Our Kind of Love {a review}


Our Kind of Love by Kait Nolan is the latest release in the Men of the Misfit Inn series. If you are a fan of childhood sweethearts, friends to enemies to lovers, soulmates, fake engagement, small town romance, or rockstar romance, then you're going to want to grab Our Kind of Love. 

In this book we meet up with Kyle who is a successful country music star. He is just coming off of a tour, and his team is trying to set up a relationship between him and Marci. Kyle wants nothing to do with her, and definitely does not want a relationship with her. The next day Kyle is on a live tv show, and the host asks him about rumors of him and Marci. Kyle shuts that down, and says his heart belongs to another. They automatically assume he's engaged, and somehow he blurts out Abbey's name. To try to get ahead of the paparazzi, Kyle immediately heads to his home town. The place he tries to stay away from. But Abbey is there, and he needs to fill her in before news travels. Now Kyle and Abbey have history. They have known each other since they were itty bitty, and Kyle's parents worked at the orchard Abbey's family owns. Abbey knows the secrets Kyle is holding on to, and she is always able to get through to him. Abbey believes in him, and trusts him with all that she is. Our Kind of Love tells the story of their past, their present, and what is in store for their future. We also find out why Abbey is so angry with Kyle, and see how they work towards overcoming that.

When I started reading Our Kind of Love I had just finished reading a dark romance, and my mind was tired. I was also worried that a reading slump might be heading my way, and I did not want that to happen. The first little bit of the book was a struggle for me, but I put that all on the reasons I just mentioned. It had nothing to do with Kait Nolan's book. Once Kyle returned to his home town, and had that reunion with Abbey, I was all in. I found myself wanting to know their past. What had Kyle done that hurt Abbey so much? Also, I really wanted to know what Kyle's parents had done. Because it had to be something pretty major. Then there was Granddaddy. That man is a hoot, and I was immediately taken with him. There was so much happening in Abbey and Kyle's relationship. Yes, it started out as a fake engagement, but then it all changed. And I loved it. I love how passionate Kyle is about his career, and how he wants something to change so that he can have a life. Tour after tour, album after album, promo after promo, it all gets tiring especially when you are not given a break from it. To me that really spoke about the music industry because you see that all the time. So that was definitely real life sneaking into this story. 

Our Kind of Love was such a good story. I love the found family aspect, love the singer/songwriter career for Kyle, loved the setting, and so many more parts of the story. Highly recommend the Our Kind of Love, and I am looking forward to the third book, Don't You Wanna Stay, which releases in August.

Thank you for reading my thoughts,

One of Nashville’s fastest rising stars, Kyle Keenan has it all—fame, fans, and a chance at fortune. But the dream he’s busted his tail for means nothing without the woman who holds his heart. With her sassy smile and pull-no-punches attitude, Abbey is his greatest love—and his greatest regret. When he’s confronted in a live TV interview about alleged involvement with a country music starlet, Kyle blurts out he’s already engaged…to Abbey.

Abbey Whittaker has come a long way from the starry-eyed six-year-old who made a marriage pact with her best friend. With a thriving business, a loving family, and a tight-knit group of friends, she’s put away childish things. She long ago banished Kyle from her life, so the last thing she expects is him walking through her door or the blistering kiss that follows.

Kyle is desperate to convince Abbey that a fake engagement is the best way to get the media off her back—and his. And it just might give him a chance to fix what he destroyed. Even as these two frenemies remember all the reasons they wanted to be lovers, another blast from Kyle’s past returns, threatening to expose the secret he’s spent his entire career hiding.

When truths come to light, will love conquer all or will Kyle lose everything?
