Crazy for You

I might have said this before,  but I love deep Haven.  There is something special about this small fictional community.  In Crazy for you we get two different perspectives of this town. I loved Peter! He is a resident of Deep Haven and related to two of the big families in this town, so we get to see a inside look into the town workings.  I really enjoyed his loyalty and how he really took his responsibilities seriously.  I liked how we got to see him grow from being in a position where he was constantly having to be the peacemaker, to learning how to ....well you'll see. Ronie was definitely his opposite! She came into this community as an outsider and is definitely a fish out of water for a while.  While I do enjoy strong female characters,  I felt like Ronie was a bit over the top with her rudeness.   Perhaps it's just because I love this town so much that I felt defensive of it.

Another wonderful part of the series! Each one of these stories is unique and holds a special part in this saga. This book has a slow building, slow burn feel but once the peices are in place I couldn't put it down. I really loved Guy and Alvida's story. She was a unique, yet relatable heroine. I cheered for her as she faced her insecurities and enemies. It was so cool to see Guy from her other series being incorporated into this series and getting his own story. I loved his sense of honor and how he grew from the hurt from the past. This book is rich in the history of the time too. Filled with insight into William and I really loved how the book wrapped up. Swoony romance, a satisfying ending. 4.5 stars I recieved a complementary copy of this book from the author. All opinions in this review are honest and completely my own.

Though this book was an exercise in brain power to keep track of three timelines, it is a beautifully written book.  With split time novels you get more than one story,  yet it is linked together in some way. I really enjoy that link to history,  the reminder that there have been centuries of people with hopes and dreams that have lived before us. This was my first time reading this author,  but I will definitely be back for more!
