Goodreads: HER LOVE HAS COME ALONG . . .
Amy Michaels loves her new life in Lucky Harbor. A waitress in the local diner, she’s looking forward to her first weekend hike through the mountains. But when a wrong turn takes her off the trail, she finds herself up close and personal with forest ranger Matt Bowers. And even though she’s tempted to kiss that sexy smile right off his face, she won’t make the mistake of getting involved with the town heartthrob.
A former cop whose life went south, Matt doesn’t let anyone get too close. But something about the feisty beauty caught his eye the moment he first saw her in the diner. After a hot night under a starry sky, Matt can’t deny their attraction-or the fact that for the first time in a long time, he feels the stirrings of something more. Now it’s up to Matt to help Amy see that, no matter what is in their past, together they can build a future in Lucky Harbor.
Ope’s Opinion: This was a very predictable story, but isn’t that what you want when you read Jill Shalvis? She writes good romance.
I could use a little less detailed on the sex scenes and a little less foul language – which I know is coming from Jill. I just usually like the story enough to read through the parts I don’t really care for.
This story was not my favorite Jill Shalvis book. If you like her as an author, you may like this one better then I did. I am still planning on reading Forever and a Day next. I hope I like it a little better then this one.
Rating: Three Chairs – I like the book enough to suggest it to a friend or two.
