I didn’t mean to bid on him.I’d attended my meddling Great Aunt Dotty’s local bachelor auction with every intention of winning a date with the handsome doctor in town I’ve had my eye on for a few years now. And even if that hadn’t been the case, believe you me, Sheriff Gamble is the absolute last man that should’ve been on my radar when the bidding began. It’s tough enough being a female deputy … enough being a female deputy in a small town and a big family with way more overprotective males than any single girl should have. Last thing I need is gossip flying about me and my admittedly hot, mysteriously brooding boss.
Still. Something happened when that auction got under way. Things got heated, and somehow I ended up outbidding every damn woman in the place.
Now, I’ve officially won buff, gruff Jude Gamble for eight hours next week.
And I don’t have a clue in hell what to do with him…

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. This story surprised me; I mean I knew from the title that Gamble and Siobhan would end up together, but it did not play out the way I thought it might. I was so happy to read who actually gave Siobhan her special nickname. I hope, hope, hope that this series continues with Siobhan’s brothers and sister!
The heat is on. The heart’s on notice and the humor just hit the fan. Every Last Call is every bit as naughty as it is fun. Wick continues to spice it up with a dash of emotion and sprinkle of sass. I love to watch a woman speak her mind and lose her heart all without losing herself. Siobhan is the sweetest kind of temptation. A heroine after my own heart.
Loved the book, the story was well written and the characters were intriguing. Once I started I could not get enough, from the start till the end I was engrossed I was even on the edge of my seat with twists and turns, lust and passion, strength and happiness with a happily ever after. Do yourself a favor and buy the book you want be disappointed.
Thank you for allowing me to review your book.

A great novella to end this series! The heroine in this story has been dogging the other characters throughout the series and finally we find out her secrets and just what she and the Sheriff have been circling around all the while. Cute and sexy story with a small action/mystery bit thrown in.
I probably should not have picked a novella to be my first read by this author. I want more now LOL This friends-to-lovers workplace romance gave me too small a taste and now I’m reading this entire series from the beginning! We can thank COVID-19 and my love of reading in equal parts for that!!
Likeable characters with great chemistry and a storyline that is both sexy and sweet with just the right amount of emotion and conflict! It’s a #win for me. I’m super glad a ran into this ARC on Booksprouts and cant wait to read the previous books in the His to Claim series!
I really enjoy series and I have been waiting eagerly for Siobhan’s story. I liked this book a lot but I also admit to feeling a bit disappointed by it. Don’t get me wrong, there is plenty to love here. To start the characters are likable and easy to root for, the story line offers a entertaining balance of fun and serious, great chemistry, sparks and heat, a family that never fails to leave you wanting to learn more about them, a cast of secondary characters that add interest and charm and an enticing blend of emotion, drama, excitement, sweetness, desire and romance that makes the pages fly by. So, yeah, I know what your asking, “If you have all this greatness, why was I left feeling so disappointed?” This is a novella length read and I felt that really impacted this story. These were complex characters that shared a relationship that had many challenges and complications that I just felt were wrapped up way to quickly for my liking. So while I enjoyed this romance I was left desperately wanting more depth. Still I thought this was a good read and I look forward to hopefully many more entries in this series.
To protect and to serve. the story starts in an unexpected shoot out. Siobhan and the sheriff, Jude Gamble are brought up for review because he comforts her and it’s recorded on the police dash. Throughout this whole book, things kind of get convoluted. They are both have attraction for either, one longer, much longer than the other one but it all comes to ahead. I kind a got confused about the investigation. But I did not get confused about the attraction that these two have for each other. There is hyperventilating, fainting, and first times for both parties. funny parts and a threatened resignation. Shorter than that or her other works but still entertaining.

Siobhan and Jude started out as friendly adversaries. Tables turn when she bids on him during a charity auction.
Siobhan and Jude find themselves dealing with fallout from a traffic stop that went wrong a few months prior to the charity auction.
The chemistry between these two characters is hot. The dialogue between these two is fun. It was fun reading how great aunt Dotty manipulated characters into their happy endings. Can’t wait to read the other stories in this series.
I enjoy the world building of the author, Ms. Wick. I will be looking forward to more tales.
This is my first book in this series and I have bought the rest of them ! Siobhan is sweet and she has a thing for Jude who is her boss. One day something throws them together and their attraction ignites. It is a short entertaining read.

A delightfully hot romance!
I do enjoy the Turk family and all the shenanigans they get up to.
Siobhan Turk is one I’ve had my eye on through the other family stories. She’s always trying to fix things up and ignoring the tempting sheriff right in front of her. This story follows them through some pretty traumatic times, causing Jude Gamble to express himself. I swear, these two are meant to be! I love seeing them give in to their feelings. Watching great aunt Dottie plot for future weddings is a real kick!
A fun office romantic comedy story you’ll definitely enjoy reading. When Siobhan goes to the bachelor auction, the last thing she planned was bidding on her boss and she definitely didn’t plan on winning that bid. Love in the workplace has never been more entertaining. Wonderful characters and a very well written story line keeps you turning the pages. You won’t be disappointed when you read this book.

Go to a bachelor auction, what’s the worst that could happen? You bid on your hot boss and win. Love strikes at the workplace but both Siobhan and Jude Gamble try to keep their relationship professional. If only they could stop falling in love with each other. Which is easier said than done. Great book with great characters. It is a fast paced read.

Cute, fun novella length rom-com. Jude and Siobhan have denied their feelings to themselves and to each other because they work together. When Jude is part of a bachelor auction, Siobhan bids on him and then has to figure out what to do. Jude is very protective of Siobhan even though he knows she is quite capable as a Deputy. I loved their back and forth relationship and how they worked it out.

What I like best about Jude and Siobhan is their opposites attract vibe. Jude seems to be all intense and all hands on deck, while trying to maintain his cool. Siobhan is intense about her job, but tries to act all nonchalant when it comes to Jude. I like all of the other characters. I like the bit of action and suspense that is thrown in. I like Jude being all protective of Siobhan. I like that Cassian knows how Jude feels. I like Siobhan being all tiger mom over the man gobbler. This is a fun and sexy story. It is quick and easy to read.

This was a short and sweet love story. Co-workers turn more when a crafty aunt sets in motion a sweet and fun love story. Gamble and Siobhan’s story was fun and easy to read. The story was interesting and addictive. I was a great story and I’m excited to read more from Christa in the future

When Jude finds himself being part of the bachelor auction the last person he expected to bid on him was Siobhan, the employee that he has been trying to deny his feelings for.
The only person that was more surprised was Siobhan but now that she has won him what is she going to do with him?
Sweet and sexy these two couldn’t have been more perfect for each other.
Great Read
Well, well, well.
Looka here…..another piece of the puzzle of the life and times of Turk Family.
I’m completely addicted to this series. Hey, what can I say I truly enjoy this series… let me just say that this collection is like watching favorite favorite soaps… and until next time…. I am just patiently awaiting the next episode.

Finally….these two get together after many years being in each other’s orbit. Graham, the town sheriff and Siobhan who is now a Deputy, who have known each other for years, finally take their friendship to the next level. Graham has known for awhile that he wants Siobhan, but she is stubborn and has set her eyes on the town doctor…until…an auction has her bidding for her boss so the town man eater doesn’t get her claws in him. Now with the date coming upon them, Siobhan has to decide whether to go ahead or bail.
A good read with steam and I loved that we finally got their story but it was missing something for me. It seemed rushed and if I didn’t know the other books and who these two were, I would have been lost. I also would have liked to know what happened on the date her brother and the man eater had and a bit more on how the others reacted to them being together finally. I did LOVE that Gamble wasn’t a man wh*** and that when Siobhan stops fighting the attraction, she’s all in.
