Book Review: Crazy About Cameron



Title: Crazy About Cameron (The Winslow Brothers #3)
Author: Katy Regnery
Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance
Release Date: September 22, 2015


Crazy about Cameron is the third of four books about the Philadelphia-based, wildly-handsome Winslow brothers who are all on the look-out for love.

(Say what? Not so much...Brooks and Pres are OFF. THE. MARKET, and Chris is so distracted with his campaign, he can't see what - or who - is right under his nose.)

With her stiff posture, black-rimmed glasses and chestnut waves in a tight bun, Cameron Winslow’s downstairs neighbor, Margaret Story, has long been the unaware star of his filthiest dirty-librarian fantasies. But with a floundering business eating up all his time, Cam doesn’t have the open road he’d need to date a lady like Margaret.

Margaret, who grew up down the lane from Cameron, has always thought of him as a cross between a bully and a tease, as likely to pull her braids as pull her leg. But he’s grown up to be a smokin’ hot businessman, and Margaret can't help daydreaming about what it would feel like to be under, um, with someone like him.

When hot-headed Cameron and buttoned-up Margaret start using the same shady contractor for apartment renovations, Margaret may find herself in some unexpected trouble, which forces long-concealed feelings to come out of hiding...and might just make way for two unlikely fantasies to finally come true.

Return to the world created in the English Brothers books with this fresh foursome of scorching hot Winslow Brothers!






Globug's Review

One thing I have loved about Regnery's book-boyfriends is that they all seem to give their whole heart when they find love and a lot of that I think is because they have been raised by loving parents who shared a forever love. Unfortunately that hasn't been the case for the leading ladies and in particular for Margaret and her four sisters.

I loved that Cameron and Margaret have secretly crushed on each since they were kids. Cameron was the typical boy that picked on Margaret to get her attention when most of all he just wanted to be the one to make her smile. They now find themselves living in the same apartment building and their hidden desires are even stronger.

Margaret has spent her entire life trying to please her Father. He has always made it clear that he wanted a son and had no use for daughters. Now with her growing feelings for Cameron she finds the strength to face down her Father when he tries to force her into a business deal that should be about the heart not business.

I loved the way Cameron and Margaret's dreams gradually intertwined. In him she found the strength she needed to walk away from her overbearing Father. In her he found peace and a new dream that he could build with the girl he has loved since he was thirteen. I also loved getting a glimpse of where life has taken the couples from the previous books in the series. Regnery has become one of those authors that I can depend on for a great read.


Excerpt


When he spoke, his voice was a desperate whisper, taut and tender at once. “I’m not just falling for you, or crazy about you. This didn’t just sneak up on me, and while it’s better than I ever expected, it’s not as new to me as it is to you. I’m in love with you, Meggie. I fucking love you. And I don’t know how to go slow. I don’t know how to slow down. I don’t know how to do anything but love you as hard as I can for as long as I can. I tried my fucking best to be careful with you, to be cautious and patient and gentle and not to scare you away. But the truth? The truth is—”
“I love you too.”
He was silent, his chest pushing relentlessly into hers with every breath he drew. Finally he leaned back and looked into her eyes as though stricken, like he couldn’t believe what she’d just said.
“What are you . . . I mean, are you—”
“I’m in love with you too. And yes,” she said, leaning forward so that her lips brushed against his when she finished, “I’m sure.”


About The Author:
KATY REGNERY, winner of the 2013 NECRWA First Kiss and 2013 Maine RWA Everything But the Kitchen Sink contests, has always loved telling a good story and credits her mother with making funny, heartwarming tales come alive throughout her childhood. A lifelong devotee of all romance writing from Edwardian to present-day, it was just a matter of time before Katy tried her hand at writing a love story of her own. As it turned out, one love story turned into a series of five Heart of Montana romances, following the love lives of the Yellowstone-based Lindstrom siblings. In addition to small-town contemporary romance, Katy is presently writing a paranormal romance that takes place in northern New England and the forests north of Quebec. Speaking of forests, Katy lives in the relative-wilds of northern Fairfield County, Connecticut where her writing room looks out at the woods and her husband, two young children and two dogs create just enough cheerful chaos to remind her that the very best love stories of all are the messy and unexpected ones.
