When Sadie Goodwin is given the ultimatum of changing her genre of writing, she feels totally out of her element. She has only written westerns, but she must change course or return her $20,000 advance. How can she return what she has already spent? And the new genre? Romance. What does Sadie know about Romance? She's never been in love!
Finding refuge in a beach cottage, Sam is the next door neighbor. A quiet man who is running away from a very hurtful situation. He finds Sadie's enthusiasm and optimism a bit too much. When they find an engagement ring hidden in a donated book, they team up to find the owner.
But as time goes on, romance is in the air. Even though both Sam and Sadie fully deny it, because after all, her home is in New York City, and he is a local resident.
I totally loved this book. I loved Sadie's enthusiasm and her way of procrastinating about her writing deadline. And Sam was such a gentleman. A hero in my book. A clean enjoyable read. Denise Hunter is a master storyteller. Writing well rounded sound characters, she is able to covey her characters deep feelings and emotions. Great dialog and very engaging reading. I've read many of her other novels and she never disappoints. Publication is in March but it is definitely a must read.
I received a complimentary an e-copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
