    About this ebook

    Book four of the Holloway series

    Travis Yardley thought he had everything he needed, but one look at Andrea Patterson shows him he was wrong. Andie is a gorgeous, curvy blonde who moves to town to manage a nearby campground. Seizing the chance to get close to her, Travis volunteers himself as tour guide and "bodyguard.'

    After a bad breakup, Andie is looking to start over and determined to put her heart on hiatus. She's working on her self-esteem, and she is not ready for the likes of Travis. He comes on strong, with all the energy of a guy almost ten years her junior, which is exactly what he is.

    Even as Travis's troubled past catches up with him, he pulls out all the stops to convince Andie he deserves a chance. And with the spring thaw hitting the Mountain View Resort, Andie discovers her own temperature rising whenever Travis looks her way

      I generally hate age gaps, but there was some decent angst about being overweight, so I'll allow it.
    • 3/5
      This is a cute small town romance. The hero is so adorable in his dedication to the heroine. I quite liked it but there were some things that bothered me like how quickly they fell in love. I had the feeling the author skipped the whole getting-to-know-each-other phase. The heroine is very insecure about her body which I can totally sympathize with but it got on my nerves. It was just too much. There were also too many busybodies in this town. I wouldn't want to live there. Everyone is in everyone's business.
    • 4/5
      Short, satisfying addition to the Holloway series--I really liked both Travis and Andie. Actually, I've loved Travis throughout the series, and was very glad to see him get his own HEA...and the fact that it's an older woman with body image issues? Loved! It was also nice to get a peak into what's going on with the other couples--especially Spence and Lila, who are planning their wedding. Just What He Wanted was exactly what I wanted--an enjoyable way to spend a summer afternoon.(I received a copy through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.)
