(Fox River Romance #7)

Kensie Lawson is a devoted daughter, a loyal sister, and a lover of animals. She spends her time knitting nerdy scarves, fostering furry friends, and reading romance novels. Painfully shy, highly anxious, and battling depression, Kensie has put her love life on the back burner. Not that she hasn’t noticed the hunky single father who frequents her family’s hardware store.

Hudson Grace is a young widower, a single father, and a stand-up guy. He divides his time between building his construction business, keeping tabs on his younger brothers, and raising his precocious daughter. Carrying too much on his broad shoulders, and determined to provide the best life he can for his family, Hudson has sacrificed having romantic relationships. Until he can’t ignore his growing interest in the compassionate and kind Kensie.

Favorite Quotes:

 

Not a morning person and forced to wake very early even during the summer, my half-asleep daughter… wisely told me once that if the sun hadn’t risen yet, it was too early to be awake, and I didn’t blame her for that logic.

We all had to learn that we see things through our own lens and that it isn’t always the most accurate image.

My Review:

 

I admire, covet, and adore Jess B. Moore’s perceptive and stealthily observant storytelling skills. Her original and endearingly quirky characters are so refreshingly real and knowable that I know their voices and hear them talking to each other in my head as I read. Her stories are a pleasure to fall into and easily fit together whether you have read the previous installments in the series or not. But I advise amassing the entire collection, they are all frankly divine and have that special sly touch that must be magic as her words somehow squeeze my heart while opening it up. I suspect the woman has a clandestine supply of pixie dust which she surreptitiously mixes into her ink pen.

Jess B. Moore is a writer of love stories.  When she’s not writing, she’s busy mothering her talented and stubborn children, reading obscene numbers of books, and knitting scarves she’ll likely never finish.   

Jess lives in small-town North Carolina with her bluegrass obsessed family.  She takes too many pictures of her cats, thinking the Internet loves them as much as she does.  She is a firm believer of swapping stories over coffee or wine, and that there should always be dark chocolate involved.
