Recent Reads - Dogwood Days by Poppy Dennison

First, let me just say how much I love this cover. The colors, the look, and especially the cover model. He's just an absolute perfect fit for Jefferson Lee. Now I'm a sucker for small town romances, not to mention stories with tasty food. The moment I finished reading I was in dire need of some homemade peach cobbler. I very quickly fell in love with Holly Creek and its inhabitants. Everyone had their own distinct voice and personality. I could see this playing out like a movie in my head. There's so much life in this little town. The residents are just a hoot, and Sheriff Zane, oh, *fans self* he's a tall drink of yum.  He's also strong, sweet, dependable, and an all around genuinely good guy. Jefferson Lee made me laugh. His banter with his uncle and his childhood friend Clover was so much fun. This a sweet, feelgood read with wonderful characters that I can't wait to see more of.

<3 Happy reading!

Small town heroes and big town hearts.

Jefferson Lee Davis is happy with his life in the city until his favorite uncle has a bad fall and he rushes to Holly Creek to make sure Uncle Sherman is okay. Jefferson Lee knows how to navigate small Southern town’s politics and the residents greet him with open arms. Everyone but the town’s sheriff, Zane Yarbrough, that is.

Dogwood Days, the town’s biggest festival is looming, so Jefferson has to step up and take over his uncle’s job as the town blogger, even if that puts him right in the sheriff’s path. Quirky neighbors, meddling family, and a sassy best friend all come together to make Jefferson Lee’s life in Holly Creek a full-time adventure. When he loses his job back in the city, Jefferson Lee has to start a new job search that will take him away from the town he’s learning to think of as home. Will this big city boy find sweet romance in the arms of a small town sheriff or will the allure of the city call him back?
