Review: Love on Loch Ness By Aubrie Dionne @AuthorAubrie @GHBTours #Giveaway

Love on Loch Ness

By- Aubrie Dionne

Genre- Paranormal Romance 

Dr. Gail Phillips steps onto the shores of Loch Ness to disprove the Loch Ness monster theory for good so everyone can stop wasting their time. As a marine biologist with a background in archeology, she's convinced all of the world's myths such as Big Foot, the Tasmanian devil, and even Nessie are lies. Her father disappeared while following Yettie tracks in the Alps, and she doesn't want to lose another mislead soul. 

Flynn Maloney comes from a family of fanatic cryptozoologists. As a native of Scotland, he believes in Nessie as strong as Gail believes in science. Despite his initial attraction for her, he's joined her research team to prove her wrong. He wants to find Nessie for a special girl in his life, to show her dreams really can come true. 

As they conduct sonar studies and sweeps of the lake, their differing opinions are at odds with their budding attraction. Gail doesn't believe in anything unscientific, such as romance, thinking the charming Flynn Maloney is full of baloney. Flynn can't believe he's falling for someone with no imagination or faith. To make matters worse, their videographer is covering his true identity. Together they must unravel his plan before he destroys everything they are working for. Will Gail force Flynn to question his faith, or will she discover more than she bargained for in the Scottish highlands?

My Review-

I received a free copy of the book from the author for my honest opinion.

I have read several books by author Aubrie Dionne in more than one genre and loved them all. So when I saw that Love on Loch Ness was written by Aubrie Dionne that is all I needed to say yes to reading and reviewing. Aubrie Dionne is one of the best authors around. She is definitely on my top list of authors. With Aubrie's books I don't need to read the summary I just know it will be good. Aubrie Dionne is an author that you need to add to your list of best authors to read.

Dr. Gail Phillips is a marine biologist who grew up with a father that believed in myths like Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster. Whenever he heard of a new sighting of one of the myths he would pack his bags and take off where ever it maybe and Gail always went along for the ride. But one day Gail's father took off chasing one of his myths without Gail following behind and he never returned. Gail's mother went every year looking for her father but she never found him. Gail always felt guilty about not going with her father that day she thought that if she had went with him and something happened she might be able to have gotten help for him and he wouldn't have disappeared. She lived with that guilt her whole life and was determined to prove that all myths were all lies.

Flynn Maloney believed in all of the myths himself like Gail's father and was determined to prove that the Loch Ness Monster or Nessie as they called her or it in Scotland. Flynn wanted to prove that Nessie was real for a very special little lady in his life whom he cared for very much and would do anything for.

When Gail and Flynn met the sparks started to fly. The fact that Flynn believed in Nessie and Gail didn't obviously did not stop them from having feelings for each other. Gail wanted to prove Flynn wrong and he wanted to prove her wrong. They were both very good people and never wanted to hurt anyone but they each had their beliefs. Who will prove who wrong? Will Gail prove Flynn wrong or will Flynn prove Gail wrong? Will they fall in love with each other and will that love be strong enough to hold together when one of them proves the other one wrong?

Excerpt:

The warm, squirrely sensation festering in my gut grew stronger with each second that passed. Despite my best efforts to ignore it, and him, I finally gave in and looked over my shoulder. I was immediately sorry I'd done so.

Jet eyes filled with what appeared to be a heavy amount of disgust regarded me coolly. I frowned and glanced down at my feet, insecurity smothering me like a thick blanket. Why was he mean mugging me? I didn't know him. He didn't know me. Why was he so pissed? I took a chance and dared another peek in his direction. I was shocked to find him glaring at me still, his expression angrier if that were even possible.

He crossed his arms over his chest and raised a brow. "Seriously? You're just gonna stand there and look pretty the entire period? How 'bout you at least move out of the way so the rest of us can get what we need?"

I blanched, unable to speak, let alone move. In another circumstance, I'd feel giddy about his reference to my "being pretty", but as it stood, I felt sick. Clearly irritated, a healthy dose of sarcasm coated his deep voice. Why were there never any holes around when you needed them? I was ready to crawl into one and assume the fetal position.

"Back off, asshat," Erin snapped. She brushed past me and opened the cupboard I'd been standing in front of, and pulled out a stack of aprons. With a huff, she snatched an aging blue apron from the top of the pile and flung it at my handsome hater, the soft cotton fabric hitting him in the face. "She's new and doesn't know where everything is yet."

He didn't say anything else; just scowled for what I assumed he felt was good measure before pulling a ball of pastry dough out of the small refrigerator below.

"Ignore him," Erin said, as she handed me an apron. "Bodie Scott is a douche with a bad temper, and totally not worth your time."

I mashed my lips together and gave her a nod, doing my best to ignore the pang of hurt whirling in my chest, and the odd tingling sensation skimming across my flesh. My short time at Grant High thus far had been anything but great. I'd been heckled by a group of Victoria Secret Angel wannabes. I'd flirted with a hot guy who turned out to be dating the one person who'd tried to befriend me. For reasons unknown to me, I'd pissed off the only other guy I'd come across in ages who'd had any sort of impact on me. If the morning's events were any indicator of how the rest of my day would be, I was screwed.
