REVIEW - Rachel, Out of Office by Christina Hovland


The Book

Release Date: 25 January 2021

Goodreads Link

Single mom Rachel Gibson seriously needs a break. Between an absent ex-husband, rowdy twin boys, and running her own work-from-home business, her candle isn't just burning at both ends, it's a full-blown puddle of wax. She's the go-to girl for other entrepreneurs, handling all the tasks they dread. Social media posts? She's got it. Website updates? She's on it. Light bookkeeping? She loves it.

Thank goodness Rachel’s about to get a reprieve, as her former in-laws plan to whisk her boys away for a summer of fun at the family lake house. But when her ex backs out at the last minute, she finds herself in a pickle. Even though she's drowning in to-dos, she's horrible at saying no—especially when it comes to providing some stability for her kids.

Once Rachel arrives at the lake house, she struggles to keep up with work and balance the demands of family, all the while fending off pesky new feelings for her ex-brother-in-law. Which makes her wonder...is falling for her ex-husband's brother just one more messy complication added to the dumpster fire of her life? Or is anything possible when she's out of office…?

My Review  5 STARS

**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

I really enjoyed this book and having twins myself i know what little tornados they can be and how they can be best friends and the worst of enemies.

The book is told from dual point of view, Rachel and Travis and we see as they navigate their feelings towards each other along with the fact that her ex husband is also Travis's brother.  The boys mother has also forbid Rachel and Travis having anything to do with each other as she believes that Rachel and her ex husband Colin will get back together (no happening).

Both navigate everything with composure and as adults and when things blow up all at the same time, Rachel shows her strength and Travis his support and love.  When it really matters they stand up for each other and the love that is blooming between them.

I am really hoping that Colin will get a book and some of Rachels friends, especially Molly.
