I have never read a Cindy Stark novel before, but I’m glad I read CRAZY ONE MORE TIME! What a beautiful story! I’m very excited to read her previous books now. This absorbing story combines both the beautiful sensory details of a charming small town town with heartfelt characters, a moving plot, and a story with so much depth. CRAZY ONE MORE TIME is a suspenseful read with characters I rooted for, and some lovely sensory details that brought the town of Aspen to life. I highly recommend this story if you need a complete escape from life.
CRAZY ONE MORE TIME explores family dynamics, loss, secrets, and a new romance. Cindy Stark handles difficult topics and has the reader cheering for everyone to succeed. When I started reading CRAZY ONE MORE TIME, I didn’t know I’d come to love it this much. Where to start? Afton is such a great character, full of life and warmth. I loved how she didn’t let her past troubles destroy her completely. Her decision to help her grandfather open up a distillery is a turning point in her life. I am so happy that she made this choice. She grew and learned a lot about herself and life itself while doing this. The interactions between all the characters in this small town, where everyone knows everyone else, are vividly told and enjoyable to read. Love, hope, second chances, and the importance of community are the threads that bind this book together beautifully.
CRAZY ONE MORE TIME also brings Corey back into Afton's life. She and Corey spent one night together after graduating high school. One night, that's it, and then they went their separate ways. Now Afton and her grandfather are going to the town council to get their plans approved for the distillery and Corey is on the council.
I don’t want to say too much for fear of giving away too much, but once I started reading this beautiful and heartbreaking story, I could not stop! Everyone should have this unforgettable book on their fall reading list. The dialogue between Corey and Afton is sometimes funny and other times frustrating! They both have secrets and without letting them out, they will not be able to move forward. I was instantly emotionally invested in all of the characters from page one and I can not wait to read more by this wonderful and heart-tugging author.
In a small town where only some play by the rules, Afton dreams of opening a legitimate whiskey distillery alongside her renegade grandpa. But lurking in the shadows is a vindictive mayor, hell-bent on crushing their ambitions.
To complicate matters further, Afton recognizes that one of the city council members with the power to decide their fate is the very man she shared a reckless night of teenage passion with—the one who never called. Now, she must reconcile the boy from her past with the irresistible, accomplished man who constantly crosses her path.
For Corey, it’s a collision of past regrets and a burning desire for redemption. He sacrificed love for duty, adhering to his family’s expectations. But when destiny reunites him with Afton, he vows to break free from the shackles of tradition. Standing against the old boys’ club, he risks it all for a chance to prove his unwavering love.
In a world where the lines between right and wrong blur, they both find themselves at a crossroads. If they want a chance at love, they’ll need to let go of conventions and follow their hearts, even when it defies reason. Prepare to be swept away by this tender and heartwarming small town second chance romance, where love rekindles, dreams come alive, and passion reignites against all odds.
