I'm not ashamed to admit that I read mostly romance. I love a good romance and how it can take you back to that feeling of first falling in love. It's also a great form of escape for me. Instead of thinking about all the negativity in the world, or even my own personal stresses, I can get lost in the story of someone else. Heck, I can even put myself into the story and live vicariously through the main character or even a side character. I know some people don't like romance, and even look down on it, or the people who read it. For me, though, it's not about being intellectual or trying to read deep and meaningful stuff all of the time. It's about enjoyment and escape. That being said, here's my review for a romance from a new-to-me author...

Come Home Again by Nana Malone
This was a first read by this author for me. I was not disappointed! In Come Home Again, I got all the feels of a second chance romance mixed with a friends to lovers type romance or childhood sweetheart romance as well.
I love the back story of how Delilah and Nate. I especially loved Delilah's family and I am so excited to know that this is the first in a series about them. I think it really says something when and author can make us feel that strongly about a person or a group of people in their book. Especially from the first book in the series like this.
Two of the characters creeped me out from the very beginning. Another one was uncovered after a bit, so there are three characters in the story that really had me wanting to do some violence. Again, when an author makes you feel that strongly about a character, good or bad, that's a testament to their talents.
The emotions and the heat were consistent through the story. I was never bored, I was kept intrigued and invested through the whole book. If you like romance, especially that with a bit of spice, but also a bit of intrigue and action, you're going to enjoy this book!
