Rain on a Hot Tn Roof
Stella Quinn
Reviewed by Helen
Stella Quinn has taken me back to one of my favourite towns Clarence and this time we see another of the Miles family find her HEA. Felicity is back in town renting a small cottage she has returned from Edinburgh a shadow of who she used to be thanks to a relationship with her ex-partner she has taken up a job at the local high school the one she attended, her days of travelling and writing travel guides is behind her and post-it-notes are the bane of her life, but life goes on and Felicity finds herself not only teaching her subject English but also science this should be fun.
Luke Simpson is a single dad to sixteen year old Jace and has become a bit of a helicopter parent since and accident nearly took Jace away from him, he has sold up his house in Wollongong and moved to the Simpson farm with his half-sister Sally, the farm is dilapidated and it also brings back some not so good memories for him about his father, Jace is not happy with him, but how can he not worry all of the time. Luke has taken a FIFO position in a gold mine he is an engineer and finding love is not on the agenda, but it seems that Sal and Jace have other ideas and when they meet the new teacher in town things move.
Felicity has been given the task of coaching the school tennis students and soon meets Sal and the Tennis ladies, Jace has chosen tennis for his sport instead of basketball this will throw a spanner in the works for his father and the tennis ladies put everything into pushing Luke and Felicity together.
This is such a fabulous story, I loved Felicity and Luke they so deserve to be happy and find love after all they have been through, Sal and Jace what fabulous characters, this is a fun and witty story that had me turning the pages I couldn’t get enough of this story and was sad to see it end and catching up with characters from previous stories was awesome. I do highly recommend this one it left me feeling very happy.
My thanks to Harlequin AU and Netgalley for my copy to read and review.
