The title of the book refers to main character Nora Kelly. She doesn’t want to be tied down and enjoys her life and womanizing lifestyle. Her big Irish family has lived in London for decades and is her foundation. When her sister Mary tells her, "when love hits, and it will, it’ll come with a wallop”, Nora can only scoff. That is until she sees the one in a crowded pub. The one is Geraldine (Ger) Flannery.

This is a star crossed lovers falling in love instantly. There is flirting, food, walks, and passion. There is also a decades long family feud. Everything is told from Nora’s POV but there is no doubt of Ger’s emotions. Best friend Sue adds a little filler to this short novel (154 pages), giving her a set up for a follow-up book. You need to believe in insta love for this book to work for you and it works for me. The only part I didn’t love was a hotel scene that felt out of place.

I was introduced to Cheyenne Blue’s writing from a GoodReads friend and happily jumped into this book. The cover also drew me as I’ve walked that street in London many times. This book was originally released in December 2015 and is part of a four book stand alone series. Thank you Ylva Publishing for the ARC via NetGalley and I’m leaving a voluntary review.
