Posted September 17, 2017 by Marsha in Contemporary Romance / 0 Comments

Skye Littleton said goodbye to her job, her best friend, and her home in Rhode Island to start over in Billings, Montana, with Vance Sandler, a gorgeous guy she met online. On her cross-country flight, Skye shares her happy story with her seatmate, Harvey Wright, a Billings resident who knows Vance—and his reputation for heartbreak. Harvey’s infuriating advice to Skye? Go home.

When Skye arrives, she discovers that Vance has changed his mind and wants nothing to do with her. Despite the setback, Skye is determined to rebuild her life and begin a new chapter in Montana’s largest city, which sometimes feels like a small town. With Harvey’s help, Skye finds a job—and a passion for organizing closets and clearing out clutter. But as she grows closer to Harvey, she finds herself homesick for her former life. Could Harvey be her future, or is she his chance at revenge? Can Skye finally trust her own heart enough to let it show her the way home?

Most of us, at some point in our lives have finally felt enough is enough of this, taken a leap of faith into a new situation… and had the rug pulled out from under our feet as we land.  Yeah, Skye’s experiencing that right now.  Her family is a group of worthless people who would rather tear her down than lift her up… ever.  She’s headed out of the state she’s grown up in, leaving behind just about everything to be with the man who says he has a new life waiting for her with him at her side in Montana… except maybe not really.

Big Skye Littleton is a thoughtful, realistic journey into self-worth, self-confidence and finding out that you are an amazing person with gifts you never knew about.  As Skye discovers just how bad her situation is right now after being stood up, she’s grateful for the mind-saving seat mate who just might turn into a friend, if not more.  While Harvey might have been proven right about Vance, he’s also willing to help Skye begin her new life in Montana with no strings attached.

This time it’s Sky’s turn to shine as she makes a new life for herself on her terms, her rules and her decisions.  No one to be compared to constantly.  Just Skye, Harvey, her cat and the chance at new friends, new experiences and a new beginning.  Big Skye Littleton comes alive with vivid descriptions of beautiful Montana, with a realistic feel between Skye and Harvey as well.  It is possible to pick up the pieces of your life and land in a good spot.

I enjoyed this story very much.  I’d recommend it for any reader who enjoys Romance in any genre.  It’s got a good life lesson that we all could benefit from reading.
