The Walkers of River's Edge

Reviewed by Helen


I am back in River’s Edge and loved it, Joe Walker is busy designing and getting the landscaping done for the spec homes Walker Construction is building and they need this to be a huge success but an accident changes this and sidelines Joe, the company hires another landscape gardener, Joe’s neighbor Kara Sudbury, who was there when he fell and broke his leg. The sparks fly when Kara wants to change all of Joe’s plans.

Kara has been away from River’s Edge for six years working in England designing and building English gardens for the big manor houses, but when things in her life go wrong she wants to be home with her beloved grandparents and to help them with their struggling garden centre, when she is hired by Jack Walker to finish of what his brother had started this is going to cause a few problems she thinks, because their ideas are very different.

A deal is worked out between Joe and Kara when Joe is being stalked by a past date, the deal helps both of them but the spark between them grows while supposedly pretending to be a couple, they are so very different in their ways but they say opposites attract, could there be a future for them, or will life and differences pull them apart?

This is such a great story it had me turning the pages it is filled with emotion, it is witty and the sensual pull lights up the pages, I absolutely loved Joe and I want him for myself and Kara is fabulous as well she is such a caring granddaughter and friend who has a hard time for a bit but hero Joe is there to save the day.

I do highly recommend this one to any lover of a great romance, I look forward to more visits to River’s Edge, I love visiting this town.
