs. First in the resort, then finding a job and a place to live.
Kurt doesn't make a good first impression, but he has his mind set on 'having' Karla. Because of it being a short read with about 50 pages, there's not much character building and even after she sworn off men decides to jump in bed with him within 2 days.
If you like short action/romantic pact books this is a nice read or you like character building and more realistic and slower building of feelings, than this isn't the book for you.

I was sent a copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.
Karla has had two really bad experiences with men she gave her heart to and is determined there WILL NOT be a number three. She decides to move to beautiful Vineyard Springs to start a new life and books a spot in the beautiful Harmony Resort while she gets her bearings. This is a family owned resort and one of the owners is Kurt who uses the place to meet women - not that he needs to - all women love him. But....he spots Karla and decides to go for broke.
Is he going to be able to break through her barriers or will Karla decided to run somewhere else.
This is the beginning of a new series by Eliza Quinn and it promises to be as good as - if not better than her previous series.
I highly recommend any book with Eliza Quinn's name on the cover - you will be guaranteed a wonderful reading experience.

Received as an ARC and leaving my honest review *spoilers alert*. This should be the first of the series and focuses on Kurt who's the eldest of 5 brothers. Kurt is a playboy/manwhore who has slept with half of Vineyard Spring's women. Kayla has fled Washington because of heartbreak and is looking for a fresh start, swearing of men and love. Needless to say that doesn't last long at all as the 2 of them fall in lust with each other. I thought that their falling into bed together was a little too fast especially after her proclamation about being off love and men! It would have also been nice to see their relationship progress outside of the bedroom but aside from 1 outing they manage to fall into bed twice! Hopefully as the series progresses we get a peek into how things progress. Overall short story so expect things to move at a fast pace.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

This is the story of Kurt and Karla. She moved to Vineyard Springs to begin a new life after two bad love experiences. He is the rich playboy owner of the Harmony Resort and the heart of most women in town. He can’t stop over a beautiful woman. But he never expected to met a woman that knock out his heart. The problem is that Karla is no longer dating or thinking in a new relationship. The situation get more complicated when he promised Karla until she was ready but he never did that foe anyone. I loved the plot, the way that the author describes the places make you feel that you are there, looking at the River, the sunset, simply amazing. I really like that characters, and the way they developed during the plot. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed this story about a broken woman who tried her hardest to stay away from men because of her rocky past relationships. However, she could not stay away from Kurt, his good looks, and his charm. He was a player and had the reputation and the boat load of broken hearts to prove it. To Kurt, no one had ever made him feel the way he did when he saw and spent time with Karla. The characters in this story were believable and likable and the story had me hooked from the first chapter. It was steamy and left me anticipating the next story in this series.

This was a very cute romance. That shows another side to the author. I like it, I have read two other series by this author and look forward to what she will bring us in the Verner Brothers series.
The plot it cute and whimsical in some ways. Though the characters maneuvered their way through the twist rather well.
Character development was done quite nicely and paved the introduction for book 2.
I am very interested in this series. Can't wait for more to come out.

This was an okay story. I really liked Kurt, he was a player yes but lovable all the same. I didn’t really feel any connection with Karla she was just a bit bland for me. But I look forward to the next book as this book made me intrigued by John and curious as to what happened with Joan.

This should be the first book of a new series, and I expect great things from it! Karla and Kurt are the main characters of this short novel, and I truly loved the way they interact and develop their relationship. Despite their past and their different way of approaching life and love, they can’t help falling for each other.
They really delighted me.

First book in the series and I loved it! The story is very realistic, romantic and full of passion. The scenario is stunning. The writer describes it so very well. I could see everything with my own eyes. I had a very good time reading it. Karla and Kurt are meant for each other and their chemistry is magical. If you love short steamy stories, read it!!

Kurt and Karla are the perfect example of one sided lust/love at first sight. This short story gives you the emotions of a long relationship fraught with problems in such a short time.
Eliza always manages to give in depth emotions and a perfect love story in such a short span.
