Grace Burrowes delivers a deeply romantic love story with
drama, humor and compassion in
KISS ME HELLO, the final book in the Sweetest
Kisses
series. I read the first two novels in this series and
sensed there was a bit of mystery about our hero Mackenzie
Knightley. I wondered why this shy man who was the
managing
partner of his family law firm wasn't married or in a
relationship. Something did not add up....what was Mac's
story?
Mac volunteers his time as a blacksmith shoeing horses at
a
therapeutic horse riding school for children. While at the
stables Mac offers to visit a nearby farm to check on a
pair of large horses who have mysteriously appeared on the
property. He meets Sidonie Lindstrom, the new owner of the
farm and her foster son Luis. Sidonie observes that Mac
recognizes the draft horses as calls them by name. The
horses, Daisy and Buttercup, are clearly pleased to see
Mac. Sid has moved to the country to start over. Her
brother died and she is tired of dealing with estate
attorneys.
As a foster mother, she has also grown weary of
lawyers and intrusions from members of the social services
department. Assuming that Mac is a full time farrier, Sid
mentions her dislike for legal matters several times to
him. Mac does not correct Sid's belief and this lie of
omission is a key piece of the storyline. How long can Mac
keep this secret from Sid? And how will she react when the
secret is revealed?
Kudos to author Grace Burrowes for writing a sensuous love
story about a couple in their mid -to late thirties. I
loved it when Sid turned the tables on Mac and kissed him
in a crowded restaurant. That kiss changed the game for
Sid
and Mac. Their relationship progressed from friendship to
love at a believable pace. Loved how Sid and Mac spent
time
together baking pies, brownies and quiches and planning
and
planting a vegetable garden.
Mac, Sid and Luis suffered disappointments in their lives
and were afraid to hope, trust and love. The last few
chapters of the book were emotional and tense. Secrets
were
revealed and there were several unexpected plot twists.
KISS ME HELLO is a well written story about love, family,
and
forgiveness which will warm your heart and make you
believe
that love triumphs over adversity every time.
In my opinion Grace Burrowes saved the best story for
last!
