The Honeymoon Trap by Christina Hovland
4.0
It's a sweet but quite emotional read. I loved it, both characters are all great with interesting back stories. I enjoyed reading their story.
Lucy is happy to start at a new place where no would know her. She is running from her past insecurities and trying to build a new life for herself. Also, it's great to get away from her parents who are not easy people to deal with. What she didn't count on was meeting her teenage crush, William. What more, he is not only her new neighbour, but also a colleague. Life just got a little bit more messy for her, good thing is that William doesn't seem to remember her and she hopes that it stays that way.
William is back in his hometown. He is ready to take over the family business. He feels that he can make his mother proud, at last.However, the only downside is dealing with his controlling father. But he is no longer a child and he is not ready to forgive his father just yet. One bright thing in his life right now is Lucy. She is adorable and he can't help but feel attractive to her. For some reason she seems to discourage his attentions but he can feel that deep down she wants him just as much as he wants her. Will they be able to build a life together, in this small time where secrets cannot be kept hidden for long?
It's well-written, sweet, and quite romantic story. I enjoyed all the embarrassing moments, the funny moments, and the romantic ones as well. There is some emotional trauma involved as well, but story is written in a lighthearted manner so anyone can enjoy it.
P.S. I received a complimentary copy of this book via NetGalley.
