Kate Evans has grown up in the small town of Sunshine,
Idaho. After college, she comes back to teach school
there. She has also come home to a very needy family.
Kate has always taken care of everyone in her family, and
after her mother's death, it's expected of her to continue
to do so. Kate is your typical small-town girl; but she
wants to break the mold. Although shy and a bit repressed,
Kate wants more. She has dreams of attending graduate
school; and to forge a path outside the monotony of her
small town world. Kate wants a new life and be a new
woman; if she can just find the right man to show her the
way. After meeting back up with Griffin, Kate decides he
will do nicely, and the chase is on.
Griffin Reid also grew in Sunshine; but escaped to the
military to get out of the small town life. The big,
tough, Special Ops soldier has seen it all and done it
all. He's back in Sunshine for two reasons. One is to be
a groomsman in the wedding of his sister Holly to his close
friend Adam. The other reason is much more private. After
being injured in Afghanistan by a roadside bomb, he is
facing a long period of recuperation for his head trauma.
Griffin's plan is to get through the wedding and healing
time; and then to blow out of town once again. If only he
didn't keep running into and battling wits with a certain
sexy, charming little elementary school teacher. They keep
being thrown together, and tiptoe around the attraction
until all around good girl Kate makes a stand, and an offer
Griffin can't refuse.
RUMOR HAS IT is an entertaining romp of a love story about
two people finding love whether they want to or not; and is
both sexy and humorous. As always in a story from author
Jill Shalvis, the characters are well fleshed-out and
believable. This is another great turn in the
excellent Animal Magnetism series chronicling the
lives
and loves of some of the denizens of Sunshine, Idaho. This
is a great story, and it is not necessary to have read the
previous books to enjoy the read.
Special Ops soldier Griffin Reid doesn't exactly have
happy memories of growing up in Sunshine, Idaho. He's only
come back to recover from a war injury, and while he refuses
to admit he's in a weakened state, he finds comfort in the
last person he'd expect.
Kate Evans teaches fourth grade science in Sunshine, the
place she's always called home. Dreaming of graduate school
and a happily–ever–after, she's desperate to
break out of the monotony of Sunshine. Luckily, a certain
sexy man has just come back into her life.
To Griffin, Kate as always been his little sister's
friend, but now he's finding her to be so much more. As both
attempt to forge their paths, they must decide if their
passionate connection can turn into something lasting?
