Bri
Duval is a hopeless romantic Gerard Fortier is anything but. However the bakery
she works at goes viral thanks to the love lock wall and the matchmakers who
own the bakery put them on the path to meet when travel writer Gerard is sent
to cover the wall the matchmakers and the bakery. The two main characters
couldn’t be more different but that’s what makes for such an interesting story.
That
while this is Bri and Gerard story it’s the secondary characters that stood out
the most to me. Though I did love Bri’s and Gerard’s banter though not everyone
will. I love how the secondary couple show Bri and the reader that love isn’t
always perfect that more often than its messy.
Mabel
and Agnes the bakery owners and matchmakers reminded me of a couple of older people
at my church that love to play matchmaker even when the person they are trying
to match up doesn’t want it.
I
generally don’t cry when I read romances and even made it to chapter twenty
five before i started crying. Mr. Mac was the character that brought tears to
my eyes when he told Bri what he told her in chapter twenty five. I should have
known that it would be the Marine in the book who would bring tears to my eyes.
Mr. Macs love story takes the Marine Corp motto Semper Fidelis to an even more
personal motto for Mr. Mac he’s also the character that i picture my dad being
like at that age for many of the same reasons makes that part of the story
personal for me.
I
love this book and I didn’t want it to end. Not to mention that the author made
me cry and that’s not an easy thing to do.
Readers
who are fans of Betsy’s previous books as well as Becky wades Bradford sisters
series and Jessica Kate will enjoy this book. And those who love Hallmark
movies will love this book.
I received a complimentary copy The Number of Love from the publishers. I was not required to provide a positive review. All opinions expressed are mine alone.
