NOWHERE, CAROLINA by Tamara Leigh, reviewed by Kim


I am loving this series! I love Tamara Leigh’s stories because of her writing style and her great characters! They are never cookie cutter, they are flawed and so relatable. I also love how Ms. Leigh never does the expected! I was sure I knew how two things would play out in this story, but happily, I was wrong on both accounts.
After reading Leaving Carolina, I was really looking forward to Maggie’s story. She is a single mom with a past she is doing her best to overcome. When Reece, her former high school sweetheart, comes back to town, will he believe she has changed? I loved both Reece and Maggie and I loved how their relationship developed. It wasn’t quick or easy. Devyn, Maggie’s daughter, ended up being a favorite character. She stole the page whenever she was on it and I loved her unique personality.

I’m so glad there is another story in this series. I can’t wait to read Restless in Carolina next!
*I purchased this book. The faith element is light/medium.

BackCover Blurb:
THEY SAY OLD FLAMES DIE HARD. THEY DON’T KNOW THE HALF OF IT.

Maggie Pickwick is a lifetime away from her days as head cheerleader and the mistakes she made in high school. Twelve years later, this single mom has traded pompoms for an auctioneer’s gavel, popularity for peace and quiet, and strives to be a good example for her daughter, Devyn. She’s keeping it together just fine, too—until an old flame moves back to her little North Carolina town.

Renowned artist Reece Thorpe wants nothing to do with Maggie—not after what she did in high school—but he might also be Devyn’s father. Driven by her own pride and fear for her daughter’s happiness, Maggie finds herself on a slippery slope of white lies as she attempts to convince Reece that she’s changed. But the truth has a way of making itself known, and now Maggie’s past and present mistakes could ruin her chance at love.
