I fully admit that romance is not my go-to genre. But when the book is the debut novel written by a fellow reader and wonderful person, I will pick it up every time. An Unexpected Path represents my favorite kind of pleasant surprise.
Two main characters, both broken and a bit oblivious to it. Supporting characters who are funny, supportive and fully imagined. A dog… or twenty-one. Put them together with a storyline that is unique and creative, and you have the perfect feel-good story.
Reading this going into the holiday season helped get me out of a reading slump, and definitely boosted my overall mood.
Meg, I am so proud of you! You reached for the stars, and reached them! Can’t wait to read Nellie and Teddy’s story.
