Book Synopsis
He was never going to leave the island, and she wasn't going to stay. But if she walked away, she would always wonder . . .
For digital content creator Cretia Martin, home is wherever her carry-on suitcase lands. And it's constantly landing in new places as she travels the world. She's never been interested in settling in one spot--after all, houses are just places that collect junk and tie you down. But when she literally bumps into local dog breeder Finn Chaffey on Prince Edward Island and all the tools of her trade end up in the harbor, she can't exactly leave until she gets things sorted out.
Finn is horrified by the part he played in the accident and offers to help, arranging for Cretia to stay with a friend at the beautiful Red Door Inn. The longer Cretia is forced to remain in one place, the more she discovers what she's been missing with life on the road--and the more she wants to see Finn and his business succeed. But helping him means staying put, the one thing she always swore she wouldn't do, and risking the only thing she's never put on the line--her heart.

My Review
"Sometimes You Stay" is a charming romance featuring characters you'll easily relate to. Cretia Martin and Finn Chaffey are completely different in what they want from life. A simple, accidental meeting on Prince Edward Island brings them together unexpectedly.
What really made me smile about this story:
-The way they meet, thanks to Joe Jr., with water playing a part.
-The adorable animals Finn cares for, including dogs, tiny puppies, a cow with a unique personality, and lively goats.
-The warm-hearted locals who quickly welcome a stranger as one of their own.
-The immediate bond between Finn and Cretia. It felt genuine and sweet.
Some could see this as just another rom-com, but it’s more than that. The main characters carry scars from their past which hold them back from opening their hearts again. Letting go of old hurt isn’t easy, and both Finn and Cretia face that challenge. I was so relieved when they started tearing down those walls and revealing who they truly are. Their first kiss makes every moment waiting worth it.
"Sometimes You Stay" is a warm, uplifting story with a sweet, clean romance, sprinkled with humor and moments of healing. It’s a perfect addition to your summer reading list.
