My thoughts:
I am a bit embarrassed to admit this but I didn't realize this was the third book in the Holiday Brides series by Ms. Hatfield when I started reading, Easter Bride. I only mention this because this book is so good that I am sorry I missed reading the first two but I will be reading them as soon as possible.
I absolutely adored Piper Peterson from the start and could imagine being friends with her. She loves animals so much that she has rescued quite a few of them. she loves living in a small town and the girl has a flair for decorating that made me want to visit the feed store she manages. I loved the way the author described the antiques she used in some of her displays so that I could visualize them. I love her kindness not only for animals but for her aging grandfather as well.
Now there has to be a hero for the heroine, right? Of course and boy did the author create the perfect one in Colton Ford! . They first meeting is a bit off putting to him but I sure had a good laugh and that's when I realized how much I liked her. I'll just say there is a pig pen, mud and a goat involved making Piper not nearly as beautiful as Colton had been led to believe.
The community of Holiday is filled with fun, lovable and quirky characters who happen to have each others backs and are not opposed to offering sage advice to those they think need it. Family, friends and neighbors are always important in a storyline and the author highlights and nurtures these relationships in the quick and fun read. If anyone is looking for a fast weekend read, I highly recommend this one.
I received an e-copy from the author and was under no obligations to write a review. All opinions are my own.
