5 out of 5 stars
The novella Only This Tuesday is a wonderful romance story. It has the amazing characters of Tuesday Benson and Blake Rodgers who I loved reading about. Tuesday is a patient, kind, and caring person. She has come to Copper Mills to escape her past. She operates the food truck Tuesday’s Tacos. She is also one that enjoys giving young people opportunities and that is why she offers a job to a local youth in town. She then finds herself in an unexpected situation. Blake is the mayor of Copper Mills. He loves the small town and does everything he can to make sure that it is a wonderful place to live. He also has ideas that keep the tourist trade growing. When he first meets Tuesday there is an instant attraction that forms. He finds himself thinking of her constantly. Tuesday guards her heart. She, however, can’t stop thinking about Blake. While she normally keeps her heart hidden there seems to be a small crack in the wall she has around it. Will this couple act on their feelings for one another and become more than friends? Will any relationship that they have survive bigotry, gossip, and an ex-girlfriend? Will they find happiness and an HEA? Read this story to find out. This is a wonderfully written book that once I started reading I didn’t want to put down. There are additional characters that you are introduced to who work and own businesses in the town. I enjoyed reading about their part in the story and also how they interact with Tuesday and Blake. This is a book would highly recommend reading.

This was my first read by this author and I really enjoyed it. It was quick moving and had just enough of everything to keep me hooked throughout the whole story. I enjoyed the uniqueness of the storyline and the characters were written perfectly. I loved the subject matter and how that was handled. That part felt very real and it made me love Tuesday from the start. I wanted to throw my kindle a couple times and crawl through it and slap some people but again that’s just how it is and you just aren’t going to change people’s minds no matter what you do.
I loved the food truck, that was an awesome addition and the interaction between Tuesday and Blake.
This was an all around great read and I can’t wait to read more about Copper Mills and will be checking out what else this author has available.

Holy cow! This was just what the doctor ordered! (Literally I needed a good evening read to get out of my head.) I have only read a small novella in an anthology by Melissa Kier before, which I enjoyed, but I am more and more falling in love with her writing. She really knows how to weave a story with grace and heart in one well written compact package. This novella is under 120 pages, and I felt like I got a 300 page story. I truly enjoyed my time with Tuesday in Copper Mills.
Tuesday has set up her new food truck, Tuesday’s Tacos, and a new life in Copper Mills. She recently lost her mother, her business, and had a brutal breakup. Everything was going so well with business that she needed to hire another set of hands. Little did she know how much crud that was going to cause when she hired the boy she hired… Will it destroy everything she just rebuilt?
Blake Rodgers, the mayor of Copper Mills is another of our MC’s He does all he can for the people of Copper Mills. One trip to the grocery store finds him in the path of Tuesday and in an insta-kinda love. But of course there is always a catch somewhere in the happiness… His crazy ex has other plans in mind, and things start to get really ugly.
I adored this story for so many reasons. I could go on and on, but I feel like I would give too much away. For more you will just have to pick up this gem and read for yourself what happens for these two. I must now go and find some more goodies from Melissa Keir!
Only this Tuesday was a great 5 star read.
I was pulled right in from the beginning with the kindness that Tuesday was showing towards Gil, a young man that would visit her food truck daily. I knew I was going to love the rest of the story as well.
Blake is the Mayor of Copper Mills and loves the small town feel and spending time around town. When Blake and Tuesday literally run into each other at the grocery store, she is pulled in by his blue eyes and white teeth. I had a LOL moment during this scene.
I wonder if fate had her crashing into me for my own good. Maybe to tell me I’d been fishing in the wrong lake. – Blake
While out for a walk and some lunch, Blake finds himself at Tuesday’s food truck. He was pleasantly surprised to see her. They start dating and learning more about each other.
When Blake’s ex tries to cause some issues for Tuesday, things start to get very interesting.
Can Blake and Tuesday make things work and have a HEA? Will Blake’s ex get what’s coming to her?
Overall I really enjoyed this read, there are some sad teary eyed moments as you learn more about Tuesday and her family. And the more I learned about Gil’s history the more it tugged at my heart. What this poor boy went through after he was born just broke me, sadly this is a very real problem. Having someone like Tuesday in his life was a blessing, she was so good with him. The secondary characters added a great element to the story, I have to say I very much disliked Blake’s ex fiance Judith. This is my first read from Melissa Keir and I loved it, I look forward to reading more from her.

Only this Tuesday: A Copper Mills Novella by Melissa Keir is a wonderful small-town romance with an insta-love and new-beginnings aspect to it. There is also some drama, fun, and spice that made this quite an engaging read. From the sexy cover, interesting and quirky characters, and sweet story- this book ticks all the boxes and has everything you would want to have in a great read. Ms. Keir has an easy, inviting and sexy style that pulls you in, and will easily able to hold your attention, the whole way through.
Tuesday Benson moved to Copper Mills hoping for a fresh start after losing her mother, her business, and discovering her boyfriend’s ultimate betrayal. She now runs her own food truck, Tuesday’s Tacos, which is proving to be quite popular with both tourists and locals alike. With business getting busier, she decides to hire a local boy to assist her in the kitchen. Little did she expect that this would bring intense media scrutiny and hateful attention, which will threaten everything she’s worked so hard for.
Blake Rodgers is the charismatic and easy-going Mayor of Copper Mills. He works hard to promote his town and do the best for all the residents. He loves the simple pleasure of life and hasn’t got a pretentious bone in his body. But when a trip to the grocery store throws him in the path of a gorgeous, outgoing woman- he’s charmed and can’t stop thinking about her. And just when things seem to be progressing between them, his self-centred and spiteful ex begins a hateful campaign that has the potential to not only ruin their blossoming romance, but also jeopardises his job. Will they find a way to put a stop to her smear campaign? Will their fledgling romance be strong enough to endure the attacks, or will it become a casualty too? Will the witch get her comeuppance? What will the future hold for these two? All these answers can be found between the cover of this delightful story.
This book contains a sweet romance, great chemistry, and some fun banter. The author also includes some more delicate subject matter, such as people with special needs/disabilities, suicide, and prejudice- but she does so in an honest and caring way. I loved the underlying message that the story contained, and I really wish that everyone had the same respect for people with special needs or disabilities, as Tuesday shows in this story.
I can’t wait to pick up my next read by Ms. Keir- I know I will be in good hands!
Thank you, Ms Keir!
Melissa Keir’s Only This Tuesday: A Copper Mills Novella may be a short story, but it shares a beautifully written romance that brews and cannot be denied. The lead characters both had lessons they learned in their lives and knew what they were and were not willing to settle for in their lives despite what may be laid in their paths. I found how the author laid out several themes in the story were well done. I would love to have seen this written as a longer story, but I enjoyed what was provided. I liked Tuesday’s character, her personality and her sense of morality. Definitely a great female character to be paired against the male lead.
This story is creative and engaging, it’s full of drama and romance. Tuesday and Blake are great characters that make this story flow which I read in one sitting. Tuesday runs a food truck in a small town while trying to escape her past. When she hires a special needs boy, she doesn’t realize the problems it will cause. Then meets Blake by accident, they like each other from the start but a force is working against them. They are sweet together and I highly recommend reading their story.
So fun!!!!
I’ve been reading a lot of “sweet romance” lately and this one has a “closed door” scene so I’m not sure it how it would be classified, but I would NOT be embarrassed recommending to my elderly mother’s book club.
Copper Mills seems to be a typical small town with personalities and allegiences that run deep.
In ONLY THIS TUESDAY we are introduced to the Mayor of Copper Mills and one of it’s beautiful residents. It’s a quick read and I read every word from beginning to end.
I appreciated the diversity of characters. The fact that people of different abilities and the families who care for them are handled with Grace and dignity.
I absolutely have added this series to my “must read” pile.

Rated 4 stars
This is a cute story from the town of Cooper Mills. I was intrigued by the synopsis. I liked that it was about a food truck owner. Tuesday is a great character and she has heart. She does a lovely thing for a young man. She is intelligent, a quick thinker, and loves small town life. I enjoyed how she met the mayor. Very funny! Blake was an interesting guy. Being the mayor has its good and bad sides. I enjoyed how he loved the town and the people who live there. I loved how he acted like a teenager once he met Tuesday. Then again how excited Blake was when Tuesday said “yes” to a dinner date. Soo excited! It made me smile!
This book is a good solid story that is easy to read and moves along at a quick pace. I liked the characters but didn’t really feel a “connection” to them. This is filled with some fun and goofy times as well as a brief touch on a more serious topic. Good read!

Review by Anastasia D.
I have to say that I was intrigued by Only This Tuesday by Melissa Keir. It was slightly different than what I’m used to, but that’s not to say that I was opposed to it.
I loved the way that the author created these characters and their storylines. I absolutely loved the feel of sweet romance that I got from this book, and couldn’t wait to see what the end result was. More than anything, I enjoyed that it evoked several emotions from me while reading – that is what I love reading. This was definitely a 4 Star Book!!
This is the first book I have read from this author and now she has a new fan. I love a good small town romance but this author exceeded all my expectations. This book is anything but small it has everything a real story has and more. I could not stop reading this book. You can’t help but to fall in love with these characters. It only took me a little over an hour to devour this amazing story.
Tuesday Benson moved to Copper Mills to get a fresh new start on life. She lost her mother, business, and her boyfriend. When she finds out that her boyfriend did the ultimate betrayal she had no choice but to move. Tuesday loves the small town life. She owns her own little food truck that is taking off really well. Tuesday is way too busy to keep up with everything so she hires a boy to help her. One day she is shopping for some ingredients and she runs into a very handsome man. She doesn’t realize that she runs into the mayor Blake Rogers. Tuesday doesn’t understand why she keeps on thinking about Blake but he keeps on showing up in her life. Will Tuesday have the right ingredients to make real love come to life or will their pasts break them apart?
I absolutely loved this book. This storyline has it all romance, drama, and humor. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Tuesday is a beautiful woman that has a heart of gold. She doesn’t want to get hurt so she puts her walls up. Blake is a perfect gentleman. He is a very powerful man but he doesn’t take it for granted. These characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This author brings up some delicate moments but she does it so beautifully it will make your heart melt. I can’t wait to see what is next for this small town.
Only This Tuesday: A Copper Mills novella by Melissa Keir is a quick and easy read.
A Mayor and a Taco Truck owner, there shouldn’t be any problems there. However throw in a bit of controversy and a lot of small town gossip and things won’t be quite so plain sailing.
This was a completely new author for me and I have to say I enjoyed the easy, flowing style that her writing showcased. The characters were enjoyable and relatable and the story was a fun and interesting one. This was a relatively quick read but it never felt like I was missing anything from the story. This was a great book and I am looking forward to seeing more of Melissa’s work.

I loved this story! It was such a sweet romance story between two wonderful characters. Tuesday was a genuinely lovely person, the way she was with Gil melted my heart. She saw the potential in him and wanted to give him a chance! Before I even knew where the storyline was headed and we were introduced to the characters separately I knew that I wanted Tuesday and Blake to meet! The way Judith treated Blake made me cross, she was not a nice person at all! Blake was really nice and I loved this instant connection he had with Tuesday! They both deserved to find each other and I was rooting for them the whole way through!
I have read a book by this author previously and this one lived up to everything I expected from her. It was beautifully written and very engaging. I shall definitely be reading more from her again in the future!
Only This Tuesday: A Copper Mills Novella by Melissa Keir is a short romance story, about falling in love and overcoming adversity. I really enjoyed this tale that Melissa has shared and I fell in love with the town and the main characters. It is also one of emotions and deals with issues of helping those with disabilities. There is one character that you will love to hate because of who she represents and the things she does but she gets what is coming to her. The world in which Melissa has written is simplistic and charming and just the place to fall in love. All in all it is a story that will take you on a magical journey. So relax and settle in to enjoy.
