In my previous post about Jayci Lee’s Temporary Wife Temptation, I mentioned that it was my first proper Harlequin romance and that I was so excited to read more! I’m happy to say that I did not have to wait long to read more! Thankfully, the lovely folks at Harlequin provided me with Jo McNally’s Her Homecoming Wish and I think slowly but surely they’re breaking down my avoidance of contemporary romance.

About the Book

She’s ready to shed her good-girl ways…
“You’re all about following the rules now?
“Pity.”
Mackenzie Wallace hopes there’s still some bad boy lurking beneath single father Danny Adams’s upright exterior. Being the proverbial good girl left her brokenhearted and alone in the past. Now she’s back in town and wants excitement with her high school crush—not love. Dan knows their connection runs deep, despite Mackenzie’s protests. But will their new personas work together—especially when Dan’s secret is exposed?

My Thoughts

This is the third book in the Gallant Lake series and I’d definitely be interested in reading the other books when I’m in the mood for a comfort read.

It’s a quick light read. If you enjoy small town romances, the brother’s best friend hero trope, and good girls living on the edge after a heartbreak this will be your jam. I’ll admit that I have a soft spot for old high school crushes reconnecting when their older and it definitely got me in the feels!

Admittedly, while I read this quickly and enjoyed it, I didn’t fully connect with the characters so it was a solid read for me but not one I’m yelling from the rooftops (or internet) about. That being said I think a lot of folks will enjoy it for the aforementioned tropes, which it satisfies very well.


About the Author

Jo McNally lives in upstate New York with 100 pounds of dog and 200 pounds of husband – her slice of the bed is very small. When she’s not writing or reading romance novels (or clinging to the edge of the bed…), she can often be found on the back porch sipping wine with friends, listening to an eclectic playlist. If the weather is perfect, she might join her husband on the golf course, where she always feels far more competitive than her actual skill-level would suggest.
