Men and romance are not on Grace Michaels’ list of priorities. Really, they aren’t. She spends her time working and on her research. At least, that was true before the sexy new Sheriff showed up next door. And on her doorstep – over and over again. The word ‘no’ just doesn’t seem to be in her vocabulary when Ren Morello is around. Ren isn’t cut out for a relationship. All he wants is good old-fashioned sex without commitment. Ren keeps telling himself that, but finds it harder to believe the more he is around Grace. When a break-in at Grace’s home turns into a string of attacks on her life, it Ren’s duty as Sheriff to protect her, and there is no place he’d rather be. From the very first book I ever read by Melissa Schroeder, I was an instant fan, and she has not let me down yet! Grace Under Pressure is another fantastic book from this author, and is guaranteed to garner new fans that may pick this one as their first Melissa Schroeder title. Grace is a heroine that almost any woman can readily identify with. Her insecurities, her pain, her fears are those common to most of us, making it an easy thing to picture oneself in her shoes. Even with all of that, compounded with the danger she is currently in, she never quite loses her sense of humor, endearing her to both the reader and to Ren himself. Every woman can use a Ren Morello in her life. Strong, sexy, and noble, he is everything you can dream up in a hero – if he can just get past that little quirk that has him believing he isn’t cut out for a relationship… Of course, it is just that little quirk that makes watching him fall, however reluctantly, for Grace all the more delicious! While the romance is definitely in the forefront of this story, there is also a very prevalent mystery in the plot. My favorite romance novels are those that have a story that can stand alone even if you removed the romance portion of it, and this one could definitely fill that requirement! Of course, who would WANT to remove the romance, especially when it is as hot as it is in Grace Under Pressure?!
