Book Description: For Quinn Collins, buying the flower shop in downtown Harbor Pointe fulfills a childhood dream, but also gives her the chance to stick it to her mom, who owned the store before skipping town twenty years ago and never looking back. Completing much-needed renovations, however, while also competing for a prestigious flower competition with her mother as the head judge, soon has Quinn in over her head. Not that she’d ever ask for help.
Luckily, she may not need to. Quinn’s father and his meddling friends find the perfect solution in notorious Olympic skier Grady Benson, who had only planned on passing through the old-fashioned lakeside town. But when a heated confrontation leads to property damage, helping Quinn as a community-service sentence seems like the quickest way out―and the best way to avoid more negative press.
Quinn finds Grady reckless and entitled; he thinks she’s uptight and too regimented. Yet as the two begin to hammer and saw, Quinn sees glimpses of the vulnerability behind the bravado, and Grady learns from her passion and determination, qualities he seems to have lost along the way. But when a well-intentioned omission has devastating consequences, Grady finds himself cast out of town―and Quinn’s life―possibly forever. Forced to face the hurt holding her back, Quinn must finally let go or risk missing out on the adventure of a lifetime.
My Thoughts: I'll be honest I picked this book based on the beautiful cover. Not only is the cover gorgeous but the story is pretty sweet too. Sometimes we just have to let go. Let go of petty ideas, prejudices and disappointments.
I like Quinn Collins. She has a lot of plans and ideas. But when her father and his funtastic friends jump in to help Quinn with her store renovations, Quinn finds herself in a much heated argument with a brazen, entitled skier, Grady Benson.
After the heated argument both Grady and Quinn must do community service for the, uhm, property damage from said argument. Quinn has a difficult time understanding Grady.
When things worsen and Grady is kicked out of town Quinn begins to think that maybe just maybe she might like to be with Grady.
An interesting and romantic story.
If you enjoy faith filled stories then this is the book for you.
