Alaskan Dreams by Beth Carpenter
5.0
I have loved each book so far in the Northern Lights series by Beth Carpenter, but Alaskan Dreams is hands down my favorite. Funny, charming, sweet, and romantic, it grabs you from the first sentence and doesn’t let you go until the last word. I know this because when I started reading it I was super tired and only intended on reading the first couple of chapters… but I ended up reading the whole thing in one sitting because it was so entertaining.
The goats are hilarious! Their adorable antics had me laughing out loud on several occasions, but I also found them to be sweetly endearing. Mainly Spritz who definitely decided Patrick was her human – and who knew goats did such a thing? So cute.
Also the perfect combination of hilarious & sweetly endearing – Bonnie and her best friends. Don’t let these senior citizen ladies hear you call them elderly; they’re full of life and activity, with big hearts and well-meaning antics. I wanted to hug them all at one point or another during the book, and they kept a smile on my face throughout.
And then Lauren & Patrick… great banter, sweet friendship, and swoony romance. It doesn’t get much better than that. Their interactions were well-written and engaging, and their personalities shine through perfectly. Lauren was my personal favorite between the two – there are a lot of layers to her backstory & she’s just such a genuine character.
Bottom Line: Alaskan Dreams by Beth Carpenter is an absolutely delightful read from start to finish. Charming & amusing characters (including the mischievous goats!) – plus a treasure hunt! – keep you fully engaged in the story, and the sweet romance will have you swooning more than once. Prepare to read this book with a permanent grin on your face, and a few chuckles too. Fabulous addition to this series!
