Gwen Robbins loves her job waitressing at the Pine Valley resort restaurant, and as a single woman, she has no trouble turning down any offers of dates from the restaurant patrons. Even when her boss, Seth Owens, shows interest in her, she’s not tempted in the least, no matter how strong their attraction.
But when Seth helps her through a crisis, she begins to see him in a different light. He’s not the rich and privileged business owner she first makes him out to be, but a man who’s making huge sacrifices to follow his own dreams. As Seth encourages Gwen to mend her own divide with her family, she realizes her heart is slowly opening toward a better future.
Opening line:
""Fourth of July isn't until Thursday,' Alicia told Gwen."
First of all, the cover of this story is delicious, I mean, gorgeous. I want to back cupcakes now! But they will never be as good as Seth's. He bakes and cooks and is really good at it. unfortunately, his dad is not supportive of this 'hobby' even though Seth is a pro.
Second, I love the characters and the romantic tension that builds between Seth and Gwen. She works in the restaurant that he owns. He helps her make cupcakes at the last minute and she says yes to working his parents Fourth of July BBQ. Gwen gets to also meet the ex-girlfriend. The tension ratchets up.
Third, this book is a perfect summer read on a road trip or on the beach or by the pool. It's a quick, fun, clean romance with great kissing scenes (the word 'kiss' is in the book at least 60 times; I'm not saying there is that much kissing though...).
Fourth, I can't wait for more of Heather Moore's books. She's one of the authors who's books I know I'll enjoy every. single. time I read her stories.
Disclaimer: I may or may not have gained weight reading this book...
