I'm delighted to be sharing my review as part of the blog tour for Take Me, I'm Yours by Lizzie Lamb today. First of all though let's take a look at the description for the book...
India Buchanan
plans to set up an English-Style bed and breakfast establishment in her
great-aunt’s home, MacFarlane’s Landing, Wisconsin. But she’s reckoned without
opposition from Logan MacFarlane whose family once owned her aunt’s house and
now want it back. MacFarlane is in no mood to be denied. His grandfather’s
living on borrowed time and Logan has vowed to ensure the old man sees out his
days in their former home. India’s great-aunt has other ideas and has
threatened to burn the house to the ground before she lets a MacFarlane set
foot in it. There’s a story here. One the family elders aren’t prepared to
share. When India finds herself in Logan’s debt, her feelings towards him
change. However, the past casts a long shadow and events conspire to deny them
the love and happiness they both deserve. Can India and Logan’s love overcome
all odds? Or is history about to repeat itself?

After reading the description for this book I couldn't wait to see how everything would play out and what follows is a story about past mistakes that are still making waves in the present. The opening instantly sets the scene as India and Logan draw battle lines with Logan arriving on his motorbike and making a big impression. There was a little bit of drama and some misunderstandings along the way which easily kept me entertained.
The story is pretty much one big power play between India and Logan with some fiery and flirty interactions that made things very interesting. However there is also a beautiful romance at its heart. Both characters are strong willed and determined to win even if attraction gets in the way! I also enjoyed the back story of Logan's grandfather and India's great-aunt it added a lovely twist and extra depth to the story. The setting is stunning and is described in such a wonderful way, I wish I could visit myself.
If you love stories set in small towns with warmth and romance then I can recommend picking up a copy of Take Me, I'm Yours!
Entertaining, romantic with some very sizzling chemistry between the characters.
Four stars from me!
With thanks to Rachel at Rachel's Random Resources for my copy.

to waste. She is building a reputation as a go-to speaker on indie publishing,
