A Year in Europe. Three unforgettable stories. One unforgettable journey.

Since summer just started for me I thought I should do a book that is great to bring to the beach. Any book by Rachel Hawthorne is a guarantied romance. I have yet to read a book from her that I didn’t like. Even though they’re all somewhat predictable and revolve mainly around the love story, every time I read one of her books I get swept into the story. Plus I think everyone needs a break from the tense paranormal romances at some point. What better time to do this then summer?

These three stories are about three girls who get to spend a year in Europe to go to school there. In each story there’s obviously a romance between the two characters in the title, but Rachel Hawthorne doesn’t just write a light fluffy romance. In each book you feel like you know the characters, they’re very realistic because of Rachel’s amazing writing and story lines.

If you like romance novels or need a break from all the paranormal, you should pick these books up from you library or local bookstore; I would actually recommend any of Rachel Hawthorne’s books, they’re all amazing.
