This is my first book by Willow Aster, and I am in love! It’s a gorgeously sweet and romantic, small town, almost enemies-to-lovers story, introducing a wonderful family and I really enjoyed getting lost in this one.

“You’re gonna turn my world upside down, aren’t you, Scarlett,” he says, his forehead leaning against mine.
“You better believe it,” I say, grinning.

Scarlett Landmark runs her family’s ski lodge and resort in the Colorado mountains. She was raised on the property by her Grandparents, she knew she’d always run the beloved resort, and she was living the dream, until they had to sell. She’s staying on for six months to oversee the transfer, and she’s ready to make the process as difficult for the new owner as possible. And then the new owner shows up and it’s none other than the gorgeously sexy man that she had a one night stand with a few weeks earlier. That night was completely out of character for her, but she was drowning her sorrows after the sale, and Jamison took her mind off things by completely rocking her world. Now here he is, stealing her dream, and she is not happy.

Jamison is excited by his new business venture, and arrives in Colorado full of enthusiasm. He is shocked to see Scarlett again, but is so happy to have the chance to reconnect with her after their night together. But he does not get the welcome he’s hoping for, when she makes it clear that she hates his presence in her resort, and goes about making his life as difficult as it can possibly be. But Scarlett didn’t count on Jamison’s big heart, friendliness, and determination to win her over. He’s sweet, he’s funny, and he’s clearly loving his new job, everybody in town is falling in love with him, and Scarlett is trying oh-so-hard not to do the same.

“I…don’t know what to do with all these feelings and also be respectful of what you want.”
“What do you want?” she asks.
“I want you.”

This is such a cute read. I love Scarlett and Jamison, I thought they were both smart and relatable, and their relationship is absolutely irresistible. In turns snarky, fun and flirty, the chemistry between them sizzles, and I loved watching them grow closer, despite Scarlett’s best efforts. Things between them change naturally and honestly, and I loved watching their relationship blossom into something so amazing.

“We’re perfect for each other,” he whispers. “You’re still out of my league, but I’m doing to spend the rest of my life up for the challenge.”

Butting in along the way are Scarlett’s friends and workmates, and the townsfolk who are literally betting on who will win the heart of the new bachelor in town. We also get to meet her family, including her four older brothers, and I cannot wait for their stories. Also, in a fun link for fans, Jamison is the brother of Zac (from Autumn Nights), and we get to see Zac and Autumn in this one. They are new to me, but I loved them together, and enjoyed their part in the book, and the obviously close relationship between the two brothers.

I really enjoyed this book. A fun, sweet and sexy romance with lots of heart and a beautiful love story.

4 stars.
