BLURB ➞
If my time with Ryan Miller were a hit track on the radio, I imagine the lyrics would go something like this…
“We’re so different, but they say opposites attract. Oops, I’ve fallen, and my heart doesn’t want to come back.”
But, holy bingo night, is my attraction to the sexy, broody businessman so much more complicated than the chorus of a song.
His dad lives right next to my mom, and after the two of them suffered an unexplained accident while taking down holiday decorations, both Ryan and I were forced to become the only thirtysomething residents of Sunny Creek Village Independent Senior Living Community.
Temporarily moving in might seem like overkill for a fractured tailbone and a severely pulled groin muscle, but believe me, when your mom is as wild as mine and your dad is as cantankerous as Ryan’s, they need supervision to ensure they stick to doctor’s orders.
Constantly thrown together by the antics of our crazy parents and the tough-as-nails community enforcer, Betty Matthews, Ryan and I formed an alliance for the sole purpose of survival.
But I never expected to be so interested in finding out what he was hiding beneath his grumpy, serious demeanor. More than that, I never dreamed what I found would be the kind of man women sell their souls to the devil for.
Unfortunately, our little one-hit wonder on the airwaves has more to say before it comes to an end.
Although, finishing the outro to this song is a real doozy…
Tell me…what lyric rhymes with Oops, I’ve fallen for my future stepbrother?
We’re each other’s opposites, aren’t we? I’m wild and impulsive, and you’re uptight and neurotic.
ARC REVIEW ➞
Carly is a ski instructor, so when her mom breaks her tailbone during the off season she heads to live with her temporarily in her retirement community. Ryan is an Insurance VP who has to take some time away from his busy New York life to take care of his father who injured himself. Little do they know that spending time in Sunny Creek where take her on some different adventures.
Carly and Ryan are complete opposites. Carly is more of a go with the flow, a type B personality. Ryan likes things to be scheduled, he likes plans, a type A personality. However, while trying to keep their parents in line they form a friendship and the chemistry between them becomes undeniable. They don’t want their parents to find out so they sneak around with each other and their connection continues to grow. The downside is that once their parents are both doing better and can be on their own again, they will go back to their homes on the opposite ends of the country. I absolutely loved Ryan and Carly. They had some great chemistry, there was plenty of banter and Ryan is definitely hiding some things beneath his suits, the man is rather passionate.
Carly and Ryan’s parents, Stella and Sal, were HILARIOUS. They may be in their 70s but they were living like they were still In their 20s at times. Then throw in Betty, Nan and the other Sunny Creek crew and there were even more laughs and crazy shenanigans. I would hands down move to Sunny Creek just to witness some of the craziness.
