The Daisy Chain Flower Shop

Dream Harbor is so cute and lovely and I love getting to read every new book in the series. The Daisy Chain Flower Shop features Daisy, flower shop owner and newcomer to town, Elliot. After the mayor has a vision of a storm cloud above Daisy's flower shop and three couples who used Daisy to make their wedding floral arrangements have split up, the town of Dream Harbor has decided that the Daisy Chain Flower Shop is cursed and business practically dries up. Desperate for newcomers, Daisy decides that a fake relationship might be the thing to turn her business around. They'll never actually develop feelings for each other... right? Fake dating is probably my least favorite romance trope, but whatever, it's fine. Not my favorite in the series, but it's cute, quick, and fun. I'm interested to see who the next couple will be, it's shaping up to be Elliot's brother and the town vet!

The Gingerbread Bakery

Finally! I have been waiting for Annie and Mac to get together for forever and I am thrilled they finally got to have their moment. It was a little lackluster in my opinion and Annie was WAAAY to unwilling to talk about what happened in their youth. They could have gotten back together like three years ago, but she is the most stubborn person on the planet. Annie and Mac had one magical Christmas together when they were 19 and then he went and ruined it all and left Dream Harbor. Annie has never forgiven him and he won't give up on proving that he is more than his worst mistake. It's a second chance romance set during Christmas. It's cute and emotional but I really was over Annie. Just listen to the hunk already! Cute, cheesy, slightly spice. Give me the next one already!

The Strawberry Patch Pancake House

This series continues to be fun and adorable. The fourth book in the Dream Harbor series focuses on Iris, a flighty and fun job hopping diva that can't seem to commit and Archer, a world travelling chef who has just received some world changing news. Archer just discovered that he is the father to a precious five year old girl he never knew existed. When her mother is tragically killed in an accident he is found listed on the birth certificate. He drops everything to fly into Dream Harbor and meet his daughter. In order to get custody he has to live in town so he quits his fancy culinary job to become a small time diner cook and a full time dad. He hired Iris to be his live in nanny while he figures things out and boy are sparks flying between the two. They better both figure out what they really want though because they don't need to mess with Archer's daughter's heart. Charming single dad romance. Loved it! 

The Christmas Tree Farm

Super quick and fluffy seasonal read. I finished this in one day. A grumpy meet cute about second chances and improving oneself. Kira North buys a Christmas tree farm sight unseen because she was influenced by people homesteading on social media. She finds out it is a lot more work then she anticipated and is loathe to ask for help. She wants to fix everything herself and in waltzes Bennet, an out of towner who loves a damsel in distress. It's hardly love at first sight, but she adores his dogs and he admires his gumption. The two find themselves thrown together time and again. Maybe a Christmas miracle will give them what they both want? Fluffy, steamy, and charming. Give me more! 

The Cinnamon Bun Book Store

Cute, a light romance with a little bit of steam. This is the second in the series but could easily be read as a standalone. Set in the charming town of Dream Harbor, this romance features, you guessed it, a bookseller, and a tour guide. Hazel is getting ready to turn 30 and she hasn't done much with her life. She follows the rules to a T and hasn't lived much. When weird clues start showing up at the bookstore she decides to follow them and in the process recruits the sexy boat guy. Maybe this summer will be fun after all? Noah is known as a player and he doesn't date locals, but he really starts to fall for prim and proper Hazel, too bad she thinks what they have is just a summer fling. Full of misunderstandings and second chances. This was a cute follow up and I think I enjoyed it even more than the first one in the series!

The Pumpkin Spice Cafe

Cute and fluffy - although not nearly as steamy as TikTok led me to believe. This is like a PG-13 Hallmark movie (ok maybe rated R in a few parts) about a big city girl who moves to a cute and cozy little town and falls in love with a hunky farmer in flannel.... And that's it. That's the whole story, lol. There is more nuance than that and clearly some of the characters mentioned will be getting their own books. It's fun and a super, easy, and quick read. I'll definitely check out the rest in the series!
