Love At Last by Claudia ConnorMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
How many times can you be unlucky in love before you decide it’s not luck, it’s you?
Clare Franklin has been jilted and flies off on her honeymoon alone. One night she walks into a man, also alone and they share dinner.
Dr Deacon Montgomery is a veterinary surgeon, bringing up three year old twin daughters alone. Since his daughters were born he's had no inclination to date but Clare makes him laugh and think about a relationship for the first time in forever. It's a fantasy holiday romance ... until Deacon gets a call that changes everything.
I've read several books by Claudia Connor and enjoyed them all. They verge on the sweet but I have enjoyed them nonetheless. However, this one just didn't gel for me. I think Clare and Deacon are just too nice, neither of them has a single flaw. Also, I had the overwhelming feeling that this couple were interchangeable with some of her previous characters. Even the flowery descriptions of their love-making seemed like one cliche after another. Deacon's twins are unbearably cute and it was all just a bit too much.
Recommended for those who like sweet romances and too-good-to-be-true characters.
I received a free copy of this book from the author via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
