As Easy as Cherry Pie by Bell Renshaw | Book Review
REVIEW | Anytime I pick up a novel by Bell Renshaw, I know it’s going to be a good time. This, her fifth publication, is no different. As Easy as Cherry Pie is a charming and quaint small town romance that features characters from her first novel (in the Justin Harbor series) and allows us to get to know Maggie as a determined businesswoman and as a woman who wishes for a happy end.
The love story is too charming. The characters are already unique on their own, but together, there’s really no other choice but to root these two on. They’re darling. I also have to confess to having a soft spot for Fletcher. His adorable nerd/geek personality is so endearing, and the relationship he has with his brother adds more layers to his personality.
BOOK REVIEW | As Easy as Riding a Bike – Sweethearts Reunite in Small Town
When all is said and done, this is without question one of 2020’s most charming contemporary romance novels. If you like romances with a solid sense of community, you’ll like this one. It’s short in page number (but with more length than a novella), but it makes use of each one and pulls the reader along on the best kind of story.
