Holly’s story started back with Susan Hatler’s story, An Unexpected Date. That was a short story released a few years back, and I’m happy to have had the chance to continue with Holly’s journey now, in An Unexpected Kiss.

For a follow-up to Date, I thought this story met expectations and exceeded them in ways, as well. It’s still a sweet and simple story about two people falling in love, but unlike the brief first story, Hatler allowed the story to open up a bit more. This helped paint a bigger picture of the town of Whitefish and the characters’ backstories, as well.

I won’t get into more detail due to the length of this story, but know that I was in no way disappointed with what I read. I’m also, like I was after reading story one, eager to see what happens next for Holly. From the looks of it, I won’t have to wait too long for the next one. ( )
