Love in Due Time
Love in Due Time | L.B. Dunbar, Smartypants Romance
4 posts | 5 read
Naomi Winters will be forty--soon-ish--and she's only been with one man. One night. One time. Long ago. She believes everything happens for a reason, and the universe spoke about Nathan Ryder. Nathan Ryder isn't the same man who hightailed his bike out of Green Valley eighteen years ago. As a rule breaker, women are one area he acts a fool. Case in point...the local librarian. He can't get a read on her, but she's one risk he's willing to take. Again. What do an eccentric librarian and a sexy silver biker have in common? More than you think. The due date on their love might not be expired after all. 'Love in Due Time' is a full-length, contemporary romantic comedy, can be read as a standalone, and is book#1 in the Green Valley Library series, Green Valley World, Penny Reid Book Universe.

This book was just okay. It was difficult to keep track of what was a flashback and what was present day. It switches off every few paragraphs without italicizing or using separate chapters labeling the year. While that strategy works well on tv, it made it really difficult to follow the story. Still a cute romantsy novel between a librarian and “bad boy” leather jacket-wearing, motorcycle-riding, father of 2 girls. #Booked2021 #MustacheonCover

I really appreciated L. B. Dunbar's Love in Due Time, the first book in the Green Valley Library series, continuing the run of novels set in Penny Reid's Green Valley, Tennessee. This novel is so refreshing, focusing on librarian Naomi Winters and construction worker Nathan Ryder who are 40 . . . or, at least, close to 40 (gasp!). They had a single romantic encounter 20 years ago, ⬇️

UnabridgedPod which ended when Nathan promised to call Naomi and then disappeared from their small town. Naomi has spent those decades building up a protective wall around herself, avoiding any chance of being hurt again.⠀

Now, Nathan is back in Green Valley with his two daughters and a fond memory for the girl he met so long ago. ⬇️

UnabridgedPod I haven't read many romance novels about people who are my age, and this was as sweet and sexy as I'd hoped. While I wouldn't place it on the same tier as Reid's work, it's a nice addition to this array of books.⠀

Have you read any romances that focused on older characters? (And how depressing is it that I'm now in that "older" category?!)

This was ok, not quite what I‘d hoped for, a bit too formulaic. I enjoyed the premise, I always love a librarian story, and it was nice being back in Green Valley Tennessee. It was fun to see the Winston brothers and their families pop through parts of the story too. All in all, I give this one a 3.5/5. And I‘m at 19 hrs, 46 min for the #24b42020 #readathon #wintergames #elfies @Andrew65 @TheReadingMermaid @StayCurious @Clwojick @Bookwormjillk

Andrew65 Great time. 👏👏👏🙌 4y

I have accomplished #24b42020!! I‘m going to keep going to see how far I can go today for #WinterGames. I finished tagged and it was a fine small town/kinda MC/nerdy heroine romance. I‘ve read better but it was cute. Bonus for older protagonists! #romantsy #TeamElectricSex
