Written in the Stars: a story of self-discovery, romance and finding a new purpose

Written in the Stars is the first book in the Northern Lights Romance trilogy by Noelle Fox. With her restaurant’s failure fresh on her mind, Grace Cooper seems to be at a turning point with nowhere to turn. Until she gets a deathbed letter from the father she thought was already dead. It was her father’s dying wish and offer of a free vacation at an Alaskan island resort. Desperate for rejuvenation, Grace jumps at the chance to relax, renew herself and learn about the father she never knew. That last thing she expected to do was run into Connor Reed, a man from her past who humiliated her. Connor has no idea why Grace doesn’t like him but her memory has been the drive force that turned his life around. He is determined to discover why she hates him so. As secrets and truths are revealed, can Grace and Connor learn to trust on only each other but themselves? 

Written in the Stars is a fast paced, sweet romance. There’s moments of laughter and banter. Moments of drama and tension. I enjoyed Grace and Connor’s story. It was complex with real human shortcomings and flaws with vulnerabilities and touching moments. I eagerly read as the truth unfolded and yet I didn’t want it to end. I also enjoyed the storyline with Grace and her father and the truth behind his absence from her life. I read reviews that complained the story was “open ended” and while it is a trilogy, Grace and Connor’s story is well rounded and I didn’t feel that the author left it open at all. Readers will most likely see more of Grace and Connor in the rest of the trilogy; but their romance was wrapped up pretty well. I thoroughly enjoyed Written in the Stars and I look forward to reading the rest of the trilogy. If you enjoy second chance romance, I highly recommend Written in the Stars. 

Written in the Stars is available in paperback and eBook.
