The Park of Sunset Dreams by Ava Miles
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Synopsis:

Jane Wilcox has a secret. She’s been the incognito poker scout to a rock star poker player dressed as a smoking hot poker babe. Now that role is over, and she’s living in small town Dare Valley, working as a dog walker—or so everyone thinks. Without her Jimmy Choo heels and Prada gowns, she’s trying to find her new sexy Inner Swan and a fairytale romance, but she’s afraid she might have turned back into “Plain Jane” until she meets Matt Hale in the dog park.

The sexy lawyer has a rambunctious dog that needs her Dog Whisperer skills and slowly they move from friends to lovers. Matt is one of the good guys, a hero, totally boy-next-door material. He’s returned to his hometown after experiencing a tragedy. He was unable to find justice for the woman in his last legal case, and now she’s passed away and given him her dog. He’s vowed to give Henry a good home and right the wrongs in the system, so he’s running for mayor of Dare Valley.

Jane and Matt fall in love during sunset walks in the dog park, but soon Jane’s secret past comes back to haunt her and harms Matt’s bid for mayor. Can Jane and Matt’s love survive the controversy?

___________________________________

Jane and Matt together were... the only word for it is magical. There's so much to respect about a guy who not only finds his woman beautiful but makes sure she feels it. The chemistry they had was sizzling but I loved that we also get to witness them forming a deeper bond and learning to trust each other. Ava Miles' appreciation for good food and wine came through loud and clear (I was hungry after finishing the book) and who doesn't adore cute animals? Both of them have close knit families and seeing the fierce way they love and support each other... it's truly inspiring.

Jane was an amazing lead and it was wonderful getting to witness her finally shine after a lifetime of insecurity. Matt's a good man with a selfless heart and exactly what she needed in her life. I really don't think they could be any more perfect as a couple!

If you're not caught up with the Dare Valley series yet, I do think this book stands up well enough alone but reading the other stories will help you to understand and appreciate it more. Enjoy!
