Finally finished this. I liked it, but I had a lot of issues with it. Both of the main characters were rather unlikable. At least Gunnar, finally, realized that he had acted like an unfeeling jerk. Not that he actually admitted it to Noreen. There were some things that were just glossed over (told instead of shown) that should have been more detailed. Overall, I enjoyed the story, but I'm glad its over and I would certainly not read it again.

Spoilers:
I had a lot of issues with the story, especially the way Gunnar treated her. At least, near the end, Gunnar realized he had essentially raped Noreen and felt bad about it. And did other things to her against her will. He never did admit, to her, that what he did was wrong, though. And the way the situation ended, was contrived and unrealistic, with Alice and all. And honestly, they were considering visiting with Hollis? And taking the children? I don't think so! No way.… (meer)

Gray knew his love was out there. It was only a matter of time until they met. All his life he'd been preparing for that day. When it finally came during a quick stop in Vegas, Gray had to hold himself back to not look like a crazed stacker. She was exactly how he'd visioned her in his dreams, and he couldn't wait for her to realize he was her one true love throughout time.

Reed was used to her friend Sam getting all the attention. After all, she was tall and beautiful, not short and fully curved, like herself. So, when the devilishly handsome Gray announced that Reed was his interest, she was more than a little skeptical. Despite her better judgment, Reed agrees to a date with Gray and is treated to a night of unforgettable lovemaking. When he tells her he's in love with her and about a reoccurring dream he's had since teen hood, Reed must acknowledge that Gray might not be crazy after all. For she's had the same dream.

Together, Gray and Reed, they must find where they belong in this lifetime, while battling the demons that tried to tear them a part in the past.
Warning: F/M romance, fun riding lessons, and intriguing massages.

What can I say? It was a good book! For once it was the man who was the dreamer. The female wasn't a typical Barbie doll and the bad guy wasn't totally evil. Not that those things are bad, it's was just a nice refresher to read something different.

This is the second novel I've reviewed by Ms. O'Reilly and she proved herself to be a consistently well rounded author. I liked the touch of supernatural and the personal struggles that Reed needed to work through. Gray had his own complications he needed to face, and he did it without coming off as a 'macho man' or uncaring.

All and all, I found the humor and seduction a wonderfully well blended mix. Congratulations, Morgan Q. O'Reilly on Four Blue Roses!

Linnet Greenbriar wanted nothing but some seclusion. After a traumatic event at her old job, she's ready to be by herself in the outdoors of Circle, Alaska. Her job for the Fish and Game is simple: net fish in the mighty Yukon River, weigh and measure them, then throw'em back. But Linnet's peace and quiet soon comes to an end when Creed Willis shows up. This larger than life man with a soft spot for fish and flirting soon pulls Linnet out of her harden shell of self-protection.

Creed Willis has never had a relationship longer than one of his two week leaves. Woman fall at his feet and create no game for him to catch. So when he meets the independent Linnet Greenbriar, his first instinct is to reel her in. That is until he leans the secret she has kept, even from her family, for the last few years.

With trust building between them and the addition of Linnet's brothers arrival, the two begin learn there is love to be found on the Yukon River. All Creed has to do is Chinook, Wine and Sink Her.

Okay, I'm going to admit this--- I've loved this cover since it's release! HOT DAMN!! But seriously, Morgan Q. O'Reilly hit this emotional tale on the head. The distinctive characters had all their own personalities, which enabled the reader to never get confused with who is talking. A hard learned talent to hone.
The teasing and banter had me laughing out loud while the plot kept me intrigued. I loved her strong female Linnet and the male self confidence Creed eluded to let her work things emotionally out on her own.
A great summer read and more than worthy of Five Blue Roses! Congratulations, Morgan Q. O'Reilly.

Warning: F/M Romance, great sex, and a wild baby moose.
