There’s something that always gets to me when I’m reading an utterly sweet romance. Southern Desire was one of these fantastic reads. This slow building romance was captivating from page one until the end.
From the first moment Whitney and Aaron meet, it’s clear that there’s something special there. Seeing them starting as friends and slowly falling in love together was so well written and made me swoon. All along my read I must say that I loved the dynamic between Whitney and Aaron. Nothing was rushed in their relationship, but everything was felt immensely. Really a slow burning love as its best!
Aaron is such the perfect gentleman, but can also be the alpha male. He’s just waiting for “the one” and not rushing into it. I was charmed by his easy going and romantic personality! I just couldn’t wait to finally see this couple together. It was a long process, but so beautiful to witness and so gratifying when it finally happened.
I loved seeing MacKenzie and Evan again in their family life as secondary characters. Southern Desire is definitely my new favorite read by Kaylee Ryan. The chemistry, the romance, the writing, everything was so pleasing about this dreamy story.
