Cream and Punishment

Cinnamon-roll book nerd hero, you say? Yes, please!

It was ridiculously easy to fall in love with Tanner, and although I found Lucy at times a bit frustrating, I was rooting for her to finally (!) realize that she and Tanner were just perfect for each other.
I just love Susannah Nix's writing, how she brings her characters to life, and how she manages to balance tougher topics with her special blend of humor and heart (and nerdiness - this time, she had me at “poisoned Nazgûl blade.” :D)

Highly recommended for fans of small-town, second-chance romances with a healthy dollop of meddling friends and family.
