Review: Watch Over (The DeLuca Family Series Book 1) by Amy Reece

Watch Over Watch Over by Amy Reece
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sweet Romance

I’d probably give this book 3.5 ⭐️ if I could.

This is the first book in a series about one family. This book works as a standalone and has a HEA.

This novel starts with one of the sweetest meetings I’ve read. Finn is a cop. He’s recently returned home after being in an accident and having to stay in rehab and with his family. He’s in a wheelchair and his family keep turning up to help him out, but at least he’s in his own bed.

Finn’s neighbour is a woman called Melanie. She inherited the house she lives in when her great aunt died. She doesn’t get on with her family apart from the aunt she just lost and her job involves working from home. She’s really shy and doesn’t do well in large groups. She has her aunt’s elderly dog Fluff for company and recently a stray cat has been coming round. She decides to adopt it and buys a collar. Then one day she receives a note in the collar from Finn and they end up communicating via cat-mail until he lets it drop he’s in a wheelchair and she’s round like a shot to bring him banana bread and the offer of any help he might need.

This cute meeting is the start of a really sweet romance that is taken slowly. At the same time as their romance is developing there appears to be some problems in Mel’s life and Finn’s cop instincts go into overdrive in his need to protect her.

I really enjoyed the book. It was quite predictable but very sweet. It was entertaining and made me smile. It didn’t pretend to be anything it isn’t. Sometimes you really want that in a book, to just help you escape from the real world for a bit and that’s what this book does.
