GRL 2018 SPOTLIGHT - Jeff Adams - Somewhere On Mackinac

In my attempt to cover some of the attending authors for this year's GRL,
I am reviewing 

Jeff Adam's Somewhere On Mackinac!









BLURB

How far would you go for the man of your dreams?

Now that he's single, Chicago businessman Jordan Monroe can finally take his long-desired trip to Mackinac Island for the Somewhere In Time fan celebration weekend. On the first day, Jordan finds himself attracted to Miles Colter, a handsome local stable owner who is giving horseback tours of film locations.

Jordan is surprised and charmed that Miles pursues him. When Jordan learns the stable is in trouble, he wants to help despite Miles's resistance. As their relationship grows personally and professionally, Jordan dreads the issues that face them--an ex who won't let him go, the complications of a long-distance relationship, and a secret he knows he shouldn't be keeping.

Can Jordan and Miles find a way to forge a love as timeless as the romance in their favorite film?

REVIEW
My Rating - 4 Stars!

Somewhere on Mackinac is a short, sweet romance by Jeff Adams. 

When Jordan goes to Mackinac Island for the Somewhere In Time celebration, he meets Miles, who's a local stable owner. The two men connect instantly and spend some time together while Jordan's in town. 

This story contains a wonderful, atmospheric setting, an ex-boyfriend who's a troublemaker and vengeful, and some fun secondary characters. 

When Jordan finds out that Mile's stable is having financial problems, he steps up to help, which bonds them further.

Unfortunately, the two don't live close to each other, and there will be some problems when a secret is revealed. In the end though, they will find their happy ending, leaving the reader happy and satisfied.

Somewhere on Mackinac is definitely worth a read when you're looking for a short and sweet romance. Jeff Adams had me smiling with this charming book.
