Synopsis:

Finding Love Again… Yeah, that’s the thing romance novels are written about. Kelly Sorenson should know; she wrote the book on it. In fact, it’s an international best seller. As a romance writer, her dreams of a happily-ever-after died with her husband of twenty-five years in a freak car accident. But that won’t stop her best friend from pushing her towards finding it again. Naval Captain Aiden Maddock is suffering from a loss of his own. When his wife dies of cancer, he settles into life on the high seas, postponing retirement indefinitely. Fleet Week brings him to the City Of Roses for a few days of adventure. And with a gentle push from his closest friend, finds himself face-to-face with someone that could change his world forever. Is it possible to find love again when you never fell out of love in the first place? Can romance be found with someone sitting across the table? Or is love the second time around simply too much to ask for?

Review:

Peak inside intimate emails between new lovers, listen to solid relationship advice from a friend and look inside the intellectual mind of Kelly, a seasoned best-selling, romance author that is believed to have the perfect life. But after suffering the death of her loving husband in a car accident, heartache and grief set in for Kelly, a relatable scenario for anyone who has experienced such a tragic and sudden moment in their life. She is reluctant to do much after such sorrow and sadness, until Kelly’s best friend, Beth, encourages her to go looking for a little romance one more time.

With an authentic and genuine outlook on sudden destitution and the grief that exists beyond measure, The Writer by Lori Osterberg portrays a charming and touching story of a chance at love after great loss. This book was really cute and quirky with a bit of sophistication. I love how descriptive and detailed The Writer is, especially in various scenes and situations, placing me right on location watching on as this very entertaining story unfolded. Author, Lori Osterberg, writes with extreme honesty and empathy, making this book a very captivating and heartfelt read, especially for those that has ever been in the same situation of love and loss.

I thought the storyline was very interesting and engaging. There was never a lull or abeyance but always thought-provoking and compelling with an eccentric, unexpected touch. The Writer is very poised and perfectly written with a clear, concise and original voice. The characters are all well developed and intriguing which kept me well entertained from the first turn of the page to the very last!  One of the best books I have read in a long time, The Writer kept me flipping the pages quickly into the late hours of the night. This alluring novel is a must read and will be a great addition to every avid reader’s book list! Highly recommended by Chick Lit Cafe.
