PAULA'S REVIEW:
Zany, mad-cap, hilarious fun! From the first line, I was chuckling or laughing out loud on every page.
McKenna and Nate did not have a meet cute! Not when Nate got in the way of McKenna setting up a proposal for her baby sister and Nate was mistaken for a dead body on a bench!
Riotously funny, the unexpected always happened, from lost luggage with an expensive ring trapped inside to a fundraiser with all the Harrys. Let’s not forget the conversations with the goats and chickens.
With a slowly progressing romance and some meddling from the geriatric crowd, humor was always on the menu. There was a slight faith element to remind us that God loves the individual as well as exhortation to forgive and reconcile. I think this could have been a little stronger throughout.
Ms Kinzer is decidedly the royalty of rom-com. I enjoy this author and will read more books by her.
*A complimentary copy of the book was provided by Tyndale through NetGalley. I was not required to post a favorable review. All opinions are mine alone.* 5 stars and a slight faith thread
BackCover Blurb:
This is absolutely not how they pictured their summer going.
McKenna
Boston is feeling stuck. She's spent years growing her photography
skills only for her career to hit a wall. She's ready to move on, and
she will, just as soon as she helps her sister's boyfriend stage the
perfect proposal. But when her best laid plans go awry and a handsome
stranger accidentally ends up with the heirloom ring, McKenna hops on a
flight to retrieve it. Piece of cake, right?
Nate Lambert was
hoping to enjoy a relaxing summer before starting his new job as a
literature professor, but he arrives in Tennessee to discover his mom's
bed and breakfast is struggling and there's a long list of repairs to be
tackled. The last thing he needs is a gorgeous, determined photographer
searching for a ring he doesn't have since the airline lost his luggage
somewhere on his route from Nebraska.
With the ring nowhere to
be found, all McKenna can do is wait and use the time to build her
portfolio and plan her next career move. But she also can't help getting
swept up in Nate's bed and breakfast renovations and in planning a
community concert with the townsfolk. As both await news of Nate's
suitcase, it begins to seem their serendipitous meeting, and the
proposal gone wrong, could actually be everything going right . . . and
that this may be their chance at a love neither could have pictured.
