Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour & Giveaway for Seasoned by Jayme H. Mansfield, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: Seasoned
Author: Jayme H. Mansfield
Publisher: Lighthouse Publishing
Release Date: November 3, 2020
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Essie White battles loneliness two years after the death of her husband. Her romance-writing daughter suggests that her mother try online dating. Essie agrees, seeking male companionship only, not a love interest.
Widower Lou Rizzo isn’t seeking love either. But he accepts his friend’s dare and posts his profile on the dating site, although he uses an alias to safeguard his identity.
Essie and Lou meet, and their initial attraction soon develops into a friendship neither wants to lose. Lou, however, must confess his part in a decades-old incident that he feels Essie cannot forgive. She, too, harbors secrets that may jeopardize their future together.
As the relationship grows, each must decide whether to reveal the truth about their past mistakes, lost dreams, and fears for a chance to love again.
My Review🖤
Such a cute story!! From the first chapter I was hooked, and literally finished this book in one sitting. Lou and Essie are absolutely adorable, and the fact that they are so advanced in age brings challenges that you don't normally read in other romance novels, including helping adult children, and dealing with widowhood. There are also past secrets, and regrets, that keep the characters entangled in bondage, that adds just the right amount of mystery, and really fleshes out the characters, and keeps the reader engaged and craving to see how everything plays out.
Even though it was mostly predictable,
Seasoned captures your heart and imagination. You find yourself rooting for forgiveness, letting go of the past, and hoping that love conquers all before it's too late.
The writing of Jayme H. Mansfield is wonderful! This is the first book I've read by this author and it won't be my last! I thought the age of the characters would make this read interesting and I wasn't wrong. It's the perfect weekend read that is "seasoned" perfectly!
