Series: Colorado Clearbrook Trilogy #1
4 STARS: I Really Liked It

In this clean contemporary romance, the descendants from THE CLEARBROOKS (the author’s historical series set in Regency England) are now settled in modern-day Colorado.

Widower and millionaire Tanner Clearbrook is livid when his matchmaking father secretly hires beautiful Hannah Elliot as tutor to his young son. However, the couple want nothing to do with each other, that is, until one little boy brings them together. But can their love survive a shattering secret?

My Thoughts:
I really enjoyed The Clearbrooks series by this author so when I saw this new series about the desendents of the Clearbrooks I had to read it. I’m happy I did!

The story was told from both Hannah’s and Tanner’s POV. Hannah and Tanner met in the most awkward way for Hannah. It was pretty funny and really realistic. Hannah was sweet and caring and somewhat emotionally broken from a past relationship. Tanner was confident and kind but recovering from his own sad past. I was interested to see how they would work out their own emotions and find their way together.

Fritz, Tanner’s dad, hired Hannah to tutor Tanner’s eight year old son Jeremy. That kid was such a cutie. It was sweet to see Tanner as a dad. Fritz was a spunky and hilarious addition to the characters.

This was a beautiful and sweet romance with a charming gentleman of a man. I really enjoyed immersing myself in this book. I wish the two other brothers who are the main characters in the next books were featured more in this first one. Each of the three brothers were amazing in their own way. You’ll want to have all three books ready to read because this is a fun and relaxing clean romance to hide in for a few days.
