I've missed having my blogging schedule from when I first started blogging. But things just haven't really worked out for me to start blogging regularly, however, I'm giving it my best. And that means that I am trying to take the time to finally repost my reviews from my original blog. So, yes, these reviews are older. Yes, they aren't as well written as I might write now, but you have to start somewhere, right? So, I'll be reposting my old reviews and I am so excited about it.
About
In a small town in Idaho’s idyllic wine country where the past looms large, can two people realize their individual dreams for the future … together?
Abandoned once too often, Brooklyn Myers never intended to return to Thunder Creek, Idaho. Her hometown holds too many memories of heartache and rejection. But when her estranged husband Chad Hallston dies and leaves his family home and acreage to her and their ten-year-old daughter Alycia, it's an opportunity to change their lives for the better—a chance Brooklyn can't pass up, for Alycia's sake if not her own.
Derek Johnson, Chad's best friend since boyhood, isn't keen on the return of Brooklyn Myers to Thunder Creek. He still blames her for leading his friend astray. And now she has ruined his chance to buy the neighboring ten acres which would have allowed him to expand his organic farm. To add insult to injury, Chad's dying request was that Derek become the father to Alycia that Chad never was. How can he keep that promise without also spending time with the girl’s mother?
Brought together by unexpected circumstances, Derek and Brooklyn must both confront challenges to their dreams and expectations. He must overcome long held misconceptions about Brooklyn while she must learn to trust someone other than herself. And if they can do it, they just might discover that God has something better in mind than either of them ever imagined.
My Thoughts
I knew I would have to read this once I saw the cover, like, it's so beautiful, has a small town vibe, a sweet romance touch, and a dash of hope, don't you think?
The blurb made me slightly wary, it's not exactly encouraging to see that the main lady, Brooklyn is a single mom, and the lead guy, Derek is not a fan of Brooklyn, (a trope I somewhat dislike.). So with fifty/fifty good/bad expectations I started You'll Think Of Me.Soon I was so deep in the story I only stopped once there wasn't enough light coming through my window in the van, and I had to stop reading.
Have you read any of Robin Lee Hatcher's books?
