As regular readers of my blog, you know I love this author’s writing! She is an auto-buy for me when she has new books being released. When this book was released, I immediately bought it!
Welcome to Fool’s Gold! The way the author set up the town was amazing. I instantly felt like I was part of the town. The characters were enjoyable and the writing was great! Charity is an independent woman who gets a new job as city planner in a town that is lacking men. She is introduced to Josh, who is a retired world-class cyclist trying to lay low in his hometown.
Yes, it’s the typical girl meets boy, girl falls for boy, they fall madly in love kind of story, but there is so much more that is involved in the story that you forget about the basic principles of the romance genre. It has suspense in the form of a thief, side characters that will keep you laughing and curious to read their stories in future books, and romance that will leave your heart fluttering.
I so enjoyed visiting Fool’s Gold and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. If Fool’s Gold were a real town, I would be moving there in a heartbeat!
MY RATING:
Outstanding Book That Will Stay On My Bookshelf
For Rereading!
