Logan

by Ava Pearl

*The Granite Valley Mountain Men are back for the Holiday Season!

At the Valley View Chalet, the twinkling of Christmas lights reflects off the crystalline snow defining the winter wonderland of the Granite Valley. Fresh pine boughs and red baubles adorn the rooms, with mistletoe hung over every doorway. This year’s Christmas Gala is proving to be the best fundraiser to date.

Logan
With my military service behind me, I’ve taken a hard one-eighty shift and opened a family photography business. Engagement photos in the park, weddings in the historic chapel, and first birthday smash cakes at the local Tea Room. I want to capture all the happy memories for posterity and restore my faith in humanity.
I’m not a one-night stand kind of guy, but after a long night of flirting, I let my guard down.
Curves, exotic shimmering skin, mouth-watering lips, and a genuine laugh; she’s every photographer's dream.
Every man’s dream.
And if she thinks I’m walking away, at Christmas no-less, well, she’d better prepare to battle.
And lose.

Selvi
I’m late to the party as usual, like Cinderella, except wearing nasty scrubs instead of a fancy ballgown.
Hospital emergency rooms during the holidays are no joke, and I barely escaped. Now all I need is a hot shower and a sexy tuxedo man to dance the night away carefree.
Just one night. That’s all I want.
So why is it that the one man I like isn’t here to party?

They are looking for two different things....but can they find a middle to meet at?

Logan is the fourth book in the Granite Valley Mountain Men series. Selvi Patel is a doctor at the local hospital in Granite Valley, New Hampshire. She attends the annual Christmas Gala with her best friends at the Valley View Chalet. With a couple days off this is a night to enjoy herself, blow off some steam, get tipsy and maybe find someone to really have some hot and steamy fun with. Logan McCay was a military man who chose to life a bachelor life. But after six years and two tours overseas he realized he wanted more out of life....a wife and family. So when it was time to re-up he instead headed to the Valley View Chalet as his cousin Ridge had offered him a place to stay. Logan started a photography business with his younger sister. They are at the Christmas Gala to take pictures of the attendees, both posed and candid. When Logan first sets eyes on Selvi he is mesmerized by her beauty and she is eyeing him like a candy cane she wants to lick. They may have an immediate attraction that is so intensely smokin' hot that everyone else sees it before they do. But will her "one night of fun" and his "wife and family wanted" be able to find a meeting of more than their bodies?

This is a fast moving and sweet holiday romance, kind of like a Hallmark movie. There is no real drama, a bit of angst, a lot of sizzle and some romance, all mixed with family, friends and the holidays. My only issue is that there are some detail inconsistencies which had me flipping back a couple of times. But otherwise this book is an enjoyable read and a nice addition to the series.

Logan tries a new approach! This is about Logan and Selvi. Logan has always believed that what he wanted was to find his true love, settle down, and have a family, NO one-night stands. Everyone around him has found their better half and is as happy as he wishes to be. Well, he is a photographer and tonight he is in charge of the photos at the Christmas gala being held at the Chalet by his friends. Selvi has been waiting for this day as she has been working hard and not playing enough. She is a doctor and so when she finally gets a ride to the gala, her friends instruct her to come through the back entrance and go through the kitchen to her room as she will need to make an entrance like the rest. She does this and immediately meets Logan - no words are spoken but the looks they gave each other was enough for others to target the man she wanted to spend the night with as she is married to her job...

The story is funny and short but it gives you everything from friends being friends and nosy and a beautiful epilogue of 10 years in passing...

The fourth installment of Ava Pearl's Granite Valley Mountain men series, this standalone short romance is positively steamy and sweet. Ex-military man Logan is adjusting to civilian life, now a photographer and working the Christmas gala at the Valley View Chalet. He is ready to settle down and when his eyes fall on the beautiful and voluptuous Selvi - who arrives in through the service entrance, still in her scrubs - he knows she is meant to be his. Selvi is focused on her career as an ER doctor, looking to let loose and maybe find a hook up at the Christmas gala. The moment she sees Logan for the first time, she is intent on making him her Mr. Right Now. Can the magic of Christmas solve for differing priorities when it is obvious a couple is meant to be? This is a fast-paced, entertaining, short Christmas instalove romance that I highly recommend if you want some heat in your holidays!

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Logan is the fourth book in the ‘’granite valley off road club’’ 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 likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Logan is a man that is looking for a potential wife and future mother of his children. When he meets busy doctor Selvi, will his ideals change?
The chemistry between Logan and Selvi is clear to see and I liked them together.
I liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read. I look forward to more books from this series.

Logan is the photographer at a Christmas party. Lately his friends have found their mates and he’s starting to feel lonely. He sees Selvi for the first time and even though she’s in her hospital scrubs, he feels the chemistry between them. Selvi is looking to have a good time with her friends at the party but she notices Logan immediately and can’t deny the connection she feels. Unfortunately for Logan, Selvi only wants a one time thing but he wants more. A quick entertaining read. The characters were likeable and had lots of steam. I received an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Logan is ex-military and decided he wanted a different life and opens a family photography business. Selvi is an ER nurse and is ready for a night of partying after her shift. From the moment Logan sees Selvi at the Christmas Gala he's working at he falls for her instantly. She thinks he looks like they could have a fun night together but he wants more than one night together. This is a short, insta love story between two characters who want totally different outcomes. This is a great addition to the Granite Valley Mountain Men series. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

The author has given us a wonderful story that pulls us into the lives of Logan and Selvi and does not let go. Logan is the photographer working the Christmas Gala when his attention is caught by Selvi, one of the guests. He is looking for a stay-at-home wife and she is focused on her career. Can opposites attract and come to a compromise?

This is the fourth installment of the Granite Valley Mountain men series. Again, it's a steamy, short instalove standalone featuring ex-military Logan now photographer and an ER doctor Selvi. He is ready to settle down, she is looking for a hook up. They get together, they part, and this is where the magic of Christmas comes in. This was a good story.

Logan and Selvi . . .

Logan is out of the military and has decided to create a family photography business, capturing happiness and important memories for people, focusing on the good things life has to offer. And he’s ready now for a permanent partner to share his life with him.

Logan sees Selvi at the Gala where he is taking the photos, and she is the one he wants. The only problem is that she wants just one night of fun. Can he convince her that they can happily have forever?

Picture of Love

Sweet instalove story. Logan and Selvi meet at a Christmas party and sparks fly. Selvi is only looking for a night of "fun" but Logan wants to follow his heart towards a future with the woman that makes him feel everything he has been waiting for in a partner. Selvi is pretty ridiculous - a woman that is supposed to be so smart should realitrue love coo bb gun tt88 okie 980

The story of Logan and Selvi. As soon as he sees her he knows they should be together, but Selvi is reluctant to commit to anything long term so will she give him a chance?
Looking forward to more books in this series.

Logan and Selvi have chemistry that is off the charts. They have very different desires in mind. I like how sure Logan is and how he dreams of his future. Selvi needs convincing. The story is sweet and fun and full of flash fire spice. These 3.5 stars are easy and quick to read.
