Juniper Hill

Another absolutely amazing story from Devney Perry and the Eden family! I loved Knox and Memphis's story so so much. Juniper Hill follows Knox, a grumpy Eden brother and restaurant owner and chef, and Memphis, a single mother trying to escape a toxic life and family in New York and start give her and her son a fresh start. As a parent, I could relate to Memphis's depth of love of and devotion to her son, Drake. Knox's story and his history absolutely broke my heart and his healing was just so heartwarming. I loved seeing him step into the role that he did with such love even though he was so scared because of his past. Another thought provoking mysterious subplot, and while I predicted a bit of the twist, the author still got me with other parts of it. This is a forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine romance with tension that I absolutely ate up. In my opinion this book was spicier than Indigo Ridge as far as the explicitness of the scenes. I don't do a pepper rating because I feel like it's so subjective and everyone is so different. Juniper Hill is an adult romance, 18+ for sexual content
