I hate to say it, but I just couldn't get into this book. It wasn't bad...it just seemed unbelievable. Which, I suppose is the case with most romance novels.

To me, they just fell for each other way too quickly. The insta-love isn't my thing. It also dragged on for me a little bit.

I did really like the setting, the lodge and nature were fun to explore. I did also enjoy the small town, found family type feel. It was cute and humorous at times, but overall, it was hard for me to keep going.

I still gave it 4 stars because it's not a bad book by any means, it just wasn't my personal preference in terms of their relationship and how fast it started. It just didn't feel super realistic to me.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me read this ARC.

Love Naturally by Sophie Sullivan is the perfect rom com. I adored everything about this book and think readers of this genre will definitely enjoy this book. This is one of my favorite rom coms that I’ve read in a long time. I really loved the characters and the vivid settings in this book. I received a digital copy of this book from the publisher with no obligations. These opinions are entirely my own.

This book was a complete cozy romantic escape. I loved it.

She’s a fish out of a water at a resort and he’s the good looking mountain man willing to help her along the way. Their attraction was instantaneous and so was my joy in this book.

This was an easy to read, closed door romance with an instant attraction and found family tropes.

Again, I loved it.

I really loved this book. The main characters and the supporting characters were great. The romance was sweet with a little bit of spice. There was a nice bit of character growth from both MC's. A nice bit of humour, which I always appreciate. Overall, a very enjoyable story. * I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and this is my voluntary and honest review.

Reading a Sophie Sullivan rom-com is like snuggling up with your favorite blanket. It's warm and inviting, cozy and comfortable, and it's the perfect place to spend some time. She just has a way of grabbing your attention and keeping you glued to the pages (or Kindle) the whole way through! Have been a fan of her books, and this new one is no different. Presley is great at her job working in the hotel industry and maintaining a social media presence as a lifestyle influencer. When she presents her boyfriend with a surprise birthday fishing & nature trip, things backfire and she ends up going on the trip alone, where she finds herself at Get Lost Lodge and meets Beckett. So many great moments in this story with all the feels, endearing relatable characters, fun and sexy banter, and moments where I was literally laughing out loud! Definitely check this one out! Thanks so much to Sophie Sullivan, the publisher, and NetGalley for the opportunity to review this e-arc!

Very cute, very funny, super sweet. And I love how supportive the two mains were of each other. But way too instalove for me.

This book kept me absolutely hooked from the get go, this cute romantic story was unlike the books I usually read but was a perfect romance. I really enjoyed the plot and storyline!

This book was a great way to spend a weekend, you didn’t want to put it down until the end! I loved the setting of the Lodge and the characters were well suited for each other.

Sophie Sullivan crossed my radar last year and I fell in love with her book. When I saw this I could not help but run to the request button. Sullivan has this unique talent to draw us into her literary world and take us on an adventure of love and romance in a realistic but uplifting way. She explores the complexities with life, but in a light hearted manner that shows us the good in the world. This book was bursting with brilliant dialogue and both of the main characters were a dream

First of all, I loved the town of Smile- from how it got it’s name to all the quirky and charming locations! I also loved the way Presley not only connected with Beckett, but his whole family! Such a sweet story!

Beckett and Presley are very different people. Presley is a woman who has carefully laid plans, a list of things to accomplish and few close relationships. Beckett put his family above all else, and would make any sacrifice to ensure his siblings and parents are doing well, which often means limiting his opportunities. When Presley unexpectedly finds herself alone, after a break up at a small lodge, she is way out of her comfort zone. Here she finds Beckett where all her plans start to not feel like what she wants in life. This book will make you want to find your own hot mountain man, go hiking, fishing and visit small towns. It was a fun read!

This book was difficult for me to get through. The story taking place over ten days made the slow pacing super tedious. Overall, insta-love romances are always a hit or miss for me, and this one was the latter.

Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin’s Griffin for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

2.5 stars

This was an incredibly sweet book. I found myself wishing I lived in the town of Smile. Presley and Beckett came from different worlds, but they were a perfect match. It was cute watching them try so hard not to fall for each other, yet obviously failing in the process.

Thanks as always to NetGalley for the ARC.

It was certainly cute, though it dragged a bit too much for an insta-love. Plus, I would have loved to see Presley tell off her boss lol that would have been a fun conversation.

Sweet read, the only issue was that it either dragged or (I hate to say it) was too long.

thank you Netgalley for the free copy

⭐️⭐️⭐️.75

Sophie Sullivan’s books always leave me with the biggest smile. they are fun, quirky, and cute!

a city girl meets a mountain man, and finds herself in an environment outside her comfort zone— only to find exactly what she has been missing.

this closed door romance has found family, opposites attract, a small town, and lovable characters- pick this book up when it comes out in January!

thank you to @netgalley and St. Martin’s Griffin for the ARC!

Let me just start this off by saying I devoured this book. Thank you so much to Netgalley and St. Martins Press for allowing me to read an ARC of it. I was so invested in this book and while getting to know the characters and Get Lost as well as the townspeople of Smile I was hoping it would never end. Sophie Sullivans writing is amazing and after reading Love, Naturally I would love to go and buy more of her books. The characters in this book just felt so real to me and sometimes I would forget I was even reading. I usually bring my Kindle with me to work so I can read on my breaks and every single time my break would end my mind wouldn't leave this story I would immediately want to go pick it back up and continue. I don't want to ramble on for too long but I can't wait to hear other people's thoughts on this book when it comes out. I hope they love it just as much as I do.

I DNF this book at 51%
Unfortunately this book was too tedious for me. It went by very slowly and the author wrote each chapter having us read basically every minute of her 10 day trip. So we basically watch the heroine fall madly in love with a man she just met. Since it was only like day 4 at 51% I couldn’t take it anymore. Presley is a city girl who ended up on a remote island wilderness retreat alone because she broke up with her boyfriend when he didn’t want to go with her on this surprise trip. She meets Beckett, part of the family that owns it, and so starts a slow going minute by minute 10 day trip where they fall in love. Also the biggest issue Beckett agonizes over was whether to tell his family he may have a new job or open his own business and how it will hurt them if he can’t help at the retreat. I thought honestly this is childish and way too little of a deal to be so stressed over it through the whole book bringing it up often. I may skim over to the end but honestly I have zero interest in the outcome of their love story. And please when you write in lgbtq characters and add in characters like they/them don’t make it so obvious you’re trying to be an ally. Like who cares that they saw they/them in the parking lot. Maybe if they were a character from the beginning or part of the family they would have been awesome. But it was so forced trying to include all gender pronouns/identities. Everyone wants to be represented but make it flow and make them all just a natural part of the story.

Love, Naturally is Sophie Sullivan’s newest romantic novel and it should not be missed! I have loved all of Sullivan’s previous novels and Love, Naturally was a delight! Presley has planned an epic trip for her boyfriend, but when he dumps her, she finds herself headed to the rugged outdoors in Michigan alone. Pressley prefers the indoors to the outdoors and luxury over rugged, but here she is, determined to conquer her solo trip. In Michigan, Presley finds herself thrust among the guests and family members that own Get Lost Lodge. They’re endearing, complicated and one, Beckett, is more than a little attractive. I loved watching Presely learn about herself, come to the aid of strangers and rally behind Get Lost Lodge. Love, Naturally is an excellent romance book between two seemingly opposite individuals. Anyone looking for a well-written, light and entertaining read will be pleased with Love, Naturally!

A sincere thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I was drawn by this title and cover, but struggled to connect with the story. Thank you for the arc in exchange for an honest review.

Absolutely fantastics. I love all of Sophie's books, and this is no exception. I was a little unsure about people falling in love in a week, but of course she made it work. Sophie has quickly become a one-click author for me.
