4.5 Smooches
Synopsis
Chase Cade is as untethered as a kite without a string.
The minute she drives past the “Welcome to Maybelle” sign after six months traveling, she knows the quaint little town is something new entirely. It’s more than the good food and welcoming people — with the exception of the gruff bartender she meets her first night out.
Aden Riveau couldn’t be more rooted in Maybelle if he were an actual tree.
In a town that caters to tourists, his bar is the only place the locals have all to themselves. Everyone knows him and he knows everyone, and nothing spoils his peace more than having to deal with nosy, gawking tourists who don’t stick around.
She’s only in Maybelle for a vacation, and he’s never taken a vacation in his life. He can’t stop thinking about how different she is, and she can’t stop trying to figure him out. But her reservation has an end, and his never will, unless he can find a way to pour his heart out.
Review
Pour Your Heart Out by Zoe Lee is a debut novel with tons of heart and soul. Setting up a series that is destined to be good; Pour Your Heart Out gave me all the sweet happy feels I look forward to with small town romances.
Chase is a world traveler and Aden is a local bar owner who loves his small town and the people in it. The two could not have more different lives and from the outside they look completely wrong for each other. And yet . Not only do the two constantly find themselves in each others company they are both growing to desire more of it which is magical and scary at the same time. Chase is passing through and Aden is here to stay, what could possibly come from this?
Zoe Lee gives us a quintessential small town romance with tons of small town charm and a large cast of characters I can’t wait to know more about. I have fallen hard for the people of Maybelle and I know you will too.
