Genre: Adult Romance
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
This story has every thing I love about a small town romance. Our girl is new in town, having just opened up her quaint and cute bookshop. Our guy is the steady handyman and 5th grade teacher who is there for everyone but himself.
And of course the town is quaint and cute too, filled with whimsically named stores and all sorts of quirky characters.
It was sweet and fun for the most part. For some reason I was expecting a "closed door" or "fade to black" spice level, but um... it was not. And that seems to always take me out of the story itself. I don't know how else to explain it, but yeah, I've come to terms with the fact that I enjoy the lower spice levels in my romance. All the swoon though, give THAT to me!
This did have some level of swoon, thankfully. Which is why I quite enjoyed it. The stuff keeping the characters apart did make me a little crazy though. I got mad at both of them for being stupid. But I guess that's how it goes with these stories sometimes!
In the end, I totally enjoyed it and am curious about the other books in the series. I'm sure we'll be getting the stories of the other brothers... maybe? Or at least other characters in the town.
Bottom line: if you love bookish, slow burn, small town romances with a pretty high spice level, this one is for you!
I got the ARC from the author and it will be released on June 2!
