I had a great time and was highly entertaining with each turn of the page. The characters are strong and well developed and engaging. With a storyline that flowed smoothly from beginning to the end. Looking forward to reading more by this author.

Victoria and Weston are from different worlds. They connected when she helped him out with last minute flower arrangements for his sister’s bridal shower. His ex is in the wedding party and the mayor of Spruce Valley convinced Victoria to take on the task of planting flowers downtown. They decide to help each other out and pretend to be dating. But the more time Victoria spends in Weston’s world the more she feels like she doesn’t belong. I loved his sister Bianca who was going for her dream of being a surgeon and wasn’t settling for being a wealthy housewife and mother and that she stood up for Victoria against her snobby wedding party. Weston stumbles some with Victoria and believes that money can solve most problems. His nasty ex is determined to break them up and get him back and his immature college friends make him look like a fool. I did love his wedding toast to his sister about differences making them stronger. It was great to catch up with the characters from the previous books in this series. This was a clean fake relationship romance.
This sweet romance is a perfect mix between small town love story and rich guy trope. Victoria is the sweet flower shop owner who comes to Weston’s rescue when the flowers for his sister’s bridal party turn up half dead. Weston’s heart is stolen almost immediately as Victoria demonstrates the great difference between herself and most of his entitled friends.
Katie Carver built a beautiful world that mixes the small town feeling while still having access to all of the things that come from a larger city. She was able to mix the two worlds perfectly in order to have the romance between these two very different characters work. While Victoria is almost too perfect of a character, the story was a very sweet romance and the happily ever after wrapped up in a satisfying way.
Victoria and Weston are so perfect but boy sometimes they need to communicate better, Weston’s sister is sweet and thankfully she has Victoria and Victoria’s best friend Delia, but Victoria and Weston’s Mum yikes!! There are plenty of laughs, some really awkward and forehead slapping moments as well as great characters that you will love or love to hate which makes you need to know how it all ends!

Victoria owns the floral shop in Spruce Valley, and she bails Weston out of a bridal shower emergency. His sister is marrying his best friend, and his former girlfriend is the maid of honor. Victoria agrees to be his fake girlfriend at all of the wedding festivities so Monica will see that he’s moved on and leave him along. In exchange, he’s going to hep her with some new planting to spruce up the town square. Victoria doesn’t realize that his family is wealthy, and feels so out of place when she’s included in the events. This is a very sweet story, one that I enjoyed reading. Victoria and Weston are so cute together, and I’m glad to see them overcome their differences. This is the final book in the series, and it’s been a pleasure to read all the books.

I was given an advance copy of this book for an honest review. Once again, Katie Carver delivers another dynamic story! Book 4 of her Spruce Valley series was just as fantastic as the other three books. The scenes are full of abundant details so lively that they blend and flow smoothly. Remarkable job! I recommend reading this series!
