Review: Her Outback Surprise (Prickle Creek #2) by Annie Seaton

Synopsis

Angie Edmonds is content with life in her small town. Being alone doesn’t bother her. Really. Until Liam Smythe, the man who broke her heart, shows up at her vet clinic with an injured puppy. Unfortunately, he's just as irresistible as she remembers. In an attempt to prove to him that she’s moved on, somehow a little white lie begins…

When Liam returns to help run the family farm, his enjoyment of the slow life in Spring Downs surprises him. After all, he’s used to the thrill of chasing the next big story. Running into the girl he's never been able to forget is unexpected, and he’s shocked to learn she’s getting married--to someone who's not him. She’s off-limits, but Liam can’t stop thinking about the gorgeous vet and what could have been. But convincing her he’s changed will be harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

Review

It's an interesting contemporary romance novel. I enjoyed reading it. All the characters are good too. Although the ending was kind of anti-climatic but overall it's a good read. Anyone who enjoys a good second chance contemporary romance will surely like this book.

Liam and Angie met in London. They were together for sometimes but then Angie's visa expired and she had to move back to Australia. Liam never tried to stop her or offered to move back with her. He also didn't try very hard to keep in touch. Angie was in love with him and that hurt her big time. But now she has moved on. She is happy with her small town life and things are going good. Until she meets him once again....

Liam never expected to meet Angie in his home town. But now that they have met it seems like staying apart will take too much effort. But they must stay away from each other because there is no way any kind of relationship will work. Firstly, due to the fact that Angie has moved on. Secondly and most importantly this time Liam isn't here to stay....

So will they ever be able to clear the air and confess everything to each other. Or maybe they will just ignore their feelings and let things wither with time.

The story is enjoyable. I liked it a lot and would recommend to my friends who love contemporary romances, especially regarding second chances, small towns, and close families.
