Presley goes to surprise her boyfriend with a "man" trip to fish and hike, and he breaks up with her. She takes the trip without him, and this is the story of her bravery and unexpectedly learning what love really is. I enjoyed this story. I really enjoyed Beckett's family and their backstory, as well as the other guests at the lodge. I did think there wasn't much of a story problem with the main characters, nothing really to be resolved at the end. If you're looking for a fun vaca read, you've got it here!

This was cute but not super memorable. I liked the Michigan setting and some of the different things Presley tried. However, I kept thinking that she was going to be more city girl but instead she's an influencer and that plays a big role in the story. The insta-romance had me rolling my eyes a few times (I get why it had to happen that way since she was there for a limited time, but it's just not my thing). I also got bored with the constant talk about everything at the camp that needed to be fixed.

Kindly received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I received an arc from the publisher and I’m very torn on how I feel about this book.

Love Naturally is about Presley, a woman who is fresh out of a crappy relationship, who goes on a vacation (that was purchased for that ex) and meets the man of her dreams. Beckett is all around perfect. I appreciate the outdoorsy theme in the book but I do feel a lot fell short with this novel.

Beckett and Presley’s love story is a little too easy for me - very generic and insanely perfect. I was waiting for a huge shoe to fall and there to be some conflict in the plot, but it never got there.

This story could have used some complexity and conflict.

Love, Naturally ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An adventurous romcom that had me laughing out loud at times.

Presley is a people pleasing, city girl. After dumping her loser boyfriend, she goes on the outdoorsy vacation she had planned for them. Totally out of her comfort zone! This is where she meets Beckett. The hottie Mountain Man at Get Lost Lodge. Over the course of her stay, she learns a lot about herself and what’s important in life. I loved her character!
Overall, I enjoyed this sweet closed door romance. It had some funny moments and some heartfelt ones as well.

Thank you to NetGalley and St Martin’s Press for giving me an advance reader copy. This is my voluntary, honest opinion.

A wholesome, low-anxiety read with lovable characters. It was a pleasure to get acquainted with Presley, Beckett, and the town of Smile.

Presley is unceremoniously dumped by her boyfriend after she plans a thoughtful 10-day getaway for the two of them at the Get Lost Lodge. Totally floored, she decides to step out of her comfort zone and make the best of her time off. Presley soon discovers the power of letting go and trying new things.

This was a cute story. I definitely sensed the chemistry between Presley and Beckett. I did find it a bit far-fetched that paying guests were doing things like washing dishes and helping renovate rooms (and staying in private cabins) but I suppose that added to the homey feeling of the lodge. Recommended to fans of small town, insta-love, and opposites attract romance. 3.5 stars.

Thank you very much to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this sweet read.

The absolute cutest story of a city girl going out of her comfort zone to a cabin adventure. She dives into the lives of the family who owns a cabin and falls in love and discovers more about herself.

Absolutely loved this— would’ve loved a bit more steam but it was honestly perfect just the way it was. I LOVE that there was no real unnecessary break up/fight between the 2 of them at the end and that the love between them was so real & evident that it just worked the whole time.

I spend so much time in the outdoors that it felt that the outdoorsy nature portion of the book was written so beautifully and the lodge was such a perfect setting for Presley & Becketts love story to play out. Sophie Sullivan is officially an automatic read author for me because of this book 😍

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Presley planed a vacation with her boyfriend, which does not go as planned. The vacation foes not get off to the best start, but she forges ahead. I liked this book.

Completely lovable. Presley quickly dumps her cringey boyfriend (we love a quick X of the wrong guy), and travels to adorable Get Lost Lodge. Beckett is surrounded family and kind friends as he helps his brother with his floundering outdoor lodge business. The small town on the nearby island is full of quirky supporters of the Kessler family and Get Lost Lodge. I loved watching Presley grow into herself and lose some people pleasing qualities. Spicy scenes are fade to black/closed door. If you loved The Suite Spot by Trish Doller like I did, this has wonderfully similar vibes!

"She’d learned that having a solid plan didn’t always make something pan out. Maybe it was time to stop being so careful. Stop thinking before she acted. Beckett made her want to do nothing more than feel. Everything. He made her want to go barreling down that slippery slope headfirst. She might end up buried under an avalanche of hurt, but as he’d said about her, she got the feeling he’d be worth it. More than that? She was worth the leap."

"“I think we fool ourselves into believing there’s a ‘right time’ for all of the things we want. But really, life does what it wants, and we need to seize the opportunities we have when they present themselves.”

I am always happy to read a fellow Canadian author's work!! The premise drew me in immediately and I was convinced to stay by the amazing setting that Sophie Sullivan created in the town of Smile and the Get Lose Lodge! It makes you want to run away to the mountains and renovate your own little cabin.

This was such an adorable and endearing love story that really puts a lot of things into perspective. I loved the message of grasping your own happiness whenever you can and taking that leap of faith. both Presley and Beckett were such relatable characters, and were backed up by a full cast of extremely entertaining side characters. I am very much hoping that we get to continue with each of the siblings own books in the future!!

You will not regret picking up this funny, charming, adorable romance that makes for the absolute perfect summer read!

Book : Love, Naturally

Thank you NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, & the author for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Oh my gosh this is just what my mood reading self needed! I read this while on vacation and it was the perfect little story to pull out while relaxing and read. I read this in one sitting from front to back and how I adored this. This particular storyline/plot is centered around belonging and acceptance which I think is a wonderful topic to have. I fell in love with the characters, the places and I laughed so many times out loud that I lost count. I love Sophies writing style and her characters and storyline/plot was perfection. I had absolutely not a single complaint about this.

I will be purchasing a copy for my shelf and I am going to be sharing this book with all of my romcom loving friends! This is a must read for anytime but a great one for the summer time!!! BRAVO!

3.5⭐A charming, cute.. opposites-attract romance, which features instant love and closed-door romance.

Beckett assists Presley as she disembarks from a shaky boat onto Lodge land. However, it becomes apparent that she has made a mistake. Despite not enjoying activities such as hiking, fishing, or nature in general, she embarked on this trip. Nevertheless, Beckett is preoccupied with other concerns, such as a deteriorating lodge and his own unfulfilled aspirations.

The overall atmosphere was warm and happy, and there was a healthy mix of challenges and victories. However, I couldn't quite relate to the instant love between Beckett and Presley, as they fell for each other deeply and rapidly.

Thank you Netgalley and Publisher for the eARC. All opinions are my own.

Presley is an associate concierge at a fancy hotel. She is looking forward to a vacation with her boyfriend after buying them a fishing trip for his birthday. Hoping this will bring them to the next level, she finds out Emmett is not interested in a long-term commitment. Presley decides to take the trip alone.

Presley is not into the fishing, boating, hiking, etc. that is offered at the lodge but she is determined to get the most out of the trip. Presley meets Beckett as they travel on a boat to get to the lodge. She is doing her best not to get seasick. Becket’s family owns the lodge and there are a lot of improvements to be made if it is to be successful. There is an instant attraction between Presley and Becket. I loved this book. Becket’s sister, brothers and sister’s little girl are priceless. They interact with the those at the lodge and everyone seems to be family. It was heartwarming to experience the special people drawn to the lodge. Becket and Presley both have dreams but decide it is worth the broken hearts when they part. I loved the respect and support Presley and Becket had from his family, the towns people, and those at the lodge. Lots of love and fun in the book with the notion that you can make something great by letting things fall in place.

"I want you to think about what you really want and go for it no matter who gets left behind. I want you to be happy and fulfilled. I want you to not be so scared of things being different that you don't walk away from love."

I LOVED this story. It was a very cozy and easy read for me.

Presley has worked hard in current job and life. She wants to surprise her boyfriend, Emmett, with a ten day getaway to the Get Lost Lodge. Turns out, Emmett is not ready for a couple's retreat with Pres, and they promptly break up leaving Presley to vacation alone in a place where she is not sure she will even enjoy. Enter Beckett, brother to the owner of the GLL and they both are instantly attracted but try to keep some boundaries due to the fact that she is only there for a short period of time.

I loved Beckett's dedication to his family & to the small town that he grew up in. It was a very likable trait, and relatable how he questioned his own life decisions based on those that were around him.

I used to work at a hotel front desk, so I related to Presley's stress of her job and some of her frustrations that came along with it. I also loved that she still decided to take this vacation even when it wasn't a vacation that she thought that she wanted.

Also, Ollie wants hands down the cutest character and I loved her so much.

I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an easy romance that you won't want to put down!

Thank you to Netgalley & St. Martin's Press for providing me with an early copy of this book. The opinions are my own and are not influenced by anything other than myself!

Dead on the floor. Literally read this is in one day and ate it up. Will be buying this once it comes out so I can read it again

Getting lost has never been so sweet! The perfect summer read to sink into. A story about love, found family and seizing the opportunities life puts in your path.
Presley is a successful hotel concierge, she has dreams and goals even if she has tunnel vision about them sometimes. After planning a trip for her boyfriend of 8m where they will stay at a fishing lodge called get lost for ten days, only to have him tell her he’d rather go with someone else, Presley does something she never thought she would. She breaks things off with him and goes on the trip alone. The problem is she’s not an outdoors,hiking, and fishing type of girl. Feeling a little lost but determined to make the most of it anyway she sets out to find herself. Beckett is intrigued by this city girl who seems to have no clue when it comes to being outdoors. She seems a bit lost, something he can relate to given all he’s juggling and the decision about his future he needs to make. He doesn’t have time for a fling with a guest; he has to help his brother with the lodge, figure out his next steps and figure out a way to talk to his family. It’s true what they say though opposites really do attract and connection these two have develops quickly and is stronger than either we’re prepared for.

This was a super sweet book, there was lots of mutual pining and at times felt very insta love. This is usually not my favorite trope in a romance but these characters develop a pretty deep connection fairly quickly. She’s only there for ten days but the story manages to be jammed packed with sweet and romantic moments. There was great humor but also got really deep about how life is full of moments that change you and can lead you down a different path, but it’s our job to seize the opportunities when we can. I loved the found family aspect of this book, the side characters were fabulous and honestly Ollie stole the show several times! For a while I felt the story was pretty slow paced and it took me a minute to really get lost in the story but I thoroughly enjoyed these characters and their chemistry was fantastic. It can be hard to show that type of chemistry in a closed door romance but Sophie has a knack for it. This was a 4 star read for me and a book I’d definitely recommend. Here are some tropes and micro tropes you’ll find in Love Naturally


-opposites attract
-closed door romance
-insta connection
-city girl in the outdoors
-sunshine x sunshine
-social media influencer
-hot mountain man
-found family
-small town


Thank you NetGalley and St.martins press for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book is such a cozy vacation read and I was so happy to hear that this is going to be part of a series! If I could visit the lodge and this town I would in an instant. Beckett and Presley were so perfect and fell in love fast but it felt so right when reading it. I can't wait to see them pop up in the future books.

I really loved this book. The characters were great. It was a quick read, well I couldn't put it down. I was hooked to this cute romance.

This book came at such a perfect time, as I was enjoying a weekend camping I started this book and just HAD to read it start to finish in one day! Presley, a young woman who thinks she has it all together, meets Beckett at his family's cabin/lodge retreat. The unlikely pair connect almost immediately, and boy oh boy do the sparks fly! I love forced proximity and instant chemistry, so the limited timeline trope did not sway me from loving this story!

I looooved this book! It was incredibly cute and charming. Though it is an insta-love situation, I hadn't even realized it until reading other reviews, which shows how nicely it was done. The book is written in third person, but still gives dual POV, which is very nearly a must have for me when I am choosing a book to read. It is also a closed door romance, which I think fits with wit and charm of it all.

Sophie Sullivan created an amazing cast of characters- not only the two leads, but also the numerous side and background characters that brought life to the story. I certainly picked up on openings where this could become a series following the siblings? At least I hope so!
