Not Just Gal Pals

Sapphire Springs, Book 1

Jenny Lynton never planned to be an influencer. It just sort of . . . happened. When an unfortunate post results in Jenny being "almost canceled," she extends her stay in her hometown, Sapphire Springs, New York, to wait out the storm. Jenny's agent suggests a fling with a flannel-wearing lumberjack might be just the thing to distract her. But after a string of disastrous dates, Jenny has sworn off flings. And lumberjacks are in short supply in Sapphire Springs. Lumberjanes, on the other hand . . .

Blake Mitchell is Sapphire Spring's only doctor. She's also had a crush on Jenny since high school. A crush that makes her a socially awkward mess whenever she's around Jenny. Blake moved back home to avoid being hurt by another relationship—there's not exactly a lot of dating options for lesbians in Sapphire Springs—but Blake can't stop thinking about Jenny now she's back in town.

When Jenny and Blake are forced to work together to save a friend's bachelorette party, sparks fly. But with Jenny's return to LA a ticking time-bomb, is it wise for them to explore their feelings for each other, or do they risk being hurt yet again?

Contains mature themes.

Wow

Take a great story, well written, with not too much drama, with excellent MC and combine it with an excellent narration and you got a 5 stars review. if you are looking for 8 or more hours of pleasure get this one.

Influencer

I liked both characters and have never read a story with an influencer as a lead. I’m not a Tik Tok person so it was very interesting to read this story. Looking forward to more from this author. Abby’s narration as always was excellent!

Social Media Trolls and Haters

While I don't understand influencers I know they're out there. I don't Tik Tok, I don't Instagram, and I don't follow people that I don't know on FB.

With that being said, the influencer is being abused by people on the internet, and takes a longer vacation than needed for being in her best friend's wedding.

While in HS Jenny thought Blake hated her, but Blake actually had a crush on her. It's just that Blake had always been socially awkward around Jenny.

There is a little bit of mild mature content. 🌶️

Adorbs!!!

Sugar and spice and everything nice! This story is so funny and heartwarming, with the perfect amount of heat! Abby Craden was phenomenal in bringing every character to life with their own, distinct personality. If you're looking for warm fuzzies, this is for you!
