Look up ‘cocky’ in the dictionary–overconfident, arrogant, and has an answer for everything. That’s Colby McGregor, third in line for the McGregor billionaire dynasty, adventure capitalist, and all-round pain in my backside.It’s my ability to siphon the attitude from his veins that brought us together, but it’s the above points keeping me around. He brings out a side of me no one has seen in … seen in years–the playful, adventurous side. However, our game of tit-for-tat isn’t child’s play. If we’re not careful, more than our blossoming friendship will be on the line.
The Drop Zone is a slow-burn friends to lovers romantic comedy with a cocky, swoon-worthy hero who’ll prove not every story is meant to be read front to back. Sometimes, it’s the pages that slip out of a book that are the most rewarding. It’s a complete standalone with no cliffhangers.

So I have had this book on my tbr pile for a little while and after I finished I wondered why in the heck did it take me so long. Yup all my fault, especially when I read some lord why did I waste my time on this books, alas there is nothing I can do, however now I know that when I see this author on a request to grab it. Ok now to the real review and not my rambling. We meet Colby and he is a cocky, good looking playboy and come on my friends it seems that if the guy doesn’t sleep around than he can’t be a main character, right does anyone feel that way? Anywho, so meet him and I honestly I would have been oh so happy if I did not have to read about him getting in on with some other person I mean really would have been happy without it, nevertheless we get it. Then we have Jamie, oh Jamie I almost stop reading because she was a doormat, and I hate hate hate those types of people, there is no reason none for anyone to put up with cheating, unless you are homeless with children, none. So these two are totally opposites so you couldn’t imagine them developing a strong friendship right, but they do and it was the best thing for them, but to me especially for Jamie, because do to him and there other friend they got her away from a horrible relationship, she deserved better.

Colby McGregor is confident, arrogant, and self-assured – but there is more to him than just that. He takes pride in his work and that aspect of his life has his full commitment. Because of an incident that occurred with one of The Drop Zone skydiving clients having a heart attack, they now have to work with Assessor Jamie Burgess to obtain their insurance.
After a rocky start, Jamie and Colby actually start to become good friends, which is a whole new experience for the man who can have any woman he wants and is not used to taking the time to build trust and genuine friendship with a woman. Her fiancé, Brad, is a creep, but she is not unfaithful to him. This story line will take the reader through a vast array of emotions – but it will leave a lasting impression! Now Jamie just needs to dump Brad out of her life and take a look at the man who will be worth all her trouble in the end! Grab your copy and find out what happens in this exciting story that will pull the reader in from start to finish!

OMG! This was so fresh and funny and serious and steamy and ugly crying all rolled up in one. The story has adventure by the bucketloads and even some healthy dancing and good ole fashioned mud wrestling of the most extremely funny kind! I loved that Colby talks with the reader. I usually don’t have any spoilers in my reviews but this was so darn great I had to!
Give the would be reader an excellent review to know that this is great stuff!!

This is book one in the Thrill Seekers series. Colby McGregor is a very strong, confident male that most refer to as a cocky SOB. Due to an incident at work he has the insurance folks coming in. Jamie is his insurance assessor and she is his opposite but is happily engaged and finds Colby a pain in her butt most days. But as time passes and these two spend more time together than Jamie would like her thoughts and feelings on life and Colby begin to change. The complications between these two begin to rise as well as their heart rates. I really loved reading this story it was so much more than a hot romance story, it was about finding friendship and developing trust between Colby and Jamie that really turns into so much more. I have read a few of this author’s books and I have never been disappointed in the great story and the characters that are created that bring everything together. Enjoy!

4 1/2 Stars
I’m not a fan of the main character having a graphic scene with OW even though he hadn’t met the heroine yet. Still, Colby had a lot of hidden issues that didn’t come out until the end of the book.
Well written with quick witty and fast paced dialogue that flowed well in this romance.
I really disliked Jamie’s willingness to take Brad’s cheating and degrading ways. Not the kind of female lead I could root for. Somewhere around the fifty percent mark, she started to change for the better and I started to be team Jamie.
Lots up ups and downs with this complex couple as additional drama with hereditary illness struck both of them to their core.
Kudos to the author for pulling it all together with an emotional and drama filled ending. The epilogue raised the rating for me with a super good feel good ending.

This was a good read. Not my favorite from this author but all in all a good read.
What a lovely book. It was emotional and dealt with a very difficult subject with tact and empathy. At the beginning Jamie is the epitome of ‘none are so blind as those that will not see’ but Colby and Tyrone soon open her eyes. Colby on the other hand is the perennial playboy but he has a secret that makes him that way and once the reader knows the secret everything falls into place. I laughed and I cried reading this book and couldn’t put it down. I cannot recommend it enough it was amazing.
This storyline has so many different elements, humour, heartache ,suffering and loss and love.
ALWAYS LOVE
Jamie Burgess is an insurance assessor who works for the company that wants to assess
ongoing coverage for a skydiving company called Drop Zone after a recent insurance claim.
Colby Mc Gregor who owns Drop Zone is quite the arragant wealthy playboy who thrives on the adrenaline, or so it would seem.
Their relationship is completely business oriented after Colby is made aware that Jamie is engaged and their friendship becomes quite strong.
Somehow Colby brings out the hidden layers underneath her prim and proper demeanor and their friendship becomes more only after everything changes and their lives become intertwined together through tragedy.
This book was funny sad emotional uplifting and at times difficult to read. I thoughly enjoyed reading. I hope to read more adventures of these characters.
