The whole works She finds herself up near the Barrier Reef working with a team supervising the installation of a new shiploader and the work is far exciting and interesting than counting cracks She s beginning to fit in with the crew on site although they re mostly men and seem hell bent on trying to be the first to get a date with her However Emily is surprised when it s none other than Will that captures her interest She and Will have been best friends for years and she s never had these sorts of feelings for him before She s not quite sure what to do about them.

Despite only being in her thirties and she cares for their mother who has Alzheimer s and spends most days thinking it s 30 years ago and that Charlotte is a receptionist She approaches the project manager Mark Crawford known to everyone on site as Caesar about possibly setting down some rules about respect for property and finds herself given the brush off every time Charlotte is incensed by his rudeness and makes up her mind to teach him some manners. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The Girl In The Yellow Vest is Loretta Hill s third book in a very loosely connected series that revolves around young engineers working on large projects I really enjoyed both the previous books which were set on the same project in northern Western Australia and for this book we switch to Queensland Emily went to university with Lena from The Girl In Steel Capped Boots and she s watched her graduating class all go on to fun and exciting jobs whilst her career has stalled.

Running away and basically doing whatever it is to get rid of her I thought Mark s reasons for being the way he was were genuine and believable and it was interesting reading about a man in his position and how he felt about it and the heartbreak and later awkwardness of receiving his list of challenges and the determined way in which he goes about fulfilling every item Mark definitely had hidden depths and he became my favourite character in the book I really loved the way we were drip fed information about him that changed the reader s perceptions and Hill put him in so many uncomfortable situations As long as Loretta Hill keeps writing these.

We can t choose who we fall in love with It could be our best friend or our worst enemy Emily Woods counts cracks for a living Concrete cracks So when her long term boyfriend dumps her she decides it s time for a change of scenery Her best friend Will suggests joining his construction team in Queensland Working next door to the Great Barrier Reef seems like just the sort of adventure she needs to reboot her life until she realises that Will is not the person she thought he was. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Charlotte Templeton is frustrated with the lack of respect FIFO workers have for her seaside resort But picking a fight with their tyrannical project manager Mark Crawford seems to lead to complications than resolutions The man is too pompous too rude and too damned good looking. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite As both women strive to protect their dreams and achieve their goals they discover that secrets will come out loyalty often hurts and sometimes the perfect man is the wrong one The Girl in the Yellow VestThe third book in a loosely linked series The Girl in the Yellow Vest is another engaging Australian contemporary romance by talented Aussie author Loretta Hill. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Emily Woods was expecting her boyfriend of five years to propose instead he asked her to move out and with her engineering career stalled she is in desperate need of a fresh start so when her best friend Will offers to find her work at his current project on Queensland s coast Emily jumps at the chance Will is excited at the prospect of Emily joining him in Mackay for five long years he has been careful to never betray his attraction to her but now that she is single perhaps he will find an opportunity to tell her how he feels. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite I enjoyed the change of scenery Hill provides in The Girl in the Yellow Vest Previous books The Girl in Steel Capped Boots and The Girl in the Hard Hat featured Western Australia s Pilbara region while here Hill sets the book in Northern Queensland based on a project she once worked at the Hay Point Wharf. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Emily and Will s transition from friends to lovers is slow but lovely both are afraid of damaging their close friendship and admitting their mutual attraction Will is especially wary given his long standing friendship with Emily s ex and the possibility they might make up It takes a good while for Emily to realise that her feelings for Will have changed and their attempts to connect are plagued by miscommunication poor timing and outside interference. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The subplot involving Barnes Inc boss Mark Crawford and hotel owner Charlotte Templeton tends to steal the limelight from Emily and Will though Charlotte struggling with a failing business a rebellious teenage sister and ill mother and Mark still mired in grief after the death of his wife two years previously barely tolerate each other to begin with and the complications of their lives affects the way in which their relationship develops. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Really my only complaint about the novel is in regards to Mark who apart from being very similar to Dan Bulldog in The Girl in the Steel Capped Boots his speech in particular is too formal and often didn t sound true. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite I did really enjoy The Girl in the Yellow Vest I love the way the author combines humour romance and drama in an unique Australian setting It was also lovely to be briefly reunited with previous characters the book opens at Dan and Lena s wedding and I look forward to catching up with these characters again in Hill s next book The Girl in the Yellow Vest Emily Woods has just been dumped by her long term boyfriend Trent Not only has Emily been dumped by her boyfriend but she s also unhappy in her job Feeling in a bit of a slump her best friend but will talking to Mark about the issues she has with his workers make any difference As well as trying to run the resort Charlotte also cares for her sixty year old mother who is suffering Alzheimer s disease And she also looks after her fifteen year old sister who can be quite a hand full at times. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Seeing one day that Emily is being given a bit of a hard time from the other workers Charlotte intervenes and from that day on they become friends Having someone to share her problems with makes the world of difference to Charlotte She not only has to deal with everyday things but she also carries around a deep secret But one day that secret will come out and the lives of her loved one will change forever unless she can put a stop to it. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite I absolutely LOVED this book This is the first book I ve read by Aussie author Loretta Hill and it certainly won t be my last I enjoyed all the characters especially Charlotte s mother as she had me laughing out loud A fantastic read which I HIGHLY recommend If you like a bit of humour romance and drama then make sure you read this fabulous book I guarantee you won t be disappointed The Girl in the Yellow Vest 4. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The story starts in Perth Western Australia and meanders over to sunny Nth QLD Fantastic tale about a diverse crew of FIFO workers who work on a construction site and live in a seaside resort nearby in North Queensland. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Two romances one was kind of cutesy and the other was frigging hilarious the hero Mark will have you hooting with laughter at the sarcastic wit that comes out of his mouth Compelling characters and a scrub turkey called Augustus make this book a joy to read The Girl in the Yellow Vest I was looking forward to reading this as I have enjoyed the two previous novels At the beginning of this story I thought that it was very similar to the previous stories angry boss new girl to the company and it took me three quarters of the way through to make me think the characters were unique and interesting But by then everything was wrapping up Overall an enjoyable story but it did not live up to my expectations The Girl in the Yellow Vest Emily Woods was devastated Five years with Trent and he d just dumped her With her job having turned boring and mundane her personal life at the bottom of the pile Emily was certainly at a crossroads in her life So when her best friend Will who also happened to be Trent s best friend suggested she apply for a job with Barnes Inc where he worked the idea of Queensland the Great Barrier Reef plus new beginnings stirred her imagination Moving from Perth in WA to Queensland was just about as far away as she could get Now she just needed to get the job Mark Crawford or Caesar as he was known behind his back was a surly obstinate and obnoxious boss When Will managed to break through his barriers to have Emily start with Barnes Inc he was shocked But her position was assured and after a few days Will suddenly wondered what he had gotten her into a place where the workers were only guys a place where those guys hadn t spent time with a woman in a very long time had he made the right decision for Emily Charlotte Templeton was the manager of Silver Seas Resort where the workers from Barnes Inc lived She was a determined young woman who had it tough looking after her mother who had developed Alzheimer s disease plus her fifteen year old sister Zara was hard enough But keeping up to a mob of messy untidy drunken men who were seemingly determined to wreck her apartments was just about the last straw With Emily and Charlotte becoming firm friends they needed to support one another there was confusion hurt a devastating secret which came to light unwelcome male attention all this and but they did their best to help one another But was to come Would Emily and Charlotte find happiness Or would the rising complications threaten their very future I thoroughly enjoyed this second book I have read from Aussie author Loretta Hill The Girl in the Hard Hat was my first into her work which I also enjoyed very much The mystery and suspense edged with tinges of romance the descriptions of the areas Loretta uses in her stories everything is authentic Mixed with humour is innocence frustration and adventure Loretta Hill is a great storyteller and I have no hesitation in recommending both her as an author and this great book.

The Girl In The Yellow Vest is an entertaining and compelling read that you won t want to put down It s a quirky and fun filled narrative that will have you laughing and crying along with its batty array of characters that is bound to leave you feeling good about life at the end With it s exotic location sizzling chemistry and all around Australian Charm its not a book you ll want to miss. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite It s no secret that I m a huge fan of Loretta Hill s writing it was something akin to love at first read when I read her first book back in 2012 Since Then I ve purchased everything she has out and will continue to do so for a long time to come It must be said though that although I was extremely excited to read this novel I spent most of 2013 counting down to it s release I was apprehensive about it for I learnt early this year that this novel although part of book series was to be set in Queensland instead of the Pilbara in Western Australia Having read the entire 380 pages in one day I can safely say any fears I had over this book not living up to expectation where ill founded and put to rest early on The narrative is nothing short of Hill s trademark whit and originality with well thought out characters a vibrant background and rare look at a widely unknown male dominated industry. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The Girl In The Yellow Vest is slightly different to Hill s two previous novels in a variety of ways The most obvious being the new and exotic location of Hay Point Wharf in Queensland which just so happens to virtually back on to The Great Barrier Reef Also different is the narrative approach of the story for The Girl In The Yellow Vest is told through the four main characters perspectives in alternating chapters I especially loved this change to the books as it allowed for a greater character depth across all the characters but also it allowed a dual love story to develop and play out simultaneously across centre stage The narrative change doesn t come without limitations and issues of its own however as the perspective change meant it took me slightly longer to immerse myself in the book as I learnt who everyone was and their individual nuances Also towards the later half of the book there is a time jump between the two distinct romance stories which sort of threw the narrative in a small way. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite As usual Hill s characterisation is spot on with larger then life characters dominating the somewhat harsh and unforgiving landscape and workforce I particularly enjoyed the character development of Emily Woods who we first meet as a newly single engineer who has no idea where her life is going Having spent five years playing yes man to the man she thought was about to propose Trent only to have him kick her out of his house she has no idea what to expect from the world Vulnerable and out of whack with the world she jumps at the opportunity to come work with her best friend Will up in Queensland Being one of a handful of women on site she is forced rather quickly to grow a back bone or face the possibility of the men walking all over her What s I loved her chemistry with Will s character The two of them has some great interactions where their personalities really shine as did their social predicament Both are relatable and realistic character who are easy to identify with. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Charlotte Templton is a fiery independent woman who is desperately trying to save her family business that the mess the FIFO workers are wrecking havoc on With a mother sliding into the depths of Alzheimer s and a fifteen year old sister under her guardianship the last thing she wants is to have to deal with the very stubborn and stoic Barnes INC leader Mark Crawford But deal she does Mark s character was the hardest to connect with due to his cold closed off nature and angry persona As we learn about his past however his actions become not only understandable but almost forgiveable That said I can t shy away from my slight disappointment in the way in which Mark s character and his back story is very much similar to Dan Bulldog s from The Girl In The Steel Capped Boots I would have liked to have seen a bit originality there Largely though as the book progressed I did come to really like Mark especially throughout his interactions with Charlotte The two of them sparring and their very formal way of speaking and addressing each other as both refreshing and a shining example of the pure humour and warmth Hill is renown for. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Supporting characters such as Nova Anne and Dipper Will s colleagues and Virginia and Zara Templeton Charlotte s Mother and Sister were a great addition to the already bulging cast of vibrant characters that Hill effortless creates In fact one of my biggest praises for Hill s work is probably centred around her ability to not only create such amazing full of life and versatile characters but her ability to sustain these characters in a variety of situations with true to life dialogue and actions. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Another welcomes surprised is the way in which many of Hill s previous well loved characters make cameos in this narrative The book opens with Lena and Dan Bulldog s wedding where we also see Carl and Sharon Later on in the novel Chub and Annabel make an appearance as does Fish who after getting fired from the Pilbara in the last book is now working in Queensland under Mark Caesar s rule The inclusions of these characters not only made me smile but their early connection meant I was better able to place this book in regards to the previous stories. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The Girl In The Yellow Vest is my FAVOURITE summer read so far it will beI love the backstory of each character the tragic story of Mark losing his wife and brother Charlotte have to sacrifice her career to focus on keeping her family together Will have been in love with Emily but could not even tell her how he is feeling And Emily is in her journey in finding herself back Sometime so many bad things happened and we prone to lose ourselves a bit Just wondering how Mark and Charlotte will work their relationship as they have so much tension and Mark has some internal issues within him Overall I m happy to read such wonderful story Next I like the way Loretta Hill describes the life for workers and locals on a isolated contraction site Readers of The Girl in the Yellow Vest will learn about the life of Fly in and Fly out workers on a mining site Also you learn about running a small motel in North Queensland Reading The Girl in the Yellow Vest you will learn about the role of engineers on a construction site I recommend this book The Girl in the Yellow Vest Engineer Emily counts cracks for a living Whilst her friends from university have all moved onto exciting projects she spends her days counting cracks in the concrete of a building in Perth It s mindnumbingly tedious but at least she has her relationship to fall back on They ve been together for years and Emily thinks he might be about to propose instead he tells her that he needs space and breaks up with her. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Emily s best friend Will suggests she apply to come and work on the project he s working on in far north Queensland Emily decides that she needs a fresh start in everything job surrounds they leave their beer cans and bottles lying around outside around the pool and their raucous partying and language means that she and her teenage sister need to give them a wide berth Charlotte s sister is young and impressionable and Charlotte definitely doesn t want her hanging out with the older crew of workers Charlotte has a lot on her plate she s struggling to keep herself afloat financially and so she desperately needs the FIFO cheques so she can t ask them to leave She s been a mother to her sister for years her crack counting a source of amusement to her friends If ever there was someone in need of a change it s Emily but she has remained tethered to her unexciting job because it keeps her in Perth with her boyfriend When he decides he isn t ready to settle down there s nothing keeping here there any. Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Watching Emily adjust to her new job and surroundings is a great part of this book as she comes into her own and gets the confidence to do her job and make decisions She s not used to really doing much other than counting cracks and although she s slow to find things to do once she finds her groove it s all about preparing for the arrival of the shiploader Her friendship with Will is so cute and although he s had feelings for her for a long time Emily has almost always been in a relationship and now that she s out of one she s also coming to terms with her growing feelings for her best friend It s a very cute kind of story There s lots of them finding the other attractive but thinking the other person isn t interested lots of misunderstandings about Emily s former boyfriend especially because Will is also great friends with him and he s telling Will things that don t really add up with what Will is also hearing from Emily etc However It s actually almost dwarfed by the story of Mark and Charlotte Mark is of a Bulldog type he s stand offish rude he s got a known reputation on site and most people stay the hell out of his way as much as they can Charlotte barges in with all the tact of a sledgehammer to talk about him keeping his FIFO workers a little in line with regards to the accommodation and sparks fly between them even as Mark is shoving her back out the door brushing her off I ll definitely keep reading them The Girl in the Yellow Vest Another great read from Loretta Hill Quirky down to earth real life believable characters and perfectly placed quips Loretta Hill is a master at capturing rural Australia at its best Set in picturesque Queensland on a construction site close to the Whitsundays Ms Hill takes us on an emotional journey through the lives of her characters with plenty to laugh at a little to cry over and a whole lot to love, Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite but she s about to discover that Mark might not be one for socialising or politeness but he s someone she can truly count on in a crisis: Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite 5 starsLoved the first two books in this series which I read a long time ago but still recall vividly The Girl in Steel Capped Boots and The Girl in the Hard Hat, Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite Loved The Girl in the Yellow Vest just as much if not a teeny weeny bit , Girl in yellow vest skin fortnite The Great Barrier Reef scenes were stunning and brought back some wonderful memories.I couldn t put it down The Girl in the Yellow Vest.
