Genre: Romance

A sweet, funny romance set in rural New Zealand.

Nina is 36, single, and running out of time to start a family. She quits her advertising job, and moves into a small coastal town, in a tiny house on wheels. Surely, the laid back country life with organic veggies will turn back the clock for her. Now, she only has to find the right guy–and it can’t be her odd, new neighbour who doesn’t want kids. No matter how hot he is. This time, Nina is determined to follow the plan, not her heart.

Jay is used to solitary life. After his father’s death, he tries to keep the farm running, even if he’s more comfortable with the veggies than people. But who needs social skills? In the backside of Raglan, nothing ever happens. Until a cute, Finnish blonde moves into the neighbouring lot, in a ridiculous tiny house. Can Jay work out his issues and take a chance on the most exotic thing that’s ever walked into his life?

Work, life, love and all those other big questions that vex us are tackled in this humorous and thought-provoking book, which will stay with you long after you reach the end.

I adored every minute of this book, from beginning to end this story had me enthralled. 

Nina was a character that I really came to care about. She is brave, funny and far too forgiving for her own good (especially when it came to Earth - I could not believe the audacity of that woman). But she is also someone who wants a family, a home, and somewhere to belong. Her actions however come across as a little detrimental to her hopes and dreams. Her little house in the middle of nowhere may give her the freedom of not having to pay rent or a mortgage, but it also means there are not that many available men where she lives. There is of course her neighbour, Jay, but surely a man like him would never be interested in a woman like her?

Jay is so adorable. He is a hardworking man who appears to radiate confidence but is really very shy. The love story between Jay and Nina is a very slow burn. Neither can guess what the other is thinking and neither is brave enough to ask!

This story is filled with friendship, love and humour but there are also some more serious issues which I thought the author dealt with in a very sensitive way.

All in all, I thought the story was beautifully written and so compelling that I read it in one sitting. I will certainly be looking out for more books by this very talented author.

Enni Amanda is a graphic designer moonlighting as a rom-com author, or maybe it's the other way around. In 2006, she and her husband moved from Finland to New Zealand and fell in love with the gorgeous islands and their laid-back people. They spent eight years traveling between the two rather inconveniently located countries, studying filmmaking and running a film festival. Through all the filmmaking, Enni discovered a passion for screenwriting, which eventually led to writing books (a slippery slope). Her heart-warming, funny stories explore real-life issues like identity, found family, and the housing crisis. These days, she lives in the Waikato, close to the rolling hills of the Shire, raising two cute, rambunctious boys while writing away and ignoring housework.
