HOOKED ON YOU by KATHLEEN FULLER is a most enjoyable romance novel that takes place in the small town of Maple Falls.
Different reasons have brought Hayden Price and Riley McAllister back to the place where they attended high school,
Riley is a loner and has always felt out of place, afraid that people will find out about her unhappy childhood. She went to live with her grandmother, Mimi, when she was thirteen and the two are very close. When Mimi breaks her leg, Riley goes to look after her and help run her yarn shop, intending to go back to New York, where she has been a struggling artist for the past nine years, as soon as possible. She has a poor self image.
Hayden is good looking, athletic and charming, but he also has secrets,They are both very good at keeping their emotions in check until things happen that shake them into facing the present and letting go of the past.
I love the friendliness of Mimi's Bosom Buddies and the three young women who befriend Riley.
Will Riley every feel that Maple Falls is home or will she rush back to her life in the big city?
It is a most enjoyable read with quite a bit of depth and one I can recommend to anyone who enjoys a good romantic novel.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Thomas Nelson. The opinions in this review are completely my own.

Riley is back in her hometown, having never returned before in the ten years since she left for New York.
Hayden has been back in town for a while, working at his family's hardware store.
They weren't friends in highschool, but they become closer now, but will they have a chance together when she can't wait to leave town again and all he wants to do is stay and improve the town?

Full of great characters, especially Mimi!

I hope this is a series and we get stories of Riley's new friends too.
