My Review: This one is going to be tough for me to review. There were parts that were super awesome - seeing some of my old favorites from the Big Sky series, how Kristen Proby brought so many emotions from Brody's childhood, and the clients Brooke serves. But then.. there were the parts I didn't like so much. It just felt like too much was being shoved into too tiny of a space. The pacing felt off because so many things had to be accomplished in so short a time. The emotional connection between Brooke and Brody felt stretched and forced. I know this author is an amazing writer. I have a row of her books on my keeper shelf, even. But I think her talent lies more in creating complex plots, and deep emotions... neither of which work for such a short novella.
Cover Lovin': 1001 Dark Nights classic.
Recommendation: All 1001 Dark Nights books can be read as a stand alones.
Final Rating: THREE POINT FIVE out of FIVE stars (3.5/5)! Good, but not her best. It felt lacking compared to her usual, amazing style.

About TEMPTING BROOKE:
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby comes a new story in her Big Sky series…
Brooke’s Blooms has taken Cunningham Falls by surprise. The beautiful, innovative flower shop is trendy, with not only gorgeous flower arrangements, but also fun gifts for any occasion. This store is Brooke Henderson’s deepest joy, and it means everything to her, which shows in how completely she and her little shop have been embraced by the small community of Cunningham Falls.
So, when her landlord dies and Brody Chabot saunters through her door, announcing that the building has been sold, and will soon be demolished, Brooke knows that she’s in for the fight of her life. But she hasn’t gotten this far by sitting back and quietly doing what she’s told. Hustle is Brooke’s middle name, and she has no intention of losing this fight, no matter how tempting Brody’s smile — and body — is.
