Is she out of reach?

Fire Chief and former Army sergeant Kayleigh Baker is determined to save Mulberry’s annual Fourth of July fireworks display. She doesn’t want to disappoint the kids and the fireworks are a bittersweet memory of her mom’s last summer. As the town prepares for the summer parade and picnic, Kayleigh works to convince her former high school crush — now the straight-laced police chief — to help her cause.

Does he stack up?

Police Chief Liam MacAvoy doesn’t like the chaos the fireworks cause for his department and can’t hide his relief when they’re cancelled. But now he’s got the woman he’s been in love with for as long as he can remember asking for his help. How can he say no? What he’d really like is to show her that fireworks and town traditions are not the only things worth fighting for.

Can the boy next door and the town hero find the courage to finally seize their chance at love?

My Review

I thought this was a charming book. I like that it had the small town feel. Kayleigh, her sisters, and father were great. Liam is a sweetheart. It was nice that Liam and Kayleigh did not have an instant love connection; despite them having a crush on each other.

However, I felt that the story really took a long time to pick up any momentum. To the point that I did lose interest in the story. There were parts of the story in first half that could have been cut without losing the overall story itself. Yet, I did feel the spark between Liam and Kayleigh when they did finally get together. While, I did not like this book, I would give this author another try.
