What I loved most is how upside down everything is turned in his case. Hannah’s friendship infuses in him a sense of trust and he just blossoms as well. He feels he is a joke for his fishermen colleagues, never seriously taken into consideration as something more. He seems all strong and brave, a lady’s gentleman, and, yet, he doesn’t trust himself either. I felt I watched a real person mature.įox is a sexy, carefree flirt fisherman.

As she puts it, she grows from a supportive character into the leading lady and I found this growth so natural and beautiful and exactly right for her. This self trust is what seeps into her personal life as well. She is willing to take more risks, even listen to her instincts more as her trust in herself grows. She has a passion for music and follows her passion into a wonderful career. Hannah is lovable from the start and yet her character develops so beautifully! She learns to truly grow and trust herself. Their friendship is nurtured by small, beautiful acts they each do for one another and becomes stronger with time. Each of the characters helps the other become better, improve in what they need, develop emotionally. It’s one of the best romances I’ve read in a long time that focuses on support. The book follows their friendship and how it evolves, but, more than that, Tessa Bailey creates two complex characters that complement each other. This is the perfect opportunity for Hannah and Fox to get to know each other better, especially since Hannah has to stay with him. Surprisingly, they listen to Hannah and they all came to the village to make their movie here. However, now, she has convinced the production company with whom she was working that Westport is so beautiful and the perfect location for their movie. “Hook, Line, and Sinker” starts with Hannah and Fox having kept in touch in a platonic way, given that Hannah already had a crush on one of her colleagues. While on her first visit, she had befriended fisherman Fox Thornton.

In the meantime, Piper has decided to remain here and Hannah is an occasional visitor. In “It Happened One Summer”, Hannah and her sister, Piper, had come to a forgotten fishermen’s village after one of Piper’s dramas to stay for the summer and learn more about their father’s legacy.
