Kitty's Book Spot!

This is book #2, in the Hopeless Romantics series.   This book can be read as a standalone novel.  For reader enjoyment, and understanding of this amazing series, I recommend reading these in the order intended. Charlotte comes back to Hope Lake after some serious disappointments.  She figures spending the summer with her Dad and Gigi, that she will have a brighter future.  Then she gets back with most of her childhood friends and finds out that all is not what she thought. While hot men abound in this small but very active community, she has the hearts of two men somehow intertwined with her unknown future.  On one hand, she has Max - who is actively pursuing her.  Then there is the sweet Henry, whom she is trying hard to remember from her days of living here before. This story was just bold and lovely.  I loved the characters.  I love the interaction.  I also have come to love the little community in the small town.  Whil...

Emmanuelle AKA "Emma" is just offended when her father tells her he wants her to help her co-worker campaign for his job as mayor.  Not only is he a playboy, lazy, and childish but she has no extra time in her life already.  Where does she fit this extra work in? Cooper already has a plan.  He is loved by most everyone in town already, and he has a good work ethic when motivated.  Why can't Emma see he is still the same man? This story reminded me that when men and women fight - and they do - it can be war.  The characters were interesting, and actually have a lot of depth.  The pacing in the story could have been a little faster, but we may have lost some of the charm.  Overall I think a good stepping stone for this  new series  and I cannot wait to read the next installment!  I give this a 3/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review, by Netgalley and its publishers.
