Sweet Sunshine by Jessica Prince
5.0
My rating: 5
This is why I sign up to promote and read/review books! This was my very first Jessica Prince book and I'm so glad that Southern Belle Book Blog introduced me to her! Holy crapola you guys, this book was amazing, and sweet, and just plain perfection!
I don't even know where to begin - Derrick is just pure man meat amazingness #swoon. He's just the kind of guy I think we all want and need in our lives... he's stubborn, protective, and a great father figure. I really enjoyed seeing this romance blossom between him and Chloe. Now, I'd not read the story called Wildflower where you apparently first meet these two lovebirds... but I don't feel like I was missing anything in their story (although I plan to go back and read it now). Its the perfect little small town romance - easily pictured as a cute Hallmark movie! (:
While the romance seemed kind of quick in a way, it worked well for their relationship and with his being a father and having an ex-wife. There is a certain maturity that comes in that situation, that when you date someone, you have to be serious kind of quick and matter of fact... you can't just play around. (Although that seemed to be his MO prior to Chloe.. it was nice to see him settle back and develop some feelings for her). They remind me a little of my husband and I... once we got going it got steamy real quick and was a deep relationship. Not just that surface stuff you see in most books. I felt there connection, and it's strong. I really enjoyed the pacing of the story, though I've seen other reviews who thought it went too quick.
This book made me laugh out loud, it made me tear up and it made me fall in love with these characters! I can't wait to read more!! Jessica Prince has just been added to my list of authors to insta-buy from! Amazing!
