Open Door to Love is a very well written romance. This book has a good plot and character dynamics. I recommend this book.

This is a brand new author for me and it was not what I was looking for in a romance. It was a bit more serious than I like my books and so it was just not my cup of tea but it was well written and if you want a book with more depth and some big issues I think you will enjoy it.

Jonnie is new to town and has a sensory disorder. David and her share a past interaction and so when they meet again they are attracted. This story had many issues and it was just a bit too much drama for me to enjoy it.

I received Open Door to Love as part of a NetGalley giveaway.

Jonnie Moulton lands in rural Vermont for a new job: attracting visitors and commerce to the town of Somerset and the surrounding region. There she runs into David Chang, a successful hotelier and restauranteur, who had previously met Jonnie in a vulnerable moment three years earlier. Both now in very different places in their lives, they begin to develop a mutual attraction. But Jonnie has been burned before, and despite her very real desires for partnership and family, as those dreams begins to become reality her past may jeopardize her ability to move forward.

I feel like this book had way too much going on and as a result, no plot line felt like it was developed enough: Jonnie's past and family drama, David's family drama, her new job and assimilating into a new town, Jonnie and David's shared past, her sensory disorder, the ideas of race and dual heritage families, Jonnie and David's evolving relationship, the random eleventh-hour villain that showed up and was quickly dispensed with. I was glad Jonnie matured, but I spent a lot of the book strongly disliking her (Demanding a child from a man she drunkenly married and barely knew? Claiming it was too late for her become a parent at age 25[!?]). Even at the end, I wasn't confident in her ability to parent four biracial boys, as there seemed to be a lot of handwaving about the unique and very real challenges posed by interracial adoption. Everything was glossed over in a way that felt flippant and rushed and...not great.
