She hits all of the hot spots we look for in a complex multi-dimensional read. McKinlay beautifully creates a story that adds so many different layers – fun, sexy, quirky, heartful, emotional. Not only do we get the personal aspect between the characters but we also get the work-life aspect too. The characters were a delight and I loved the balance that she created with Nick and Annabelle. The author developed a fabulous plot that was fun to read and so realistic. And soon she wonders if she and Nick might help each other find the courage to embrace life, happiness, and true love. Nick suffered from a stroke a year ago, and while there’s no physical reason for him not to recover, he is struggling to overcome the paralyzing fear that has kept him a prisoner in his own home.ĭespite her promise to herself not to get involved, Annabelle finds herself irresistibly drawn to Nick. Annabelle is shocked when she finally meets Nick and discovers that he’s her age and uses a wheelchair.
Based on the cranky, handwritten notes Nick Daire leaves her, she assumes he is an old, rich curmudgeon. When she arrives in the Valley of the Sun, Annabelle is instantly intrigued by her anonymous landlord. When she’s offered her dream job as creative director at a cutting-edge graphic design studio in Phoenix, she jumps at the opportunity to start over. She’s not even thirty years old, twice-divorced, and has just dodged a marriage proposal… from her ex-husband. Stuck in a dreary Boston winter, Annabelle Martin would like nothing more than to run away from her current life. This is the first time I have read a book by this author and I was impressed with her story! Here are my thoughts on this upcoming release. I was looking for a fresh change of pace after reading a huge book and this fulfilled me in every way! I grabbed a great chick-lit read this week for review.
