Summary
Addie Heywood thought she was doing okay after her fiancé dumped her just weeks before their wedding, claiming he’d found someone else more compatible with his health food tastes. But when he marries the other woman three months later, Addie needs to get away. Leaving her home in Idaho, she escapes to Mitchel Creek, Georgia to visit her Aunt Janie. She just wants to spend the next two weeks enjoying her aunt’s southern cooking, not dodging the guys her aunt is determined to set her up with.
Chase Nichols isn’t looking for love. His dream is to trade his computer mouse for his guitar and make it big in the country music world. If he can land a job in Nashville, he might have a shot at getting discovered. His plans get derailed when he does his neighbor a favor and picks up her niece, Addie, at the airport. Things get even more complicated when his ex-girlfriend comes back into the picture. That’s when he hatches a new plan. Since Addie wants to avoid her aunt’s matchmaking schemes, and he wants to avoid his ex-girlfriend, they’ll fool the world by pretending to date. What neither of them counts on is actually falling in love.
Praise for the Book
“Often times when I read multiple books by the same author I am worried that the later books won’t live up to the first one. That is NOT the case with Under a Georgia Moon. I was hooked on Cindy Anderson’s writing with Fair Catch and then again with Discovering Sophie and now with this book.” –Sara Ebert
I love all of Cindy’s books, but so far this one is my favorite! I just didn’t want it to end. Definitely a book that I will read over again. –Dana Weaver
My Review
Under a Georgia Moon was a really cute and sweet romance. It had everything you look for in the genre: two attractive and fun characters, some tension, a little humor, and a little sizzle. It had a plausible story and was an entertaining read overall.
I really liked both of the main characters: Addie and Chase. They were fairly well matched. There were a few spots that I wanted them both to have a little more backbone, but they definitely weren't perfect which made them feel more authentic. The romance was definitely forefront in the story, which you'd expect, and was a little cheesy in spots. The story did have a good balance of humor, a little danger, some bittersweet moments, and some things thrown in the way of these two coming together to drive the story. I really liked the involvement of both Addie's and Chase's families because they added a lot to the story.
Under a Georgia Moon was fun, clean, sweet, and ended with a happily-every-after. I'm looking forward to seeing what Anderson writes next!

About the Author
Hi, I’m Cindy Roland Anderson. I write clean, contemporary romance with a combination of humor, romantic tension and some pretty great kissing scenes. I’m lucky to be married to my best friend. I love being a mother and have five amazing children. Our family has expanded by adding a son-in-law, a daughter-in-law, and four adorable grandchildren. I’m a registered nurse and work in the newborn intensive care unit. I love to read, almost as much as I love writing. And I love chocolate, probably a little too much.
