Lessons in Heartbreak by Karla SorensenMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was provided an ARC of this book via the author, all opinions are my own.
I absolutely loved this! Ruby and Griffin were the perfect pairing! She is a shy, small-town librarian who lives up to the stereotype with everything in her life being modest, regimented, quiet, and put together. She feels like she is missing out on life and would like to be more spontaneous, but letting things out of her control gives her anxiety. Griffin on the other hand is her exact opposite, he has a reputation for being the life of the party. His agent has "grounded him" for his latest antics and sent him to spend a few weeks in Ruby's small town away from the media. Ruby and Griffin were neighbors growing up, but she moved away. Their reunion might be the perfect opportunity for her to practice putting herself out there and practicing talking to the opposite sex with someone she knows.
There is real chemistry between our two main characters, however neither of them want anything serious to start. They both have their reasons, which we learn as they get to know one another and get more comfortable around each other. I loved that they were vulnerable with each other and that they were so patient with each other. This had some great humous moments and great emotional scenes. I also loved the side characters. I don't want say much more because I feel it would spoil the book. Getting to experience Ruby and Griffin's interactions first hand and unraveling their relationship one bit at a time was such a great experience.
