Peaches and Dreams, an all-new single dad small-town romance from Juliette Cross, is available now in Kindle Unlimited!

Marly Rivers is not crazy. No matter what everyone says. They may think her dream is foolish, but she plans to prove them all wrong—one jar of moonshine at a time. 

Single dad Wade Kelley is just fine. No matter what his best friend Jed says. He doesn’t need a woman in his life. But when his son Jake breaks a jar of moonshine, he sets something in motion that neither Wade nor Marly are prepared for. 

A friendly favor turns into late nights, long dinners, and a romp in the woods. And in a deer stand too. By the time Wade realizes he’s fallen hard and deep for Mad Marly, it may be too late to tell her. When she falls into real and sudden danger with poachers, he may not even be able to save her. 

‘Peaches and Dreams’ is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone. Book #4 in the Green Valley Heroes series, Green Valley Chronicles, Penny Reid Book Universe.

My Rating:

Favorite Quotes:

I’m considered pretty cool with the boys. The seven and eight-year-old variety, mostly.

I put the fun in funny.

That man is a full-on smoke-show.

“Marleen. You are very scary and kind of a lot. Especially to shy guys.” I preened and flipped my hair, liking that description. “I’m kind of a femme fatale, huh?” “More like a femme frightfully flamboyant.” “That’s too much alliteration. But I still like it.”

My Review:

This was good fun from start to finish and sparkled with giggle-snort-worthy humor. I laughed aloud as often as I was gasping for breath during steamy sensual scenes that left me dehydrated and grasping for libation. The writing was cleverly amusing, well-paced, low angst, and highly engaging. The storylines were populated with authentic yet knowable characters who were endearing, smoking hot, adorable, witty, well-nuanced, and irreverent – my favorite kind of people!
