When Kellson Berkley agrees to let his best friend's newest fiance stay in the house while both men areaway he has no idea how much his life will change.When he returns home and meets his best friend's fiancee he is shocked by a number of things. First, sheis beautiful. Second, she's actually smart. And third,she actually fits in better with his friends then his best fried ever did. And so begins the bid to spend asmuch time with her as possible before his best friend returns and breaks her heart.

Before I read this book I never knew exactly what a beach read was. Well this is it, pack a lunch and possibly a dinner because you won't want to leave this book even to eat. Addicting isn't even the word for this book. There may be no words to describe this book. Ms. Vance does something with this book that I think most romance author's forget to do, she builds complete charactors.There are no characters in this story that are underdeveloped or standard for theromance genre.
I strongly recommend this book to everyone even if romance is something you usually read or not. I am joining the others who have read this book and I'm hoping for a sequal.

This is another thrilling adventure of Brother Jerome and his friend Leo the friary cat. If you have not met these two, let me introduce you. Brother Jerome isa recently deceased friar who still visits his old home to check up on his friends. Leo is the friary cat. He is more then he seems. In fact, Leo is a quantum cat,a cat that is alive and dead at the same time. Because of this, Leo or Quaint as he is sometimes known serves as Father Jerome's guide and guardian in all his afterlife adventures.
Back at the friary, things are not going well either.The brothers have a new guardian Aidan, who has the reputation of being easy going. When he arrives, they discover he has changed. He is now very strict and rule abiding, something that that they are not. How will the brothers survive this unexpected change?
What does Brother Jerome learn on his adventures through Greece?

I love this book. I was ready to go out and buy itand the other books in this series the minute Ifinished this one. I strongly recommend this book for everyone. The author's ability to blend serious religious topics, art and fantasy together is something I have not seen since my last trip to Narnia.

So if you love that series or you miss MiddleEarth or it has been a while since you have seen the inside of Hogwarts do yourself a favor and try these books.

This is especially true now that the Harry Potter books are coming to an end. Ms Williams is a wonderful writer who has never let her readers down. I can not wait until her third book comes out.

Brother Jerome’s death was unexpected. The afterlife is not all it is cracked up to be either. In short, Brother Jerome is bored so he is more then happy to learn a new skill from his old friend Leo the friary cat. However, here Leo goes by the name Quantum and is no one’s pet.
Life back at the friary has gone on much the same as always. Leo is still fed scraps much to the dismay of the Guardian of the house. Speaking of the Guardian the brothers are beginning to wonder why he is spending so much time helping their new neighbor settle in. Honestly, this is not the best time to be dealing with the surprise visits of Brother Jerome as he pops in to check on his old friends. What is the Guardian doing at the neighbor’s house all this time? Will Brother Jerome ever master the ability to pop in unaided?
I loved this book too. The first book about Quantum the cat this book had me chucking in shared embarrassment as Brother Jerome discovers his new ability. I laughed aloud when Brother Jerome would yell at that darn cat, as Quant would disappear chuckling over Brother Jerome’s latest missed landing. I would end up sighing over the obvious affection shared by these two.
