No last names. No life stories. Those were the rules. Until a baby changes everything...
Once upon a time a cocky, copper-haired tourist sauntered into Zara’s bar. And even though she knew better, Zara indulged in a cure for the small-town blues. It was supposed to be an uncomplicated fling—a few sizzling weeks before he went back to his life, and she moved on. Until an accidental pregnancy changed her life.
Two years later, she’s made peace with the notion that Dave From Brooklyn will never be found. Until one summer day when he walks into her coffee shop, leveling her with the same hot smile that always renders her defenseless.
Hockey star Dave Beringer has never forgotten the intense month he spent with prickly Zara. Their nights together were the first true intimacy he’d ever experienced. But the discovery of his child is the shock of a lifetime, and his ugly past puts relationships and family out of reach.
Or does it? Vermont’s countryside has a way of nurturing even tortured souls. The fields and the orchards—and hard won love—are Bountiful.
If you've read the True North Series then like me Zara's book has been eagerly anticipated! Sarina Bowen you did not disappoint, Zara was a character i really liked from the times we got to see her in the True North Series and her story was perfect for her. If you haven't read any of the series (why ever not!! no seriously you are missing out) then don't worry because it is a series of standalone's with connection in characters.
Bountiful is sweet, addictive and will give you all the feels when you are done. Zara and Dave’s love story was filled with intensity, emotion, and HOTNESS! Once I started i couldn't put it down! I swear this series keeps getting better and better and I NEVER want it to end! I would love Zara's brothers to get their own books!!
"We consumed each other, and I forgot to be afraid."
Dave is a hockey player for the Boston Bruisers he has six weeks off and is spending it in Vermont. From the moment he see's Zara he's drawn to her sassiness. Zara feels she's the girl that men want but don't want long term with. So when the sexy customer who has been coming into her bar makes his feelings clear she makes a decision!! Both want no strings, no broken hearts and no last names. When Dave goes back home, he leaves something behind (that he never expected).
Zara is pregnant! It’s two years later and well....
I loved everything about this book. I loved the characters, the pacing and the relationships. I loved Zara, she was a tough cookie. She made the best out of an uncertain situation and really came into herself, pregnancy was the best thing to happen to her to change her life.
The book really gave you the feels of a normal life and i loved that. There was no ott drama their story played out like real life and it kept me turning page after page. I can't wait for more from Sarina Bowen!!
