OrangeReviewStarNeeding to get away from the hustle and bustle of Philadelphia and an unfaithful ex, Andie Patterson relocates to Holloway, WV, to manage the Mountain View Resort, owned by her friend Lila. Wanting to make sure everything is running smoothly, Lila and her fiancé send Thomas Nurseries' employee Travis Yardley to check on Andie. Travis is shocked to learn that not only is Andie a woman but one with attitude and curves in all the right places. Andie is equally smitten with the sexy and hardworking Travis but refuses to give in to her impulses as Travis is ten years her junior. Age isn't an issue for Travis, and he plans to persuade Andie he is just the man for her. Unfortunately, Travis's troubled upbringing comes back to haunt him, and Andie's best intentions might put a roadblock in the middle of their promising relationship.
VERDICT Flirty and cheerful, this latest from Dimon (We'll Be Home for Christmas; Lean on Me) is chock-full of endearing characters and yearning desire. Though readers will be disappointed that this isn't a full-length novel, they can hope that there are more Holloway romances from Dimon in the future.
