No life stories. Those were the rules. Once upon a time a cocky, copper-haired tourist sauntered into Zara’s bar. And even though she knew better, Zara indulged in a cure for the small-town blues. It was supposed to be an uncomplicated fling—a few sizzling weeks before he went back to his life, and she moved on. Until an accidental pregnancy changed her life. Two years later, she’s made peace with the notion that Dave From Brooklyn will never be found. Until one summer day when he walks into her coffee shop, leveling her with the same hot smile that always renders her defenseless. Hockey star Dave Beringer has never forgotten the intense month he spent with prickly Zara. Their nights together were the first true intimacy he’d ever experienced. But the discovery of his child is the shock of a lifetime, and his ugly past puts relationships and family out of reach. Or does it? Vermont’s countryside has a way of nurturing even tortured souls. The fields and the orchards—and hard won love—are Bountiful. Review: 5 Fabulous Stars!!! - Oh how I LOVE the Sarina Bowen's True North series! I fell in love with the characters the minute I started book 1 and even as I finish book 4, I cannot get enough of them! Bountiful brings a bit of a change as Bowen moves a bit away from the Shipley family and focuses on Zara, a secondary character that has appeared throughout the series. The book can definitely be read as a standalone so if you are just starting the series, you will have no trouble following along. However, there are definitely some major spoilers for previous books so be forewarned that when you are done with Bountiful, you will certainly want to go back and inhale the rest of the books from the beginning! The story begins in the past and then jumps forward 2 years. Bowen does a fabulous job jumping from past to present and then jumping again to the future. These transitions are done seamlessly and they compliment the story well. As for the characters.....LOVED THEM! Of course I have loved all of the characters in the series so far (hello there Griff, one of my favorite book boyfriends!) but there was definitely something special about Dave, the hot-as-sin, dirty-talking professional hockey player who's story affected me in ways I wasn't prepared for. I loved the chemistry and absolute draw these Dave and Zara had towards one another. Both have these tough, hard outer shells, projecting to the world that they don't need anyone and are strong survivors. Yet, beneath the surface, they both have scars that have left them vulnerable and soft. The shock of a surprise baby for both of these two independent souls is a game changer and when Dave returns and begins to accept his daughter, I seriously melted. Bowen does a beautiful job of writing Dave's transformation and I couldn't help but fall in love with him right along with Zara. Bowen introduced an entire new cast in bountiful to compliment long-standing favorites. Zara's family is brash and bold and I hope that her brothers will get stories because there's so much more to these men! Readers will love catching up with the Shipley family and their respective mates throughout. I can't get enough of the True North Series and can't wait to see what Sarina Bowen gives us next. 5 fabulous stars for Bountiful! Review: 4 Pretty Little Stars - Bountiful is the 4th book in the True North series by Sarina Bowen but can be read as a complete standalone. If you (like me) have been reading the series from the get go then you will realize that the characters are interconnected. I enjoyed seeing some of my favorites from past books within this one. In addition to this, fans of Sarina Bowen will enjoy seeing the crossover between this series and her Brooklyn Bruisers series. Zara; the novels heroine, is Vermont bred through and through while David is a hockey player for the Brooklyn Bruisers. The two meet while David is vacationing in her neck of the woods. What sparks after they meet is an explosion of fireworks. The two can hardly keep their hands off of each other and it's easy because both know that it's just a little fling. Nothing can go wrong with a couple of one night stands together right? WRONG! David leaves her a little present behind in the form of baby... That's right folks! We have a surprise pregnancy trope in this book and Sarina Bowen does a wonderful job bringing it alive. David was a great character- he's unexpectedly charming and Zara was just as enjoyable as he. I won't get much more involved in the plot because there is no need for me to (you can read it for yourself if you're interested) but it is a good book. I would certainly recommend it to fans of the author, fans of surprise pregnancies in romance, and for those who have been following the series. --- The Nitty Gritty --- What I Liked - The crossover between this series and the Brooklyn Bruisers series. It was fun to not only see the characters form a relationship but see some of the the secondary characters who have easily warmed their way into my heart in each book. - This book was NOT all drama like one may expect. Things between the characters are pretty easy from the get go and the pregnancy/impending fatherhood was not as complicated as one would imagine. - The setting. I love how this book and series takes place in Vermont. Small town living and family values are major cornerstones of the series and this is not neglected in this novel. - The characters. I loved the development of the relationship ESPECIALLY the second half of their relationship and how it progressed. It wasn't too fast or too slow. It just felt perfect. What I Didn't Like - The fact that there wasn't ENOUGH farming going on like in the first three books. I have grown to love this series based on it's uniqueness in setting but I just didn't feel it in this one. I think this has a lot to do with the fact that Zara wasn't related to the Shipleys (who I have grown to love). There was a real sense of family and contentedness with them and it was lacking in this book. Hopefully, Sarina will bring us more of Griff's family in later books. - The fact that I had no problem putting this book down. I'll admit, this wasn't my favorite book (probably because of what I mentioned above) so I didn't feel quite as excited to read it. I could put it down for a couple of hours, read a few pages, and then put it down again. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #27,391 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #150 in Sports Fiction (Kindle Store) #187 in Sports Fiction (Books) #4,116 in Contemporary Romance (Kindle Store) | ## Images ![Bountiful (True North: Small Town Romance Book 4) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71C+8tDEqlL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Fabulous Stars!!! *by L***N on December 18, 2017* Oh how I LOVE the Sarina Bowen's True North series!

OMG!! I am in love with Dave Beringer!! I mean, like, “go to Brooklyn and look for Gingers in the hopes that one is the fictional Dave Beringer” kind of love. Because I did that. Today. I have no shame. I have not read the previous 3 books in the True North series (though it will be happening soon, I just ran out of time), but I have read the Brooklyn Bruisers books, and so I had an in on that side of things. And this book just made me want to read the rest of the True North series even more! Though I honestly don’t know how Ms. Bowen can top this story. Like, it was f-ing sexy, and funny, and heartwarming, and none of the characters pissed me off (because there was potential, but it didn’t go that way), and even though I read this over a week (which is unheard of) because I am on vacation, so I had to sneak in reading time whenever I could, I still fell in love with it. Honestly, it just makes me excited for when I reread it and truly devour it from cover to cover. Probably when I read the rest of the series, b/c I’ll no doubt have a different perspective on Zara. Zara was her own special brand of stubborn, and feisty, and damaged. I really enjoyed having a heroine who is really in touch with her own sexuality, but isn’t necessarily comfortable with it...it was a weird dichotomy. Like, she was interested in sex from a young age, but she was also branded as a slut because of it, so she wasn’t self-accepting, you know? She just kind of believed the things that people judged her for. It was kind of heartbreaking. But I kind of loved it. Because you know in so many romance novels there’s a girl that gets slut-shamed… Zara might have been that girl, you know? So it shows that side of the coin. But her story was so much more. She was a product of how she was raised, and she really didn’t have a lot of direction in life. It was interesting to see the changes that becoming a mother wrought in her, but at the same time she still had a lot of healing to do. And Dave. *swoon* Like, I don’t even know why he does it for me so much. Maybe because he’s just so unapologetic. Like he said at one point, he’s a bit slow to learn and grow, but he’s not a dick. He had his own damage to get past, and I enjoyed that his bachelor ways had a...reason, I guess. I loved (in a tore my heart out way) learning bits and pieces of his tragic childhood, and how that shaped him. I loved his relationship with his sister. Honestly, I wouldn’t have minded a more clear resolution with his past...but I might have missed something because I had to intersperse my reading. Did he ever tell Zara about his past? I can’t remember. ANYWAYS. I have a soft spot for Gingers (sssshhhh, don’t tell my hubby), and holy *bleep* was his bossy take charge attitude in the bedroom sexy as *bleep*. Like *fans face*. AND then there were all the times he grinned during sex. I can’t even, you guys...like can’t even. There was just something about the way Dave and Zara fit together that had me on board right from the start. I LOVED the “past” section. I fell in love really soon. And I LOVED the way the present played out, from the start right to the very end. I loved the secondary characters (and I’ll probably like some of them even more when I get to read their stories). Basically it was just all sorts of goodness (with a few minor things I was confused on, but again...could be just me -- like the car thing). Anyways. I want a Dave. Someone get on that stat.
