I bought this one on impulse after seeing the cover, it's beautiful and so my expectations were kind of high. Thankfully the author didn't disappoint. He delivered with an emotional and sweet story that will sit with me for a while. Without giving too much away about the plot, Sam Reid, Hollywoods A-List actor ends up on Hailey Wellands doorstep with a fair amount of baggage. She expects him to be problematic and partly that was true. However she doesn't expect to fall for him.Both of them have failed relationships and in his time at the center they learn about each others past and find a common bond which draws them together.Trying to sum up what it was about. Um... I would say it was a story about overcoming personal struggles and finding love in an unexpected place. It does deal with alcohol addiction and I was quite taken back by what people must got through trying to get off it. Initially I thought the idea of someone meeting a hollywood actor would be cliched, and I have bought my fair share of those books.The way he weaved in the love story with the addiction and the town characters made it believable. Lovely small town feel to it. Speaking of great characters, there was only one that I didn't like, Tommy. I loved her friend Cassie and Maggie. Reminded me of one of my friends.Overall, great summer read!
