Like Never Before by Melissa Tagg

Heidi here. Want a great read for this weekend? Like Never Before is book two of the Walker Family Series by Melissa Tagg. Bestselling author Susan May Warren states "Melissa Tagg just keeps getting better and better!" And I agree :-)

A dying newspaper. An intriguing mystery. And a love they didn't see coming.

Maple Valley became Amelia Bentley's haven after her heart and her dreams of a family were shattered. But her new life as a newspaper editor is shaken when the small-town paper is in danger of closing. Her one hope: A lead on an intriguing story that just might impress the new publisher...if only she knew who he was.

After his biggest campaign success yet, widowed speechwriter Logan Walker now has the chance of a lifetime--a spot on a presidential campaign. But his plans are interrupted when he finds out he's inherited his hometown newspaper. He travels home intent on selling the paper and spending some much-needed time with his young daughter before making the leap into national politics.

But instead of a quick sale and peaceful break from his hectic career, Logan finds himself helping Amelia chase her story. She's scrappy, but wounded. He's dependable, but lost. They may butt heads more than expected, but a series of leads on Maple Valley's quirky unsolved mystery is just the start of the sparks that fly in the office and in their hearts.

I loved the quirks of Maple Valley, how Amelia fell hard for the big and loving Walker clan, Logan's daughter Charlie . . . I just adored this book. It was a page-turner, the three-dimensional characters were bigger than life, the plot took twists I didn't expect at the end. This will not be the last Melissa Tagg novel I purchase and enjoy reading!

After you read Like Never Before, grab the third book in the series, Keep Holding On (the kindle price is only $4.99 today). I've read Keep Holding On as well, and enjoyed it as much as the other two books in the series.
