BLOG TOUR
Everyone hates parts of their job.Maybe it’s the paperwork. Maybe it’s the day-to-day grind. Maybe it’s that client who never knows what they want, or the guy who always cooks fish in the microwave.
But not me. I love every corner of the Longbourne Flower Shop, every flower, every petal, every stem. I love the greenhouse, and I love Mrs. Bennet, my boss. I love creating, and I love being a florist. I don’t hate anything at all.
Except for Luke Bennet.
The Bennet brothers have come home to help their mom save the flower shop, and Luke is at the helm. His smile tells a tale of lust, loose and easy. He moves with the grace of a predator, feral and wild. A thing unbridled, without rules or constraint.
When he comes home to save Longbourne, I almost can’t be mad at him.
Almost.
He doesn’t remember that night I’ll never forget. That kiss, touched with whiskey and fire. It branded me like a red-hot iron. But it meant nothing to him.
Everyone hates part of their job, and I hate Luke Bennet.
Because if I don’t, I’ll fall in love with him.
"Love happens in moments" is the theme of the first of the new installations in the window of Longbourne, the flower shop that has been in the Bennets' family for generations. It's love that brings the family together again when the shop threatens to fail and it's love that sparks all of the changes that help secure the shop's future and well, there may be some other kind of love around as well, the more romantic kind of it. Love is at the heart of it all.What I loved was the way the family stood together to help out, how everybody just pitched in in order to get things done, to save the shop. I loved the chemistry between our hero and our heroine and how they learned to work together and to overcome their not totally uncomplicated past. I mean, at least one of them has to overcome their past, the other one doesn't remember anything. Apart from that though, I just loved to see Luke grow as a person and fall in love and for him to be willing to work for the things (and the people) that mean something to him.
There were many sweet and cute moments when Luke and Tess interact but it's also the whole family, the way they stand together, work together, Tess and her father and...wow. I really really enjoyed this sweet and wonderful book and can't wait for the next book in this series.
