BOOK: And Then Love Came Along
AUTHORS NAME: Janine Campbell
RATING:4/5
MY TAKE:
As the title suggest this book is all about love. If you truly love someone, you will always find a way to stay together. Rachel and Sam are so much in love that they can't live without each other. Yes! they do fight like every other couple, they disagree with each other's opinion but at last, despite all these problems, they found a reason to stay together.
The dialogue delivery in this book is super apt and its mold is perfect. The female protagonist is presented on the page as intelligent, capable, and clever, not as someone who's always sad and that's my most favorite thing about this book. Although sometimes this book did break my heart but it's fine because it always put it back together. This book is super optimistic and hopeful to the point where it rewarded me with a happy ending.
WHY YOU SHOULD READ IT:
-The book embraces its lineage of Fireworks and impassionate declaration of love with pride.
- The female protagonist sketched as a smart, intelligent and capable woman, not some dumb chick who fell madly in love like some other cliche book.
-The book is hopeful above all, it made me realize that we should never let go of people we truly love.

AUTHOR TALKS:
"Hey, I’m Janine Campbell and I’ve just published my first book. It’s called AND THEN LOVE CAME ALONG… and it’s a romantic story about finding love after heartbreak and loss. When I’m not writing, I love reading other romantic novels but I also like fantasy and period dramas and books about spirituality and personal growth. I’m a single mother of two, so I spend most of my spare time with my girls, roaming through forests or swimming in one of the lakes nearby. The time in quarantine has been difficult for us as a family because I lost my job. But it's also been great for me because it’s given me the final kick (and also the time) I needed to write this first book and I hope you like it!"
