Lily And The Lawman

I been looking forward to reading this book and this series of The Alaskans. And I enjoy the story the characters are telling me too.

FIFTH INSTALLMENT FROM HADES, ALASKA

Probably a 4 plus -- characters are very good - story telling quite good but the story lacks something essential.Lily Quintano goes to Hades to vacation with her brother, James and her sister Alison, who have left the family residence of Seattle.The driving force was finding out that her fiance was having an affair. When she arrives in Hades she is carrying a lot of emotional garbage - mostly a bruised ego.She meets Max Yearling, the sheriff of Hades and of course takes umbrage. Jimmy and Alison rope in Ike LeBlanc to restore Lily's confidence in herself through the cooking pot. She is owner of Lilys' restaurant in Seattle.Then there is the little eighteen year old who is trying her darndest to corner Max. Max saves Lily from a bear which lead to other conflicts, etc.Solutions: Get Lily to move to Hades and open a restaurant but she is determined to move back to Seattle. Max does not try to stop her. OH Boy!Just something I found interesting [grin] Max Yearling is 10 months younger than his sister April, who appears to be about 25 when she marries Jimmy Quintano - the same age as Alison, who married Jean-Luc LeBlanc. Both Jimmy and Alison are younger than Lily who must be about 3 or 4 years older than Max?Now we need to see if Kevin Quintano, about 35, will move to Hades and hook up with June Yearling, about 20. Of course there is the 18 year old Vanessa who has moved to Seattle. More complications but not enough strong situations. Easy to read, fun to follow the foibles of the siblings and characters of Hades but ....... recommended but every woman and I use the term loosely has to hop in to bed instead of using her God given talent to woo her man [sorry but I find that in the end it becomes boring to the story] into commitment before surrendering her treasures. Ha!

Hades, Alaska here we come

To be honest I haven't always like the Hades, Alaska books that Ferrarella keeps putting out. This one is better than some of the others though. In general, the characters are good, the story is fun. There are a few overwrought sentences, but beyond that this is worth reading.
