Surprised by Love (book 3) by Julie Lessman

Back in November 2014, Julie Lessman released her 3 book in The Heart of San Francisco series.  The first book, Love at Any Cost, shared Cassidy McClare's story.  The second book, Dare to Love Again, shared Allison McClare's story and the third book, Surprised by Love shares the story of Megan McClare.  Below find out the story about this newest release.

From the Back Cover:
She can turn the head of the man who spurned her--but can she turn his heart?

When Megan McClare left San Francisco to study in Paris, no one would accuse her of being poised and pretty.  But on the other side of the Atlantic, this wallflower blossomed into a beauty with big dreams.  When she returns to California and accepts an internship at the district attorney's office, she's thrilled that her life is taking shape.  But the exciting opportunity quickly loses its glow when she discovers she'll be working alongside Devin Caldwell, who mercilessly mocked her at school--and with whom she was hopelessly enamored.

Bram Hughes is the best friend to whom Megan has always turned for support and advice.  But when she seeks his counsel about working with Devin Caldwell, Bram's vision is clouded by his sudden unwelcome attraction to a girl he had always thought of as a little sister.  He advises forgiveness, but can he forgive himself for pushing the woman he loves into the arms of another man?

My Review:
I thought that Julie Lessman  wrote a pretty cute story.  The opening of the story was intriguing with Megan leaving to study in Paris as a wallflower and coming home with the beauty she possessed inside matching her stunning looks on the outside.  The way she makes everyone's jaws drop open makes you cheer for the nerdy girl who has turned into a beautiful lady.  Her character was interesting and made the story fun to read.  I have enjoyed reading this series and reading the stories for each of the siblings.  It's fun to read a book already being familiar with some of the characters.  I will say that some of the back and forth between Meg and Brams kinda made me a little frustrated.  Overall, I would say that it was a fun read and a good series.

***I received this book free from Revell in exchange for an honest review.  All opinions are my own.
