Some describe me as a quirky, free-spirited journalist who charges her crystals by moonlight. They’re not wrong. My instincts ensure I know everything that goes on in my small town. And not much surprises me. But when the man who destroyed my heart returns to care for his family’s business, I’m shaken to the core. After our messy breakup, Hayden Shaw swore he’d never come back to Valentine, Texas. Years later, I’m still trying to forget we ever existed. Damn near impossible when he’s now everywhere. A constant reminder of what could have been. Rumors swirl about his true intentions, but a little gossip has never bothered me. However, if winning over my heart is his end game, he can hang up his spurs because I won’t make the same mistake twice—or will I? Spill the Sweet Tea is a second chance, brother’s best friend, hate to love you, grumpy/sunshine contemporary small-town southern romance with rom-com vibes and a happily ever after. Each book in the Valentine Texas series is a stand-alone. Warning: this romance book contains tons of southern sass, lots of woo-woo, and small-town gossip! Fade to black and cheating are not included.
REVIEW
Reviewer: Heidi
Rating: 4.5 Groupie Stars
Oh to be back in Valentine and it’s people is like a breath of fresh air ! It was good for my soul to catch up with old friends …..
Kingsley comes from a big family and when I say big I kid you not , she’s one of 10 kids ! She has 5 brothers and 4 sisters 😱🥰 yup there’s alot of love in that family and when she’s woken up by her “delinquent “ brother Harrison the fun begins … reality checks out and book bubble checks in 😉🥰📚
Kingsley loves her crystals ✔️, tarot cards ✖️and her journal ✔️ she’s funny , has sass and I love her little pep talk “ I am smart . I am lucky . I am talented .” Let’s not forget her love of coffee@ Grinding Beans , she’s also the local journo and the town paper but she wanted to be a novelist but after her breakup with Hayden she wrote that off ( pardon the pun 🤣🫣) and she’s not shy to let everyone know how she feels about Hayden , it’s as if his name isn’t to be mentioned because if you do you’ll face her wrath …. Oh this is going to be fun because Hayden is heading home !
Hayden’s family owns the local bookstore MAIN STREET BOOKS and they’re about to celebrate their 100th birthday and Kingsley needs to make them shine , make a fuss and celebrate them but her heart is heavy thanks to her history with Hayden but she wants her “ Dear Kingsley “ column so her has to put on her big girl knickers and head on to get her interview… imagine her shock when she gets Mr Shaw Jnr and not his dad
Now the bookstore was started 100 years ago , it’s origins are so romantic and when I read it I just fell in love !
“ My great grandmother loved reading so much that my great grandfather built her a bookstore . It was a testament to his love for her , a business that survived depressions , recessions and world wars.”
Just reading this again makes me want to read this from the very beginning again ! I know I’ve a problem 🤣🥰📚anc there’s so many soured I want to share ….
The patriarch of the family is in hospital so Hayden came home to help his sister Hayley run the shop and while he’s moved on he’s never really forgotten Kingsley and we all know what small towns are like and they’re all rooting for the 2 to get back together but they’re first going to sit back and enjoy the entertainment and drama unfold and I’m not embarrassed to admit it but I’m so excited to have been part of it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kingsley and Hayden navigate their way back to each other and the journey is filled with tears , laughter, drama , heartache and alit of entertainment! They get to write their story and it’s swoon worthy and sugary sweet !
There was so much to love about this story and like I said escape into a bubble I mean there’s a bookstore involved what is not to love!?
A definite re read for me !!!
