MY THOUGHTS:

Author:  Elana Johnson
Series:  Hilton Head Island #1
Publisher:  AEJ Creative Works
Genre:   Romance
Format:  Kindle ARC
No. of Pages:   268

My Rating:   5 Stars

Bea is newly divorced with three adult children. She creates a bucket list, which she quickly renames as a love list. This love list is for all the things she wants to do with her life.

Things are not going to be easy, but Bea has a fabulous attitude about all the changes she plans on making in her life. More than the wonderful friends she has in her life, friends who are the ride or die type, Bea finds that she has a second chance at love when it comes to Grant. He is a wonderful man and the time he and Bea spend together are full of warm moments and a connection neither is able to deny.

All of the characters in this book are marvelous. Obviously we have Bea and Grant, but some of her dear friends, Lauren, Joy, Sage and other wonderful women whom epitomize the true meaning of friendship. 

What an uplifting book for these perilous times that we live in. What I loved most about Bea is that in one way she reminds me of myself - she has a glass half full attitude and that makes her utterly loveable as well as relatable.

Many thanks to AEJ Creative Works and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
