I ate this book up. I wish the second book was out already so I could dive right in!! I loved Lila’s fierce independence, but also loved how intensely she cares for those she’s loves. In the same vein for Owen, I loved how fiercely he loves, but that he also doesn’t smother. I loved them together and I can’t wait to see them in the next books. I also loved seeing the Gangons make appearances.

Caught In The Axe- Daphne Elliot

Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Spice 🌶️🌶️.5

We are back in Lovewell! Oh how I’ve missed this crazy town. If the Gagnons were season 1, this was a fantastic Season 2 premier featuring the Heberts. We’ve got a brand new mystery unfolding and I can’t wait for all these big broody lumberjacks to be knocked on their asses by love.

First up we’ve got CFO Owen, whom you should recognize if you read Daphne’s MomCom as Enzo’s bff and business partner. He left Lovewell at 18 for the big city and hasn’t looked back since. He’s successful in Boston and is only coming back to help his brothers sell the family business that their father ran into the ground with his illegal shenanigans. Recent graduate, Lila, is back in town working as many odd jobs as possible to save up money before she moved to New York with her best friends and starts grad school in the Fall. When Owen needs an assistant to help him sort out all the mishandled files from the business, in comes Lila. He is swept away by not only her beauty, but her brains as well. After she’d been a trophy girlfriend for Owens hotshot hockey brother for 8 years, she’s determined to make a life for herself, but what happens when she gets swept up in the older Heberts charm?

I loved seeing the cameos from the Gagnons as well as all the moms from the MomComs making an appearance. This book seriously moved me in so many ways. There was one part that I was like “Holy crap. I’ve literally never felt so seen before in my life.”
