Wild at Heart by Zoe YorkMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Will Kincaid is a model citizen. Head teacher at the local school, former volunteer firefighter, current Search and Rescue (SAR) volunteer, he's the guy that everyone likes, except one, Catie Berton. He can't believe he offered to be in the Batchelor Auction Catie was organising and she turned him down, because he didn't fit the demographic, and he's been nursing the hurt ever since.
Catie is the local hairdresser and estate agent (because Pine Harbour really is that small), she has a love-hate relationship with both Will and Pine Harbour. She thinks he's a stick-in-the-mud who shoots down all her ideas, he's universally adored while she and her mother were the subjects of town gossip. It doesn't help that she also has a massive crush on him!
Catie is keen to try new things and face her fears. so volunteering for SAR sounds like a great idea, if only it didn't mean she has to run the gauntlet of Will's disapproval every week.
Catie and Will might think they are complete opposites but deep down they are more alike than they imagine.
This book is exactly what you would expect of a small-town enemies to lovers romance between the headteacher of the local school and the sole hairdresser. Cute, cosy. wholesome and a bit boring. Honestly I read this and then had to reread the last two chapters in order to write a review because I couldn't remember whether I had actually finished the book! As they say, it's not the book, it's me because this is exactly what I was expecting/dreading so shame on me for requesting a book that I was already conflicted over.
Recommended for those who like wholesome small-town enemies to lovers romances.
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
