Mulberry Hollow

Denise Hunter has written another sweet romance that pulls you into the story right from the start. I really enjoyed Avery and Wes’ love story. They were fun, relatable, and likable characters with very compelling personal stories. Avery faces an unknown future and Wes fears he’ll turn out like his dad and stubbornly sticks to a self-imposed duty to fulfill a promise. As their romance blossoms, it’s clear they need to face their fears in order to have a future together. Avery’s story is very heavy, and Hunter did a great job of making me feel the tension within her and to live the angst of not knowing. And Wes is such a decent guy, I wanted to have a conversation with him to tell him to stop worrying about becoming his dad. I think you can say I was invested in the story, which is always a good thing. I’m a huge fan of Denise Hunter and Mulberry Hollow doesn’t disappoint. Five stars all the way.
