Graham is the ultimate Mr Grumpy. This Alaskan native is anti tourist, doesn’t even really like his diner, is obsessed with his dog and his hometown. He doesn’t get involved with tourists and doesn’t like bringing them into town secrets. Until he meets Zoey. Zoey is bright eyed, beautiful, obsessed with Alaska and snags Grahams heart upon first meet.

This romance novel was such a cute one that had me hooked from the first page. I found myself smiling and giggling quite a bit on this journey. Definitely kicking myself that this stayed on my unread bookcart for so long 🙄.

We love a grumpy hero! I'm ready to catch the next flight to Moose Springs so I can hang out with Graham and Zoe on the daily. This was the perfect cozy romance that left me wanting to know where their story headed next. Thank you, NetGalley, for the ARC!

The Tourist Attraction was an adorable, sweet, flirty romantic comedy which kept me intrigued and left me wanting more of the characters from Moose Springs, Alaska. The wintry setting of Alaska was perfect for this swoony love story. Tourist Zoey finds herself falling for the owner of the local diner, The Tourist Trap. Graham is attracted to Zoey right away, but he knows that no good will come from starting a relationship with a tourist who will only be in town until it's time for her flight back home. However, the more time he spends around here, the more clear it is to him that he can't resist falling completely head over heels for her. Such a sweet story!

DNF - Did not finish. I did not connect with the writing style or plot and will not be finishing this title. Thank you, NetGalley and Publisher for the early copy!

Graham is the grumpy, Alaskan who runs a diner. Zoey is a tourist who visits Alaska. We know where this is going don't we? It was very cute, until it went on for far too long and was no longer cute. It is a pet peeve when books are often too long and could be scaled back to produce a more meaningful and impactful result with less.

This book was delightful. I want to go to Moose Springs! A romance filled with great sexual tension, hilarious banter, and a fabulous rendition of the sunshine and grump trope. Definitely recommend.

Girl!!! Sarah hooked me in with The Tourist Attraction and took me in with a hook, line, and sinker for life. The romance in here was exactly what I was looking for and the perfect read to settle down in front of the fireplace with!

Cute romance! Great setting! Looking forward to the rest of the series. Will purchase for library collection.

This was a fun vacation romance with lots of quirky townsfolk, a heroine with horrible luck, and the cutest canine sidekick a hero could ask for! I enjoyed the grumpy hero, the fun banter, and the interesting side characters. The aspects of living and vacationing in Alaska were interesting and the romance is a sweet one. I am really curious about the rest of the books in the series now!

I'll be honest, I was enjoying it for the most part for a good 3/4 th of the book. I really liked Graham's character, until the later half of the book. He's rough around the edges but kind at heart (his relationship with his blind dog was PRECIOUS!). He's honest, charming and sarcastic. I love how hard he pursues Zoe, even though it went against his no engaging with tourists rule. Yet toward the end, his whiplash of emotions when it came to her made me want to smack him. Zoe was a shy but spunky character and is also just as honest and sarcastic, which leads to some entertaining banter between the two.

My biggest issues with the book, besides the eye roll worthy events that took place in the last 25% of it, was that it felt unnecessarily long. I found myself skimming to get to the interactions between Zoe and Graham. Even a few of their encounters could have been cut from the novel without impacting it. This somehow manages to be insta love, with our leads falling deeply in love in less than two weeks, and slow burn at the same time. There are no kisses until 60% and then even longer ( I'm talking 93%) before we are given a closed door intimate scene. It just felt anticlimactic after reading for so long and unsatisfying. I can't not mention Zoe's best friend Lana who is horrendous. I really feel like the author choosing to have her pretty much drug Zoe in the beginning was a poor writing decision. All together, I feel like a different character choice for her best friend would have been wise.

I loved this book! The setting was lovely and the characters felt like real people. Highly recommend this read!

Loved, loved, loved this book. Great storyline- I'm a sucker for a cute rom-com and this one did not disappoint. Can't wait for the next one.

Well that was just ADORABLE 🥰 Loved everything about it, especially the setting and the cast of characters. I need more by this author!

I absolutely adored this book. I love being transported right to small town Alaska with the grumpy bar owner and his adorable puppy. The chemistry between our hero/heroine was off the charts. The dialogue was incredible - it was witty, funny, and flirty. I’m not huge on Insta-love tropes, but for some reason this one really worked for me! A very solid debut for Sarah Morgenthaler! I’ve already purchased the next two books in the series.

I really enjoyed this book more than I thought that I would! I love the whole grumpy persona Graham has going on. I find it really funny how he has the worst service at his diner but that's one of the reasons tourists come in to his place. Zoey is just adorable and fits Graham perfectly because they contrast each other so well. Also, Jake has a dog and is the cutest boy ever. I love the friendship Zoey has with Lana. It's literally goals. I kinda wish there was more to the ending and this whole story because there were just some things I wanted answers from.

The Tourist Attraction was so cute, and such a fun winter romance! I want to visit Alaska after reading it :). Romances aren't typically my go-to genre, but I picked this one up on a whim and I"m glad it did. While some parts felt a little slow and/or unnecessary, I sped through it and will definitely be picking up more romances as a result!

This one had much more of a rom-com feel, and while it had some steam, it wasn't a lot! Definitely recommend it, especially if you're a romance lover or even if you're newly dabbling.

Loved the dynamic between these two! It was so cute and I want nothing more than finding a romance in the mountains!

Absolutely adored this book. I love me a Grumpy and sunshine trope.
Graham is a grumpy local who run a diner and HATES tourist.
Zoey has been saving up for years just to get to moose springs Alaska and take in all the sights.

They meet at Graham’s Diner and it’s Insta love but I don’t mind a bit of Insta love - I married my Insta love.
These two have a great relationship and Zoey brings out Graham’s adorable sweet side.
He wins Book Boyfriend award.

I didn’t like the friend drugging Zoey, I don’t really understand why that needed to happen, no one was too pissed off by it either.
Other than that I thought this was a five star read.
The steam level was PG - I like some steam in my romances but this one got away without it.

If hate to love is your jam this book is for you. I found it a little predictable, but was cute and was a good read for a cozy night in.

The Tourist Attraction was really cute. I went into it hoping I would get Luke and Lorelai vibes, but ultimately this fell a little short. I will definitely read the next book in the series.
