Tyler freaking Weston. You’ve stolen my heart. Or I’ll take a line from the book - “Your whiskey sour set my soul on fire” Interested? You definitely should be. Let’s talk about why.This book is, in a nutshell, about a girl who goes on vacation and finds her true self. Along the way, she meets a bartender who woos her and sweeps her off of her feet. Will a one-night (or eleven-night) stand turn into something more though? Hmm…good question.Meet Erin (I have to say, it is AMAZING reading your own name as the main character) – Controlling and organized. I swear, you’ll be on her side in no time. Don’t let the negative characteristics scare you away. She’s just strong and independent. She knows what she wants from life and that’s the way it is. There’s nothing wrong with that, in my opinion. She’s definitely not your timid, innocent little heroine like we’re all used to though. For me, that made her stand out even more from the crowd. Watching Erin transform from the type of woman she was to whom she becomes was so enjoyable.And then there’s Tyler. Tyler Tyler Tyler. I love him. Truly, honestly, seriously…I’m in LOVE with him. Tyler works as a bartender at his family-owned bar. He’s sexy, witty, charming, and hilarious. He’s romantic, and not at all what you think he is when you first meet him. He’s adorable but hot at the same time. I could keep going, so I’ll stop but you see what I’m saying. When I pick up a book and expect to love it, a Tyler Weston-type character is what I’m hoping will be unveiled in those pages. Basically…he’s IT. He’s everything we love. (Can I add that reading a line where he uses the name Erin felt like he was speaking to me?! Swoon)Overall, this book is so carefree, lighthearted, and so funny. There are some intense moments that will break your heart, but for a large majority of the book, you’ll be giggling with delight. The writing is great. You’ll feel connected to these characters and their passion for one another. If I could give a book more than 5 stars, I would for Come Sundown. Chelsea Landon wrote a fantastic novel, and I can’t wait for book 2.<3 Erin
