Reviews

[Lorelei's Lit Lair]

Definitely one of the sweetest, heartwarming love stories out there! It's about learning to start a new chapter for 2 lonely hearts. It's different, filled with many important lessons and hope, that not only heals Libby, the heroines heart, but other characters in the story too, specially O'Connors.
Libby is a widow and a very protective mom of 2 young kids. She portrays her role with genuine emotion. I loved the chemistry between Libby and O'Connor. The author creates great anticipation to their kissing scenes which made me swoon. I loved Jean, the "crazy hippie" aunt, she'll be your favorite, too. There's small town charm and current issues are touched, such as bullying. I laughed and cried, and could really feel the emotions of sorrow, delight and I even wanted to cheer- Yes! - in certain scenes.
The story is written in 1st person, great voice. There's drama, a secret and many surprises that will keep you turning page after page till the end.
I received a free copy of this book for my honest opinion, and the only thing I regret is not having read it sooner! 5 happily ever after stars for this one!
