Blueberry Point Romance Collection by D.E. Malone Review

 Happy Monday Friends :)

I pray today finds you all doing well, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess.

I have to say that I'm not exactly having the greatest day. Someone who I used to consider a friend hurt my husband and I pretty badly over the weekend, and while I'm definitely not going to go into detail, I am going to say that sometimes it's really hard to turn the other cheek in these type of situations. I'm so thankful for the Lord's help in doing so, cause on my strength I'm pretty sure I'd never be able to do so.

One of my favorite ways to get through these kind of tough times is by diving into great books, and then getting to share about those books with you all.

I recently had a chance to finish a novella collection from a series I love, and today I can't wait to tell you all about it.

My Review:

The Blueberry Point Romance series has become one of my favorites over the last couple of years, and I was really looking forward to reading more stories set within it. This heartwarming and sweet collection of clean novellas was such a fun treat, and I loved getting another visit back to the beautiful Blueberry Point Lodge.

Each story was well done and beautifully developed, especially when taking the much shorter novella word counts into consideration. I really enjoyed getting glimpses of previous characters, and also, how each story is set during a differing season, as I thought that added an extra fun element to this lovely bind up.

While there was definitely something to love about each and every story, my personal favorites ended up being Love, Lies and Fireflies and Promise Me October. Both kept me engaged right throughout, and both I ended up finishing in one sitting. I loved getting the glimpses into the renovation process of Blueberry Point Lodge in the former, and I loved how the title comes into play in the latter. I also thought both of these romances were adorable and swoon worthy, and definitely had me rooting for the couples in the end.

I've been a big fan of this series right from reading the first title, and I loved how this collection included all of the elements that have truly made this series stand out for me. A beautiful setting, well written and witty prose, lovely characters, and heartwarming clean romances round out this collection, and I think it's a wonderful addition to the series.

Final Rating: 4/5.

I can't recommend it and the entire Blueberry Point Romance series enough!

Thanks so much to the author for providing me with a copy to read and review!

I received a complimentary advanced reader copy of this novel from the author in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to give a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Thanks so much for reading guys! I hope you all have a great rest of your day :)

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often.
