Blog Post: Steal My Magnolia by Karla Sorensen

“Steal My Magnolia is more than a love story. It's a beautifully crafted journey of life full of obstacles but a journey worth the travel with the right person.” --Author Andrea Johnston

RATING/REVIEW: ☕☕☕☕☕ (5 cups for this small town romance whose love at first sight trope didn't go as one intended!)

Steal My Magnolia is the third book in Karla Sorensen's Love at First Sight series, which is set in Green Valley, Tennessee, an offshoot of Penny Reid's Green Valley world. Love at First Sight is the Buchanan family curse? blessing? For Grady Buchanan who grew up outside of Green Valley it feels like both! Specially since the object of his affection happens to be his sister's boyfriend's ex girlfriend. Yes complicated doesn't even begin to describe the adorable mess he finds himself in. Magnolia MacIntyre has always lived in Green Valley. The beloved daughter of parents both from prominent and well off families in the region, she's always been protected by her father. Longing to finally be able to live her life making her own decisions, she takes job where for a little while anyway she was nearly unknown. Until Grady finds out who she really is and more importantly until she finds about the Buchanan curse of love at first sight. Now these two have to find a way to navigate a complicated situation to maybe have a chance at the falling in love part of their journey.

Steal My Magnolia makes you take a second look at the romance trope of love at first sight. Grady's and Magnolia's situation makes you think that it's definitely wonderful, that love bit, but its also isn't as easy as it seems. Magnolia's self identity, the way she grew up, the way that most of her life wasn't in her control (although this was coming from a place of love rather than something darker) love at first sight will definitely feel like even in a relationship where she can exert her own agency, its still being thwarted by a family curse. This was makes this book stand out, how the love at first sight can feel from another perspective. Grady's character work more for the relationship also because he wasn't a believer until he got the bug. He needed to step back and make the girl choose on her own which makes him a marvelous male lead. Choosing despite the odds he might not really get his happily ever after. I love how it all worked out in the end!

Steal My Magnolia, an all-new heartwarming small-town romance from Karla Sorensen, is now available in Kindle Unlimited!

Life lesson from Grady Buchanan: If you’re going to fall in love with the untouchable girl in town, don’t hire her as your only employee.

Even after he bungled the interview with Magnolia MacIntyre, he knew better than to hire her. The list of why it’s a bad idea is a long one.

Her father could ruin his fledgling business.

She is completely overqualified.

And he’s attracted to her.

What does Grady do? He offers her the job.

Magnolia knew better than to take it. Normally, she’d make the safe choice, and working for Grady is anything but.

He’s new in town–and entirely too charming.

Her dad will be furious.

She hates the outdoors and working for an outdoor adventure company is not exactly the right fit.

What does she do? She says yes on the spot.

Grady and Magnolia will have to prove to everyone in their life that they’re not crazy. And prove to each other that the list of why it’s a bad idea should be tossed out the window.

For these two opposites, sometimes doing the wrong thing is exactly right.

‘Steal My Magnolia’ is a full-length contemporary romance and can be read as a standalone. Book #3 in the Love At First Sight series, Green Valley Chronicles, Penny Reid Book Universe.

About Karla Sorensen

Karla Sorensen has been an avid reader her entire life, preferring stories with a happily-ever-after over just about any other kind. And considering she has an entire line item in her budget for books, she realized it might just be cheaper to write her own stories. It doesn’t take much to keep her happy…a book, a really big glass of wine, and at least thirty minutes of complete silence every day. She still keeps her toes in the world of health care marketing, where she made her living pre-babies. Now she stays home, writing and mommy-ing full time (this translates to almost every day being a ‘pajama day’ at the Sorensen household…don’t judge). She lives in West Michigan with her husband, two exceptionally adorable sons and big, shaggy rescue dog.
