Synopsis
A ruined reputation. A second chance. A conflict between love and ambition….
Genevieve Porter was forced to flee the art world of Manhattan after she blew the whistle on the shady practices of a powerful dealer. Now she owns a small gallery in the breathtaking beach town of Cambria, California. For Gen, this is a place to regroup; she’s poised to restore her name in the art world and return to New York in triumph.
When she meets Ryan Delaney, a cattle rancher who’s more than he appears to be, she’s ready for a sexy roll in the hay – literally. But when her feelings for him become more than casual, she realizes that his roots on the Central Coast go back generations, and it’s going to be a challenge to lure him away from his family’s land.
If they’re going to make a life together, one of them is going to have to give up old ideas, old goals – old feelings about what success means, and what makes a place a true home.

Ashlie's Featured Review
The second book in the Main Street Merchants series, this novel follows Genevieve Porter and her attempts to revamp her career after being run out of the Manhattan art scene. Along the way she starts a romance with Ryan Delaney, a local cattle rancher with deep ties to Cambria. Over the course of many months their relationship blooms but is constantly threatened by the fact that Gen wants to move back to Manhattan to pursue her dreams. There’s more spice and more conflict in this novel than in the previous one of the series, though not by much, with a HEA at the end. This can be read as a stand-alone novel in the series as the plot itself is quite separate from what happened in Moonstone Beach.
Gen is so fun to follow in this novel, I think because I personally have ties to art and the art scene. The discussions of art aren’t super involved so it’s easy for the layman to digest, and the plot line following Gen attempting to get her name back on everyone’s lips is entertaining. Gen can be irritating with some of her inner thoughts regarding her relationship with Ryan, though that’s par for the course in a lot of these romance novels as communication issues seem to be the driving force behind most of the choices the MCs make. Girl, just tell him!
Ryan is wonderful in that he is incredibly supportive of Gen and her dreams of opening her own gallery in NYC. Honestly, he’s almost a perfect book boyfriend. There are issues with miscommunication, a bit more than the previous novel in the series, and he absolutely makes some missteps during the height of tension in the novel, but over all he clearly wants what is best for the woman that he has fallen in love with. It’s lovely to see supportive men in romance.
Another hit out of the park for narrator Avie Paige. Her characterizations and voices for the different individuals in this novel was fantastic. There were a few long pauses in the editing on this one, but no other issues were detected in the recording of this audiobook.
I received this audiobook at no-cost from AdoptAnAudiobook.com. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
