Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆
A sweet, small town romance.
The Orchard Inn is Ella's safe haven. The place that became her sanctuary at the darkest time in her life. Her past is not a pretty one and it still haunts her. She keeps men at arms length and her heart locked up tight. When River stays at the inn, Ella struggles with the pull and attraction she feels towards him and tries to keep her distance. River has other ideas as he is not willing to give up on such a pure connection.
River is the complete opposite to what Ella has experienced in the past and is just what she needs. With the right push from her friends, Ella might just open her heart again. Small town stories produce characters that are usually larger than life and being so much more to the books they are in. The fact that everyone knows everyone makes it feel like a community and you become connected to all the characters and the town, which keeps you coming back for more.
This was a really enjoyable read that had me laughing and crying and everything in between.

Excerpt
River swallowed the bite of pizza and turned his head to
look into Ella’s eyes. He wanted to ask her how she had learned the obvious
tough lessons in her life. What was it that made her keep him at arm’s length?
He could tell she was attracted to him as well, but something held her back.
He lowered his face towards her slightly and she bit her
lip. He had a sudden urge to kiss her and taste her. He saw her eyes glanced
down at his mouth, and felt a pull towards her. He glanced at the throbbing
vein in her neck and saw her heart was racing just as fast as his. Ella’s
closeness flooded his body with heat. Her closeness was making it hard to think
clearly.
