Katia’s Promise

(Shores of Indian Lake #4)
by Catherine Lanigan
Adult Contemporary Romance
May 1st 2015 by Harlequin Heartwarming

 

Katia Stanislaus is a top insurance agent in Chicago, but her company is about to fold if she can’t pull off a miracle. She convinces her boss to relocate to Indian Lake where she lived as a child and broke the heart of the one man whose account would be enough to save her job and her company. The only problem is that Austin McCreary has been a near recluse since the day Katia left him. Austin won’t take her calls and appears set on revenge for the pain Katia has caused him. Just seeing Austin, catapaults Katia back to the time when she was 16 and so very much in love. But it was just a teenage crush, wasn’t it?

My Review of Katia’s Promise

I adored this book! It is just so cute and so sweet! I love love love the Harlequin Heartwarming books! You can pick one up and know that you aren’t going to find any bad language or sex in them. They are just “heartwarming.” 
Katia’s Promise certainly did not disappoint in the “heartwarming” category. I read this book very quickly. It is one that you’ll not want to put down, so be sure you’ve got time to read when you start! I absolutely love the town in which this book is set. I want to live there! The characters in the story are perfect. I love that they are flawed because it makes them so real. Katia is so super organized…I totally cannot relate lol. But I love her willingness to fight for what she wants. I could relate more to Austin because I can be somewhat of an “avoid the people” type of person at times. I love the romance and how it is rekindled after many years. 
This book is definitely one for you clean, sweet romance readers to add to your TBR piles! I know I’ll be adding the others in the series to mine! 5 Stars!

    I love the cover. It looks like they are cuddled up together watching a movie. And I love the synopsis because it screams my kind of book! And once I read Christy’s review, well, I’m sold!

    I had no idea Halequin had a Heartwarming series. It sounds like a great read and I would appreciate that it doesn’t have any explicit language and sex in it!

    Sounds like a nice lighthearted read! Like you, when I read this genre, I’m a fan of keeping things more “heartwarming” …thanks for sharing your synopsis!

    I have to admit that I’ve never read a novel that was centered on romance before – strange as I’m quite a romantic person. Thanks for sharing your review.

    Although Harlequin romance books aren’t my type of books, your review does give a very thorough explanation of why the book would be worth the read. Thanks for sharing.

    Sounds like my kind of book, I don’t really like the sex and language in books that some people do. I’d prefer something heartwarming and uplifting.
