Description:
In the final book in bestselling author Catherine Bybee’s
Most Likely To trilogy, River Bend’s rebel follows in her father’s footsteps to
become sheriff. But it might be time to forge her own path…
Some kids inherit a family business; Jo Ward inherited a badge.
Once voted Most Likely to End Up in Jail, the town wild child has become
sheriff—hell-bent on uncovering the truth about her father’s mysterious death.
Life is quiet in rustic River Bend, but Jo longs for something beyond her small
hometown and the painful memories it holds. All that keeps her sane is the
support of her best friends, Melanie and Zoe.
But when Jo signs up for an expert law enforcement
training seminar, she meets Gill Clausen, whose haunting eyes and dangerously
sexy vibe just may challenge her single-minded focus. Commitment-phobic Jo
can’t deny her attraction to the arrogant federal agent, and when odd things
start happening around River Bend and danger surrounds her, she realizes she’ll
need his help to discover who’s out to remove her from River Bend…permanently.
As Jo and Gill work
together, it’s clear they make a great team. But can Jo loosen her grip on the
past enough to let love in and reach for the future?

Catherine Bybee is fast becoming one of my auto-buy authors.
This is the third book in the Most Likely to series and completes
the stories of three best friends. When I received an invitation from the
publisher, via Net-Galley, to read and review, I immediately accepted.
Jo Ward is sheriff of River Bend. Her father was sheriff
before his untimely death, and Jo believes his death was no accident. Although
many years have passed, she is not willing to let it go.
While attending a law enforcement seminar to gain additional
tools in her investigation, she meets Gill Clausen. The attraction between them
is too strong to deny, and she believes she is involved in a fling that will
end when the seminar does. Imagine her surprise when Gill shows up in River
Bend determined to turn their brief affair into something more permanent.
Will Gill convince Jo he is worth giving up her commitment phobia,
or will Jo keep her heart locked up?
Making it Right is a nice finish to this excellent series. This
romance has a fantastic hero and a snarky heroine, great pacing, and an
intriguing plot. While this one is not my favorite of the three books, I did
enjoy it and was glad to see Jo get her happy ending.
Jo is a kick-some-butt kind of heroine, yet is still able to
show her vulnerable side. I ended up liking her more than I expected since that
is not my favorite character arch. What I liked most about her character was
her desire to help teens. Her heart was in the right place.
Gill is yummy as the hero. He has all the ingredients I love
in the male lead. He’s honorable, loyal and caring. He truly wants to earn Jo’s
trust and her love and is willing to hang in there when she tries to push him
away.
If you enjoy a romance with a great set of characters, and
one with plenty of action mixed in, then you will love Making it Right. While it
is not necessary to read the books in this series, I do recommend reading the
other two books as well. Happy reading!
Thank you for the lovely review.
