Say You Still Love Me

Another great read from KA Tucker. This second chance romance alternates between “now” and “then” chapters. The two main characters meet and fall in love as teenagers working as counselors at a sleep away summer camp. It hit me with so much nostalgia that I almost wish this would have been an entire book filled with summer camp romance and shenanigans. The “now” chapters didn't have the same spark at first. I had a hard time connecting with now-Piper. But they definitely picked up and I ended up really enjoying this story.

3.5 Rounded to 4
Piper Calloway and Kyle Miller have a history, one filled with stolen kisses, a summer of young love and a future filled with hope. Until the summer ended and Kyle just disappeared. Thirteen years later he mysteriously  reappears in the building Piper's family owns and where she works. Why is he here after all these years? Why did he break her heart and abandon her? She's determined to find out.

I absolutely loved The Simple Wild and Wild at Heart so I was looking forward to another fun romance filled with heartfelt and teary moments BUT I just didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would. Don't get me wrong...it's a cute story.  The writing is good. The setting is good. I loved the camp scenes and young love timelines and actually wish it was more about that time as I didn't enjoy the present timeline much.

Overall I just had a hard time with the whole rich girl meets poor boy from the wrong side of the tracks that daddy of course doesn't agree with and so comes the heartache and misunderstandings ... BUT for those that love that type of romance trope this book will definitely work for you and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
