Check In (Bobbins Sisters Series Book 2) by Debra Parmley

4 out of 5 Stars

Leann Bobbins has had her share of drama. A couple of years ago when she came to Barlett to visit her sister, Leann’s stalker wannabe boyfriend kidnapped her cat and followed her to town and then attempted to abduct her. Thankfully that did not happen. Leann is finally moving on from that incident when she meets Len Yardley, a local police officer.

Len feels almost instantly protective over Leann. They develop a quick friendship that is leading to more. All in part to their daily check in calls. This was something they decided to do because they didn’t always get to see each other due to scheduling. When Leann misses one of the calls, Len starts to worry. He calls her. Leann finds herself in trouble again. Will Len be able to save her?

A sweet, delightful short story! These Bobbins girls just can’t seem to stay out of trouble. The author does a great job of incorporating strong veterans into the stories. Looking forward to getting to know the 3rd Bobbins sister!

I devoured this book quickly. After a couple bad relationships, Leann Bobbin meets a new guy. He wants to show her how a woman should be treated. I found this to be a very sweet story that reminded me that we should not take less than we are worth in a relationship. I really enjoyed that their relationship started with “boundaries”. Len doesn’t want to be a stalker so decides that he will at least send a text every night to make sure she makes it home every night. Not returning that text, is what set Len into action to try to save her. I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to more from this author.

This romantic suspense really kept me on the edge of my seat through the majority of the book. Full of drama, suspense, mystery, intrigue, and more this author really knows how to hook her reader and keep them reading until the final page. While this is the second book in this series the chatacter development is fantastic for this short novel. While I found the characters to be fantastic I found the plot to be dramatic, suspenseful, and overall intriguing.The bank heist is intense and will pull you in as if your trapped in the bank with our main character Leann during a bank robbery. Even though Leann is pulling put all of.the stops to survive, will she make it? Will her new police officer boyfriend Leonard be able to save her? You’ll have to read this second installment to find out.

Check In (Bobbins Sisters Series Book 2) by Debra Parmley. This book was amazing just like the first. I really recommend reading the first book because it helps you get to know the characters and the figure out the story line better. This is the story of Leann who has started a new job at the bank. Leann has been dealing with the recent stalker she had and has started dating a new guy, Len who is a police officer. Len is the perfect boyfriend, he checks in on her, is very protective and is very loving. When Leann doesn’t respond to one of his messages he finds out that she is in the midst of a bank robbery. Leann is used to challenges but this a new one. She is hiding and sneaks a call to Len to come rescue them. Will he be able to save her this time? This is a fast paced read that I finished in one sitting. Its a great read!

This book was quite short and the romance was cute. Leann is like a puppy, very excited and agreeable. Len has some past heartache which is addressed and overcome so quickly. Despite having some shady relationships in the past, Leann instantly gravitates to Len which I found to be a bit odd. The main plot twist in the story was also resolved too easily. I wish it was longer and explored the troubled past of both characters more. It felt like mostly pleasant chatter. Enjoyable and quick, but would have liked a little more tension, passion, or drama to keep me invested.

Leann has just graduated college and is about to strike out on her own with a new job in the towns bank as its new manager, new apartment and a new boyfriend, a local cop who works for the Bartlett Police department. After a stressful couple of years and a bit of bad luck, it seems like things are starting to look up for her and when she meets her new boyfriend, she is all smiles and happiness, something she has had in short supply, apart from when around her family and he seems just what she is looking for, meanwhile, he is just as happy to be around her and they try and either talk or message at least once a day around their shifts at work, but one day there is a robbery at the bank and Leann has just one opportunity to tell her boyfriend what is happening, but will he get there in time to stop the robbers, or will he be too late? This is a romantic suspense with sweet romance and danger combined to keep you on your toes throughout while also indulging in the innocence the romance provides.

This is the second book in this series and a bit shorter than the first one. You don’t need to have read the first one to read this one, but I think it’s a good idea to read it because you will have some back story on Leann and her sister. In this story we get to see how much Leann has matured. This was a really quick read, I honestly wish this book was longer because it felt a little rushed at times and I would have liked to get lost in the story more. I was happy to see that Leann finally met a good guy. Len is a police officer who checks in with her to make sure she’s safe and then one day she isn’t. If you want to find out what happens then you need to read this story that has romance and suspense.

At only 68 pages this is a very quick read. However I felt that the author could have done so much more justice to the characters and the storyline if it was made into a full length novel.
The book is the second instalment in the series but can be read as a stand-alone. I would suggest that you would get more from this book if you read the first book in the series as you get to know the background of main character Leann in book 1 which is the story of her big sister Betsy. One thing I did really like about this book was getting to see Betsy and Wyatt again and seeing how they are doing in the future.
In this book we get the story of Leann Bobbin and her new boyfriend Len. I like both Leann and Len as characters and felt that the author could have done so much more with them in a longer story.
As with character progression, I feel that there could have been so much more added to the storyline. Each part of the story felt very short and then jumped to the next section, when the author could have expanded on each part of the story.
I did like the characters and I liked the overall storyline, I just felt that it could have been so much more.

This is a lovely short romance story. Even though it is a short story it feels complete and the author doesn’t miss anything out. The characters are well written and easy to relate to.
Len  is a police officer who was injured in the line of duty. Now he’s stuck behind a desk and hating every minute of it. Everyday is the same until he goes to a barbecue and meets Leann.

The attraction between them is instant and as their relationship grows Len checks in consistently with Leann to check she’s OK. To some people it might see obsessive but Leann loves it and it would eventually help to save her life.

Where to start….This is book two in Bobbin Sisters series and this is a very fast paced, action packed book. You first meet Leann in book one, Check Out and you start to fall in love with her character and hoping that her life will start to look up. When Len shows up you instantly know that her life is being turned upside down and all for the better. My only complaint with this book is that it ended way too fast. There is so much more story to tell of Leann and Len and I hope that this series will continue.

Amazing. Debra Parmley has not disappointed me yet. I read the first book in this series and the second one was just as good. Leann seems to draw drama to her. Her sister Betsy is happily engaged to her man, and Leann is looking to settle down too. But can she find happiness with a police officer? Read this book if you like romance, suspense, and unpredictable story plots. I will be reading this again.

If you are looking for a fast suspenseful read, look no further, Check-In by Debra Parmley is a great suspenseful read. The details are amazing for this short story. The characters are created in the story rather quickly. It seems you start reading the book and the next minute you are done with it. Leann has a new job at a bank. Just her luck, the bank is being robbed. She hides and tries to call her boyfriend, the police officer. Will he be able to save her and the others in the bank? I recommend this book as it is a quick fun read.

I read the first book in this series before picking this one up which made the book easier to read and understand the characters. I recommend reading the first book before this one because it allows you to understand the characters better and follow the storyline. This book is a relatively short read, having finished it in an hour myself. Although short the character development is stellar even though I would have liked to see a little more drama to the storyline.
This book is Leann’s story that picks up where the first book left off. She ends up starting a new job at the bank and dating Len who happens to be a police officer. He is the sort of man every girl hopes to catch which makes you fall in love with him super quickly in this book. He calls or checks in with Leann to make sure she is doing alright. The one time she doesn’t contact when she should he finds out she’s in the middle of a bank robbery and is using every skill taught to her to survive. Can Leann survive another run in with a bad guy? Can Len save Leann in time? You’ll have to read to answer those questions and more.

Wow! What words can express even more how good this book was. The book takes off very quickly, I loved how it starts, and the moments of terror and suspense were so freaking good. I felt I was right there with the characters in the book, holding my breath in fears of it being my last!

Leann is truly a remarkable character, but watching her in the heist at the bank holding down those moments for her own survival was more than well done. Literally every moment and detail she talked about was critical. I swear if it was me, I would not have handed things as well. The emotional impacts was real and true! It was so freaking good, a short read, but it gives a lot, and I mean a lot! The details were vivid with great descriptions! I also enjoyed her founding relationship with Len, was a nice addition and played perfectly into the story. Was a great read! I for sure will read more by this author no doubt!

I loved the seed of the book and the emotions that went along with it! It was very easy to get hooked and want to know more. I felt I literally started it and then I had finished it, was a very brisk and entertaining read, I do recommend this book, if you want suspense and moments on your edge, this book is for you!

This is the second installment in the Bobbins Sisters Series from Debra Parmley, Check In, and I would have to say I really was excited to get my hands on it after reading the first one. You don’t have to have read that one to enjoy this one, however we do meet our main character in the first book and have some background there so that may enrich your reading since this is a fast and brief read. I would have to say this is a struggle for me again with this book. I just wanted a bit more again. It had so much going for it and I loved some parts but every time I got going and invested it just felt like I was slighted and cut off. I would have invested the time and read more if I was given it so I hope that the shorter novels aren’t to appeal to the reader and keep them interested. I felt as if this story could have really just exploded in some places and become a huge thriller. I do look forward to seeing what book three will bring us and the hope that we will get a bit longer of a read in that one. I am looking forward to spending the dime with the Bobbins sisters.

This was a really quick and entertaining read about Len and Leann. Leann is Betsy’s sister. We met Betsy in Check Out (Book 1). Their story is pretty simple and romantic. Two people with hurts that fall in love. Len is a pretty straight forward fellow who tries to make sure she is treated right. I loved how the book was written. A happy read that brings two through challenges to realize how much they love and care about each other. Almost a “Hallmark” moment. I highly recommend you check out this one. A quick weekend read for those cold weekends when you are stuck inside.

This is book 2 of the series and it was really good. You meet Leann Bobbin in book 1 as she is Betsy’s sister. While attending Betsy and Nash’s engagement party, Leann meets Len, who work for the local police department. When Len calls Leann on their daily check in, Leann, who is working at her first full time job at a bank, lets Len know of a robbery that is taking place. As the robbery ends, I love how it brings Leann and Len closer. The story flowed so quickly in this book and I just wished it was a bit longer :).

This was a super quick read. I did not read the first in this series and did not need to to follow this story. I feel this story needed to be a bit longer. I was never able to get invested in everything that was going on, and I never connected with Leann at all. She seemed to act younger than her age. I really liked Len though and maybe had there been more to this story I would’ve loved it! I really didn’t like the ending, it felt abrupt to me. I turned the page hoping for an epilogue and was disappointed there was none.

Everything just happened too fast. The bank scene was the highlight of the book, and I loved how that was written, even if it was still a bit quick.

This is my first book by this author and there were things I really liked and will definitely read more in the future.

This book was such a quick read – I was more than halfway done before I realized it. Though I hoped for more depth with previous characters, there was enough reference to the first book to connect the stories. I would have liked more detailed scenes, especially from the bank, but it was still a good book. Len is someone I would like to see further development of in any future books, and hopefully a deeper dive into the family dynamic.

I love military romances probably because I have been connected to the military in very personal ways my whole life. It takes a deep understanding when service members come home sometimes with injuries that are invisible like PTSD. The author does a brilliant job depicting Nash’s military persona from being physically injured and the issues when it comes to dealing with the VA hospital.
Betsy is downright terrified when she meets Nash for the first time. Not only is he big and intimidating but is also missing an eye. The first time they meet he is not pleasant; he is angry and snaps at her over books. However, he changes her perspective of him when he waits to make sure she gets to her car okay as she is the last to leave for the night. He cleans off her windshield of ice, and then after noticing her flat tire offers to drive her home. From there he continues to attempt to woo her but feels shut down even though it’s unintentional because her sister comes into town. They have many battles as Nash feels like Leeann her sister is just as drama filled as his ex-fiancée was. But when trouble comes calling in Leeann’s campus stalker Nash fulfills his protector roll ensuring both sisters are taken care of. Can Nash make Betsy see him as not so scary? This is a must-read book if you like military romances. It will make you laugh, make you cry, and even make you lose some sleep for wanting to know what comes next.

Check In by Debra Parmley is the second book in the Bobbins Sisters series. This is pretty quick, fast paced story that is easy to read. I thought the characters were easy to get on with and really helped go add to the overall story. I thought the connection between the two main characters was pretty relatable, even for such a short story.
I enjoyed how the author created a full detailed story in such a short book. It didn’t feel like anything were missing and I really got into the story. This was a great book and a series I have enjoyed so far.

This book may be a short and quick read, but it immediately had me hooked. Leann seems like a real sweetheart and tough too. She has been through a lot when it comes to men but she finally meets a good one. Len is cop, I like that, and it is sweet that he falls in love with Leann so fast and has such a protective nature over her. I am happy to see that she finally feels safe. You can see the love they have for each other when Leann is in danger from armed bank robbers. The way she got out of the situation is something I think everyone should keep in mind, in the right situation the way she reacted was pretty genius. I really enjoyed this short and sweet read.

I enjoyed reading Check In, the 2nd book in the Bobbins Sisters series by Debra Parmley even though I am not usually a short story kinda girl. Ms Parmley packs so much into her stories and the characters that you wish they went on for longer. It was great returning to these wonderful characters and seeing their stories develop further. Check in focuses on Leann and the turns life has taken since graduating. She meets gorgeous police officer Len and life definitely gets better until an armed robbery takes place at her new job.

Check In was a good read. If you’re looking for an easy, quick read with a happy ending this one is for you. I felt a little rushed and there wasn’t a clear distinguished time period throughout the book and some scenes felt a little choppy and rushed but overall this was a really good book. The characters were likeable enough and the storyline was decent so this was a great book to me to read if you want to waste time but don’t want to get sucked into a longer, more drawn out novel. This is the first book I’ve read from Parmley again and I would read more in the future.

Check In by Debra Parmley begins with the reader meeting Len, an officer who was recently injured. He goes to a friend’s barbecue where he sees LeAnn, and the two fall head over heels for eachother. It is love at first sight for the two. Their relationship is easy going yet loving.
I liked watching these two characters develop. It was easy to relate with them. I think pretty much everyone can relate to some aspect of the characters or their lives. It is a quick read with a great storyline.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I truly enjoyed Check Out by Debra Parmley. It felt like I was treating myself to read it.

Betsy is a librarian in her local library. She has some trouble getting along with her family and struggles with her past. Nash is an injured veteran suffering from PTSD from his time in the military – he is new in town, jaded, and mysterious. They are interested in one another, but Betsy thinks it is best to wait to get to know each other better while she awaits a visit from her younger sister, Leeann. Once her sister shows up with news she may have a stalker, we find the catalyst that draws Nash and Betsy to one another.

I’d like to see where the relationship between Nash and Betsy goes, as the book ends pretty abruptly. That being said, this was a good read with characters that drew me in and kept me interested. It is pretty quick to get through, and the author has a 2nd book in the series that extends into a story with Leeann after this ends. I will continue to read Debra Parmley!

Check In offers suspense, romance, camaraderie, a POV of someone with some past trauma due to being in the military and the things he saw, and great pointers on what you need to pay attention to in the case of a crime being committed around you. The characters are likeable and relatable. I didn’t care for the implication that the robbers were not sober, but it wasn’t overtly stated.

Len and Leann offered a lot of input via their inner voices, which was a nice way to explain a lot of backstory and former trauma, why they react the way that they do, as well as show the ways they complement each other. This is a quick, easy read – can definitely put it away in one sitting. I enjoy Debra Parmley’s use of detail to draw you in, and am looking forward to seeing more from this author.
