Heron's Landing Book Review

I got this book after the second book but I decided to review it first so that they would be in order for the series.  Herons Landing: A Small-Town Romance (Honeymoon Harbor) by JoAnn Ross is the second book in the Honeymoon Harbor series.  I got the first book free at the library so I decided to try it and see if I liked the series and I did so I got this one out of the library to check the rest of the series out.

Welcome to Honeymoon Harbor, the brand-new, long-awaited series by beloved New York Times bestselling author JoAnn Ross, where unforgettable characters come face-to-face with the kind of love that grabs your heart and never lets go.

Working as a Las Vegas concierge, Brianna Mannion is an expert at making other people’s wishes come true. It’s satisfying work, but a visit home to scenic Honeymoon Harbor turns into a permanent stay when she’s reminded of everything she’s missing: the idyllic small-town charm; the old Victorian house she’d always coveted; and Seth Harper, her best friend’s widower and the neighborhood boy she once crushed on—hard. After years spent serving others, maybe Brianna’s finally ready to chase dreams of her own.

Since losing his wife, Seth has kept busy running the Harper family’s renovation business and flying way under the social radar. But when Brianna hires him to convert her aging dream home into a romantic B and B, working together presents a heart-stopping temptation Seth never saw coming. With guilt and grief his only companions for so long, he’ll have to step out of the past long enough to recognize the beautiful life Brianna and he could build together.

Brianna Mannion gets fed up with the life that she was leading taking care of rich gamblers at all the great casinos.  She quits her job and moves home to Honeymoon Harbor.  When she is planning on leaving and packing everything up, she looks online and sees that the house that she always wanted as a child is available for sale.  She decides to follow her dream and open and Bed and Breakfast at the house.  She makes plans while driving across the country and comes up with tons of plans and her mind firmly set on getting this house and staying in her home town.  She is quickly greeted by friends as soon as she gets to town and she gets to see the house.  She finds out that it is owned by a friend of her's from school who she used to have a crush on growing up.  Seth ended up marrying her best friend and she wanted all the best for them but Seth's wife died during her military service.  Seth is still upset over the loss and having a hard time getting on with his life.  Brianna coming back to town brings up a lot of feelings that he didn't think that he could have again.  He was devoted to his wife and he is conflicted about these new feelings because he thinks that it is a betrayal to his wife.  Brianna and Seth go through a lot but you have to pick up the book to find out what happens with them and the Bed and Breakfast.  I know that you will love the small town and the great characters.  I was sad when I looked it up and there were only two books in the series but I am still hopeful that they will add more sometime.  Fingers crossed and hope you check out this two book series for yourself and enjoy it as much as I did.
