It was all a bit too convenient! The book was also quite repetitive, with both main character's thoughts going round in circles quite a bit. However the issues with Dillion's brother were resolved way too easily and made me roll my eyes, it wasn't handled well at all, and Van's family issues were so obvious. It was nothing new or groundbreaking, but comforting because of that?! Likeable characters, a lovely lakeside town, family issues, friendships and romance made this an easy and pleasant read. Van spent his summers at his grandmother's home, and now has to sort out her house, which was left to him.īoth there temporarily, will they find love? With that being said, the angsty side of it did not do it for me, hence my rating but everything else was truly a breath of fresh air in which I look forward to seeing more of hopefully an upcoming series.ĪRC kindly provided by Montlake Romance, in exchange for an honest review.Ī cute, cheesy and predictable small town romance with some steamy scenes, which is what I was craving in my mini slump!ĭillion escaped her small town but after losing her job, boyfriend and apartment, decides to move home to help her family after an accident.
With the slow romance aside, we also get family connection and family rejection something that is truly appealing for those small town romance trope lovers.
When the off chance arises where Van and Dillion have to work together to fix a family death's wishes, things take a turn for another where their just simple encounter turns from being enemies, to friends.Īnd when a male and female friend are involved, alongside with attraction and lust there is no denying that there will be a physical connection involved. Especially when she encounters upon Van seeking refuge from family/business drama that spurt all in the moment. Living in a small town where everyone knows everything and coming back to this small kale community, is not something that Dillion was looking forward to. You are signing up for the story of two characters, with a deep past that connect in a very intense emotional level of convenience. You cannot dive into the normal rom com that comes with Helena's name. But when I say that this was a slow integration between both character Dillion and Van, it indeed was angsty. With high anticipation of falling in love with yet another brand new romance novel by Helena Hunting, my hopes were high and for it's rom com appeal when it comes down to her writing, and low for her emotional writing style. A slow, yet riveting romance that will surprise all Helena Hunting readers with it's tenderness and realness.
