![]() I just love a sunshine meets grump story, and I found myself laughing out loud so often while reading this book. ![]() In this first book she definitely comes off as a bit of a bulldozer. That book is all about her, so we learn more about what makes her tick and why she does the things she does. ![]() Lana is the character that I don’t think I would have liked very much if I hadn’t read the second book in the series before this one. Zoey Caldwell has always wanted to visit Alaska, it’s a major bucket list item for her, so when her friend Lana Montgomery invites her to come stay while she’s in town it’s like a dream come true. And Graham hates tourists….until he meets Zoey. Graham Barnett is a local to Moose Springs, Alaska, and runs The Tourist Trap, a burger joint that despite the name just seems to be attracting more and more tourists. You can read my review for the second book Mistletoe and Mr Right here, and the third book Enjoy the View here. In fact, because I read the second one first I had some extra background knowledge on the characters in this book which I actually think made me like them more. This is the first in the Moose Springs, Alaska series and while I read them out of order I don’t think it ruined anything for me.
