WEDNESDAY REVIEW - Swimming In Moonlight

Good morning, everyone!

AMAZON

I am excited to share a 'new' author with you this week. Actually, Mitzi Fine has been writing books under Kit Morgan for several years. She also has the Wild Rose Ridge series which has seven books so far and last fall she released a Christmas book - Her Christmas Wish - as part of that series.  

If you want to be a successful author, this is one gal to follow. She knows what she's doing!

Here's a bit about Mitzi Fine:

Mitzi Fine loves writing women's fiction and small town romance stories that touch the heart. Her wholesome stories depict a strong sense of family and community and have no shortage of humor! She loves adding a bit of mystery to her books, and why not? She was raised by a homicide detective! Enjoy her sweet romances and women's fiction books about life, love, and women of a certain age trying to reshape their lives and discover love again.

When not writing Mitzi enjoys traveling, eating chocolate, and driving her family a little crazy with all the stories in her head just waiting to get out. She resides in the Pacific Northwest where many of her stories are set.

On to today's review:

BLURB:

Two Single Parents

A Cranky Grandmother

And a Heart-wrenching Secret...

 Single mother Cami James didn’t have much. What she did have was a lazy brother who thought she was his personal slave. So when her uncle dies and leaves her his duplex in her hometown of Marigold, Oregon, she jumps to collect her inheritance and get away from her brother. There was just one problem…

Alex Wolfe came to Marigold with his five-year old twins to start fresh. For one, the town was charming, and his grandmother lived there. And two? He never forgot the magical summer he’d spent with Cami James. But that summer was cut short when his grandmother sent him back to England, telling him Cami was with another man and had moved on. In fact, she’d not only moved on, she moved out of Marigold! Heartbroken he moved on too and wound up in a nightmare relationship. When Alex runs into Cami in Marigold, he can’t believe it! Could this mean a second chance at love? Or will a secret tear them apart for good? Find out in this heartwarming second chance romance!

Wow!  

Most of you know that Second Chance love stories are what I write. Whether the main characters are reuniting after a period of separation for one reason or another, OR they are just taking a second chance at love with someone new, these story lines have my heart.  You could say I cut my romance teeth on Second Chance Romances.

SWIMMING IN MOONLIGHT is Book 1 in the Love In Marigold series. Very seldom do I get in on the ground floor of a series. I'm usually picking up a book in the middle then going back to catch up. Last Wednesday's book, for example.  Dropping into the middle of a series is fine when the books can stand alone, which is the case with Swimming In Moonlight. 

I loved how Mitzi found the title in her story (or maybe vice versa) by incorporating a memory from the hero's point of view. Swimming in the moonlight was a beautiful memory from Alex's past with Cami. 

There are a couple of bumps in their reunion that will make you want to throttle other people, but there is one cranky old lady you'll come to love. Grandma D grew up in another time... a time that molded her way of thinking. But she's smart and she learns to let go without losing who she is.

I'm anxious for Book 2 and once you read SWIMMING IN MOONLIGHT and visit the small town of Marigold, I think you will be too.

I'm giving SWIMMING IN MOONLIGHT:
