GRIT, an all-new standalone, friends-to-lovers romance in the 7th and Main series by Elizabeth Hunter is NOW LIVE!







He’s been patient; she’s been busy.
Patience is running out.
Melissa Oxford is a widow with a ranch, an orange grove, a goat-obsessed ten-year-old, and not enough time. She doesn’t have time to make friends. She doesn’t have time to stop and chat, and she definitely does not have time for a boyfriend.
Which is fine, because Cary Nakamura is far from being a boy. Cary’s the man who helped Melissa plant her trees. The friend who keeps offering advice, even when she’s is too stubborn to take it.
He’s also the man who kissed Melissa in broad daylight on a sidewalk in Metlin, California, smack in the face of God and everyone.
But while Melissa may spend a little too long dreaming about Cary from a distance, she knows the kind of passion he promises is more than she can handle.
She just doesn’t have the time.
But sometimes, no matter how busy you are, life makes you stop. It pulls you up short and makes you see things a little more clearly. Things like…
The people you can count on.
The dreams you keep pushing away.
And the passion that can’t be denied.
GRIT is a stand-alone, friends-to-lovers romance in the Love Stories on 7th and Main series by Elizabeth Hunter, author of INK.

***5 Stars***

I don’t typically read a book in a series out of order, even when it is noted that said book can be read as a complete stand-alone, and I rarely ever do it when it comes to a new to me author, but something about the description of Grit just...hooked me and had me NEEDING to meet these characters and experience their journey to their HEA and I was not disappointed in any way. It hit all the right buttons for me and has me looking forward to more from this author and world, as well as trying to figure out how to get the first two books in the series slotted into the TBR list so I can read them sooner rather than later.

I adored Cary and Melissa. Cary is a good, hard working, man who is content in his life. He loves the land, his family, his town and the life he leads. Melissa has been dealt a quite a few unexpected blows to her heart, but her love of her daughter and an inner strength that is made of titanium pushed her to pick herself up and find a way to live. She’s sweet, sassy and is in no way a push over.

Melissa and Cary’s journey to their HEA is a mixed bag of tropes ~ friends to lovers, single parent, second chance ~ and were woven together so well that it was so easy to get lost in them. The mutual respect and genuine adoration they had for each other, on all levels, made it easy to believe that they could have that elusive HEA. There are a few bumps in their road, though nothing was OTT angsty, they were all everyday, easy to understand concerns when it comes to being a single parent and not wanting to mess up a rock solid friendship.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The writing was engaging, pacing was good and the dual 3rd person POV done very well. The drama in the story was well done and didn’t overshadow the evolution of Cary, Melissa and Abby’s relationship. And speaking of Abby, I adored this girl. She brought all kinds of light and depth to the story. And as for the other characters ~ I adored Joan, Rumi, Stu, Leigh, Ox and Leigh and the various other members of the town that popped up every now and then.
