New York City self-help editor Olivia Marks faces her toughest assignment yet: parenthood. When her sister dies in a car accident, the career-oriented Olivia suddenly becomes the guardian to her four-week-old niece, Annabelle. She also becomes a challenge for Annabelle’s uncle, Brad Rushford, an old flame whose gorgeous green eyes bring Olivia’s fevered memories rushing back.
As the two circle each other in their small hometown of Mirror Lake, Olivia finds that Brad is as sexy and charming as ever—and now he’s the darling of the town as he expands his successful lakefront restaurant. Is his flirting designed to get serious, or to lower Olivia’s defenses to give up guardianship? When she finds out about the turreted, brick Victorian house Brad tours with a realtor and an attractive, no-strings-attached reporter—the same place where he and Olivia shared an unforgettable night years ago—Olivia wonders if he’s looking for a future with her, or planning to start a new life with someone else.
In the first heartwarming Mirror Lake story, steamy trysts and surprising twists lead two people to a future neither one expected.
This Thing Called Love, is about Olivia, a strong, independent woman who has been immersed in her work for the past 10 years. She returns to her hometown after her sister's sudden death because she was shockingly named as her newborn niece's guardian. Enter Brad, Olivia's first and one true love, and a super hot, successful businessman. I love second chance romances and add a cute small town filled with interesting characters -- I cannot resist! I thought this was an adorable rom-com. I could actually see it as one of those movies. It was super sweet, light and moved along a good pace. No complaints from me. I am looking forward to getting to becoming better acquainted with the residents of Mirror Lake.
