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.

Book 2 of the Bobbins Sisters series, and I enjoyed it. It had a great flow to it, and Leann was a sweet girl. First book gave her kind of a wild feel, and this book we really get to see her in another light. The book reflects Leann starting a new job at a bank, and coincidently dating a gorgeous police officer. She tends to be more in tune to her surroundings, and her new bf is attentive and checks in consistently. When a robbery takes place at her new job things really become intense and we get to see all Leann has learned and get a glimpse of her man in blue in action. This book was light and fun, but still had the drama and suspense.

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 :).

Very pleasantly surprised!! This story of Nash, whom is a Marine Veteran and Betsy, a local librarian. Nash is a protector and very caring and is hoping that Betsy can see past his eye patch. He is there to help Betsy especially when a situation arises with Betsy’s sister, Leann and a stalker she was dealing with at her college. Betsy only wants to help and protect her sister with Nash’s help. Will Nash be able to protect Betsy and Leann?
I found this story flowed so easily and it was very enjoyable. If you like a great story of intrigue, some mystery with spark between Nash and Betsy.. this is for you! Looking forward to reading book 2! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

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.

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.

Check In is the second book in The Bobbins Sisters series by Debra Parmley. This is a romantic suspense story with drama, mystery, and intrigue. I hate to say this, as I know how much time, energy, heart, and soul authors put into their work- but I really found it difficult to connect with the story and the characters. There was something missing for me. I felt it needed to be a little more dramatic, with more tension, intensity, and chemistry for this story/series to really grab my attention. I found my interest and attention wandering and had to really force myself to stay focused. I prefer the story to grab me and pull me in so deep that I lose all sense of time and place. This story wasn’t that for me. But please don’t let my opinion put you off reading the book/series because plenty of readers would probably really enjoy this book. It’s just that I like my romantic suspense/mysteries to be a little meatier. I will come back and re-read this book again in a few weeks just to see if I still feel the same way, or if I was having a bad reading day when I picked this up.

Book two in the ‘Bobbins Sisters Series’ tells younger sister Leann’s story. Having met Leann Bobbin in book one, which concentrated on older sister Betsy, I was looking forward to her having her own romance. Leann is getting over her recent trauma of having a stalker and has started a new job at the bank. Having recently split up with her boyfriend she’s not looking for love, but when she meets Bartlett Police Officer Leonard Yardley, she’s instantly attracted to him. When a bank robbery takes place, Leann hides and then calls Len for help and this brings the couple closer together. I enjoyed this fairly short romance with added suspense and read it in one sitting. I liked ‘catching up’ with characters from the previous book Betsy and Nash, and it was nice to learn more about Leann. The characters are likeable and relatable and the chemistry between Leann and Len came across in the narrative. This was an enjoyable and engaging quick read.

I enjoyed this contemporary romance and the storyline had me happily turning the pages. Injured Marine, Nash is suffering with PTSD and is rebuilding his life having returned home, when he meets shy librarian Betsy Bobbin. Betsy is initially intimidated by the man with the eye patch and an attitude but she’s also attracted to him. Nash has sworn off women and love after his ex-fiancé was disgusted by his scars but he is drawn to Betsy. Betsy learns more about Nash when he comes to her rescue when a flat tyre leaves her stranded, and she can’t help but feel the chemistry between them. But when he then rescues her younger sister Leann from a bar, Betsy gets scared by how angry Nash gets and the fight he has with the drunk. She wonders if it’s safe to start a relationship with a war veteran with PTSD. Nash is just as wary at putting his heart on the line again but Betsy brings out his protective instincts. The couple get closer when Betsy turns to Nash to help when her sister has a stalker, but then Leann comes between the pair. This is a heartwarming romance with a hint of suspense and great characters who are realistic and relatable. The chemistry between Nash and Betsy really comes across in the narrative and I liked the sisters relationship as well. I thought the issues surrounding PTSD were dealt with honestly and sensitively and this added to the storyline.

To be honest, I wasn’t over the moon for this short novel. Perhaps if I had of read the first installment, Check Out, I would have had more information on the sisters, and wouldn’t have felt thrown into the middle of a story. It really was very cute, and I felt all the emotions I would want to feel in a romantic, dramatic plot line. The way that Len insisted on looking out for Leann and protecting her as much as he was able to be successful in proving to the reader, he was exactly the type of man she needed in her life, and vice versa. It was certainly a whirlwind romance that could have developed in a more natural way if the story was just a little longer, but it was a nice little pick me up for a one sitting read! I will be going back to read Ms. Parmley’s ‘Check Out,’ as I thoroughly enjoyed her writing style. I am glad I picked this up, thank you, Debra!

’d like to start off by saying I work at a financial institution and when I discovered this book I was super interested. I wondered how the robbery would be explained and if it felt real or like a fake robbery you see on tv. The robbery was tastefully explained and not usually how they go but it was heavily implied that the robbers were not sober which would lead to them not thinking about their actions. I really enjoyed how each character was introduced and described. Hearing from both Len and Leanns Inner voice mail was a great way to explain both of their past trauma. Not going heavy into detail but giving little nuggets or Information so that their actions and thoughts came together. I read this entire book on my hour lunch at work and it made me feel like I needed to pick up the rest of their series immediately.. I mean who needs to clock and back into work when they have a lovely story to read?

This is the second book in this series which is just as great as the first if not better. This is a shorter romance suspense story. A short story that packs a lot of action, suspense and romance in a short amount of time. This is a story about Leann who gets a new job at a bank. What will happen when the bank is robbed? Can her boyfriend be their saving grace? This is a great story that I really enjoyed. The characters pull you in from the beginning. They are relatable and keep the story engaging. The author’s use of details made the story feel realistic as if you were right there with the characters. This is an entertaining story that I read in one sitting. I highly recommend this book.
