Genre: Adult, Romance
Source: I received a copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own
Romance novels are not usually my go to genre. I have certain
requirements. I don’t want a mushy, gushy romance. There has to be other conflicts that must be
solved for me to truly enjoy it. This is my first book by this author and will
not be my last. As a teacher of teens, I
have been reading middle grade and young adult books for so long that I had put
a lot of adult books on the back burner.
Amy is a young woman who moved from California to take
another job, her dream job in New York. She left behind a cheating boyfriend
and a job where her boss was out to get her. On a vacation to the Hamptons with
her best friend from California and her
new best friend from New York, she meets Richie, a gorgeous looking man. He
seems to have fallen head over heals in love with her. She meets his family at
Thanksgiving and loves them. Then things
begin to fall apart. Her former boss is back in her life in New York. They have
the same position. She is getting ready to spend Christmas with her boyfriend
and his family. It seems that things are going downhill fast.
Things aren’t always what they seem to be. There are many things we learn as we read the
book that adds quite a bit of tension to this story. That is what made me
really enjoy this book. I will stop at
this point because I don’t want to give anything away. I will say, if you love
a feel good romance or you are like me, sitting on the fence when it comes to
romance novels, then you most definitely need to read this one.
