I have loved Sophie Sullivan’s previous books and was super excited to read Love, Naturally but unfortunately this story fell flat to me.

I really enjoyed the beginning of the story and the introduction of Presley, especially when she threw her exes bag in the parking lot of the pie shop, but once she got to the lodge, the story seemed to move very slowly. I felt the Dual POV was confusing at times, especially at the beginning I found myself confused between the two brothers and trying to figure out who was who.

Typically the instant love trope doesn’t bother me, but I found this instant love very unbelievable especially with Beckett being willing to give up his dreams to move and be close to Presley!

What I did like: the small town feel, the side characters, the little side stories. honestly my favorite part of this book was hearing about the two brother’s bar, Beckett looking out for his neighbor, and Ollie’s precociousness. I would love to read another book by Sophie Sullivan focused on Ollie and Jill!

This is hands down the best book that Sophie Sullivan has written. I ate this up and absolutely loved our main characters! It was a little bit insta-lovey, so if that isn't your thing then you might not enjoy this story. The saving the family business plotline had me absolutely hooked. I wanted to know everything that happened to the Lodge!
I was very satisfied by the ending and will definitely be buying a copy of this one, once it's out.

Love, Naturally was just okay for me. I definitely enjoyed the other two of Sophie Sullivans books that I read more than this. The plot was cute I just didn’t like ever really get invested in the characters.

A bit too insta-love for my taste. Classic city girl, small-town guy trope. The small town lodge was a fun setting but the plot fell short and the spice was closed door.

this book was so cute and the narration was fantastic! this was dual pov so i do wish that there had been a male narrator for beckett, but the female narrator did such a good job with both roles.

insta-love usually isn’t my favorite, but it worked well within this story. even thought it takes place over the course of ten days, it felt believable and there was so much character growth for both MCs. i especially loved presley’s growth and how much she stepped out of her comfort zone time and time again. from biking, to fishing, to four wheeling and so much more — beckett and presley shared so many sweet and memorable moments. it warmed my heart how they were both determined to put the other’s happiness ahead of their own.

i loved ollie and the rest of beckett’s family. they were so supportive of each other and both jillian and grayson have such interesting backstories! smile was the perfect small town setting and it came with all the things i love from a small town romance. i’m really looking forward to more stories in this series!

content: fade to black, some language

thank you to st. martin’s griffin and macmillan audio for an advanced copy. my thoughts are my own.

Presley is the girl who lives bougie on a budget but plans a hiking/fishing trip in hopes to reconnect with her boyfriend only for him to dump her the day of the trip. She decides she going to make this a solo trip. Beckett is helping his brother put back together his crumbling lodge while trying to figure out his own life. Beckett and Presley aren’t prepared for the draw between them but it’s only for a week or atleast it is suppose to be.

I honestly thought I was going to be in such a reading slump after having the last read completely break me but this book put me back together. This is such a cute read and I am obsessed with it. This gives opposite attracts and found family and small town vibes. This book gave me everything I needed and this definitely needs to be a series. I got so invested in all of these characters and need more. This is a definite must read.

This was a very sweet book. The characters and relationships were very wholesome and adorable. Overall, just a very charming book! I like a little more drama and angst in my books, so sometimes I found myself a little bored, unfortunately.

If you are a fan of hallmark movies, this is absolutely the book for you! It gives found family, adorable small town, sweet main characters, and working together to help a struggling lodge.

Sophie Sullivan always delivers a good clean romance with likeable characters and good banter.

I loved Presley, she was a good character, with a douchy ex. You could tell that she really needed the Get Lost Lodge. And Beckett, was so cute and so loveable. He really drove the story.

If I had one complaint, it was a little bit to instalove for me. But I did like that they took time by themselves at the end of the story before coming back to each other.

I absolutely LOVED this book! I feel like everything I read by Sophie Sullivan is amazing and Love, Naturally doesn’t disappoint! I love all the humor throughout and every way Presley describes the outdoors! Apart from Presley and Beckett being an adorable couple, the other characters and the way they interacted as a family made this book so much better!!! I absolutely cannot wait for it to come out in January!!

This was a cute read with the perfect amounts of small town charm, rugged wilderness, and the kind of family love and relationships that I love. Presley was a fun character and I loved that she was willing to push herself out of her comfort zone to make the most of her situation. Beckett was charming and everything I love in a love interest. I loved getting to know the Keller's and the other guests staying at the lodge - can I book my stay at Get Lost yet??

First off, thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for granting me access to this book in exchange for an honest review.

OUTLIER ALERT!! 🎶It's me🎶 The synopsis for this book sounded incredible and I was super excited to read it. I mean who doesn't like a fun small town romance with an opposites attract trope?! Unfortunately, this one did not meet my expectations because I struggled to connect with the characters, repetitive story, extremely slow pacing and the insta-love made me wince! Honestly, it was hard to get through and I never thought the story would end. I did enjoy the charming side characters and the found family.

I know many people will love this book so please do not base your decision to read this book solely on my review.

✨2.5 stars rounded up to 3 stars! ✨

Another family I immediately fell in love with.

Another small town I immediately fell in love with.

Quirky townspeople I immediately fell in love with.

Main male character who is best friends with his adorable niece whom I immediately fell in love with.

You will not be able to not fall for everyone (except Emmett, was getting major Warner from Legally Blonde vibes here) in this book. I love a good fake dating and basically instant love but I wanted to yell at both of them the entire time “this dating is not fake!”. Oh. And absolutely loved she did not wallow about the end of her relationship with Emmett. She realized her worth and moved on.

Basically fell in love with everything about this book immediately. Don’t skip this one!!

Not my favorite Sophie Sullivan book.😔
This started out good and then it kind of pettered out and nothing beyond mutual attraction happened. And the characters kept walking on eggshells around it. It got to the point wgere I didn't want to pick up the book anymore, I completely lost interest which I hate to admit..

If you are a looking for a cute, low stress romance, this definitely fits the bill. It's nice to see an opposites attract romance where they aren't immediately pitted against each other as "enemies" or grumpy/sunshine. From the beginning, Presley and Beckett appreciated their differences instead of being hostile, and they were both so encouraging and positive.. I really liked that aspect.

I struggled with the pacing. Covering a 10 day vacation by day led to some dragging and repetition. This is absolutely my grumpy Millennial perspective speaking, but I don't really enjoy reading about social media content development (e.g. characters making TikTok videos). I also thought the conclusion was unrealistic for where Presley was in her life. But I think a lot of readers will appreciate this low angst story with lovely side characters where you really want everyone to be happy.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for my honest review.

I really wanted to like this book but really the negatives outweigh the positives for me. The premise is a cute one but that was really the only highlight. The pacing was incredibly slow which really made it hard for me to read. The romance was cheesy.

Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this book to others.

A cute, insta-love, opposites attract, closed-door romance. A light, fun read without being saccharine.

Premise: Presley thinks she knows what she wants out of life until she ends up going on her (ex)boyfriend's birthday trip alone and meets a handsome stranger.

I found almost all of the characters in this book to be likable. I appreciate that Presley is a well-rounded character, and not just a caricature of a city girl. Beckett is indeed every bit the dreamy mountain man. The supporting characters are all great, and I can see this being spun into a series featuring Beckett's siblings.

My biggest issue is I'm not a big fan of third-person narrative in dual POV books but, otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed this.

I came into this book apprehensive. I'd read a previous Sophie Sullivan book and found the writing juvenile. So thankful I gave her another chance. This book is worlds better, and I now look forward to her future work.

Thank you @netgalley @smpromance for a copy of this sweet romance. Presley goes on a fishing trip solo after her boyfriend doesn't want to go. I love the small town vibe and all the characters in this story. Presley meets Beckett who is helping his brother and sister with this lodge. This story is a bit of insta love which I am not a big fan of but thought it was done well. I enjoyed seeing both Beckett and Presley's growth journey. I hope this story continues with Beckett's siblings as the focus.

This was such a cute and quick listen! I really enjoyed the FMC, how she went out of her comfort zone. The cottage setting, the MMC, his family and that ending were fabulous!

Thanks to NetGalley, MacMillan Audio & St Martin's Press for advance copies in exchange for an honest review

I've read and enjoyed all of Sophie Sullivan's books, but Love, Naturally is my absolute favorite. Beckett and Presley's love story was so sweet, romantic, and well-developed which is not an easy feat in an "insta-love" situation. This book honestly made me want to jump on the nearest ferry to a very small island and find my own Hot Mountain Man, or at least his family! I would absolutely love stories about Jill and Gray and hope this is a series.

Surprisingly cute!

I'm a big outdoor gal and this one peeked my interest and it was just delightful. Fun and adorable, the perfect mix of laughable city gal meets the outdoors and struggling family resort mets social media star.
