Heartwarming, Small-Town Romance | Just Look Up by Courtney Walsh

ABOUT THE BOOK

After tirelessly climbing the ranks of her Chicago-based interior design firm, Lane Kelley is about to land her dream promotion when devastating news about her brother draws her back home—a quaint tourist town full of memories she’d just as soon forget. With her cell phone and laptop always within reach, Lane aims to check on her brother while staying focused on work—something her eclectic family doesn’t understand.

Ryan Brooks never expected to settle down in Harbor Pointe, Michigan, but after his final tour of duty, it was the only place that felt like home. Now knee-deep in a renovation project that could boost tourism for the struggling town, he is thrilled to see Lane, the girl he secretly once loved, even if the circumstances of her homecoming aren’t ideal.

Their reunion gets off to a rocky start, however, when Ryan can’t find a trace of the girl he once knew in the woman she is today. As he slowly chips away at the walls Lane has built, secrets from his past collide with a terrible truth even he is reluctant to believe. Facing a crossroads that could define his future with Lane and jeopardize his relationship with the surrogate family he’s found in the Kelleys, Ryan hopes Lane can see that maybe what really matters has been right in front of her all along—if only she’d just look up.
 


MY REVIEW

Once again, Courtney Walsh does not disappoint. I loved reading both Paper Hearts and A Change of Heart, and now, Just Looks Up delivers another heartwarming, small-town contemporary romance that proves just as lovable.

Lane Kelley and Ryan Brooks cross paths in their hometown of Harbor Pointe, Michigan, and becoming reaquainted is no easy task. Both characters have pasts that continue to affect them and must be overcome. As their relationship develops and the truth comes out, Walsh shares a beautiful story of worth and value and discovering what’s really important.

An excellent read for fans of contemporary romance, Just Look Up is an easy book to recommend. I enjoyed it and look forward to reading more from Courtney Walsh in the future.
