Everything is going according to plan until he steps foot into the new age shop with the neon psychic sign in the window.
She wants to save him from the heartache she wished she’d avoided. He wants to get in and get out of town and back his regularly scheduled life. What neither of them sees coming is a chance at love that was written in the stars.

This was an ARC given to me by the author and it is my first read by her.
Just reading the blurb I was very interested in this book! And then I got it and the prologue got me right away!! Which I just love when that happens cuz I never want to put the book down and figure out what happens right away.
I have to say that I loved Penny! I thought she was very strong with everything that happened to her growing up in her small town with her psychic mother, she overcame, yes a little different than who she was but she overcame it nonetheless. Then her marriage ends and she is left to make the decision to go back home to her mother with her son. But how bad could it be?
AJ is a city boy that is sent to this small town with nothing to do in it, or so he thinks. He is there on business but to show his hopefully new fiancé that this town isn’t so bad, they end up going to see a psychic. She loves what is told to her, AJ not so much! But in the end is it fate that changed his life or was it Penny?
Elizabeth Lee wrote a wonderful book that was full of romance and very steamy scenes! I am excited to read the next book about Emma and Cam!
Total recommended book and it’s 5⃣
I have read books by this author before and have always enjoyed them.
This is the first book in a brand new series. It is set in “Fate’s Landing” which is a quirky, small town that our protagonist finds herself back in after her life suddenly changes. “Fate’s Landing” is full of interesting characters who I am sure we will be revisiting in future stories of this series.
PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS has romance, humor, angst, redemption and wonder family and friends. This story is totally in my wheelhouse and it was an enjoyable “one sitting” read.
I look forward to the next story in the series.
How do you open your heart again after love betrays you? Penny finds herself back in Fate’s Landing, a hometown she wanted to escape, rebuilding her life with her son Jordan. Being the ‘freak’ because your mother is psychic growing up was hard and when she met Derek, she thought he was the love of her life until he cheated. As she helps her mother grow her business, a real estate developer arrives and a fateful palm reading has Penny sharing her two-cents with him. AJ doesn’t know why he takes Paige into Madame Fiona’s but a palm reading is the last thing he expects. Later, the woman he thought he would marry says no, you’re not the guy for me. As he works to win over the town for the resort his company wants to build, he finds an unlikely ally in Penny. Now, these two have a comfortable connection but both are gun shy. This is a game of will they or won’t they allow themselves to realize love can strike quickly. Penny struggles to find her trust in love again which causes a lot of drama but is understandable. She is a psychic like her mother so how did she not know Derek would break her heart. I love how AJ worked to break down her walls and show her what true love can really be. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
I received this book as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Charismatic and emotional, Penny for Your Thoughts is magic threaded through the pages of romance. I enjoyed my first read from Elizabeth Lee and I am excited to venture back to Fate’s Landing for book 2.
This book! It left me with a huge smile on my face. You will fall in love with Penny & A.J. Not to mention Jordan. I was so excited when I read the epilogue and I cannot wait for the second book to come out!
After her divorce, Penny is back home with her son. This isn’t where she expected to be. She should have trusted her psychic abilities. She’ll never make that mistake again. Fate’s Landing has fallen on hard times. AJ is here to build a resort. He and Penny get off to a rocky start, even though their chemistry is powerful. As they grow closer, I wanted them to be together for every. I wished that Penny would trust herself and didn’t push AJ away. He’s a keeper. AJ is caring and sweet. I love how he treats Penny and her son. These two are perfect for each other. I enjoyed being in Fate’s Landing. The people there are worth knowing. Madame Fiona, Penny’s mother, is an original. She made me smile. Elizabeth Lee has written a romantic story. I loved this second chance at love romance. Her characters are well written with their sweet and sassy dialogue. I cared for them. I’m looking forward to the next book in this new series.
“She is nothing like what I thought I wanted and everything I never knew I needed.”
Penny for your Thoughts is mixed with humor, angst and romance. The main characters are likable and I was rooting for them since they met. Set in a small town with wonderful secondary characters. There’s great banter, good humor, and a bit of drama. A really enjoyable contemporary romance.
