This is a heartwarming, laugh-out-loud romance that blends small-town charm with the chaos of reinvention. Hazel, a struggling writer at a career crossroads, takes a wild leap—ditching New York for a rundown house in rural Pennsylvania. She’s hoping to find inspiration, but what she actually finds is a town on the brink of collapse and an infuriatingly attractive contractor, Cam, who’s as grumpy as he is irresistible. With looming deadlines and a home renovation project that’s as messy as her life, Hazel is in way over her head.
What makes this story shine is the delightful contrast between Hazel’s free-spirited, city-girl energy and Cam’s no-nonsense, small-town practicality. Their banter is electric, filled with wit, frustration, and undeniable chemAistry. But it’s not just about their slow-burn romance—Score weaves in a deep sense of community, quirky townspeople, and a feeling of hope that makes you want to pack up and move to a charming (if slightly broken) little town yourself. Cam’s close-knit family, especially their love for rescuing animals and helping their neighbors, adds warmth to the story, proving that sometimes, home is more than just a place—it’s the people who make it feel that way.
With her signature humor and swoon-worthy romance, Lucy Score crafts a novel that feels like a warm hug. Story of My Life isn’t just about Hazel finding her writing spark again—it’s about love, belonging, and taking a chance on something unexpected. Whether you’re here for the hilarious mishaps, the slow-burn tension, or the feel-good small-town vibes, this book delivers it all with heart and charm.
