5 STAR REVIEW: New Orleans Rush by Kelly Siskind





Falling for your surly boss is a rotten idea.
Letting him saw you in half is even worse…


Beatrice Baker may be a struggling artist, but she believes all hardships have silver linings…until she follows her boyfriend to New Orleans and finds him with another woman. Instead of turning those lemons into lemonade, she drinks lemon drop martinis and keys the wrong man’s car.

Now she works for Huxley Marlow of the Marvelous Marlow Boys, getting shoved in boxes as an on-stage magician’s assistant. A cool job for some, but Bea’s been coerced into the role to cover her debt. She also maybe fantasizes about her boss’s adept hands and what else they can do.

She absolutely will not fall for him, or kiss him senseless. Until she does. The scarred, enigmatic Huxley has unwittingly become her muse, unlocking her artistic dry spell, but his vague nightly activities are highly suspect. The last time Beatrice trusted a man, her bank account got drained and she almost got arrested. Surely this can’t end that badly...right?

My Review 

I received an advanced copy of this book with the promise of an honest review.

First thing we need to talk about is how this story is about a magician. A magician! And he has magician brothers! I know I’ve never read a book about a family of magicians. So right away that grabbed my attention.

Huxley is the oldest of the Marlow boys. After his father died, Huxley took it upon himself to become the head of the family. He takes on all the problems and finds a way to fix things. The current problem is that he has no assistant and he’s a bit down on his luck, but that all changes when he meets Beatrice. 

Newly single and suddenly homeless, a short series events results in Beatrice owing Huxley. So she becomes his assistant, despite not knowing what she is doing. And her giant case of stage fright doesn’t help matters either.

Once Beatrice enters Huxley’s life, everything changes for the better. He’s known as the surly Marlow brother, but not with Beatrice. She has a knack of bringing out the best in the people around her and that is definitely the case with Huxley. He can't help but fall for her.

I just LOVED this book. Huxley was one of the more swoon worthy characters I’ve read recently. Beatrice and Huxley fell hard for each other and it was so lovely to watch unfold. Their relationship not only made me laugh at times, but I also got a little emotional at one point. And of course there was a whole lot of swoon going on. 

I can't recommend this book enough. The storyline was great and the secondary characters left me wanting more of their story. I smiled the whole time I read it and I was left with a delightful, warm fuzzy feeling. Go 1-click this book!
