Lucy Lockhart had it all. A glamorous job, a successful boyfriend and a fabulous apartment. But when she's sent to recuperate at her parents' country house following a sudden illness, she meets dreamy, blue-eyed, Tom McGregor, and suddenly starts to realise what she's been missing.

Tom takes one look at city girl Lucy, and decides to avoid her at all costs. He's been hurt by girls like her before. But there's something about Lucy and as their paths continue to cross, he realises there's more to her than meets the eye.

Despite their deepening feelings, neither can imagine a future together. Lucy could never live in the country and Tom could never go back to the city. The very idea horrifies them both.

Their hearts however, have other plans.

An often hilarious, rural romance with lots of laid-back country charm, a rich cast of characters and a sizzling love affair between two opposites who are deeply attracted to each other

Lucy is staying with her parents in the country after having a fit. She arrives in Lillypilly, expecting that she is not going to enjoy this trip. But then she met Tom, a local farmer, after her car got stuck in mud and basically fall in love at the first sight. The trouble is that Lucy has a boyfriend in the city named Zip who just got a job in New York.

I didn't expect much when I start The Trouble with Lucy, but find that I really enjoy this book. It has the right amount of humor, romance and drama. Although... I do think that the alternating viewpoints between and Tom are a little bit confusing. But, The Trouble with Lucy is a fun, cute read. I read this one in one sitting. I love moments between Lucy and Tom. I wouldn’t say that this is a really great book, but I’m giving this one a four hearts because I really enjoy this one and it makes me smile. If you’re looking for a quick read with cute, light romance, you might enjoy The Trouble with Lucy.
