Old Pine Cove: The Complete Series
All THREE novels from the romantic comedy series Old Pine Cove in one great collection.
Snowflakes and Sparks
A new-in-town bookstore owner is in for a surprise when she meets her neighbor… the gorgeous guy she shared her first kiss with ten years ago!
Old Pine Cove is the one place on earth Suzie swore she’d never return to, but then her boss asks her to manage one of their bookstores there. Since it’s only temporary, she agrees. Besides, what could possibly go wrong?
Gosh, how naïve of her.
Alex Denverton opening the door with that smoldering look of his, that’s what could go wrong. It’s been ten years since she broke his car and his heart. How is she supposed to focus on work knowing he’s right next door? And why did she ever agree to organize the annual Winter Walk with him?
One thing is certain, though. If Suzie wants to have a magical Christmas, she can’t ask Santa to make it happen. It’s up to her to go big or go home.
Love to Prove You Wrong
Hating the guy who ruined her confidence would be a lot easier if he wasn’t so freaking sexy.
For Addy, small-town life is just perfect. She’s about to expand her inn with ten new rooms and a petting zoo, and she’s helping the mayor’s son organize his wedding. If only her pet duck would stop escaping all the time, her days would be an absolute breeze.
But then Justin Miller shows up at Addy’s check-in desk. The guy went from small-town stud to lead actor in a popular series, and he’s behaving exactly like the celebrity he is. Smug grins, dimples to die for, and hordes of women chasing him all over town.
Addy has no intention of letting him in her life again—not after what happened in high school. So what if he keeps trying to prove he’s changed? No amount of helicopter rides and intimate outings will change the Miller is nothing but trouble.
In For a Treat
She’s a down-on-her-luck dog walker, he’s the new vet in town who offers her a great job. They’d be perfect for each other, but the hot new vet has one never date a coworker...
Olive’s small-town life is crumbling as fast as an expired dog treat. Her side business is facing some fierce competition from a stuck-up dog walker and her part-time job as a barista hardly pays enough to cover the rent. Moving back home is out of the question, since her parents have turned her old bedroom into an exclusive hamster hotel.
For veterinarian Lewis, moving to Old Pine Cove with his dog Archie is the fresh start he’s been craving. He’s convinced breathing new life into the animal clinic will help him forget the big mess he left behind in Britain.
But then an accident lands Olive a job at his clinic, and before long, they’re stealing dreamy glances at each other over the treatment table.
Too bad true-to-his-word Lewis has sworn never to date an employee again…

This is the complete Old Pine Cove Series. The books in the series are: Snowflakes and Sparks, Love to Prove You Wrong, and In for A Treat. These books were witty, entertaining, heartfelt reads. This collection a clean, sweet collection of stories. I generally read books that have a lot of kick to them but these stories were fun and I never really missed having the bedroom scenes. If you like clean romances, quirky small towns, a town drama queen, a few people who are pretty much eye rollingly insane and books that can make you laugh grab this collection.
Book 1, Snowflakes and Sparks:
Suzie is back in Old Pine Cove 10 years after her memorable first visit where she managed to wreck a truck load of snow globes trying to impress a boy. She then dumps said boy with a letter. Now Suzie is back to temporarily run the bookshop the company she works for owns until they find a permanent replacement. No one will remember her right, famous last words. To top it off not only is she known as the ruiner of Christmas, the boy from 10 years ago lives next door. Could this be their second chance?
Book 2, Love to Prove You Wrong:
Addy runs the Inn in town. She's currently dealing with Diane the town drama queen and resident bully. Diane is helping plan her grandson Asher's wedding and driving Addy crazy in the process. Justin is an actor/celebrity who grew up in Old Pine Cove. He's home for Asher’s wedding and staying at the Inn. He also happens to be the person who bullied Addy for the last two years of high school. Needless to say, Addy still remembers and hate Justin for it. Can Justin convince Addy he's changed?
Book 3, In for a Treat:
Olive is a barista at the local coffee shop, a dog walker, and the local "weird" girl. Lewis is the new vet in town. He's British and all anyone can talk about. Lewis is getting over a major heartbreak but feels drawn to Olive. When Olive needs a new job, Lewis hires her as his temp receptionist. Will they let Olive being an employee keep them from dating?

Táto séria patrí medzi moje obľúbené. Začalo to stiahnutím kníh do čítačky, skončilo to ich nákupom :)
Veľmi sa mi páči štýl autorky. Je svieži, vtipný, romantický a má úžasnú schopnosť vytvárať postavy, ktoré sú realistické. Všetky 3 knihy vám vyčaria úsmev na tvári :)
Snowflakes and Sparks - ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫/5
Bolo to naozaj príjemné romantické, vianočné čítanie. Ide o second chance romance a dej sa sústreďuje okolo Suzie a Alexa, ktorí sa znova stretávajú po 10tich rokoch. Suzie musí čeliť svojej minulosti v mestečku Old Pine Cove a chlapcovi (teraz už mužovi), do ktorého sa bezhlavo zaľúbila, ale musela pred ním kvôli trápnej udalosti utiecť.
Dokážu pochovať minulosť? Odpustia jej obyvatelia Old Pine Cove, čo pred rokmi ako tínedžerka vyviedla?
Veľmi sa mi páčilo ako autorka oživila postavy, s ktorými sa človek veľmi ľahko stotožní. Prostredie Old Pine Cove bolo najmalebnejšie a najkrajšie a mala som chuť sa zbaliť a vyraziť tam.
Písanie bolo pútavé a tempo/rýchlosť deja dobrý.
Love to Prove You Wrong - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
Krásny, zábavný, romantický príbeh, ktorý som dala na jedno posedenie. Príbeh Addy a Justina, o druhej šanci, popieraní a nesprávnych úsudkoch.
Addy je manažérka malého hotela a snaží sa zabezpečiť jeho plynulý chod. Najväčšou udalosťou má byť svadba, na ktorej sa má zúčastniť aj jej úhlavný nepriateľ Justin. Človek, ktorý ju trápil svojími rečami o jej vtedajšej nadváhe a z ktorého je dnes celebrita, ktorú každý miluje.
Dokáže jej Justin, že sa zmenil? Dokáže Addy prekonať svoju nenávisť a dať mu druhú šancu?
In For a Treat - ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫/5
Bolo to zábavné, milé, romantické čítanie. Príbeh Olive a Lewisa medzi ktorými je okamžite spojenie, iskry lietali už hneď po prvom stretnutí.
Olive nezarába veľa, robí však všetko preto aby sa uživila.
Lewis je nový veterinár v meste, ktorý potrebuje na klinike výpomoc. Prácu ponúkne Olive, ktorá ju prijíma. Má však jedno pravidlo, nerandiť so zamestnancami.
Ako to napokon dopadne?

Delightful Romantic Collection
This is the first book I have read by this author, and I am so glad to have done so through this delightful collection of small-town romance novellas. I enjoyed every one of these sweet reads. The author has a breezy conversational writing style that makes for easy, pleasant reading. You will find familiar tropes here—second chance at romance, enemies to lovers, and a taboo relationship between a boss and worker—but the author’s writing style is so smooth that I didn't mind retreading familiar ground. She does not fall into the trap of the notorious, universally reviled info dump. She jumps right into the story and gets us caring about the characters fast. I think I was most charmed by the last book in the collection, but I'm always a sucker for a British hero. If you enjoy small-town romance as I do, you may well enjoy this collection as much as I did.
I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

Sweet reads, quirky small town, fun animals
Light, sweet reads to curl up with a hot cup of tea on a rainy day.
And this three-books-in-one collection is totally satisfying, with sweet gals and swoony male leads. Especially enjoy the small town quirky characters, and the guest appearances of various animals. My favourites being Duckota the escape artist Duck in "Love to Prove you Wrong"; and Drake the Imaginary Dragon in "In for A Treat".
Robbins make her characters, real or imaginary, come alive in her writing.

Three stories of unexpected steamy romance. A library manager gets into it with the guy next door. Owner of an Inn finds an old boyfriend has returned, now a star. A dog walker/barista ends up working with a new veterinarian. The characters are well suited for their situations. The romance is steamy and uncontrollable. Great endings that will make you smile.

This series is not only beautiful, but very heart warming. Simple people, simple lives and simple problems. The best part about this series was lack of high level dramatics and over the top situations.
