Darcy Vance was a lawyer turned B&B; owner or at least that was the plan. The problems started when the renovations turned into more and more money, continued when she couldn’t get an audience with the historical society and then when it couldn’t get any worse the developer in town had to stick his hand into the mix as well. What else could go wrong? Oh wait sometimes you don’t want to know.Trenton James Mauldin thought he had it all planned out, he was a professional golfer, tons of money and girls whenever he wanted. Then his shoulder happened before you know it he couldn’t golf any more. So he went to “work” for his dad. Except he didn’t like him and his dad wouldn’t listen to him.When Trent and Darcy meet everything was against them, except biology, that attraction that wouldn’t end. However every time something would start something would happen and then nothing would happen. As Darcy learns how to live in a small town and Trent figures out that you can come home again somehow the two will find a way to make it work, won’t they?Ms. Boykin’s novella is a work of art. Told primarily from Darcy’s point of view it is a story that makes you love her and feel the pain and the rejection of Trent and then when he finally gets it her insecurity is palpable. This is one of the few novellas where I’ve honestly gotten so far into the characters and the story that I was truly upset that she kept it so short, but for a quick romance it’s a great read and I look forward to more of Magnolia Bay and Ms. Boykin’s work.
