WOW guys!! Do you know what today is?! Thanks to my timehop I do!!
It is the day I got accepted to review for my FIRST EVER publisher...Tyndale!! Tyndale has been such a joy to work with...I've "met" so many fabulous authors, received incredible service from Tyndale themselves, and I've been able to donate some FABULOUS books to my Church library!!
To celebrate, I thought today would be the perfect day to post my review of Chance of Loving You. I got SO excited when I saw this book. Why? Three words. Susan.May.Warren. Ring a bell? That's because her book "When I fall in Love" was the first book I received and reviewed for Tyndale!!

Hook, Line & Sinker
by Susan May Warren
Grad student Abigail Cushman has agreed to enter Deep Haven’s annual fishing contest. She’s a quick learner, even if she doesn’t know the difference between a bass and a trout.

I've heard marvelous things about Terri Blackstock guys. So when I saw her name on the book, it's an understatement to say I was excited. I.LOVED.IT. Seriously, I need to have a Terri Blackstock marathon if any of her other books are like this one!! I loved the speed of the story-steady- and the characters caught my heart immediately! It's a new favorite. The writing style is superb and I wouldn't change a thing! Their back and forth banter never ceased to make me laugh at their silliness and I was fascinated with their pending relationship from the very beginning!

I have loved Candace's story lines ever since the first book of hers that I got for free. The way she speaks about her profession throughout her books shows a level of her heart few authors dare to go. The characters always have a level of complexity without being a deep read and her writing keeps me captivated the whole time. This one was no exception!! Aimee's selflessness in the end of the book-and Lucas'- made me love her more and Lucas' care of his beloved grandmother melted my heart. If you're looking for a light read that still has some depth, you can stop looking!
Hook, Line & Sinker

Guys, you KNOW I love Susan!! Her Christiansen family series is still my favorite but this one now has it's place in my heart as well!! Susan's writing is awesome, as usual, and I loved the story line. Their relationship wasn't forced but was very real and I was "hooked" from the beginning! Both characters had their own things to work through as Susan's characters always do but they trust God to help them through with some romance along the way. My kind of story!!
