This Time Around is a collection of short novellas.
A Summer Detour by Denise Hunter - this novella was a quick and cute read with a second chance romance. Both Allie and Luke were likable characters, but I didn’t fully buy their relationship. To me, Allie was a bit too immature for Luke and their past relationship felt like it was based on physical attraction more than anything else.
Pining for You by Melissa Ferguson is another second chance romance. I really wanted to like this story, but I struggled with both Theo and Skye. Theo was portrayed as very wimpy and the way Skye treated him went past the point of humor into humiliation territory.
He Loves me; He Loves Me Not by Kathleen Fuller was probably my favorite of this group of novellas. The romance was sweet, with a bit of a love triangle. I did struggle with Sophie. She could be kind of mean for no reason.
All in all, these novellas are quick, sweet, and clean reads.
*I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own. I would categorize these as clean reads (1) as there was no faith element even though it is published by Thomas Nelson.
In A Summer Detour by Denise Hunter, you’ll meet free-spirited Allie Adams, who undertakes a road trip to deliver her grandparents’ newly restored ’57 Chevy in time for their fiftieth anniversary party . . . along with Luke Fletcher, the former boy-next-door who callously crushed her heart.
Pining for You by Melissa Ferguson invites you to a cozy Virginia mountain town where Christmas tree farm owner Theo Watkins III has the opportunity to drop everything for one weekend to play farmer and potentially win back the heart of his childhood best friend, Skye Fuller. Only problem? He’s the kind of man who drives a Tesla, not a tractor.
Last but not least, He Loves Me; He Loves Me Not by Kathleen Fuller will transport you to a small town in Arkansas where thirty-five-year-old Sophie Morgan has spent years making her flower shop a success. But when this workaholic decides she’s ready to make time for dating again, she finds herself with two handsome men vying for her attention.
Whether your perfect romance involves rows and rows of Fraser firs and white pines glinting in the moonlight, childhood love that never ends, or a second chance at a happily ever after, you’re sure to find a story within this collection to warm your heart any day of the year.
I have this on my wish list. Blessings
ReplyDeleteI feel so blessed again in my marriage after PRIEST OSAS brought back my husband that separated with me for good 3 months. ANNY ROBERT by name from California. Even though I have mouths all over my body, it won't be enough to thank PRIEST OSAS for his help in my life. My husband separated with me for 3 months and has been in pain and agony without him. So, I searched for help everywhere but nothing worked out not until I meant PRIEST OSAS who I contacted online. I explained my situation to him and he promised that my husband will get back to me within 24 to 48 hours so that my heart still beats for him. I believed in him and he prepared a spell for me and my husband called me exactly when PRIEST OSAS said. He pleaded and said he needs me back and now we are living happily again for the past 9 months. Everyone out there reading my article that needs help should contact him...
