A jilted bride. A struggling innkeeper. And a romantic
mountain getaway that changes everything
Rising Hollywood star Mia Emerson is looking for a safe
place to land in the wake of a public breakup and celebrity scandal, and she
finds it in the lake town of Bluebell, North Carolina—the location of her
canceled honeymoon. She wants nothing more than to hide and wait for the tabloids
to die down.
Soon after her arrival at the Bluebell Inn, Mia meets Levi
Bennett, who runs the inn along with his two younger sisters. Drawn to one
another from the start, Mia trusts Levi to keep her location from the press,
and Levi confides in Mia about the precarious financial state of the inn—a
secret he’s been keeping from his sisters.
When Mia and Levi discover an old journal that hints at a
rare diamond necklace hidden in the inn, they set off on a treasure hunt to
find the long-lost heirloom. What they don’t expect to surface are feelings
they thought were safely locked away. Mia and Levi must decide if falling in
love again is too big a risk—or if it will uncover a treasure of its own
instead.
Carolina Breeze is the follow-up to Lake Season. The series involves three siblings, after losing their parents. vow to continue with their parents' dream of opening up the Bluebell Inn. This is Levi and Mia's story. While I did enjoy his one, I didn't like it as much as Lake Season. The reason being I was never invested in the romance between Levi and Mia. It felt a bit forced to me and I didn't really feel like to had time to grow.
What I loved more about this book was the relationship between the siblings. Poor Levi felt like he had to take the world on his shoulders. While a bit misguided, he did what he could to make sure his sisters had what they needed. I loved how they came together in the end. If you loved Lake Season, there is a scene with Molly in this one that will make you smile. I do look forward to Grace's story. I do recommend this one.
