Sometimes you just need a wonderful story that you can escape into and close yourself off from all the worries of the world. Lori Foster is a go-to for feel-good, heartfelt stories.
Her new women’s fiction book I was able to review has all of the earmarks of a lovely escape novel with not one, but two budding romances. Check out my thoughts on this upcoming publication.

ABOUT:
Summer flings with no strings mean nobody gets hurt.
At least, that was the plan…
After putting the brakes on her dead-end relationship, local veterinarian Ivey Anders is ready to soak up this summer on her own terms. The way she sees it, no dating means no disappointment. Why complicate life with anything long-term? But when she meets Corbin Meyer—and his troubled young son, Justin—Ivey’s no-strings strategy threatens to unravel before she can put it into practice.
Trust doesn’t come easy for Ivey’s best friend, Hope Mage, a veterinary-clinic assistant who’s affected by an incident that’s colored every relationship she’s had. Though Hope’s happy for Ivey, she can’t quite open her own heart to the possibility of love. Not just yet… Maybe not ever. Soon, however, she’s faced with a dilemma—Corbin’s older brother, Lang. He’s charming, he’s kind…and he may just be the reason Hope needs to finally tear down her walls.
And as the sweet summer months unspool, the two friends discover love won’t give up on them so easily.
The Summer of No Attachments by Lori Foster Review
I have to say I am a little envious of the locations in this book. The small-town storybook feel is in full affect as we dive into the story.
Foster has the perfect recipe for a cozy story that we crave. Wonderful atmosphere, well developed characters with interest and emotional connection, and a beautiful blend of fun and seriousness that balances everything out.
The story takes on multiple issues such as single parent struggles, family dysfunction, anxiety, moving forward, and trust. Foster tackles these in with grace using strong bonds of friendship, love, and care for each other in the steps towards healing.
The characters are blended together naturally and it seems like effortless friendship and romance builds strong connections with the family. Foster also throws in a little bit of disturbance and a ton of emotion in this heartwarming novel.
This is a sweet family romance that digs deep into your heart. The timid and fearful become strong and loved; free to become who they are meant to be. The Summer of No Attachments is Fosters specialty, offering a sweet, emotional connection all the way around.
