Sam DeLuca never planned to show up in the country town of Misty Bottoms in the middle of the night. But that is exactly where he finds himself - staring at the dilapidated shell of what used to be his Great Aunt's home, that was now his. A New York City Detective, Sam hopes to find solitude here, to try and recover from a haunting ordeal that has left him physically and emotionally drained. He hopes that working on the house to get it ready for resale, will help him figure it all out. But when his sweet, sexy neighbour, Cricket, draws him out of the darkness, sparks are sure to fly. Cricket O'Malley has returned to Misty Bottoms to fulfill her dreams of owning her own flower shop. Loving small-town country life, everything seems to be slotting nicely into place. Until she sets eyes on her dark, brooding neighbour. As friendship blooms into red hot attraction Cricket knows that she wants this man forever, but Sam is determined to shut her out and go back to New York. With nosy villagers, true friendships, jealousy, and sizzling emotions, can Cricket convince Sam to stay so they can fight his demons together?  EVERY BRIDE HAS HER DAY by Lynnette Austin is a romance that has it all! Sam is struggling to cope with what has happened in the past, and is determined to block Cricket out and leave Misty Bottoms behind him, and I really felt for him as he struggled to trust his own judgement. Cricket is feisty, strong and really loveable, and I love a character that isn't afraid to say what she wants. Throw in a beautiful town with so many interesting and unique characters, and this story is a winner. Part of the Magnolia Brides series, I cannot wait for more from this author. EVERY BRIDE HAS HER DAY by Lynnette Austin is a beautifully written tale of romance, friendship and learning to trust, and I highly recommend it.

SUMMARY

CAN LOVE REVIVE A WILTING HEART? Cricket O’Malley can’t wait to plant roots back home in Georgia, where she’s returned to restore an abandoned flower shop to its former glory. The only blemish? Her neighbor’s house is even more neglected than her old flower shop, and its occupant seems as surly as he is darkly handsome. Devastated body and soul after a tough case went south, New York City detective Sam DeLuca thought he’d have no trouble finding solitude in the quiet Georgia town of Misty Bottoms, but his bubbly neighbor seems determined to shine happiness into Sam’s life. Sam is equally determined to close himself off, but his heart says otherwise…
