The One I Didn't See Coming by Piper Rayne ~ New Release & Review



The One I Didn't See Coming by Piper Rayne is now live! 


It’s the classic story—girl returns to her hometown only to end up moving in with her high school crush, who she hates.


Returning to Willowbrook was my only option after Chicago chewed me up and spit me out. Technically, it wasn’t Chicago’s fault. It was his fault—the man I thought I knew who turned out to be a liar.


My older sister, always the one to swoop in and fix things, secured me a job as a yoga instructor on her fiancé’s family ranch. As my self-assigned protector, she’s keeping one eye on me and one eye on Emmett Noughton, her fiancé’s brother.


He’s the charming, fun-loving, take-life-as-it-comes kind of guy, and once upon a time, his name was scribbled in my notebooks. Back then, I was invisible to him. Now, he’s looking at me like I’m the only thing in the room. But he lost his chance with me a long time ago.


It’s easy to keep him at arm’s length and nurse the grudge I’ve held onto for years. Until the house I’m staying in sells, and I have nowhere to go except his house. Now, resisting him isn’t just difficult—it’s impossible.

Elizabeth's Review


3.5 stars - Above Average Read

Review Copy Provided by Author


I’m struggling a little with this review.
On one hand, I enjoyed Emmett and Briar’s story. It’s a solid addition to the Plain Daisy Ranch family. I think people should read it, but….

The other hand….
This book very much depends on the first two for back story and some of the”who” for Emmett to make sense.
The switch from “maybe and I don’t hate you” to “I love you” seems fast for me. That may be a personal preference thing, but it seemed to me that something got left on the cutting room floor.
The behavior of Gillian (Briar’s sister) here also doesn’t fully jive with the person we met earlier in the series.

My overall take here is that if you are current on the Plain Daisy series, then dive in and enjoy getting to know the maturing version of Emmett. There are lot of opportunities to see previous main characters and where they are now. We also get to know the extended Plain Daisy family better and I am curious to see who may be next for a story.
