Texas Nights Series by Kelsey Cameron


Personal Assets (Texas Nights #1)
By Kelsey Browning
4 Stars
 
I really liked this book.  Personal Assets is the first book in the Texas Nights series and a great way to start this series.  This is a first time read from this author and I look forward to reading more from Ms. Browning. The small town Texas setting was great, the plot was good with tons of humor and romance, and the characters were perfect.  There were several blushing moments that had me fanning myself. 

I loved Allie and Cameron.  They had perfect chemistry and banter.  I also loved the supporting characters especially Roxanne and Jamie.  I can’t wait to see what happens to them.  A little extra sideline that I thought was genius was Charlie and Emmalee.  I love those two. 

Overall, I really was impressed with this book.  I can’t wait to dive into the rest of this series. 

Synopsis:

Sex therapist Allie Shelby has the professional credentials, but she could use a bit more practical experience. Finding the right man to bring out her inner bad girl is tough in a population-challenged Texas town. So when sinfully sexy Cameron Wright rolls back into Shelbyville, Allie wastes no time inviting him to join her in some hands-on research.

Cameron has come home to fulfill his dream of restoring classic cars. Back in high school, he knew the town princess, Allie Shelby, was way out of his league. Today he has even less in common with Allie, so he's shocked as hell when she propositions him. Still, he's only human, so he accepts her offer—and with each encounter, she shows him another, wilder side. Before long, he's thinking about more than just sex.

But while her personal life heats up, Allie's business is about to crash and burn. And she has to convince Cameron that she's one princess who's not looking for a prince to ride to her rescue.





Running The Red Light by Kelsey Browning
Texas Nights # 2
3 Stars
Running The Red Light is the second installment in the Texas Nights series by Kelsey Browning. 

I really enjoyed the first book in this series titled Personal Assets.  I felt that this book just couldn’t compete with the series starter. 

Running The Red Light is a solid read with good characters and a filled to the brim plot, but I was expecting more.  I would not go as far as saying that this second book in the series was a flop, but falling in love with this community and its characters I was expecting at least to have some of the elated feelings the first book brought.

Ms. Browning set the bar extremely high in this series, and I wanted it all in this book.  I still think it was a hit, so if you enjoyed this book check out her first book in this series. 

 Synopsis:

After wearing a “Least Likely to Succeed” label all her life, Roxanne Eberly is hell-bent on making her Red Light Lingerie store successful. Although the residents of small-town Shelbyville, Texas, are a little…lingerie-resistant, she’ll win them over eventually. So when a former employer sues her, putting a major wrinkle in her careful plans, she reluctantly accepts help from hot-stuff Houston attorney Jamie Wright.

Jamie’s on track to become his firm’s youngest partner, but discovers an unwritten prerequisite—marriage. Turns out, the only woman he wants is Roxanne, but peddling thongs and sex toys isn’t a suitable career for the spouse of an up-and-coming attorney.

Jamie’s tangled up in Roxanne’s lawsuit, her life and her lingerie. But if they’re ever going to make it work, Roxanne’s big-city boy will have to decide what he values more: the career he always thought he wanted or the woman he never thought he’d fall for.


Problems in Paradise
Texas Nights #3

This is the third book in this series, and I have stuck with it hoping it would just get better and I am so glad I did.  This book is by far the best one in the series.
This installment is packed full of humor, romance, and sexy times.  This small town has become on of my favorites yet.
Synopsis:
Eden Durant hasn't always been Eden Durant. She's made a fresh start in Shelbyville, Texas, far from her mother's notoriety. Running the Paradise Garden Café is as much excitement as Eden wants—or it was, until she meets Beck Childress. Although he's the one man who could expose her past, she's willing to open up enough to see if he might be her future.

Chief Deputy Childress is determined to get to know the real Eden, when he isn't busy cleaning up after the sheriff and running in the election to replace him. When several men fall sick after eating in Eden's café, he investigates even as her mysterious past raises both his suspicions and his protective instincts.

As their relationship heats up, so do the pressures of Beck's campaign. When Eden's secrets are revealed, jeopardizing his dream of becoming sheriff, he'll need to choose: serve and protect the town he loves or the woman who makes it home.
