Synopsis
Memphis Ward arrives in Quincy, Montana, on the fifth worst day of her life. She needs a shower. She needs a snack. She needs some sanity. Because moving across the country with her newborn baby is by far the craziest thing she’s ever done.
But maybe it takes a little crazy to build a good life. If putting the past behind her requires a thousand miles and a new town, she’ll do it if it means a better future for her son. Even if it requires setting aside the glamour of her former life. Even if it requires working as a housekeeper at The Eloise Inn and living in an apartment above a garage.
It’s there, on the fifth worst day of her life, that she meets the handsomest man she’s ever laid eyes on. Knox Eden is a beautiful, sinful dream, a chef and her temporary landlord. With his sharp, stubbled jaw and tattooed arms, he’s raw and rugged and everything she’s never had—and never will. Because after the first worst day of her life, Memphis learned a good life requires giving up on her dreams too. And a man like Knox Eden will only ever be a dream.

Review
I loved Indigo Ridge and was so excited to read Juniper Hill. And Knox Eden does not disappoint.
Memphis is a single mom, not one of my favorite tropes, but her struggle was so real. I truly felt for her and was so glad she had the Edens. It was so easy to respect Memphis and her work ethic. Knox was such a great male main character. He was rough on the outside but so gooey on the inside. I loved him stepping in with Drake, especially after what we learned about his past.
I usually love a romantic suspense storyline, but this one felt forced, and the resolution seemed rushed, and I would have much preferred that plot be taken out. However, it wasn’t really needed.
Jason Clarke was perfect! I like Maxine Mitchell but I didn’t think she was the right fit for Memphis. She did a great job conveying the emotion, and I enjoyed her performance, but especially at first, her voice seemed a little too mature for the character.
While Indigo Ridge is still my favorite, I certainly enjoyed this trip to Quincy, Montana!
