[⚜️XAR the Bookwyrm · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a short and sweet inspirational read. Faith features heavily in this title and impacts some of the character's reactions. That being said, I found the characters very realistic and touching!

Lane really put me off, though. I get why he acted the way he did, even identified with a good bit of his thought processes, but he didn't seem to understand that what he was doing could harm others.

Callie was so much like me, I couldn't believe it! I really enjoyed her character quite a bit. In fact, most of the girls in her life were really interesting and I wanted to read more about them!

All things said and done, I enjoyed this story, and would like to see more of the characters!

I chose this book because its about a library and librarian in Wyoming, in a made up town name near Lusk, WY. It was cute and learned some things. Some of the romance I thought was unrealistic.

While this story was a bit rough around the edges. Over all it was a cute, light read. Some interesting, quirky, characters and a sweet love story.

The setting of the library in an old mansion. The glass window in the door that looks out to the Main Street, the conservatory, sounds delightful. With coke like glasses, she dreams when a new guy comes into town. His search is for small town in American, staying three months. Of who he is is a mystery, she doesn’t see a wedding band, and is curious. Will he tell his secrets, and be willing to stay. Enjoyable to read.

LOVE the lightness of this story. The books. The faith. The political issues. The writing.
