Crazy, Beautiful Love by K.L. Grayson
Review by Angelique What a catch! K.L. Grayson caught me off guard in this sweet and wonderful story. Crazy Beautiful Love is part of the Dirty Dicks series and tells the story of Beau and Tess. "If this were a romance novel, I’d swoon." It is! And boy did I swoon! Beau Allen travels a lot for work. Being a well-known photographer who goes into the heart of the action, he’s in big demand for anyone needing to capture the painful and vivid truth of what happens around the world. Flower shop owner and best friend of Mo - who we meet in book one of this series - Tess is as much part of the Allen family as anyone else. No one really knows much about her past and Tess prefers it that way. Her past isn’t exactly something she’s proud of but she survived the blows and that’s the important part of it. Tess and Beau meet because of their relation to the family and the fact that Heaven is a small town. It was bound to happen no matter how much Tess tries to avoid him. Little does she realize what impact getting to know Beau will have. Throughout the family get-togethers as well as a nudge from both the most obvious and the most unexpected, Beau and Tess connect. Neither wants to move too fast or push the other because who knows when Beau is expected to travel abroad again for work and who knows what secrets Tess hides so deeply. Sure enough, as time goes on and their story unwinds with laughter and tears. It’s clear that things are never as simple as they seem. Decisions are made and events lead to consequences. Some really good, some really sad. “I’m a mess.” “You’re my mess.” K.L is a master storyteller and she finds ways to keep you absolutely hooked! This book can be read as a standalone. You also meet the characters from previous books. It is always great when an author manages to keep that connection to the characters you know like your own. “You’re lucky to have grown up surrounded by so much love.” As a last note, I personally love big happy families and this book has no shortage of that! **ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review**
