Rustic Hearts by Amber Kelly

4.0

If you love small town romances with a lot of heart, this book is for you. Poplar Falls was a small town with a strong sense of community, family, and hard work. After the death of her grandmother, Sophie returns to her hometown twenty years later.⠀

The characters in this book felt like family. They took care of each other and took Sophie in like no time had passed. I loved following her journey of finally feeling like Poplar Falls was home again.⠀
⠀
Now let's talk about the romance. I loved Braxton and Sophie! Started off as enemies but then turned into something more. At first Braxton was rough around the edges. But eventually we saw his sweet and protective side when it came to Sophie. Some of my favorite scenes were watching the jealousy that overtook him when Sophie was with another guy. The epilogue was so perfect. ⠀
