Imagine moving cross country, freshly divorced, and having an AMAZING one night stand with a guy 11 years your junior, only to run into him again after a date with another man 11 years your senior and finding out he is his son 🤯 I don’t know about you, but I would be GAGGED!

This was such a cute small town romance, highlighting new beginnings and learning to let love in again. I really liked that the story begins after the FMC has already rediscovered herself and mourned the loss of her marriage, instead of “wasting” storyline time on that and leaving more time for the featured relationship to blossom.

I wouldn’t say it’s the most memorable book I’ve read this year, but it was sweet and fun nonetheless. It had the spice of a Lauren Asher novel, with the taboo trope of Penelope Douglas.
