After reading the first book ONCE UPON A SUMMERTIME in the Follow Your Heart companion series I was a very unsure if I wanted to continue on, but I decided to give this series one more chance.
I am so glad I decided to give it another go though as this one not only went at a slower pace in the romance department. It also didn't appear to shame anyone either.
Nicole is a high school art teacher and an artist in her free time who has gotten into a pattern where she doesn't seem to be doing much with her life besides just making it by. Her mom ends up getting her a summer job running an art gallery for a family friend, in hopes that it will not only lift Nicole's mood but help her be excited about art again.
While Nicole is unsure about taking the job, she is also excited/nervous about the possibilities and she hopes it will be good for her art as well.
Once Nicole is running the art gallery and dealing with a certain employee who is rather rude but has close ties to the family, she starts wondering if this was the right choice. She does love getting to hang out with her old best friend and seeing what he does now and even helps him out with a few things.
Overall this was a really nice story that not only dealt with art, and architecture, but I also felt like we really got to know the characters. We saw how their friendships had started and how that had all changed over the years. The romance was slow and gradual for a change and nothing felt forced.
While I don't see myself reading the second book in this trilogy, I am glad I gave it another chance to read this one as it was a fun read.
