Ratings and reviews

Meg awaking to gunshots, and yelling in the early hours, finding her husband ex partner was next door watching TV, a writer of crime thrillers. Meg was trying for her Master Degree lacking confidence in her self to get. Her thesis on children with disabilities. having two weeks to write it, he offered to brainstorm with her. With a pizza and white boards at her school, and sharing her ideas. To a celebration, and house hunting in Pleasant Shores A heartwarming story, of finding someone to share things with. Delighted to read and enjoyed this good flowing plot. Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

This book kept me turning the pages. Finn and Meg were attracted to each other, but Finn had a secret he couldn’t share about Meg’s late husband, and Meg was not confident enough to think that Finn would be attracted to her. They would have to work past those obstacles. I loved the way that Finn was able to encourage Meg in her final weeks of writing her master’s thesis. I really liked that his story was about an “older” couple (not in their twenties).This was a sweet story and I would recommend it. I received a digital copy of this book from the author and was not required to write a positive review.
