Finally Yours by Claire Raye

5.0

Finally Yours was so freaking cute. Claire Raye obviously knows how to do sexy/sweet, and those skills are on full display in this novel. It’s everything a feel good, warm and fuzzy, contemporary romance should be.

Jack Wilson and Lauren Somerville met the summer they were 15 when Jack’s father was working at Lauren’s parents winery. It was a love disguised as hate relationship, and when Jack went back to Australia at the end of the summer, they lost touch but never forgot one another. Now, 14 years later, Lauren needs assistance at the winery, Jack returns as the hired help, and the sparks start flying immediately.

Jack Wilson is the perfect combination of sensitive and sexy, confident without being too cocky. Lauren Somerville is sassy, independent, and driven. A little bit enemies-to-lovers, a little bit second chance, the chemistry between Lauren and Jack is off-the-charts hot. I was rooting for them from the very beginning, and when their flame finally ignited, it was a freaking inferno. Like “fan my face and clutch my pearls” blazing.

I liked this story and I loved this couple. The witty banter was LOL funny, the (many) steam scenes were HOT, and the secondary characters added the perfect depth and entertainment to the plot. Plus, the added wine making facts and vineyard imagery were fascinating!

If you’re looking for a read that will give you the warm-and-fuzzies while simultaneously making you blush and need a cold glass of water, Finally Yours is the book for you! Excited to read more from this author duo!
