Review: The Might Quinns: Brody by Kate Hoffmann

THE MIGHT QUINNS: BRODY sucked me in from the get go.......... I have to admit, I am totally getting sucked into the world of Harlequin more that I ever thought I would. They are all (well mostly that is) fun, sexy and fast reads I can usually finish in a couple of hours. This one was no exception. This is my first book by Kate Hoffmann that I have read, although I hear the Mighty Quinn Series is quite popular. This is the Quinn’s Down Under. I do believe a series of three for the three Quinn brothers living and working on their family station in OZ. This first release is about Brody, the youngest of the Quinn brothers and the most rebellious of sorts. Brody left with his mother off to the city and OFF the station that was being run by his father at the time. With his parents separation he was exposed to the life he had always dreamed about as a kid, to be a Footballer (Australian Rules that is). But being a Footie was what was most important to Brody above all else that was until he destroyed his knee in a motorcycle accident all but putting his career to a screeching halt. So, what does a boy down on his luck do? He heads back home to the family station which is now ran by his brother Callum with his Dad moving up to the City & back with their mother. The middle brother Tegan is a veterinarian who also lives on the station and his story starts to heat up as well through the middle of Brody's with the arrival of Hayley Fraser not to mention the Irish beauty Gemma Moynihan who Callum is already hooking up with. Drunk again and in the local lockup for tearing up the bar, Brody awakes to a beautiful woman beside him, Payton Harwell. Well, not right beside him, you have to take account the bars…because she is locked up too for leaving an IOU at the diner instead of paying her tab. She is broke, dead broke for a rich girl from America who ran off from her wedding and a boring loveless fiancé. Payton is desperate to find herself and in the process she finds Brody bailing her out of jail and offering her a job with his family. He too is trying to find out who he is, trying to drink itself into a stupor when he can and not facing reality that his Football carrier may just be over. Through their search for themselves they find a lot of passion and hot steamy sex, which I must admit I do enjoy, but as Payton grows stronger she helps Brody discover that just because he isn’t on the field playing with his team it doesn’t mean that his life is over in the sport. I did adore how Brody falls for Payton and realizes that he doesn’t want her to leave, ever. Even when her slimy ex-fiancé comes back into the picture to re-claim her. I would recommend if you are in the mood for a sweet sexy story that leaves you with a smile and a HEA that we all want so desperately.
