Can Willow let go of her fears and begin living her life again, or will her issues get the better of her?
Willow Green is having a hard time of it. Losing her job at the beginning of the pandemic and her elderly grandmother’s ‘clinically vulnerable’ status have resulted in her becoming housebound. While her entrepreneurial, hard-working spirit and the knowledge passed down through generations of green witches in her family mean she has solved her employment problem, her fear of going out, of allowing the dreaded virus into the house she shares with her grandmother, is far from resolved. In fact, it seems worse than ever.
That is, until Joe Lane comes along. The handsome care worker turned delivery driver does Willow a favour, gaining her attention and reluctant admiration. He’s got plenty of baggage of his own, but he also has the skills and temperament to help her with her problem—and he really seems to care.
The question is, will she let him get close enough to try?
Available in eBook and paperback formats
My Review
Steamy and Heartfelt – 5 stars *****
This contemporary romance is both steamy and heartfelt. It takes place during what is now the ‘new normal’ for many households who are doing what they can to protect their clinically vulnerable loved ones from the Covid pandemic. Willow is devoted to her grandmother and is lucky enough to be able to work from home, drawing on her innate abilities inherent within her bloodline. Although safe from the virus within their home, their world and life experiences have shrunk considerably.
I loved how Willow’s meeting with Joe, a delivery driver, acts as a catalyst, offering up the possibility of changing their lives and his own for the better. The journey the couple embark on, egged on by Willow’s grandmother and the adorable cat Buttons, is a delightfully uplifting read; written sensitively, with humour and love and culminating in some sexy scenes. Yet can Willow overcome her fears of the outside world and learn to live again? And will Joe, a man with his own baggage, accept Willow and her grandmother’s special abilities?
I enjoyed Willow’s strength as she strives to overcome her fears and connect with Joe whilst continuing to protect her grandmother. Joe and Willow are perfect for each other, and I enjoyed how their relationship slowly blooms from friendship to something more.
All in all an uplifting, steamy and romantic read which references the impact of the pandemic on our lives and the importance of family, friendship and love.
