Unlikely in Love (A Parker Lake Novel Book 1) by Olivia Sherwood – Review by Ashley Dover

Unlikely in Love by Olivia Sherwood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book! The location, the people, the friendships, and the atmosphere of family is just memorable. Growing up in small town USA, I can understand the camaraderie that is built between members of the same community.

Annabelle Cleaver was raised by her grandmother, Sophie, at her farmhouse on the outskirts of Parker, Oklahoma. Sophie has just passed away, and after some neglect during her grandmother’s illness, Annie has to start to put the farm back into working order. Everything needs repairs from the house to the barn. It’s going to be a long, hot summer.

Wyatt Holloway has returned to Parker after serving three tours in Afghanistan with the Army. He has returned home scarred both mentally and physically. Physically, there’s a scar that runs down the side of his face. Mentally, he suffers from PTSD which causes him to go to dark places when he’s not busy and causes his night terrors.

Call it fate, or perfect timing, but Wyatt’s dad encourages him to go out to Annie’s farm to see if she needs any help. Reluctantly, Wyatt drives out to the farm and is spellbound by the adult version of Annabelle Cleaver. Annie cautiously agrees to have him come to help her on the farm.

How will this partnership between a grieving Annie and a scarred Wyatt help them both?
