Ruthie Knox has become one of my favorite romance authors. I love her style and voice, her stories are believable thanks to well-written characters, and I always get what I want - the possibility of vicarious living through other people's adventures. The heroine's growth in this one was a sight to behold, and the hero slowly mended himself back together. The romance was sweet and unpredictable at the same time. I loved both the cooking/food, and the beekeeping aspect of the story, since my family keeps bees as well, it's not an often-seen hobby in romancelandia. The view of New York was great, too, and it made me want to experience it for myself. What can I say, other than I really liked this book. It wasn't perfect, but as I remember it now, I remember it very fondly, and to me, that's worth the five-star reward. Well done, Ms. Knox, well done. ADRI'S REVIEW:First of all like always I want to thank NetGalley and Random House Loveswept for providing us a copy of this book so we could bring you this review.Ok I have to say that I really disliked Ben when I read this book. He is an ass who doesn't know what he wants from him life. He isn't willing to listen to anyone and is a stubborn fool. That being said I can understand why he is that way once we meet the person who makes him that way. May is a bit of a neive character and as someone who's been to NYC quite a number of times made me worried for her safety. But then gain that was the exact point of her character, the willingness to think everyone is good. I think it was a great book for the start of a series and look forward to seeing what else happens with these characters in the future books.Happy Reading... Adri
What do You think about Truly (2013)?
This might be my favorite of Ruthie's books. This was very nicely done all the way around.
