Gabrielle Murphy has been avoiding Liam Ashton for many, many years. First, he was her student, which she would have never let something happen there, even with only a three year age difference between them. But twelve years later, Gabrielle still denies her feelings for Liam, no matter how obvious of an attraction they both now share…

Sizzle was an angsty and sweet, second chance, small town romance! Gabrielle and Liam never crossed any lines when she was a teacher in Hope Crest, but now that so many years have passed, Liam wants his chance with the woman he has always wanted… he just has to convince her to finally give their love a fighting chance…
Gabrielle returned to Hope Crest to fulfill her grandmothers final wishes, but in her time being back in the small town, she has found the home she has always dreamed of… the only problem? One very determined male who is tired of waiting for Gabrielle to stand up for what she really wants…
Liam is the grouchy farmer who works behind the scenes to provide his family pizzeria with the best, homegrown ingredients. And while he finds joys in the simple life of farming, Liam will never truly be happy until he has Gabrielle in his life… permanently.
This book was a good read with a romance that COULD have been sordid, but featured a character who was deeply concerned about ever crossing any unhealthy barriers. With a small age gap, made insignificant by the passage of time, Gabrielle will need to face her indecision about giving Liam the chance he deserves, even with the possibility of being judged unfairly by the people who know them best…
This was another engaging read in the Ashton Family series. Gabrielle and Liam’s romance was never an easy one to navigate, but in the end, true love wins again!
I received a complimentary copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.
