New Release Review! CAN’T BUY ME LOVE by Marie Force (Butler, Vermont #2)

BLURB: 

Mary Larkin was hard at work as the office manager at the Green Mountain Country Store when Cameron Murphy brought her dad, Patrick, in to visit. That fateful first meeting, which took place in You’ll Be Mine, sets the stage for Mary and Patrick’s long-awaited romance in Can’t Buy Me Love!

Mary enjoys her predictable, satisfying life in Butler. If it’s a little lacking in excitement, well, that’s okay with her. But after meeting Patrick and getting to know him better at his daughter’s wedding, Mary is intrigued by the well-known, sexy billionaire businessman.

Patrick is equally intrigued. For the first time since he suddenly lost his wife thirty years ago, he has met a woman who makes him feel less lonely, and all he wants is more of his Sweet Mary from Vermont. Flirty phone calls become a weekend away together that takes his relationship with Mary to the next level.

But with six hours and two vastly different lives standing between them, can Mary and Patrick find happily ever after together? And after telling her father to keep his hands and everything else off Mary, will Cameron approve of her father’s new romance?

REVIEW:

Can’t Buy Me Love is a sweet romance–a second-chance at love for two older characters–and if you’ve read Cameron’s (Patrick’s daughter) story, especially the story of her wedding, where Patrick and Mary first met, you’re bound to absolutely love this cozy. comfortable romance. There really isn’t a whole lot of conflict–not half as much as the blurb makes it sound like there is–just the rather short story of a gentle wooing by a guy who definitely knows what he wants and the woman who is more than happy to give it to him.

Rating: 3 stars / C+

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
