Let me start by saying that I loved this book. It’s not common for me to rate a romance 5 stars, but this one was so good. Tessa Bailey’s writing is fantastic. She combines the right amount of character development and spice!

Speaking of spice…whoa! The steamy scenes in this book were hot! When it comes to steam in books, I’m generally moderate spice, but I enjoyed the way that Bailey wrote them and felt that they worked with this story.

When I read that this book was inspired by Schitt’s Creek, I knew I needed to read it. Piper definitely reminded me of Alexis. I liked the story of a socialite forced to learn how to live in a small town with little money and really enjoyed Piper’s growth throughout the book.

Brendan was also written very well, and I liked how he grew in a completely different way than Piper. Bailey definitely knows how to develop her characters in realistic ways which I enjoy.

Although a bit predictable, I loved this story so much that I could overlook that. This was my first book by Tessa Bailey, but it certainly won’t be my last. I’m so excited to read Hook, Line, and Sinker when it comes out next year.
