Review:

You’re So Fine by Kieran Kramer is a sweet romance novel. We meet our heroine Lacey at the beginning, as she is traveling with her adopted son, Henry. Lacey, after discovering her actor boyfriend was having an affair, left Hollywood for South Carolina. She wants to put her days in Hollywood far behind, and takes advantage of a rented lighthouse being offered to her for free for a couple of months until she can get her life on track. Lacey is low on funds, but plans to look for a job, while in South Carolina. But before the night is out, an unexpected person arrives to the lighthouse, leaving Lacey fighting to be able to stay.

Beau Wilder, is our hero, and he is a well-known Hollywood hearthrob, who arrives to film a movie. Beau at first was a bit arrogant, and wanted to force Lacey out of the lighthouse. Needless to say, they did not get off on the right foot, as the lines were drawn as to who would stay. Beau the following morning will meet Lacey’s son, Henry, who helps set the stage for them to share the abode.

Henry was adorable, and his scenes with Beau, Lacey and another character, Dickey were very enjoyable. Both Lacey and Beau were a bit stubborn, trying to avoid each other, but a slow built romance develops. However, both know that this is not a long term relationship, since Beau will move on, as his life is always on the go to the next set. That doesn’t stop them from eventually acting on their lust for each other, but it does create emotional angst. In the midst of their slowly developing relationship, are family issues from both Lacey and Beau’s family that plays a big part in the story.

What follows is a sweet romance, with a movie background setting; a couple that was doomed from the start; a young boy who helps bring them closer, and families that need to resolve their relationships. I enjoyed this story, but did have mixed feelings early on, as it seemed a bit cluttered, which did get better half way through. Overall, I recommend this book to anyone who loves romance, a sexy couple, with a cute child as part of the story.
