Book Review: All is Bright by RaeAnne Thayne

Hello! Dominique Gibson is back with another post. So, I started reading this book around the holidays but considering I have made this year to be the year that I decided to make the leap from being an indie author to trying to be a hybrid author (Me going from just doing it all myself to me (indie) to me doth both (indie and traditional publishing), I have been super busy working on multiple projects.

Despite my busy schedule, I did take the opportunity to take a break from my hefty schedule to finish reading another five star review book from one of my favorite authors of all time, RaeAnne Thayne. Let’s get started with my overall book review and rating for the book All is Bright.

Rating: Five Stars

Title: All is Bright

Author: RaeAnne Thayne

Publisher: Canary Street Press

Published: 2022-2023

Summary: Sage McKnight is an ambitious young woman on a mission: To show off her latest architectural project on her YouTube channel and to let the world know about her latest design, Wolf Ridge, in the town of Hope’s Crossing. The problem? Her grumpy client, Mason Tucker, a former baseball player who was involving in a major accident that ended his career and caused him to be in a wheelchair due to the severity of the accident. Despite her designing the marvelous house and wanting to be able to show it on her channel, she quickly realizes that Mason Tucker will be one tough cookie to crack considering the emotions he feels about being on camera and talking about his story from him being one of the greatest baseball players to where he ended up being a in wheelchair caused by a terrible accident. Sage McKnight doing the renovations of Wolf Ridge is more than enough for him as he continues to be cold and distant to her during the process.

However, the spirit of the holidays is upon them and although they try their best to stay away from each other as much as possible, that becomes impossible for them to do when Mason’s daughter Grace and her friends ends up going to different places to celebrate the spirit of the holidays and invites Sage to come along to the events despite the growing tension between her and Mason. However, the growing tension ends up being a hot and passionate attraction between them that they try their best to ignore but finds out that the attraction is a little more than they can handle…until they decide they can’t hide their true feelings for one another and how they would feel if an opportunity of falling in love again passed them by during the holidays…

Overall opinion of this book: I loved it! I felt like the author did a really good job when it came to the cast of characters in the book (Sage, Taryn and Mason). The story kept me intrigued about what was going to happen next when it came to these characters. I adored Grace and her friends throughout the book along with her relationship with her father and the intimate moments they shared together. It was nice to read a story where the hero is flawed to where he starts to feel angry and sorry for himself because of the circumstances he is in (Him being in a wheelchair for instance) and how the heroine tries her best to get him to learn that there is more to life than what he is experiencing and tells him off a couple of times on the life he could possibly live with her and his family if he would let go of the past and explore the future with them

I don’t want to give too much away because I really want people to read this book for yourselves (It’s going in as one of my favorite books of all time). If you love a romance with sweet, tender kisses, a love for family, and a hero and heroine you want to root for from beginning to end, then I would suggest you go out and read this book.

Enough said.

That’s all for now. Please be sure to check back on this website for more updates, tips, book reviews, and the latest posts on my writing and reading process. I will be very busy this year but I will be trying my best to catch up on some projects that I was supposed to do last year but never got around to it (But I will soon this year I promise). Anyways, I have to go now.

See you soon.
