The Charm of You: A Grumpy Sunshine, Small Town Romance (Sapphire Creek Series) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 189 ratings

I had hoped to attend my high school reunion with a fancy job and a polished man on my arm, every bit the success my hometown had predicted me to be.

But plans never go as, well, planned.

Also unplanned was running into a hot, prickly mechanic on my first day back in Sapphire Creek.

Austin Kyle sure knows how to work a flannel shirt.

Based on the way the brooding man argues with me over an apple pie, it’s safe to say he doesn’t like me.

Call it the former homecoming queen in me, but I need the veiny-forearmed grump to like me. I have a week to change his mind before I return home to the city.

Before I know it, Austin’s occupying all my thoughts. I’m singing karaoke, bringing him coffees at his garage, and doing anything else I can think of to win him over.

And it works—a little too well.

One moment we’re arguing over who’s more stubborn, and the next, we’re crawling into his truck bed, a tangled mess of eager hands and bruising kisses.

It’s not long before Austin’s charming his way into my heart, but this thing between us is only temporary.

From the start, he’s warned me we wouldn’t have a storybook ending.

Maybe I should’ve listened.

*The Charm of You is the first book in the Sapphire Creek series, where grumpy meets sunshine and one homecoming leads to happily ever after. This full-length romance contains banter, explosive chemistry, and ooey-gooey feels, plus enough steam to make you blush.

    You will absolutely fall in love with this little town and all the fun quirky characters that live there!! Austin was in the shadows and invisible in high school. He wasn't known by many of his classmates but one encounter changes everything for him. Over the past 10 years, he's been putting his life on hold for his mom. He just wanted to make sure she was ok after his dad passing. This has made him skeptical and afraid of love. Oh and a grump, he's been compared to a cactus lol. The reunion has all the old classmates showing up, which means he'll see his crush, Caroline Summers. She has a great life in New York City and would never fall for a small town boy.
    Caroline was a cheerleader and Homecoming Queen. She was someone everyone knew and loved. Her life was good until her dad died. She moved to New York City, had her dream job and a great guy who seemed to love her or at least the image of her. Her life goes to shambles and she comes back home.
    Meeting Austin and really getting to know him changes how she sees her life and makes her question where and what she wants in life. Being back home has brought a lot of tears up and some of the past that needs to be healed.
    I really loved this book! All the small town feel with the meddling mothers, the friends who support and have their own issues with each other. The feeling of two broken people coming together to find love was incredible!! This book will have you falling in love with Austin and Caroline along with the town they live in. I loved every minute of this book!!

    In The Charm of You, the first book of the Sapphire Creek series, author Georgia Coffman weaves a tale of opposites attract. Set against the backdrop of a picturesque small town, the story follows the unlikely romance between a grumpy small town guy and a vivacious city girl. With a smattering of steamy scenes and plenty of heart, this novel is a perfect blend of humor and tenderness.

    Caroline Summers had it all - the looks, the popularity, and the world at her feet. After leaving Sapphire Creek for the bright lights of New York City, Caroline had everything she ever wanted... until everything came crashing down. Now, a decade later, she's back for her high school reunion, trying to rebuild her life. Meanwhile, Austin Kyle, the quiet and unassuming mechanic who had always had a crush on Caroline, still lives in Sapphire Creek. During high school, he had never caught her eye, but a decade later, Austin is no longer the invisible boy he once was. As Caroline starts to take notice of him, their worlds are about to collide in ways neither of them could have ever expected.

    As Austin and Caroline reconnect, they find that their shared experiences of loss and grief bring them closer together. They both have to confront the pain of losing their fathers at a young age, and they support each other through the emotional process of healing. At the same time, they both realize that their relationships with their mothers need to change, and they support each other as they navigate the difficult process of making those changes. The chemistry between Austin and Caroline is palpable, and their growing affection for each other is both sweet and passionate.

    All the characters in this book are truly charming, and they will capture your heart from the very beginning. I can’t wait for Austin and Caroline’s friends to have their own story in the series. The Charm of You is a highly recommended, beautifully-written romance that captures the heart and soul of its characters.

    Austin and Caroline are both complex and nuanced, and they are written with such depth and authenticity that they feel like real people. The Charm of You is a sweet, passionate, and heartfelt page-turner that will leave you feeling happy and fulfilled. It's a book that will stay with you long after you've turned the last page.

    Cute read from Georgia! After the death of his father and moving to a new town in high school, Austin flew under the radar and was practically invisible to his peers because he was so focused on working and taking care of his mother. He had a huge crush on Caroline, the most popular girl in school, and the one moment they had together he realized was nothing since she didn’t recognize or know him at all, and he’s harbored hard feelings for a decade because of it. Caroline did everything she sought out to do after graduating high school – moving to New York City, having a successful career, and in a happy relationship. All that blows up the week before she’s to return home for her high school reunion when she’s fired from her job, and she breaks up with her boyfriend after he proposes because she didn’t feel sparks with him and returns home with her tail between her legs and a plan to fake things before she figures out her next move. When in town, she meets Austin and is instantly attracted to him, but he is hostile towards her because of their past that she doesn’t remember. As they spend more time together, they start to develop a relationship, however always with an expiration date since he would never move to the city, and she would never move home. Thanks to fate, they get the HEA they deserve, and the mothers are so happy about it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Small Town Perfection
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 5, 2024
    It took me a while from downloading this book on KU to reading it, but it was a real pleasure once I did. This had all the small town grumpy/sunshine vibes and Austin and Caroline were fully rounded characters. It had a refreshing feel about it, which is good with the number of romances I read in a month. The only downside is waiting for more titles in the series to be published!
