The Whispering Pages Book Blog: Release Blitz & Review Small Town Swoon by Melanie Harlow

Release Date: March 4, 2024

Only in the movies does the Hollywood heartthrob fall for the small town diner waitress.

So when Dashiel Buckley returns to Cherry Tree Harbor for a wedding, I’m determined not to let my massive crush on my best friend’s older brother hijack my good sense.

(It happened once before. Do not recommend.)

But when my hand is injured, it’s Dash who steps in at the diner. The moment he realizes I can’t afford to fix my car, he takes care of it. And when he hears about the way my toxic ex treated me, he refuses to let it go.

Now it’s not just his blue eyes and sexy smile that have me swooning, it’s the way he wants to help me. Encourage me. Protect me.

I can’t resist.

Our text messages heat up. Our phone calls melt all my defenses. “Just friends” turns into “just once,” and “just once” becomes a distant memory. Night after night, he warms my bed, my body, and my heart.

But it can’t last.

Our dreams have us on two different paths–Dash wants the lights, camera, action of Hollywood, and I’ll always be a small town girl.

If only I could be his.

Review

This is the 4th book on the Cherry Tree Harbor series and Dash and Ari stole my heart! These two just graduated to my favorite couple in this series....Sorry Devlin & Lexi.

This book covered several tropes, best friends brother, friends to lovers and maybe even second chance romance. Some of my favorites all delivered in one perfectly manicured book. I couldn't wait to get back to these two. I smiled a lot while reading this book and it definitely had some heat. Ari wasn't the only one feeling the affects of Dashiel Buckley.

When Dash returns to his hometown to find himself and take a break from Hollywood he finds more than he bargained for. What Ari finds is her childhood crush come true. A friends with benefits situation gets these two tangled up in more than just the sheets.

I loved how Dash and Ari complemented each other and the way that their story unfolded. It seemed like a natural progression and definitely caused some Small Town Swoon.

Melanie delivered a memorable read full of playfulness, friendship, family and most of all love. Don't pass on this book or the series. The Buckley family is one to be enjoyed.
