A Story To Love, Treasure & Reread - Over And Over
Award-winning author Julie Lessman has not only come up with the perfect ending to The Heart of San Francisco novel series with "Surprised By Love" but also one of her very best novels.
Shy, wallflower Megan McClare leaves her home in San Francisco for a year's study in Paris and returns in 1904 with a new-found confidence and beauty that takes her family and friends by surprise. None are more surprised than best friend Bram Hughes and Devin Caldwell (who teased and mocked her in school).
Sparks fly when Meg accepts an internship at the district attorney's office and discovers she will be working alongside Devin. A romantic triangle ensues for Meg when Bram becomes more than a best friend and Devin also becomes enamored with her charms. Readers of the previous two novels in the series will be thrilled by the advances made in the love/hate relationship between Meg's mother, Caitlyn, and Meg's uncle - Logan.
Once again, Julie Lessman has given readers a novel with a beautiful story line - full of passion, angst and romance - that will entertain and inspire, provoke emotions from laughter to anger to tears, endear them to it's realistic characters, surprise with unexpected "twists and turns" and leave them wanting yet more of the heart-warming McClare family - after they turn the final page with it's happy ending. "Surprised By Love" - a novel you will love, treasure and reread again and again!!!!

Perhaps my favorite of this series
Perhaps my favorite of this series. I could not put it down. I just finished one all-nighter read, had breakfast, and enjoyed a snowy day read of this book. I hope Blake's story will be written to continue this series!

The queen of sweet sass and romance!
Surprised by Love follows the middle daughter in the McClare family, Megan. Once a shy girl bullied by her classmates, Meg finishes her final year of school in Paris where she undergoes a transformation that leaves her family stunned. But no amount of exterior tweaking could fully erase the hurts from her past.
Abraham ?Bram? Hughes was always Meg's council and closest friend, but when she returns home there are many changes in the works, and not only the ones Meg has brought. Bram's developing feelings are as unwelcome as they are surprising because he has his own hurts that he must face.
Cue the sweet agonizing ride.
Ms. Lessman has done a fabulous job, as always, building a story filled with love, forgiveness, intrigue, laughter, and a deep faith in God. The questions of how it will all turn out made this a book to be devoured for me. I finished Surprised by Love in less than 7 hours.
The family dynamics and fireworks were definitely booming in this book. With Caitlyn and Logan's relationship finally reaching that critical point of will they or won't they, I was surprised to find myself rooting for Logan. The angst of being denied his one true love definitely worked a number on him, both mentally and spiritually. After not liking his autocratic ways in the two previous books, he became a favorite of mine in Surprised by Love.
I'm going to put my hope out there into the virtual universe with the hope that Ms. Lessman sees this: Please, please, please let Jess and Blake end up together!!!
5 well deserved stars, or hearts, or cupcakes, or cute dancing penguins, whatever works, for the Queen of sweet sass and romance.
