My Thoughts:
I love books that has familar characters. While I am not a fan of serial stories I do like meeting the same characters in different stories. And just like others I love Bella Rossi Neely and her wacky family.
The fun of this book is the introduction a new family that is nearly just as wacky as Bella's. The Pappas family is trying to give the Rossi Family a run for the money. The story that erupts from that is a fun story, but sometimes even heartbreaking. You can feel the pain that Cassia feels as she struggles between trying to follow her dream and to please her family.
Throw all this together and what do you have, another wonderful Janice Thompson book. A Bouquet of Love will not dissapoint the Rossi Family fans, it is the perfect blend! 4.5 stars from this reviewer. This book was provided for review purposes only, no payment was received for this review.
From the Back Cover
She didn't expect to fall in love--but roses aren't the only thing blooming on Galveston Island
Cassia Pappas has found herself in a nearly impossible situation. She wants to spend her time immersed in her new job at a Galveston Island floral shop, arranging blooms and brightening occasions with her lovely creations. But her boisterous Greek family--especially her father--has other ideas. They've all relocated to Galveston to open up a new family restaurant located on the Strand--directly across the street from iconic pizza place Parma John's--and they want Cassia's full participation.
To make matters worse, as Cassia is trying to develop a strong professional relationship with Galveston's premier wedding coordinator, Bella Neeley, her own father is intent on stealing all of the Rossi family's faithful customers. Not exactly the best way to get into this former Rossi's good graces!
Still, at least Alex, that hot delivery guy from the nursery, is always hanging around the flower shop . . .
