(if I were a negative Nelly, I’d say almost too close to some Gilmore girls aspects ie Logan having an ex that broke his heart for not wanting small town life *cough Luke and Rachel cough* or Logan disappearing from town for a week *Cough Luke and Lorelei’s breakup season 5* but I am not a negative Nelly and I happen to like those dangerously too similar aspects ...more

It’s a favorite trope of mine: girl running from her past ends up in a small town, ready and willing to help the hunky hunky business owner save his business, while he’s ready and willing to break down her walls and be the safe home she so desperately wants and needs. But in this case, with the speed of the story, it made it difficult at times to believe it was more than just lust. ...more
