Mars... With Venus Rising by Hope Dougherty - Reivew

I received this book from Litfuse Group in exchange for a fair and honest review

Published: August 28, 2015

Number of pages: 346

Genre: Romance

Synopsis:

A meddling horse, paper bag floors and a flying saucer on the town square. The little town of Mars has it all--including a brand new resident who might spell heartache for one of its own.

Twenty-something Penn Davenport yearns for an exciting life in the big city and wants to shed the label of orphan that she's worn for years. To achieve that dream, she must pass the CPA exam then move away from the two aunts who reared her after her parents died in a plane crash.

When John Townsend-full of life and the joy of living-moves to town, he rattles Penn's view of herself, her life, and her dreams...which isn't such a bad thing until she falls for him... and discovers he's a pilot.

What did I think of this book:

This is the first book I have read by this author and it was such a fun quick read for me. I loved the cover too it was so bright and colorful. Penn's aunts were so fun and I enjoyed hearing about them in the story. I also liked all the food references and the few recipes that were included. I thought there were some real life situtations that a lot of people can relate to. The book was very light to me and a very quick read. It was fun how Penn and John played off of each other. I think this only added to the quirkyness of this story. I will be looking for more books by this author.
