We left Lydia in the previous book, ready to embark on an adventurous summer in North Carolina. This story picked up at the end of the summer, which was fine, since she didn't do much besides reading and eating. I know how that feels--sometimes I'm all talk and not brave enough to follow through with my big plans. A chance meeting with Blake and a canceled flight led to an exciting couple of days and the fun was crammed in.Like I said, I could relate to Lydia. I live a lot through books, just like she did. I loved the reoccurring theme and the pep talk she gave herself over and over again--be brave. Sometimes, it's hard to break out of the box, but Lydia realized that sometimes a person has to do that and the satisfaction that comes from doing so is very fulfilling.Blake was awesome! His grandfather knew him well and the lesson he learned was really important. I loved how aware and thoughtful he was, not only towards Lydia, but towards Frankie, too. He was very chivalrous and thoughtful. I loved all the little things he planned to help Lydia out.I've mentioned before how much I enjoy seeing the way this stories connect to one another. They're all so cute, different, and romantic. There were quite a few parts that had me smiling.Content: kissing; Clean.*I received a copy in exchange for an honest review*
