At First Smile by Melissa Whitney

4.0

This delightful romance hooked me from the start. Pen Meadows, a disability advocate, and Rowan Iverson, a hockey player, meet in the cutest way at an airport. Their chemistry is instant, leading to a whirlwind romance. But when reality sets in back in Los Angeles, Pen learns Rowan isn’t exactly who she thought. I loved how this story explores not just love but acceptance and personal growth. The disability representation and Rowan’s journey to prove himself make it even more special. The side characters add warmth and humor, creating a rich, layered narrative. If you love sweet, spicy, and heartfelt romances, this book is for you.
