Rock And A Hard Place by Juliana Smith
4.0
This beauty of a romance released yesterday and I am here for all of it’s second chance, Parent Trap vibes goodness!
Marigold and Liam are divorced co-parents of 10 year old twin boys, Miles and Dallas. They have wonderful family around them, support and other friendships, they are just not together as a couple and do not spend much time together …. Until they are thrown into the deep end working on a school project.
I love how the author includes the reality of parenthood, the chaotic times, the feeling of losing one’s self identity and the fact that marriage is hard work. Liam is a pure delight, doesn’t deter from his responsibilities and makes it clear in his actions he wants this relationship to have a second chance. Marigold is much more reserved, until she isn’t and I loved seeing her true self shine through again.
There are twin hijinks, fun family dynamics and a romance that slowly develops through forced proximity and memories of a different time. Oh my gosh, these two have all the memories and a highlight for me was reliving Marigold and Liam’s young love!
Rock and a Hard Place is my first read from Juliana Smith and I’ll definitely be reading more. I really enjoyed the whole book! Recommended for romance readers, this is second chance romance at its best.
This book contains kissing scenes only. 4.5 stars
