For twenty-something Boston school teacher Ruth, she's gotten by just fine on playing it safe, thank you very much. But now her risk-free life and nice-girl demeanor are leaving her increasingly heartsick. So when she meets bad boy Derek, she's willing to overlook her “no romance” rule and give him a chance to prove her fears wrong. Because he, also, is plagued by a sense of ennui and pointlessness, wanting to change his fast-and-loose living but not knowing how. Neither can deny the inexplicable, illogical attraction drawing them together, and they are hard-pressed to resist it. But what will their unlikely relationship cost, and who will be caught in the crossfire? The Light Between Us is a sassy and sensual romp from Poppy Parkes. Part love story, part comedy of errors, and part coming of age tale, The Light Between Us is a delicious read for fans of the romance and new adult genres alike. This box set - The Light Between Us - its sequel, Finding Me and You - Wedding Jitters, the companion short story
I have read several of books by Poppy Parkes now and really liked all of them. That streak continues with The Light Between Us box set of three books - The Light Between Us, Finding Me and You, and Wedding Jitters. Each story is a continuation of the previous so you should read them in order. The story of Ruth and Derek is sweet and lovely. They may be opposites but they are definitely drawn to each other and connected in a way that is deep and meaningful. There are a few bumps and twists along the way to their HEA but nothing over the top or too heavy. Personally I would have liked a bit more of the sexy bad stuff. However, I did enjoy this lighter love story and would recommend it.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

I love Ruth and Derek's story. This is a great boxset. It has their story and their continuation after their HEA. The struggles they had to go through and to grow was so heart wrenching and sweet, and lovely. I couldn't stop and had to keep reading until I was done. You will not be disappointed.

I enjoyed this sweet romance. This is the story of Ruth and Derek. I enjoyed riding the rollercoaster with them to finding lasting love. Great box set and I look forward to more stories from this author. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Ruth caught my attention immediately. I was drawn into the story. Love can develop quickly and I loved reading a story about that. So often it is upheld that it takes years to really know what you are looking for and longer to grab ahold.
This is a wonderful collection of stories about letting go and giving love a chance. Follow them as they dip their toe into falling in love with another
