Two Crazy Ladies Love Romance #BookReview: Shelter For Sophie by Susan Stoker




Shelter For Sophie
(Badge of Honor: Texas Heroes #8
by Susan Stoker



She’s shy, he’s stoic…not the hardest personality traits to overcome, but Sophie Carson and Roman “Chief” Proudfit have their work cut out for them. 

Sophie has a crush on the silent-but-studly firefighter next door. She’s been pining away silently while secretly helping the hardworking man by mowing his lawn—which he thinks is being done by her nonexistent husband and/or boyfriend. He’s definitely not big on neighborly chitchat, but with her stutter, that suits Sophie just fine. But now a misunderstanding at a bar has put him even further out of her reach. 

Roman’s difficult upbringing on an Indian reservation is a sore spot, so when he thinks Sophie is taking advantage of poor people for medical trials at her workplace, he lets her know exactly what he thinks. But when he discovers he misunderstood, he’s man enough to admit it…and also that he should have opened his eyes to his beautiful, sensitive neighbor sooner. 

As the couple gets closer, each helping the other overcome lifelong pains, for the first time in years, Roman has something to live for other than his job. And, as he discovers when Sophie puts herself in danger, something even bigger to lose… 

** Shelter for Sophie is the 8th book in the Badge of Honor: Texas Heroes Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.





Review:
5 stars

I honestly wish I could give this book a rating of 10 stars, but I can only give it 5.
She’s a shy woman and he is an Alpha through and through, and not the easiest person, but Sophie Carson and Roman “Chief” Proudfit have their work cut out for them. 
Sophie has had a crush on the silent firefighter next door, she has been watching out for him even to the point of mowing his lawn, which he believes is being done by her nonexistent husband or boy friend. 
He is quite, but with her stutter, that suits Sophie just fine. But now a misunderstanding at a bar has put him even further out of her reach. With being brought up on a reservation some of the things he overhears about her helping poor people makes him think she is taking advantage of them. But when he discovers he misunderstood, he’s man enough to admit it…and also that he should have opened his eyes to his beautiful, sensitive neighbor sooner. 
As they get to know each other and get closer they are also helping each other overcome some of their past, for the first time in years, Roman has something to live for other than his job. And, as he discovers when Sophie puts herself in danger, something even bigger to lose… 

I received a free copy for my honest review!
