Settle in for an opposites attract, renovation-to-remember from RITA® award finalist Aurora Rey.

After years of hustling from one adjunct gig to another, Kathleen Kenney has finally hit the big time. Forget tenure, she’s got a best-selling novel under her belt. That means leaving the campus grind for rural Vermont, fixing up the old farmhouse of her dreams, and writing romance fiction from the comfort and quiet of her new home. She doesn’t believe in the happily-ever-afters they promise, but really, who does?

As the youngest member of the Barrow Brothers Construction team, Logan Barrow leaps at the opportunity to take lead on the Kenney job. It’s a chance to prove she can go beyond design and see a project through, from start to finish. Unfortunately, a flirtatious foible puts Kathleen on the defensive and leaves Logan scrambling to be taken seriously. Nothing goes as planned, and their meet-cute is a definite fixer-upper.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Aurora Rey is a college dean by day and a life coach and queer romance author the rest of the time, except when she’s cooking, baking, riding the tractor, or pining for goats. She grew up in a small town in south Louisiana, daydreaming about New England. She keeps a special place in her heart for the South, especially the food and the ways women are raised to be strong, even if they’re taught not to show it. After a brief dalliance with biochemistry, she completed both a B.A. and an M.A. in English.

She is the author of the queer contemporary romance novels featuring sapphic, butch/femme, and trans characters. She is the winner of a Golden Crown Literary Society award and has been a finalist for the Lambda Literary and RITA® awards, but she loves reader feedback the most. She lives in Ithaca, New York with her dogs and whatever wildlife has taken up residence in the pond.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Bones
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2024
This was a cute, fun read, but I didn't love it as much as I thought I would.

I have been excited for Logan's story since she was introduced in the fist book in this series. I will say I was not disappointed in Logan. I loved everything about the character. The only thing I did not like was how Kathleen acted. She was so rigid and set in her ways that all she did was hurt Logan over and over again. It became a little repetitive how amazing, caring, sweet, and gentle Logan was only to be met with Kathleen's insecurities and the hurt she kept inflicting.

For some reason I had a really difficult time connecting to Kathleen's character because of this. Logan on the other time I got immediately and loved every second of her story. Maybe it's because of my design background but I really wish she would have had a little bit of an easier time finding love.

Overall it was a good read. Not great, not bad, just good. I love Aurora Rey's writing and can't wait to see what is in store for the rest of the Barrow clan.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful read.
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2024
After years of being a professor on the go, Kathleen Kenney finally sold her first novel and with a contract from her publisher she’d finally be able to retire from teaching. Retiring was step one, now she just needed to find the perfect place to live. Luckly she found the home she wanted but lit still required some work. While work was being done she’d just stay at the small rental she’d found.
When she gets to her destination she finds she needs help right away so she calls the number of Barrow Brothers Construction asking for someone to come to her house and give her a timeline on how long the work would take. When Logan Barrow arrives they don’t seem to get along but as time goes by feelings for each other grow.
The number one reason Kathleen wanted to end things was the difference in their ages. Logan had no problem with their age difference. Ms Rey writes a good story, always but this one has a little more depth to it. I found myself unable to lay this one down until I’d finished. (Good thing I read fast so I didn’t miss any meals or sleep..ha!) Truly a very, very enjoyable read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Two Likable Characters and Well-Written Storyline
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2024
After writing two novels, one of which was a bestseller, Kathleen Kenney buys a house in rural Vermont. The house needs to be renovated and she hires Barrow Brothers Construction company to do the work. Logan Barrow is the project leader. While Kathleen knows she is attracted to Logan, there's a problem - there is a 20+ year difference between them - Logan doesn’t have a problem with the age difference.

Rey has created two likable characters and her secondary characters, like Maddie and Clover, are well-drawn as well. The story has angst to be certain, but it isn’t over-the-top nor heavy-handed and doesn’t run on for pages and pages because Rey is one of the best writers of controlled angst that makes sense and isn’t added seemingly to add words to the manuscript.

This is a fast read because the characters are so well written that readers will be loathed to put the book down - even to sleep. If you don’t like endless angst that makes the book saggy, then this book is for you.

My thanks to Bold Strokes Books for an eARC.
