Sugar Pine Trail by RaeAnne Thayne

Image
Sugar Pine Trail is my first encounter with the works of author RaeAnne Thayne. What I found was an incredibly sweet kind of read filled with heart achingly soul-warming characters. I’m also pleased with the fact that these characters are a bit older and more focused on the reality of life and the conditions of it. Librarian, Julia Winston, is beautifully written as a woman with a sense of responsibility, yet an underlying desire to break out of the box she has put herself in. She is a warm and delicate lady with a feisty side that makes her so likable. Julia’s new upstairs renter, Jamie Caine, really doesn’t know what to think of the antique covered apartment he’ll be living in for the next few months. He does find the plain Jane landlord a bit fascinating though— Okay, I know what you’re thinking— the plain Jane girl becomes beautiful after guy sees what she looks like on the inside or that under all those clothes she is a rocking sex bomb and now he’s ensnared. NO. There are so ...

The Chesapeake Bride by Mariah Stewart ~Review~

Fans of a small town romance will love this sweet read. Filled with fun encounters with wildly adorable town folk and family, The Chesapeake Bride is a delightful way to spend an afternoon by the bay. This couple has immensely great chemistry. Cassidy and Owen circle one another for quite a bit of time before making a true love connection. It’s a ride filled with doubts, longing, and a few upsets straight out of left field. The townspeople that make up Cannonball Island are excellent sub characters as well. The vibrancy of the town, businesses, and relationships makes this reader want to book a trip to Maryland. Tanja Get it on Amazon From the cover… Architect Cassidy Logan has sworn off good-looking adventurers. Newly divorced, she’s focused on building ecologically friendly, historically accurate homes on the Chesapeake Bay for her father’s construction company.
