4.0

If you’re looking for an out of the box romance, this is a great place to start! 

You know the Hallmark tropes of city slicker going to small town USA, falling in love, and dumping their Type A Exec girlfriend for the home town gal? Nora is the girl that gets dumped. Not once, not twice, but FOUR times! This is her story. 

Pros: 
Deep characters
Delves into difficult topics
Not your typical meet-cute RomCom
Highlights that different doesn’t mean wrong or unneeded. 

Cons:
A bit too many F*bombs (53)

Really that was my biggest turn off! Sometimes they were warranted or could be looked over, but overall felt excessive. 

Also be aware, that it IS open door romance. The scenes weren’t excessive or overdone and fit the story well.
