Gone Country (Gone in Love) by Katrina Marie – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Gone Country by Katrina Marie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this heartwarming and lighthearted romantic comedy and I felt engaged with the main characters, Stella and Johnny. Stella is an independent and driven workaholic city girl who is willing to move to a small town temporarily to prove that she deserves a promotion. However, things do not go as planned when Stella ends up with her car in a ditch but luckily local mechanic Johnny comes to her rescue. Jonny offers to show her everything the town has to offer, including “other activities”, but with no strings attached as he’s not looking for a relationship. This is perfect for Stella as she’s not planning on staying in Asheville.
The more time the couple spend together they both start to wonder if their relationship could be more long term but Stella is still intent on her promotion and Johnny’s ex girlfriend is also a complication for the couple. I loved the characters and the chemistry between Stella and Johnny came across in the story from when they first met. I also liked the relationship between Stella and her cousins, Audrey and Tiffany and enjoyed their witty banter. The storyline flowed well and the plot had me happily turning the pages. An enjoyable and engaging read which I recommend and I look forward to reading Tiffany’s story next in the series.
