REVIEW:
4.5 Stars
Another winner in this series. It's Gemma's twin sister Lyra up. I just loved Lyra and Cy. They have a history that has led to Lyra shooting daggers at Cy. Now Lyra back in Townsend Harbor things are going to get interesting with Cy have to work his magic on a tree. I also enjoyed Larry and the unexpected delightful surprise with that kitty. There are two stand out reasons why I love this series so much is the representation of the characters and the humor. I can't tell you how many times this book had me chuckling while reading. The characters really sucked me into this book. It was hard to put down. One of my favorites in the series now. This book left me with a huge smile on my face because this awesome second chance romance was such a wonderful journey for Cy and Lyra. Lyra is in for many surprises with her return to her hometown. I recommend this one you will not be disappointed!

BLURB:
Everyone thinks LYRA MCKENDRICK is magic. She’s not, for the record, just a lawyer who predicted a few outcomes that were blown out of proportion in the robust Townsend Harbor rumor mill. After a messy breakup in which she lost her thriving practice, she’s returned to her hometown to lick her wounds and is persuaded by a local town cook to capitalize on her cringe-worthy reputation by running the local new-age shop. How hard could it be to sell chakra-cleansing crystals, libraries worth of tarot cards, crops of candles, and enough incense to choke out Willie Nelson’s entire entourage? When one of Townsend Harbor’s many ancient trees threatens her plumbing, she engages Cypress Forrester, aka “Cy the Tree Guy” to rid her of the problem. Instead, he seems intent on becoming one. Cy’s family have been arborists and healers for generations, and they’re firm believers in the mysticism of trees, among other things. When she hires him to chop down an endangered tree to save her business, they find themselves on opposite ends of a battle neither of them is willing to lose. As a man tethered by indigenous roots to the earth, Cy immediately realizes Lyra is a woman who lives in her head, which often disassociates her from her heart, body, and intuition. It’s how she always finds “practical” explanations for the series of unexplained, serendipitous coincidences that keep thrusting them together. Alone. But Cy knows better, and he realizes that he must tempt her out of her thoughts and back into her body, and what better way to do that than by a thorough seduction?4.5 Stars
