Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher, for providing me with the ARC ebook that I read for this review.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an advanced copy of Love, Naturally by Sophie Sullivan.

I loved this book. I loved all the characters except her ex-boyfriend. He most defiantly was not my favorite. Beckett and Presley.... they were just made made for each other. You could tell from the start. Beckett and his family are just wonderful. They are such a close and loving family, you can't help but fall in love with all of them. I hope she does spin offs for both Jilly and Gray! Presley and Beckett complimented each other so nicely. They worked well together and you could feel the love, even though it was a short amount of time.
I would defiantly recommend this book. I didn't want to stop reading it!

This was a sweet, fun small town romance. The main characters are complete opposites but end up together at an outdoor adventure vacation. I don't read very many love at first sight love stories so I enjoyed this change of pace. This book also has a collection of fantastic supporting characters that really added to my enjoyment of the book! This story is warm and satisfying with characters that fall into an adult relationship (not too much misunderstanding or hurtful behavior in the name of romance). This was a fun read!

Thanks to Sophie Sullivan, St. Martin's Press, St. Martin's Griffin, and NetGalley for an ARC of this title in exchange for my honest review.

If you loved What Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey, you will love this. This has so much heart and had me audibly giggling for these two. SO SO good.

I am withholding my review of this title in solidarity with the Readers for Accountability boycott of St. Martin’s Press. I will happily share my thoughts once the publisher responds to the organizers.

This was a cute small town romance. If you like charming side characters and opposites attract this might be the book for you!

I feel like a lot of the story was repetitive and dragged in places but the instant love aspect was not really a hit for me. I did like Presley and Beckett and they had good chemistry.

Give this book a try if you’re looking for an easy to read and kind of corny sweet romance!

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

Presley Ayers is not an outdoorsy kind of girl - but her boyfriend of 8 months, Emmett, is. To try to connect with him more, She books a trip to the Get Lost Lodge - an place filled with outdoorsy excursions. But when she surprises Emmett with the trip, she finds herself dumped instead.

Presley is then determined to go on the trip anyways, intent on reevaluating her life and who she is. She encounters Beckett, brother of the owner of Get Lost, on the boat ride over and feels an immediate connection. While this book isn't marketed at an Insta-love, it really is - even though Presley has only ten days at Get Lost, her and Beckett fall into something wild and wonderful almost immediately.

I usually don't love Insta-love, but I loved Presley and Beckett. Both were adults in their thirties who acted like adults in their thirties, and I was rooting for them to find their happily ever after the entire time I was reading.

This book also has a great supporting cast - I'd read more from this world, like a book about Gray and a book about Jilly!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC!

Presley sells herself short at work, with her parents, and in relationships. After planning a fantastic surprise trip for her boyfriend, Emmett, his reaction is the opposite of what Presley anticipated and hoped for. Instead of the trip bringing them together and taking their relationship to the next step, Emmet is a complete jerk, and they break up. Presley decides to go on the vacation alone and learns so much about the Get Lost Lodge, a “hot mountain man,” and herself.

For fans of Happily Ever Afters, love at first sight, found family, and small-town romances, Love, Naturally is a charming and light rom-com.

When I get into a phase of reading historical fiction or more emotive contemporary fiction, I sometimes need something lighter and happier to break up the intensity. If you feel this way, consider Love, Naturally a good palette cleanser. It was easy and quick to read and a fun change of pace.

I switched between the Kindle version and the audiobook and enjoyed both formats. I love to listen to audiobooks while doing household chores or driving, and I tend to lean towards lighter books that are easy to follow with the audio version. Love, Naturally was great for this purpose.

Thank you, NetGalley and MacMillan, for the ARC.

This book gives you all the warm and fuzzy feelings. It's a lighthearted romance filled with humor, heart, and a dash of self-discovery. From the captivating storyline to the well-rounded characters, this book had me hooked from start to finish. I have to give a shoutout to Sophie Sullivan for crafting such a heartwarming story of opposites attracting. The way she develops the characters and their connection is simply magical.

Presley Ayers has a plan – she’s a concierge at a local hotel, dating a golden boy and ready to move to the next step with her love life and career.

Her plan goes sideways when she plans a surprise trip for her boyfriend’s birthday, but he breaks up with her instead. She goes on the trip instead by herself and is totally out of her comfort zone at the fishing resort, Get Lost Lodge, which is totally not her thing.

Beckett works at the Lodge, helping his brother get it back up and running. It’s instalove and a cringe meet-cute (but aren’t they the best kind?) but Beckett and Presley are cute together, and I could feel the instant connection.

Self-realization story with a supportive best friend, found family and discovering what (insta) love really is.

Went between e-ARC and audiobook for this one and recommend both.

I want to start by saying thank you to St.Martin's Press and NetGalley for approving my request to read "Love, Naturally" as an advanced reader.

SUMMARY:
This story follows Presley, a young woman who works as a concierge at a fancy, exclusive hotel. She goes to surprise her boyfriend with a camping trip, something that he would love and she totally wouldn't, and is instead surprised when he dumps her instead...RUDE! But, despite not being her thing, she takes the solo trip anyway. Insert, Beckett. A rugged and sexy man who works at the lodge where she'll be staying. The two characters are an unlikely pair, quite the opposite, but they go so well together and encourage each other to take risks that pay off in the end for them.

REVIEW:
I thought this book was adorable. I love a small town romance and enjoyed the characters so much. Beckett is my ideal definition of a man and I couldn't help by drool over him. The one thing I didn't totalllyy love about this book was the mention of social media, I like to read to escape the world we live in so when social media is mentioned in a book, it just isn't for me. But it wasn't over bearing and it did add to the plot in a nice way.

Dumped by her boyfriend when presenting him with a nature-oriented vacation she got him as a gift, Presley takes the trip solo despite it being completely out of her comfort zone. At the Get Lost Lodge, she meets Beckett, a rugged handsome mountain man who is part of the family who owns the lodge.

Oh, man, this book started off so cringey with poor, pathetic, doormat Presley having a reckoning with her half-baked life choices... and two seconds later she's in love with a fellow people pleaser, neither of whom has stood on their own two feet. I thought this romance lacked depth and was too focused on social media, but I enjoyed the way the characters supported each other. This may be the book for you if you like instalove, small town vibes, and found family.

Thank you to St. Martin's Press for gifting me with an ARC to review! All opinions are my own.

“Love, Naturally” by Sophie Sullivan
Swoon worthy Romance, for sure
I fell in love with this story, the characters, and the town, too. There is so much love and romance contained within this story it is inevitable there will be heartache as well as joy as the characters struggle with choices and the challenges to achieve success. You may need a tissue and most likely will have chuckles. Sometimes we just need to stretch the boundaries of our comfort zone to attain our true happy place. Happy Reading ! !
Note: This review expresses my honest opinion.
I received an ARC of this story from the publisher via NetGalley.

This was such a sweet romance! I really loved how both of the main characters had to work through their own individual issues, but they were able to do so while finding one another. There were so many fun moments, and the side characters were perfection!

This is the second book I've ready by Sophie Sullivan and I absolutely loved both!

I found this book such a cute and sweet romance! I completely flew through it, reading it in one sitting. If you're looking for a deep romance, probably not the best pick for you, but if you're looking for a light, casual, and sweet rom-com, this is definitely the book for you!

It's a slow burn, which I really liked. It wasn't like the characters fell in love right away, there was tension and it felt more realistic. The chemistry was great and the tension was perfect! It was definitely a slight spice book so don't expect a whole lot of spice.

Overall, I really enjoyed this one!!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to Netgalley and the Publishers for this Advanced Readers Copy of Love, Naturally by Sophie Sullivan!

This is my first book by Sophie Sullivan. She did a wonderful job of painting a picture of the island, the lodge, the town of Smile, MI. I felt like I was there in so many of the scenes. Northern Michigan holds some of my favorite landscapes and areas to visit/admire. So reading a story set in those areas made me happy.
The story follows Presley, a city girl and Beckett, an outdoorsy single man…while I enjoyed their connection, I was still wanting just a little more. The relationships that are formed between guests and the family members are some of my favorite moments from this book. All in all I enjoyed reading it.

I received this book for free for an honest unbiased review from Netgalley.

I wish more books were this well written. Characters were witty and the setting fantastic.

I breezed through this romance novel, it was so damn sweet! We have Presley who goes on a trip that was really for her and her boyfriend, some camping, fishing, hiking, stuff she isn’t into but he is for sure. Well, that didn’t work out because he’s a douchebag, so she decided to go alone, and this trip gave her exactly what she needed.

Where she is staying is a family business, cute little cabin resort, and it was so easy to fall in love with Beck and his family. The chemistry between Beck and Presley was 🔥🔥, and even the amazing people who were vacationing there too. I love heartfelt romances where the people are amazing, they support each others dreams and aspirations….. and the way Beck wins Presley back after she goes back home???? 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 so freaking sweet! I shed a few happy tears, I’m not going to lie lol.
