About this listen
When you're looking for a little escape to the rugged mountain landscape that's as beautiful as it is wild, unwind at Castle Mountain Lodge.
Morgan's looking to hide out from her life, but what she's not counting on is Bo, the handsome and rugged mountain guide at The Lodge who has his own heartache to bear and his troubled little girl who sneaks her way into Morgan's heart.
Opening her heart again means opening herself up to the hurt that threatened to destroy her once. But if she can let down her guard long enough, Morgan might just see that everything she's been looking for is right in front of her.
If it's not too late.

Story
Arranged marriages are so three centuries ago. But that doesn't stop Afton Lennox from being bound by one. All her life she's been pledged to wed Connor MacKean. It's the only way to save both their families' estates, and they're friends after all so it won't be that bad. Right? Hamish Colquhoun has spent his entire adult life trying to find a way to liberate his best friend from a marriage he doesn't want. If it also spares the woman he's secretly loved for years, it's of no mind to him. He's already got a wife and family of his own. Freeing them both is just the right thing to do.

Story
Lexi Titan has mastered the art of pretending everything's fine. After all, how else could she ignore the fact that her husband is never home, her son barely knows him and the last time she had sex, well, who can remember. With her life crumbling, the last thing she wants to do is go on a trip, especially back to Vegas; a city full of glitz, excess, and Leo, the man she's spent the last six years trying to forget. But when her best friend announces she's getting married, Lexi doesn't have a choice. It's ridiculous to avoid an entire city because of one guy. Even if he is the father of your child.

Story
What's a little marriage between friends? Mia has been Braxton's best friend for years. Even when they no longer lived in the same foster family, even after he'd aged out of the system, he'd continued to look out for the one person who got under his skin and made him care. For the last six years, Mia's been keeping her head down, putting one foot in front of the other, unable to trust anyone with her secrets—including the foster brother who's been the one bright spot in her life, as well as her secret crush.

Hidden Gifts - Get Ready
As a fan of this author, this book met my expectations. I enjoyed the first Castle Mountain Lodge book, and I am sure you will enjoy this one. A strong leading lady, a sexy hero, romance, sizzling chemistry, who could ask for more!! Having read the first book I'm gratified that this book is all I could have imagined.
As expected the narrator Jennifer Drake Ford made the book come alive. She was excellent wit the various characters and really great with Morgan. Kudos to you Jennifer.
I loved the way Elena segued into developing Morgan's persona as she interacted with Kids. The sexy and tender Bo was also beautifully developed even though he seemed to be somewhat ambivalent initially.
I couldn't put it down and neither will you. I totally recommend it. Bonus... read and enjoy as a stand alone novel (if you need to)!

Great Sweet Romance - Enjoy Series or Stand Alone
These books standalone, but there is a **chance my review may contain a spoiler** so consider that when reading.
*I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my thoughts, feelings & the following review. I hope this helps.
Morgan is looking for an escape after some devastating news. She was hired at Castle Mountain Lodge to be the decorator for events of all kinds, but mostly weddings.
When she gets there she finds that she has been reassigned to lead the child activities section. The manager came to this decision because of Morgan's extensive resume – a degree in child development and career working with children. Morgan wants nothing to do with it, she enjoys the focus on details that an event planner/decorator can work through in a methodical, mindless way.
Bo, Castle Mountain Lodge's mountain guide, has just discovered that he is a father to a young girl he never knew about, until her mother's untimely death. Known as the resident heartthrob and player at the lodge has no idea if he even wants to take on the responsibility of becoming a father.
Caught in the middle is this beautiful little girl who steals both of their hearts.
Enjoy your stay at the Castle Mountain Lodge.
Notes: There is constant, subliminal sexual tension, however other than that this is a well-written, innocent book. (I didn't mind.)
Stars: Overall 4, performance 4 & story 3.5–4 stars
I enjoy leaving reviews, as I know that I read them the reviews of others before I purchase a book. If you found my review helpful in your decision about this book, would you please select yes directly below this paragraph? Thank you so much.
Please consider "following me" here on Audible.com. I purchased a lot of books by authors that I am faithful to. I also have the opportunity to review books in all genres, many that I would not pick up on my own. I have been pleasantly surprised by new authors and narrators. Thanks!

Sweet romance!!
This is another super sweet romance in the series. Things are mostly light and fluffy between the two characters. They each have something deep to deal with and work out. I do love they way they find that even though they are both flawed, they are perfect for each other.
Morgan has a lot on her plate when she comes to the lodge looking to escape. Life has a way of messing up those plans and she finds herself taking care of the kids, something she was running away from. You really feel her heartache and it is easy to love her.
Bo is they typical ladies-man player who also falls into life's trap. An unexpected daughter can really make a fella grow up. He has stumbling blocks, but have faith in him to see the error of his ways! I do like his playful banter.
The story has ups and downs, but mostly stays sweet and endearing. Having the mixed narrative with both leads POV really helps understand them. It is key to getting inside Bo's head.
The steam factor is low, flirtation and some kisses, but that is as hot as things get. They have chemistry but never end up in the bedroom. Very clean read.
I listened to the audiobook narrated by Jennifer Drake Ford, who is a delight. She has a smooth sweet tone that really compliments the story. Nice pacing keeps the story moving along. She has a lovely way of adding emotion into the read. I definitely teared up at one point.
Overall, I adored this read and appreciated the sweetness of the romance. I love my smexy books, but sometimes flirtation is enough! I am eager to see others in the series find love. Carmen, Jeff and Astrid are just begging for HEA!!
Disclosure - I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts, opinions and ratings are my own.
