Reader's got an introduction to the Burlington family in Once Upon a Christmas Tree and met the recently single Lando Burlington, the eleventh duke of Oxfordshire. Valentine Nook, book one in the Valentine Nook Chronicles takes readers back to Lando's family seat Valentine Nook, Oxfordshire where love is impossible to escape and this time it was aiming for Lando's heart!
Lando Burlington was a man of many layers encased in a grumpy exterior. Part of his charm was his reluctance to show his softer side but when he did he was irresistible! Carrying the weight of his family's legacy on his shoulders Lando took his role as the head of his family and all that came with it seriously. Practical but caring, accompanied by good looks Lando had romance hero written all over him!
Just off an Oscar win actress Holiday Simpson was in need of a break and time to recharge. Beautiful with charisma to match Holiday was endearing and down to earth in a way not expected from her. Holiday's sunny disposition hid her insecurities but lit up every room she was in.
Despite Lando and Holiday's initial clash these two clicked and their sparks lit up this story! This couple was fun to watch fall in love. As they pushed each other's limits and shared a sweet bond their attraction felt genuine with the perfect amount of mess thrown in to muddy the waters and give them something to fight for. Great banter and heartfelt insight offered a well-rounded connection.
The secondary characters of this work played a big part in giving this story depth and were absolutely delightful! Ms. Moore captured the small town feel of Valentine Nook and gave readers a wonderful place to experience. Small town antics and overly familiar neighbors littered the pages of this story but only brought out the best possible feelings. From interfering and matchmaking family members to horses and goats this story was filled with great moments.
Lulu Moore's family and friend bonds are the kind that bring tears and smiles to readers. Wit and love go hand in hand in this writer's works bringing an abundance of sighs, laughs and the occasional eye roll. Everyone needs a Valentine Nook to fall in love with and book one in Lulu Moore's The Valentine Nook Chronicles is a great place to escape for a few hours of unadulterated romance!
