Book Review of Love on a Dime (Ladies of Summerhill, Bk 1)

Love on a Dime (Ladies of Summerhill, Bk 1)


I thought this book was really cute but while reading it I felt like the story was going around and around in circles over and over again with me saying to myself, "Didn't they already had this conversation before?" The plot and the characters were great and I like how things tied together but it was predictable, though it never bored me at all (to where I kept reading and reading without wanting to put it down - so I barely did).

Lilly felt called by God to write Dime novels in order to portray morals that lead people to trusting in God. However, because she is of high society, she is scared of what being an author of dime romance novels will do to her family's reputation.

Six years earlier she gave her heart to Jackson who was also scared of his own reputation, since he came from a poor family. He loved her but left her to find his fortune so he might be worthy of Lilly. Now he's back but her life has moved on. Can she keep her secret from everyone? Can she still move on with her life with him around?
