Publisher's summary

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia London comes a sexy and fun new entry in the charming Lake Haven series.

When her unicorn dreams collide with his mulish plans, the battle for the heart and soul of a quaint Victorian inn begins...

Jenny Turner needs to get her life together. She knows it, everyone knows it, and she’s going to do it. Soon. But one night when she catches her sometimes “boyfriend” cheating on her in the middle of a summer camping trip, she winds up at a quaint inn on the north shore of Lake Haven that is closed. This presents a problem. She can’t go home - her dad has a new woman in his life and doesn’t need Jenny’s help anymore. She can’t go to her friends - they are too eager to hook Jenny up with a job. With no place else to go, Jenny must convince the gruff but very hot innkeeper - who is wearing a kilt for some reason - to let her a stay a night...or ten.

Edan Mackenzie is closing up shop and going home to Scotland. He came to America a few years ago to help a favorite aunt with her inn and to see part of the world. But he ended up working so much he saw nothing, his aunt died, his girlfriend left him, and suddenly, the usually pragmatic Edan doesn’t know who he was or what he’s doing with his life anymore. He’s come up with a firm plan and specific goals and has no patience for those who don’t do the same. But then a woman with shining blue eyes and long legs walks right past his CLOSED sign and into his life, and clearly has no idea what she’s doing.

At first, Edan is mystified. But then he notices that chatty Jenny is starting to make sense in a weird way, and maybe her plans for getting her life together are perhaps better than his, and maybe this pretty, daffy woman is exactly what Edan needed all along. Just maybe, two people struggling to figure out where life will take them stumble into each other in the right cozy inn at the right time...

Ok

This was definitely my least favorite of the series. The plot was okay, but the story fell short of captivating my attention and interest in their love story. I just didn’t FEEL it. I think part of it was me not finding the male accent very appealing. I don’t have anything against Scottish accents and maybe it was the fact that it was a female doing the male voice (which I don’t have a problem with usually). It just wasn’t sexy, I guess.

Enjoyed This Book

Who doesn’t love a quiet kilt wearing Scot and a talkative American. I liked this book although when it was finished and I reflected on the characters, I decided there was a lot…lacking. I think I needed more background about some of the secondary friends who popped up in the story. While I totally enjoyed Jenny, I didn’t like her friends, Brooke and Vanessa at all. Not even a little. I loved Eden and really liked Eden’s friends but knew almost nothing about them. The rest of the characters were, forgettable at best. But, this was an easy, sweet read,
