Torran quiere mantener la historia de su ciudad natal Ivy falls y evitar que las inmobiliarias compren casas para convertirlas en condominios prefabricados. Hace 6 meses estaba grabando una de sus restauraciones con un canal de tv, ese día todo iba mal y cuando se le cayó un bote de pintura en la cabeza explotó y dijo cosas feas a la gente del pueblo, la cual vio el video y ahora es la enemigo #1.

Beck es publicista, vive para su trabajo y para cuidar a su hermana la cual es alcohólica y drogadicta.


Fueron novios hasta que a los 17 la familia de Beck decidió irse de viaje por todo el país por todo un año, durante ese tiempo se supone que se comunicarian por llamadas y mensajes, pero hubo un accidente y los papás murieron, Torran intentó comunicarse con el para ver como podía ayudar, sin embargo, él le escribió diciéndole que lo dejara en paz, que no quería volver a saber de ella. Unos meses después lo vió con otra chica, lo dejo ir y no se vieron por una década hasta que él compró la que era su casa.

Cuando se vuelve a ver ella no quiere saber nada de él, pero cuando la contrata para restaurar su casa no le queda de otra que interactuar y se enterara de la verdadera razón por la que la dejó.

Hay falta de comunicación tanto en el pasado como en el presente.


Estoy de acuerdo con lo que dijo Manny en el capítulo 42, pero tampoco tienes que esperar a la persona a que esté lista, uno debe seguir con su vida.

Ojalá Tessa y Many tengan su libro.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Stars

Meet Me in Ivy Falls by Amy True is a delightful and heartwarming story that beautifully blends romance, personal growth, and second chances. The book's dual point of view format adds depth and allows readers to fully immerse themselves in the lives of both Torran and Beck.

What I Enjoyed:

* Dual Point of View: The dual perspective format really shines in this book. Both Torran and Beck have strong, distinct voices, and it’s wonderful to get inside their heads to understand their motivations, fears, and desires.

* Strong Main Characters: Torran and Beck are well-developed and relatable. Torran’s determination to rebuild her life and Beck’s struggle to confront his past make them compelling protagonists. Their chemistry is palpable and their interactions are filled with a mix of tension, humour, and warmth.

* Supporting Characters: The supporting cast is rich and diverse, each with their own unique stories and personalities. This adds depth to the small-town setting of Ivy Falls and sets the stage for potential future books in what could easily become a beloved series.

* Realistic Themes: The book tackles heavy topics such as trauma, addiction, and loss with sensitivity and realism. Despite these serious themes, the overall tone remains hopeful and uplifting, showing that healing and redemption are possible.

* Light and Hopeful Tone: Despite the heavy topics, the book maintains a light and hopeful tone. It’s a story about second chances, forgiveness, and the power of love and community to heal old wounds.


Meet Me in Ivy Falls is a charming and heartwarming read that combines the best elements of romance and personal growth. Amy True has created a vivid world with memorable characters and a story that’s both entertaining and emotionally resonant. The blend of humour and romance is perfect. The witty banter between Torran and Beck keeps things light-hearted, while their growing connection adds a layer of sweetness to the story.


If you love stories about second chances, small-town charm, and the power of love to overcome past hurts, this book is definitely for you!

Thank you to The Publisher Canelo ,The Author Amy True & NetGalley for an advanced reader copy (ARC) in exchange for my honest review.

This story gave me all the feels…. Happiness, sadness, hopefulness, and more. Beck and Torran are perfect. And perfect for each other. They both just have to push through past hurts to get there. Beck most definitely hasn’t had it easy but once he bought his old house back and helped repair it and have Tor back in his life you could tell that was exactly what he needed. Tor needed it too. She need to move past the past hurts caused by Beck, her father, the town. It was hard for her but once she did, she found her happiness! Piper Beck’s sister has a long way to go but I sure hope there is more to her story. And of course Tessa and Manny and the girls. I truly hope we have another story about them!
You will laugh and cry during this book. Some sad tears and happy ones!!

Amy True introduces readers to the small town of Ivy Falls in the first book of the series. Torran and Beck were childhood sweethearts; life events separated them at the age of 17. Ten years later they reunited back in Ivy Falls and the sparks began flying. But both Torran and Beck experienced loss and grief since they'd last been together. Is their love strong enough to move forward in life together?

The setting immediately reminded me of Gilmore Girls and in the author notes she shared the show was an inspiration! I always enjoy a dual point of view format and in this book both characters were so strong. The supporting characters were all so unique with their own stories, I can easily see how this will become a series. While heavy topics were discussed--trauma, addiction, and loss, the book overall was light and full of hope.

Thanks to NetGalley, I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

It's a nice read that showcases two people with a past and how they come together. I just felt some parts didn't feel genuine or authentic. It was a good story overall, but I'm not sure it's one I would reread.

Review to come…

Love the cover ❤️
Description is interesting.
Author is new to me.
