Review: Short, but Sweet

I fell in love with Deep Haven when I first read "My Foolish Heart" and was excited to learn there were more books set in this loveable small community, including this short novella, "Hook, Line and Sinker."I like how the plot line is a sweet, simple story, but with a character arc that is indicative of a Susan May Warren novel. Of course because the novella is pretty short it is a quick read and felt a *bit* rushed, but that is the nature of a novella.I didn't recognize the two main characters, but I'm wondering if they might have shown up in earlier Deep Haven novels.  The novel has a bit of prequel feel, but I didn't feel lost in previous history while reading.It's a love story between two people who - over a misunderstanding - have pushed aside their love, but never forgotten it, only tried to bury it. Seeing them work towards the other were sweet moments in the book.Combine a love story with fishing and a two college age grads in love and with a heart for God's ministry you have a quick, fun, but enjoyable novel. The kind that is fun to curl up with and spend an hour or so lost in another world.This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers for my copy to review.
