Sparing the Heart by Tracy Krimmer
Realtor and amateur bowler Kate Hayes is the ultimate fixer-upper at this stage in her life. Grieving the death of her father, she moves to a brand new town for a fresh frame. She quickly realizes, however, that location isn’t everything she’s always preached to her clients when she finds herself falling into the same bad habits. To break the cycle, she joins a local bowling league and meets handsome – but taken – meteorologist Kellan Valentine. Will their friendship lead to sunny skies or it is another forecast for disaster?Hey! Here's my review.
I may have been slightly stalking Tracy while waiting for her to finish writing this book. I fell in love with her light and fun writing style with the first two books in this series, then proceeded to devour everything else she had written in the meantime. There may actually have been an audible squeee when I received my advanced reader copy to review and it skipped to the top of my review pile (sorry everyone else - favouritism at play).Those of you who have read Caching In will remember Seth's sister Kate, who helped him run the B&B. Tracy has done it again, she has taken a character I didn't really like (just like she did with Chelsea in Jay Walking) and shown them to me in a whole new light. I really liked Kate in this book and it demonstrated how differently we can act around our family compared to people we don't know so well.
The writing was light and fun. I wasn't so teary with this one, but I remained fully engaged, wondering how Kate would work through her dilemma of what to do when you fall in love with a man who is engaged to someone else. You'll have to read it to find out... But I will tell you that the ending left me feeling satisfied.
I received this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review.
