Worth the Wait by Karelia Stetz-Waters

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

4.5 rounded up

Apparently, I needed a second chance for this second chance romance. I received it as an ARC back in 2018 but couldn’t connect to the characters and DNFd it. I picked it up again a couple days ago and got sucked in and ended up loving it. It’s all about the mood, people!

I was coming off of the emotional ride of Satisfaction Guaranteed – which I loved – and must have been in the right place mentally to fall in love with two more Stetz-Waters characters. Reading those books back-to-back showed me a lot of similarities in theme but it certainly didn’t take away from the experience. These were two different women in a different situation. And then there’s Portland which is a character all on its own. I’ve only been there once but now I want to go back and check out all the cool places mentioned.

Karelia Stetz-Waters might just be my favorite author at the moment. (I’m about to jump into Behind the Scenes next. Yes, I’m binging this author. Also working on my old ARCs…) She has a wonderful writing voice and style. She’s made me laugh and cry and hope right along with her characters. I will work on her back catalogue that I didn’t get as ARCs too. And wait for new books.

A hearty thank you to Mrs. Stetz-Waters for reaching out waaaay back when to see if I’d be interested in reading an advanced copy through NetGalley.
