Description:
They swear they’re not right for each other but the matchmakers of Highland Falls are out to prove them wrong.
Elliana MacLeod has come home to whip the Mirror Lake Inn into tip-top shape, the only way to prevent her mother from selling the beloved family business. In between watching over mischievous, cigar-sneaking Grandpa Joe and trying to help Highland Falls win the Most Romantic Small Town in America contest, Elliana’s plate isn’t just full, it’s overflowing. She can’t refuse Nathan Black’s offer to fix up the inn, even if the gorgeous law enforcement officer has made it abundantly clear he considers her a friend, and nothing more.
Nate knows he’s not cut out for long-term relationships or white picket fences, and that’s what Ellie deserves. Yet keeping her at arm’s length is nearly impossible, especially once they’re working—and living—side-by-side. The more time he spends with Ellie, the more he wants, and not just for today but forever. When Ellie’s ex returns to town, has Nate missed his chance with the woman of his dreams?
My review:
The Inn on Mirror Lake is a wonderful addition to the heartwarming Highland Falls series. I'm in awe of how there can be suspense and some pretty serious things happening at times, yet the humor and love seem to really shine through and leave you with that warm feel-good feeling after reading. I have a soft spot for Nate and I love how Ellie gets through his tough exterior and around the walls he's built up around his heart. I hope to see more of him in the future books. Maybe he can even get a smile out of baby Michaela! Ellie was not my favorite female lead from this series, but I feel like she was a good fit for Nate so I'm still on board with this ship lol. I'm definitely looking forward to more in this series. When I see Debbie Mason's name on a book I know I must read it!
