A Place Like You by Claudia Burgoa
3.0

This one had a lot of potential for me, some of my favorite tropes including single parent,  age gap and small town but the romance itself was a bit lacking for me. It moved from Wren being very skeptical of Drake to her quickly doing a huge shift and all of a sudden they were basically in love. A bit rushed for me, it didn’t feel like there was enough time and development for them to really be all in yet. It definitely wasn’t all bad, I enjoyed the town, Wren’s adorable son and the mystery surrounding Drake’s families past. I just wish he felt more of a romantic connection between Wren and Drake.
