Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour & Giveaway for Seasoned by Jayme H. Mansfield, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: Seasoned
Author: Jayme H. Mansfield
Publisher: Lighthouse Publishing
Release Date: November 3, 2020
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Essie White battles loneliness two years after the death of her husband. Her romance-writing daughter suggests that her mother try online dating. Essie agrees, seeking male companionship only, not a love interest.
Widower Lou Rizzo isn’t seeking love either. But he accepts his friend’s dare and posts his profile on the dating site, although he uses an alias to safeguard his identity.
Essie and Lou meet, and their initial attraction soon develops into a friendship neither wants to lose. Lou, however, must confess his part in a decades-old incident that he feels Essie cannot forgive. She, too, harbors secrets that may jeopardize their future together.
As the relationship grows, each must decide whether to reveal the truth about their past mistakes, lost dreams, and fears for a chance to love again.

IN MY OPINION
Seasoned by Jayme H. Mansfield is not your run-of-the-mill romance. With Essie and Lou in the latter years of their lives after good marriages, they’re both unsure they want to pursue a second romance.
But from the moment these two meet, there’s a connection between them. And as they spend time together, their pasts—the happy memories as well as those they’ve hidden in their hearts and minds—are shared.
Mansfield gives readers a gentle, well-paced romance that proves falling in love isn’t reserved for a certain age and it can bloom again.

Hooray for the romance of a mature couple! But I am intrigued by the secrets that each have, especially the “decades-old incident.”
