LJ Express Reviews : LJ Express Reviews Lyndsay De Luca, a small-town math teacher, is anticipating the release of her first novel. No one knows she has been writing stories during her free time, let alone published a book. As the publication date gets closer, Lyndsay becomes concerned that Will Sweet, the inspiration for the book's love interest, will realize the similarities between himself and the male lead. Will is a local cowboy content with his life of farming and steady stream of nonserious relationships. How could he really commit to someone after the death of his first love? Brittany died too young, and Will can't seem to have a life when she lost her chance at one. However, he doesn't mind casual dates. When Lyndsay asks him out, he jumps at the chance to take their friendship to the next level. Soon, a good time starts to become more. Can Will allow himself to accept love? Verdict Cane's (Sleigh Bells in Valentine Valley) character development is well done and hooks the reader into all the folks in Valentine Valley. Romance readers will love the town, the people, and the story of Lyndsay and Will.âJessica Strefling, Pepperdine Sch. of Law Lib., Malibu, CA (c) Copyright 2015.
