I have to say that I love the current chick-lit style romance that is so popular today. The authors are blending in fears and tears with hope and happiness through a beautiful fresh love connection. I have read one other story in this series by Liasson and it was a treat as well!
Read on for my review of the upcoming new release!
The Sweetheart Crush by Miranda Liasson
ASIN: B0BST4KW9P
Publisher: Entangled: Amara
Publication date: October 23, 2023
OVERVIEW:
Photographer Viv Montgomery’s dreams were bigger than her small hometown of Blossom Glen. Following them meant leaving everything and everyone behind—including her sweet and funny best friend, Logan Matthews. Now, twelve years later, the town’s “sweetheart” is back, broke, and…well, working in the town’s famous Christmas store until she figures out her next move.
Enter her former best friend who she hasn’t seen or talked to in years. Only the cute, funny guy she remembers is gone—replaced by a famous, bestselling author who seems aloof, jaded, and much, much hotter than any book nerd she’s ever seen. Seeing him in the news is one thing, but up close and person? Whew, it’s warm in here.
Now he’s offered her a job she desperately needs (blissfully free of Santas), and suddenly it’s like no time has passed at all. Their friendship is just like it was…with one very unexpected difference. Because somewhere between the blossom festival and snuggling in front of a crackling fire, their friendship is definitely turning into some more. Only, Logan’s been hiding the secret of his enormous success…and the sweetheart of Blossom Glen is about to read all about it.
Each book in the Blossom Glen series is STANDALONE:

The Sweetheart Crush by Miranda Liasson Review
I think we have all been through ups and downs not only in our careers but also in the romance department. It feels good to read a sweet romance to help bring us hope, happiness, and a fresh outlook on life. I think that is why I love romance books so much! At least we get the Happily Ever After!
This story is a stand-alone and as part of a general series of stories that are located in a small town, we get that close family ties vibe. This book brings not only past childhood besties back together, but makes their mother’s dreams come true too! I am not sure that is a plus if that was my life. LOL
With The Sweetheart Crush, Liasson pours so many emotions into the story from past hurts and heartbreak to a fresh new start. She highlights complexities from small-town jerks edging on bullying, to opening your heart and mind to possibilities.
I love these two main characters with their intrinsic connection to each other. Logan is beautifully depicted and truly cares for Viv. He is the star of this story!
The Sweetheart Crush is an easy-to-read, clean romance that brings a sweet, endearing, somewhat predictable story for those who love second-chance romance. Heartwarming and sweet, just like the title!
4 STARS!
