Barefoot in Lace by Roxanne St. Claire

5.0

Roxanne has this fantastic way of creating characters that feel like your BFF from childhood right from the very first page, even though she manages to hold onto this air of mystery about them throughout the story. It doesn’t feel like the characters pour their guts out to you in the intro paragraph, you’re absolutely learning about them throughout the book, but you’re hooked from the first word and sad to see the book come to an end. Barefoot in Lace is absolutely no exception to that ringing endorsement. From the moment you meet Gussie and Tom, you can’t wait for them to realize they’re meant for each other, and to soften up and reveal their scars to each other. As an added bonus Roxanne takes us on a trip from the gorgeous Mimosa Key to Nice in France, and the descriptions alone will have you feeling a little jet lagged after you’re finished.
