REVIEW
✨✨✨✨✨
What if the life you’ve built isn’t the one you truly want?
Oh isn't that the million dollar question ⁉️
Having moved across the world at 40, I do know how leaving the life you've known, to start again somewhere new feels like (luckily my soulmate moved with me)
I quickly fell into this storyline, as Lucy moved across states to the sleepy town of Green River. She was a character I could emphasize with.
Hudson... Oh Their first meeting was a really good scene, and I did chuckle as Lucy put him in his place.
Hudson was a very likable Book boyfriend, hes handsome but he wasn't arrogant, he's over the lifestyle that the music industry has brought him, and when Lucy stepped into the picture, he knew she was 'The One'.
I liked how the romance was paced, and the funny moments were just right for this to be and easy small-town romance Read.
Infact I have just started an old Nora Roberts book that coincidentally has a female character that Also leaves her unfulfilled life to find herself... And this book has the same easy storytelling that transports the reader into another life and experience... Which is why I read.
I will definitely be looking forward to the next book in this series.
