I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

In this delightful narrative, we follow Daisy, our heroine, as she prepares to launch a small coffee shop on her narrowboat moored at Wildflower Lock. As expected, smooth sailing isn’t on the agenda โ€“ Daisy seems to have an unfortunate streak of luck. Fortunately, she’s surrounded by a supportive circle, including her mom, two best friends, and the charming Theo from the neighboring boat. The plot thickens when a new man enters her life, raising questions about whether he’ll be a helpful ally or a disruptive force. To uncover the outcome, you’ll have to give it a read.

The book offers a heartwarming tale set in a charming environment, providing ample room for mishaps, mayhem, and, of course, romance. The author’s approachable writing style makes it an easy and engaging read, perfect for those moments when you want to unwind. While I couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Daisy, given her seemingly endless string of misfortune, I also wished she would take more control of her life and decisions. “Toughen up, Daisy; you’re capable of more than you think.”

Overall, I found this book to be an enjoyable romantic story with an endearing setting, delightful characters, and an entertaining plot that kept me hooked until the end. Readers familiar with the first book will likely be eager to catch up on Daisy’s latest adventures aboard the September Rose. For newcomers it serves as a compelling introduction, sparking curiosity about Daisyโ€™s journey leading up to this point and what lies ahead.

Holly Lorena Cain, formerly known as Georgina Lorena Cain, was well acquainted with rock bottom. Sheโ€™s coasted along its rocky shores for years. It all started when her mother left her when she was barely old enough to understand. For years, her and her dad struggled to make ends meet. A dying cattle farm canโ€™t run itself, and with her dad having cancer, it got harder and harder to hang on to land thatโ€™s been in her family for generations.

Just as she thinks that sheโ€™s finally made it, her father passes away and leaves every single thing he owns to their neighbor. The man thatโ€™d been worming his way into her fatherโ€™s good graces while sheโ€™d been away pursuing higher education.

But she canโ€™t be mad.

Being mad would mean that she has a soul left, but she sold that a long time ago to pay for college.

Once she comes to terms with her father and the land being gone, she moves back to Bear Pass and with one thing on her mindโ€”avoid Denver at all costs. He can never know just how much it hurt that he stole her life away from her.

Only, he makes it impossibly hard to stay away.

Heโ€™s there around every corner. He offers her a place to stay. Makes sure she has a place to work. Fixes her car. Saves her from a kidnapper. Oh, and gives her everything her heart desires.

She stays away as best as she can, but she doesnโ€™t stand a chance against Denverโ€™s determination and charm. Heโ€™s there when no one else is, peeling her off the floor and propping her back up again each time she falls.

The gruff motorcycle club president with his scary glares and harsh work ethic has decided to make her his, and he wonโ€™t stand for her refusal.

Heโ€™s been protecting her for her entire life, and she doesnโ€™t even know it.

He wonโ€™t stop now, even if sheโ€™s bound and determined to stay away.
