Chemistry Lessons by Rebecca Jamison {Book Review}

I just recently got to review this book called Chemistry Lessons, by Rebecca Jamison.  I really liked this book a lot and would give it a 5 star rating!  It was a fast paced read that kept you wanting to not stop reading. It was a very clean, sweet romance novel. The east coast boy trying to fulfill a promise to his brother who passed away move into a country town and meets Rosie, a girl that has been through a lot trying to live her dream of owning her grandparents ranch. I really liked the storyline, and the title was very clever.  The two teach science classes at the local high school, and also the chemistry that goes on between them as soon as they meet! A lot of these romance novels have a pretty predictable ending, but this one had some good twist in the storyline.  There was a slight mention of some abuse in Rosie’s life, but it never goes into detail, and in fact it sounds like she got away from the abusive situation before anything too bad happened.  It’s a great story of finding love, having hope, forgiveness, sacrifice, and honesty.  I would for sure recommend this book to any young adult.  

Chemistry Lessons by Rebecca Jamison

Synopsis-

Her mother named her Hurricane, but she prefers Rosie, the name her grandparents gave her when she came to live with them on their ranch. Now an adult, Rosie’s found the ordinary life she craves, teaching science at Lone Spur High School, rescuing animals on her grandfather’s ranch, and dating the safest guy in town. When millionaire-entrepreneur Destry Steadman moves next door with plans to build a resort, she takes it in stride. He may be handsome and athletic, but he can’t even ride a horse. How much harm can he do? She soon finds, however, that Destry’s plans affect her more than she realized. In fact, they may threaten the safety of the whole community. What’s more, he has a knack for weaving himself into her life, and she enjoys his flirtatious banter more than she wants to admit. Now she has to decide whether her heart is with her steady boyfriend and her beloved ranch or with her swoon-worthy neighbor. Chemistry Lessons brings to life two opposites—a crazy Western cat lady and an Eastern businessman—and tells the joy-filled story of what it means to be in love.
