Change of Pace by Freya Barker follows Newt and his daughter as they move to a new town. Newt had hopes that this small town would help him and his daughter heal after some tragedy. Frederique comes into their life and they all help each other. This is the third book in the Northern Lights Series. Each book is stand alone, and you do not need the others to follow the story. It was an easy read and the dual narrators help to really separate the characters. This was a story full of healing and love. I highly recommend. Thank you Net Galley, for my copy of the book. All opinions are my own. #AChangeofPace #NetGalley
I loved A Change of View, but this one sucked me in from the beginning! I instantly connected with the characters and really felt for them. I can't imagine what it was like for Millie to lose her mother at such a young age. On top of that, after all that happens living with your father fulltime all of a sudden and him being a cop. That had to be hard. Newt is an amazing father though. That little girl is his world and he will do everything to make sure she is okay. Freddy seems like a wonderful person. Not only does she do the hard work as a therapist, she loves animals and doesn't have the easiest past either. A Change of Pace is a story I couldn't put down. Freddy and Newt don't have the greatest first meeting and this made it so much more fun. There was no instantlove or anything like it. At first, Freddy is only there to help Millie and neither of them expect to feel anything for each other. The romance and story in this book is slow, but that is the perfect pace. No rushing, because of the attraction, but really thinking it out and thinking about Millie. It takes them so long, even Millie tells them they should date, haha. All of the characters in this book have their own past and things they need to deal with. And each and every one of them is stronger because of this. There are some obstacles along the way in this book, but they didn't feel out of place. It was nice to have a romance without the drama of cheating, a crazy ex coming back to haunt them or break them apart. The troubles they had weren't something they could control. While I felt bad for the characters, this was refreshing to see in a romance. This was a perfect addition to this series and I was sad to say goodbye to these characters.
