Publisher Description
Can you find real love when you've always got your head in the clouds?
Maybell Parish has always been a dreamer and a hopeless romantic. But living in her own world has long been preferable to dealing with the disappointments of real life. So when Maybell inherits a charming house in the Smokies from her Great-Aunt Violet, she seizes the opportunity to make a fresh start.
Yet when she arrives, it seems her troubles have only just begun. Not only is the house falling apart around her, but she isn't the only inheritor: she has to share everything with Wesley Koehler, the groundskeeper who's as grouchy as he is gorgeous--and it turns out he has a very different vision for the property's future.
Convincing the taciturn Wesley to stop avoiding her and compromise is a task more formidable than the other dying wishes Great-Aunt Violet left behind. But when Maybell uncovers something unexpectedly sweet beneath Wesley's scowls, and as the two slowly begin to let their guard down, they might learn that sometimes the smallest steps outside one's comfort zone can lead to the greatest rewards.
Customer Reviews
Epitome of Romance!
I love that this book shows love beyond looks. It shows that what you consider a flaw can be seen as beautiful to anyone. Not to mention Sarah Hogle’s writing is beautiful! This is my first book by her and 1/2 though all I could do was thank the literature gods I came across a book from someone who is phenomenal with her words. Bravo! Keep being you, I love it here
Twice Shy
I did not like this book, the idea of it was fantastic but the execution was a let down.
Really good but too short and fast
At that end, I really wanted more. Maybe more development with the relationship, and more obstacles for the story - either between the couple, or maybe with Maybell’s mom popping up and wreaking havoc.
