Book Review: Smitten by Colleen Coble

If you are looking for a good, clean romance novel, then Smitten is the book for you!  This book was written by four different authors:  Colleen Coble, Kristein Billerbeck, Diann Hunt, and Denise Hunter.   Dividing the book up into four interwoven short-stories, each author focuses on one of the four main characters in the story and tells their section from that point of view.

In the book, the four main characters are best friends.  Natalie, Julia, Shelby, and Reese are four women who embark on a journey to save their small town of Smitten, Vermont.  When the mill, the main industry in the town, shuts down, these four women bond together to try to turn it into the a tourist attraction and the "romance capital of the world."  They each have their own ideas to make it work from a spa and romantic cabins to sweet shops and music being played in the streets of this quaint little town.

I thought this book was a little bit hard to get into at first.  It was very predictable throughout the whole story plot.  I did like that it was clean and fun Christian fiction, though!  I had read books by Kristin Billerbeck and love her as an author, so I was excited to read another one by her.  Although this wasn't a book that I "just couldn't put down", I would recommend it as a good read.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from BookSneeze and Thomas Nelson to read and review.  All opinions of this book are my own.
