For web designer Cameron Murphy, traveling to Vermont to land a new client, she never anticipated finding someone to love much less a family to fall in love with. But when a run in with the town moose leaves her stuck, her car broken down, Cameron finds herself in the arms of Will Abbott, the son of her potential client and one who makes it known he is so not in on his father’s idea of a website for the family run business, Green Mountain Country Store.

Will Abbott has seen Cameron’s type before, all fancy and citified but he can’t help but be drawn to her even as the family dispute over the website continues but they can not contain the sparks that fly between them and as Will and Cameron find out, love can be simple and magical if they can just believe in it.

I have got to admit ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE is a story that left me hooked and when the last page was read, I needed more. More from the Abbott family, more of Will & Cameron and everyone in this tiny Vermont town of Butler. I fell in love with them all and have to admit each of the characters were just delightful themselves and as they interacted with others in the story. Ms. Force does a wonderful job capturing the charm of a small town with a family run business. With each page I turned, I became so deeply invested into the story that I had a hard time putting the book down, even to eat. The writing was lyrical, storyline was fresh and moved quickly and the exquisite cast of characters, well lets just say you will be in love with them as much as I am.

Meet Will Abbott and Cameron Murphy. Two people who meet after a run in with Fred the town moose and from there life for them both gets turned upside down in the most delightful of ways. Between family dynamics and work related issues, Will and Cameron find that they are perfect for one another but time is moving quickly as Cameron is only there for a short amount of time. Can these two find a way to let their hearts lead them to the happy ending they both deserve? I got to admit when I first met Cameron and Will I was undecided on how these two would handle being together. Cameron is pure city folk and Will is a country gentleman yet they both give something to the other person that leaves their hearts entwined and love blooming, no matter how they fight it. I got to admit after the first chapter I was rooting for these two all the way to the end of the book. I laughed, cried, smiled and sighed and man, the sexy scenes between these two literally had my fingers singed as I flipped the pages. I highly recommend having your significant other nearby or a cold shower ready so you can cool off. The many characters in this first book in the Green Mountain Romance series is just as diverse as ever. You got the Abbott family and their many family issues to some adorable yet intriguing characters from around the town. I can honestly say I fell in love with more than Will and Cameron, I fell in love with the whole town itself and the people who live there.

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE is truly one of the best books I have read about small town life and romance. Ms. Force takes the small town boy meets city girl and turns it upside down and inside out to make something new to enjoy in a genre that sees hundreds of the same old stories and makes it shine like a diamond. With each page of th is book, I fell more and more in love with the entire story and now I am eager for book two. I am finding that I need my Abbot family fix in the worst way and look forward to more books about them and the small town that stole my heart. Kudos to Ms. Force for creating a story and a series that is fresh, new and one you can’t help but fall in love with.
