My Readultery Life Review

As a new reader to The Country Road series, I was a little apprehensive whether I would be able to connect to the characters without knowing the background obtained from reading the previous books. I can happily say that you don’t need to read the books before reading Bourbon & Bonfires.

The book concentrates on Landon and Addison’s characters, there are appearances from characters mentioned in the series books, so if you have read the series in order, then you will know more off the background stories with these characters.

Addison is divorcee, single mother to a teenage son, Mason. Having to deal with his rebellious attitude and finding himself in trouble with the law, Addison decides to pack up and move closer to her brother in Lexington. I loved Addison from the get go, having to deal with fallout from her divorcee and making the decision to move showed strength in her character. She deals with the situation in the best way she can, which I sure most readers can relate too.

Landon is the last man standing in his group off friends, who have all settled down. Landon never thought about settling down but now that he sees how happy his friends, he’s ready to make changes in his love life. Landon is such a loveable character with a huge heart. He certainly wears his heart on his sleeve.

Addison and Landon’s story starts off slowly, giving you that slow burn effect. But as a result, their relationship has a strength that most books skip. Its an old school romance. As a reader I became invested in the lives of the characters and constantly rooted for a happy ending. Its not just filled with the warm fuzzy feelings, there is a lot of angst. This combination makes this book an enjoyable read.

I absolutely loved the relationship that develops between Landon and Mason. There was an element of trust that is genuine between theses two characters, Landon forms a friendship with Mason even before his relationship with Addison kicks into full swing. Landon provides the male stability that Mason has been lacking because of his father no longer being in the picture.

Bourbon & Bonfires is a great read. One that has enticed me enough to read all off the books from The Country Road series. Andrea Johnston has an ability that allows her readers to become invested in her characters. She gives the reader strong characters, relatable characters and even characters that you hate.

**** 4 Stars
