Coming Home – This is my first read by this author and I liked the story although it’s not finished. Some of the storylines were completed but others remain to be finished. While needing minor editing, the story is well written and moves at a constant pace. The characters are good and their dialog realistic. There was definitely a lot of drama happening, sometimes too much; it read like a soap opera.
I wasn’t too crazy about the vulgar language and the sex with strangers (by the same woman – I’ve never understood how revenge sex evened the score of his cheating; it’s so degrading her stooping to his level and that’s good?), but overall the story and a couple of twists kept my interest enough to finish it. There’s a sequel. I found this book on Booksprout. 3.5*
I adored this cheeky, smart and heartwarming small-town romance! Holly Kerr is a sensitive and expressive writer who really excels at creating characters that come to life and with whom you wish you were best friends. An excellent story!
