My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love Jamie Schlosser books and this one might be there on top as my favorite of hers. She has a way of hooking you from the very first page.

I loved Theo and Hadley. We meet Theo who has the worst name in show business and is currently trying to get back in. He grew up in a reality tv show and is still very much in the public eye. He has this idea and needs Hadley to help him out. Hadley is America’s sweetheart after being the runner up on a talent competition and wants to stay in show business. They both need each other but for different reasons.

The connection between the two characters is instantaneous but it works for them. I felt like they were both a bit lost in life (for different reasons). Not only was the book light and funny but it had a load of heart too. Miss Schlosser has a way of bringing these characters alive and launching them straight to your heart! I love all her books and this one is a definite must read!

Untrainable
By: Jamie Schlosser
5 out of 5 stars

The story Untrainable by Jamie Schlosser is a romantic comedy that I loved reading. It is a book that draws you in from the very beginning and had me hooked. The main reason for me is the characters of Theodore “Theo-Dog” Legend and Hadley Holiday. Hadley is a woman who is intelligent, independent, and driven. She is kind, caring and compassionate. While Theo has quite a reputation Hadley finds him confident, intelligent, and perceptive. Theo can’t seem to keep his mind off of Hadley. He has a strong attraction to her. They both have their reasons for starting a new show together. Will the new show be just the thing to start Hadley on a new career and Theo to rid himself of his reputation? Will it be a disaster or the best thing that has happened to them? What does the future hold for them? Read this book to find out. This story is one that had me with a constant smile on my face and laughing out loud. The kind of laughter that could lead to you fall out of your seat! I also loved reading about the bantering that goes back and forth between Hadley and Theo. The book has moments that warm your heart and make you go “Aww.” I grew to love Hadley and Theo with every chapter that I read. They are characters that you can root for and want to be happy. There are also other additional characters that I enjoyed reading about the part they play in the story and also their interactions with Hadley and Theo. Don’t miss out on a story that you won’t want to put down until you find out the ending.

It doesn’t take much to become the laughing stock of reality television. Just ask Theodore “Theo-Dog” Legend. Once you’ve pissed on a fire hydrant in front of the paparazzi, no one ever lets you forget it.

Hadley Holiday is on her way to being America’s sweetheart, thanks to her dog training routine on a national talent show. Although she didn’t win first prize, she snagged Theo’s attention and he’ll do just about anything to make her his—even if it means being the butt of everyone’s joke once again.

Hadley wants a career in showbiz. Theo needs to get rid of that doggone nickname—pun intended. Pairing the two together on a new show sounds like a disaster waiting to happen… or it could be the best thing that’s ever happened to them.

Dropout (The Good Guys) by Jamie Schlosser – Review by Jana Teppih

Dropout (The Good Guys)Dropout by Jamie Schlosser
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dropout is the third book in Jamie Schlosser’s The Good Guys series that takes place in the little town of Tolson in the middle of nowhere of Midwest America! Well, you can read it as a standalone but really, why would you not read Trucker and Dancer before tackling Dropout knowing that you would get so much more out of it …
This story is about 19-year-old James ‘Jimmy’ Peabody Johnson and a 21-year-old Mackenna ‘Mack’ Connelly. I know I know, some would be put off by the age difference but heck, I have rarely met someone in their 20ies who would be as mature as Jimmy was. I do not believe in age, I believe in who you are deep down and he is kind, considerate and feels strong. Mack is another one who is way mature beyond her years and there is no surprise there, she has experienced a lot in her 21 years.
There are a lot of holy moly moments in this book, I cried and I laughed and I got angry … so I ran a whole gamut of emotions, it was that well written! Jamie really knows how to spin a story and pull you in (it was another late night with this book as I needed to finish it!).
I loved that the writer showed us that one does not need to go and get a college degree to be successful and happy in their lives, you simply need to find your passion and follow it. You can make a beautiful life in a small town amongst hard working people that have your back!
I very much enjoyed to get know Jimmy’s grandmother Beverly more (we met her first time in the first book and she was a total hoot!). She is such a character and she made me miss my grandmother who has been gone for over 20 years … What an acceptance and joie de vivre! Not a dull moment!
I invite you on a ride that will not leave you cold! I hope that Jamie will have some more Good Guys to write about!

Dancer (The Good Guys)Dancer by Jamie Schlosser
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dancer is the second book in Jamie Schlosser’s The Good Guys series. I have to admit, I jumped straight into it after finishing the first book (Trucker). Jamie did NOT disappoint me! It was actually quite a few degrees hotter than Trucker and it made so sense when I think of Colton. You can probably read it as a standalone but you get much more out of it if you read Trucker first!
Dancer is a hot and sexy ‘best friends falling in love’ story that blows you out of water! The chemistry between Colton Evans and Brielle “Ellie” Mitchell was off the charts, the story was fast paced but not too fast, I could not put it down until I had finished it (it was another late night for me…why could we not just live off reading books…).
I loved Brielle, she was such a sassy, independent and sweet girl who had made it through all those challenges thrown on her way, she comes through with flying colors (just picture a small town’s prejudice and gossip and … you hopefully can imagine what she has had to fight with). Colton is nothing to sneeze at either. Well, he is a 22-year-old with a little problem, things below his belt buckle have not been working the way they should and you can imagine how it makes him feel … Well, it takes only one glance and Ellie and that little problem is a problem of past …
Jamie throws in couple of unexpected twists that make sense and show us what Colton and Ellie are made of! I wish there were more 22 year olds of their caliber, we would have much more hope for a better future then!
I am sure that once you have read and loved Tucker, you will be like me, hungry for the next one!

Awesome book. Absolutely loved the story line.
Angels mother left her when she was seven, her father died when she was twelve and now at seventeen. The aunt who had raised her has died. Angel is now all alone and since she is under eighteen she has to go to a foster home. Two weeks before her eighteenth birthday she had had enough of being in the foster home and left. She decided she was going to California to meet her mother and hopefully the two could have a relationship. The first night of her travels was a twelve hour bus ride. Luckily she had slept most of that twelve hours. The second night she decided she would sleep in a cheap motel. Angel too another bus to Ohio and decided to hitchhike the test of the way to save her money. She stopped at a truck stop and got a drink and something to eat, she also badly needed to wash her hair. Doing this in the truck stop toilet she nearly slipped in the water she got every where. Deciding it was time to move she started to walk and thought the shoes she had on were no good for long walks. Travis in the meantime had left the truck stop and saw the girl he had seen at the truck stop hitchhiking. There was no way he was going to let her hitchhike so he pulled his truck over and told her to get in. Angel felt safe with Travis and thought he was the most gorgeous man she had ever seen. She asked Travis where he was going, he told her Tolson was the last stop. By the time they got to Tolsen je knew she was going to California to see her mother. He told her he was going that way in three weeks and would give her a lift. He also said she could stay at his place to save her money. Both were quite attracted to each other and in three weeks went from strangers to being in love. Neither of them told the other how they felt. The time had come for her to go to California. It was a hard trip for both Travis and Angel. The day after she arrived she went to see her mother. Her mother told her don’t change your life because i wouldn’t do it for you. In the mean time Travis had turned his truck around as he needed to tell Angel he loved her. When he got back to her hotel she waited till got back from the prison and noticed she was tearing up the post card. He went and say by her, she didn’t notice he was there until he said hi baby. She asked why was he here and he told her I had to tell you I love you and please come home.
