Greg and Elyse meet while he is working with her father. It isn't love at first sight but given time it goes from indifference to what they discover is love.  There are issues such as Greg's impending marriage to separate them and a surprise event in Elises life to interfere with their happiness. On the rocky road to reconciliation there are bound to be potholes and detours and if one is determined to make it work nothing is impossible.I was amazed by the stages of Greg and Elyse's relationship progression. The author didn't rush things for the sake of moving the story along.  I felt the love story was realistically told.  The obstacles such as Gregs former girlfriend trying to thwart a romance and issues around Elyse's law career are well told throughout the book. The story also examines familial relationships with Gregs mother and Elyse's parents.  The use of food through the love story was well depicted such as Elyses mothers cooking exotic things and there were so many great descriptions I was hungry as I read it.I felt there was a natural sense of humor in Greg and Elyses flirtatious texts and the level of emotions being displayed appropriately. I felt Hello, Love was well told overall and ended happily like all love stories should be.The cover depicting a pretty blond girl and a dark haired man looked exactly like I would picture the two characters.I would give this story five stars as it is well told as a realistic romance with its ups and downs. I would also recommend Hello, Love to romance readers.
