Bittersweet by Carrie Aarons is now live!
The last place Cassandra Mauer ever thought she'd step foot again was Hope Crest, Pennsylvania. But once the world famous actress gets the call that her estranged father has passed, and his only living relative will need to settle his estate, she finds herself back in the small town that sent her running once upon a time.
Little do her dilapidated childhood home and her father's affairs know, Cassandra was in need of a project exactly like this to distract from the glamorous life she no longer wants or recognizes. That is, until she bumps into the man whose family is considered Main Street royalty.
Patrick Ashton is the boy next door, a Hope Crest celebrity, and one of the heirs to the most famous restaurants on the East Coast. He has no problem reminding her just how much the town hated her old man ... and in turn her for sharing his last name. But when he realizes she's going to sell the land their two families have fought over for decades, Patrick might have to change his tune.
As he begins scheming to charm the woman the entire country wants to be or be with, she can't deny the spark of chemistry between them still exists after all these years. The one that simmered in the shared woods behind their homes where no one else could see.
And when the danger that sent her fleeing as a teenager returns to seek revenge, she finds Patrick genuinely in her corner, despite his family's objections. In the place she swore never to return, she might have just found the love and life she was searching for.
Except old wounds and unsettled scores might not let her keep it.

Review:
4 Stars
I always look forward to Carrie Aarons' small town romances. I was so excited for this new series surrounding a big family. I was delighted it's an big Italian family. Now I'm not gonna lie it took me a bit to get into this one. I was not and still not a fan of how Hope Crest treated Cassandra back and even now. I'm not a big fan of bullies and there is one particular character in this one that I really didn't like. This book has the small town charm, but the romantic suspense touch. Patrick made the wrong move long ago when it came to Cassandra can he learn from his past mistakes or let what could his future slip through his fingers? There is definitely a McCoys and Hatfields vibes going on between Patrick's family and their outlook with Cassandra. Though the Ashton family to my delight did what I hoped they would do when it comes to Cassandra. After the little bump in the road for me to get going I gobbled this book right. I really loved Cassandra and was rooting for her to find her happy place to belong that felt like home. Looking forward to more from the Ashton family!
