Was kinda bored, then had to prioritise other things, and frankly couldn’t bring myself to pick it back up also THE FUCK YOU MEAN he can’t live her because of his dead wife?????
I really liked this book. It had more depth than some of the other romance books I’ve read. There really was a story line and it wasn’t just a cheesy romance. I really like Lucy Scores books because they are longer than normal romance books and I think that gives enough room to make the story make sense instead of just having one conflict and then they make up and the story ends.
This book was interesting to me because there was a good portion of it that Luke was not in. While he was deployed for six months. I liked this section of the book because a lot of times an author will just do a time jump. But I liked Harpers character development in that part of the book. It was also nice to see her build a relationship with other people in the town. Instead of just saying she was “loved” in the town and showing how much she wanted to stay, she actually showed those parts.
I did feel like the end was a little rushed. We learned about Harper’s old foster dad basically in the last couple chapters. Then it only took like one chapter to close that conflict up and it never became a big issue. Idk how I feel about that part. I see how it’s necessary because there needs to be a part where Luke is home and is able to be there for Harper when she needs him. Because the last time he was deployed. But I just think it could have been introduced a couple chapters before.
When Luke kicked Harper out that was really brutal. I think when you make the main character do something like that it makes it hard for the reader to like him again. I kind of feel like we needed to see him apologize more for what he did or at least right after it happened try to make it right. I did kind of love the drama of him kicking her out but I didn’t really feel like it’s something his character would have done.
Overall I did enjoy reading this book and I liked the supporting characters as well, they were funny.

Luke Garrison, a local hero and National Guard member prepared for another deployment, has no desire for companionship to disrupt his solitude. However, when the captivating Harper enters his life, he sees her as the ideal distraction: a fabricated girlfriend to appease his family until he leaves.
Harper, in pursuit of a fresh start once more, finds herself drawn to Luke and the prospect of settling down in his quaint town.
Despite his reservations, Luke finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Harper. However, he is burdened by a dark past he cannot share, just as Harper harbors secrets of her own.
Their arrangement is meant to be temporary, a facade for the outside world. But as their connection deepens, the line between pretend and reality begins to blur.
Such a great read and pulled me in from the start. I love how Harper was so understand of Luke's past and supported him as best she could. I'm glad Luke finally came to his senses!!
