Review: When actress Blake Calloway's father passes away, she discovers an old chest in the attic with letters from her mother. A mother who she thought didn't want her, but truly did. Blake returns to her small hometown in Maine to a mother who welcomes her back with open arms and a big family that is spectacular. She also meets the beautiful Alexis, a single mother and employee in her mother's bar. Sparks fly, but they each have their own baggage and come from different worlds. Can they somehow push past their traumas and have their happily ever after?
This was a fun and sweet contemporary lesbian romance. There was nothing mysterious or life-threatening in the plot, so you could count it as lower stakes. There is a relationship at stake, though! Blake is a smart and confident actress who isn't sure how to fit in with the family she was taken from years ago. She struggles to find her place in the world and really wants it to be with Alexis. Yet Alexis has her own hurt to deal with, and she isn't going to let just anyone into her life. There are sparks, and the romance is slow burn, but that works perfectly for how they unravel their pasts. I adore the overprotective Sophia! Even though the plot was predictable and we knew we'd get our happily ever after, I'm happy to see there are more stories in this series, because the characters are fantastic.
