Quite simply, I think Crazy Over You is Daisy Prescott’s best book yet. I adored this charming, fun and tender romance. Ms. Prescott was able to find right balance between fun and serious in this story – there are some very tender moments in this book that hit me right in the heart, and yet I laughed so much while reading Mara and Jesse’s story too. It engrossed me so much that I didn’t want to put down at night to go to sleep. I devoured it!
Timing is a big theme through the book – just as it is in life. Mara is a veterinarian who just moved to Aspen and Jesse and his dog, Fern, both work as ski patrol. The two meet in an interesting way while Mara is skiing, but Mara realizes that this isn’t the first time they have met. They crossed paths two years ago when she was visiting Aspen on a trip. Both of these characters first meet at the wrong time when they were on the cusp of growing up, and now they are two people who are settling down in their life with their pets and are ready for something more.
As in all of Ms. Prescott’s books, the characters and the setting are the gems of this romance. No one else writes locales in books better than this author in my opinion. I love how she describes settings - I can close my eyes and be transformed there. And isn't that why most of us read? To be whisked away to an exotic location with characters who are relatable and could be our friends? I could feel the cold temperature on my cheeks and the snow crunching beneath my feet and see the Rocky Mountains through Jesse’s bedroom window.
The character development is well done as well. Written in dual POV, the reader has a chance to experience how the characters feel, and gain insight into their life histories. Ms. Prescott specializes in writing average, ordinary characters who I want to hang out and have a beer with. I can relate to them. Mara is quirky and delightful with sassy wit and Jesse is a bit of a hermit who cooks some amazing TexMex. He loves his dog, his job and has a quiet sense of honor and respect for those around him.
Additionally, I loved how the author made both characters dog lovers and how important their dogs were to them. They are written well into the story, not as props but as a way these two characters relate to each other. My favorite secondary relationship in the book was Jesse's relationship with his dog, Fern.
Also, the chemistry between these two is palpable! The author creates excellent sexual tension with humor and teasing dialogue. I loved how these two verbally sparred with one another
Daisy's books are like warm blankets, hot tea and a cozy fire on a cold, snowy day. They are refreshing, fun and charming with a dose of wit. I adored this one. It's easily become a new favorite. I highly recommend Crazy Over You for when you just want to smile and get lost in a story with everyday characters who are embarking on a special journey of love, commitment and family – definitely a 5 star read.

I am mad about Crazy Over You. Daisy Prescott has written a book full of feels and every single one is way beyond wonderful. She has once again managed to make me laugh until I sigh. There is this incredible balance between humor and tenderness and I couldn't help but smile with each turn of the page.This is the ultimate feelgood kind of story that will fill your heart with utter joy. Mara Keiley and Jesse Hayes find themselves face to face again after an interesting night two years prior, and it's anyone's guess whether or not they will admit that to the other. With the gorgeous backdrop of Aspen as their home, they play a flirtatious kind of cat and mouse game and I loved every minute! I have a huge girl crush on Mara, the new Vet in town. I couldn't help but fall for her honesty and wicked sense of humor. It's no wonder Jesse regretted not getting her phone number when they first met. She is addictive, being the kind of woman we all want as a bestie. And her furry roommates in Tapper, Fred and especially George will have you giggling often.And Jesse. Holy swoon. He is a sexy, bearded member of the Ski Patrol and what I wouldn't do to get rescued by him on the side of a mountain. He is so perfectly suited for Mara, knowing when to let her ramble incessantly, watching with adoration. In addition, the love he has for his faithful companion in Fern the wonder dog, made me fall for him just like Mara did. He exudes this quiet and almost restrained kind of masculinity like he doesn't know what he does to womankind yet is comfortable enough in his skin to know when to flirt mercilessly. Who could resist? Not this reader!We get glimpses of the other characters we previously met in Next to You and I'm thrilled that the author has decided to continue this series. It is so smartly written and has the most endearing characters from Jesse and Mara, to even the man who owns a sled dog kennel. Even Landon, the man full of classless bravado was a necessary component despite my lack of affection for him.Daisy Prescott knows how to craft a story that will not only win your heart but will have you begging for more. Her attention to detail continues to set her books apart from so many and you will feel as if you are right there in Aspen, hearing the crunch of snow under your feet while staring up at an endless blue sky.Crazy Over You is a book NOT to be missed. It is pure delight from start to finish.A huge 5 stars!
