About this ebook

When you’ve lost nearly everything, can you trust enough to put your heart on the line?

As a fly fishing guide, Sam Halvorsen is a woman in a man’s world and she’s heard enough bad jokes about rods to last a lifetime. When she takes Graham Evans out on the water, her goal is to get her payday and deposit the handsome librarian back on dry land.

Yet not only does Graham have an adorable dog, he respects her skills and knowledge. Sam finds herself confiding in him about her grief and fear of abandonment following the death of the grandmother who raised her. Even more surprising, she finds herself giving into the attraction and passion between them.

Sam never expected to find the love of a man who sees her for exactly who she is. But just as she’s starting to trust her feelings for Graham, a letter arrives, bringing with it a torrent of family secrets and lies that could ruin everything.

This book felt very real to me. It's not often that I read a book and see a lot of myself in the female main character, but that is what happened with this one. Sam is an extremely independent person and has a hard time accepting help from other people. At one point in the books she calls herself "a mess" and while she thinks that is a bad thing, Graham reassures her that even if she is, it's okay. Talk about relatable! The romance between Graham and Sam is a slow burn and it was perfect for them. They both have issues to deal with, especially Sam, when it comes to being in relationships and they needed to work through them. Graham was patient and Kudos to the author for making Sam a fly fishing expert. I knew nothing about it and learned a little while reading this book. Mostly that it seems like it is a very hard thing to do! There is also a secondary plot concerning Sam and her family that I was really intrigued by. I am a fairly new reader of this author and so far I've enjoyed everything I've read from her. And I'm looking forward to reading the subsequent books in this series!

If you’re looking for a slow burn romance, then Angling for You is for you. This is the story about Samantha, a fly fishing guide, and Graham, a college librarian. He first notices her in the library and considers her off-limits. He doesn’t date students. When Graham’s father leaves him his prized Phillipson bamboo fly rod, he thinks maybe it’s time to try fishing again. He books a session and turns out his guide is Sam. It took me a little bit to get into this book, but once I did, I really enjoyed all the different characters. I won’t leave any spoilers, but I will say it’s a good read. You have to wait until halfway through the book for things to heat up, so grab your copy and give this new-to-me author a try. I received an advance reader copy of this book and this is my voluntary and honest review.
