Typical, Yet Not. This was a solid genre piece with a few nice wrinkles. If you like romance novels generally, you're going to like this one. If you don't, you may still actually like this one specifically because of the wrinkles. Without going into spoiler territory, the drama here just seems far more realistic than some others of the genre. You've got the mother with a secret. The haunted rock star. The rambunctious and inquisitve 12 yr old. But you've also got a second romance in this particular tale - a feature so rare as to be seemingly unique in all of my reading. Normally you get a secondary character blatantly introduced to continue the series in the next book. Here, this secondary character gets their own full story-within-the-story. This story-within-the-story serves to fill out the town and its wide cast even more fully, even as the main story does a good job in and of itself with this. Ultimately this is a romance novel and hits pretty well everything one expects - including on-screen (though not erotica-level explicit) sex. So if you are a reader that can't handle such a scene (and there are less than a handful of them here, basically enough to fulfill the genre requirement and little else) or you can't handle the occasional “curse” word (again, not prevalent, yet present), you may want to skip this due to your own hangups. For the rest of us, this was an excellent read. Very much recommended.
