Review: Once Upon a Summertime by Melody Carlson



About the book:
She's looking for her big break. She never imagined it would depend on a blast from her past. 

Managing the Value Lodge in her hometown was not what Anna Gordon had in mind when she set out in the hospitality industry. But it's a safe choice for a young woman starting out her career.

Then, out of the blue, she gets the opportunity of a lifetime: a chance to reinvent herself and reinvigorate her career by moving to New York City. She applies for a management position at a stylish new hotel, The Rothsberg. But the city is full of surprises--not the least of which is discovering that Sean O'Neil, a once-upon-a-time crush, has applied for the very same position.

This sweetly romantic tale of dreams come true takes you through the storied streets of New York City--and into the depths of the human heart.

My thoughts:

Once Upon a Summertime was not at all what I expected! I didn't read the description prior to starting it, so I didn't know it was about hotel managers and a budding romance between them that ends up being forbidden due to them being coworkers. 

A pleasant surprise to find that I actually really enjoyed this book and found the characters charming. :) I liked the ending, but things did seem to end a bit too fast.

All in all, a very good contemporary romance and I recommend it if you enjoy these novels. :)
