Lexi Blake - Bayou Beloved review

Quaid is the town hero, if you will. Being the only lawyer, he looks out for the residents. Jayna had no plans to return to Papillon, but life hadn’t gone as planned. She finds herself back and taking clients. Soon, she and Quaid are adversaries. This story was fun to get lost in! I enjoyed the banter between Quaid and Jayna. The chemistry between them was just right and undeniable. They may have had to face each other in court, but that didn’t stop them from seeing what was between them. They had each other’s back. I really enjoyed going back to Papillon and seeing what everyone was up to! 



When a woman returns home to Louisiana's Butterfly Bayou, her high school crush finally notices she exists, in a small-town contemporary romance from New York Times bestselling author Lexi Blake.

Quaid Havery always planned to follow in his father’s footsteps. He went to law school and then came home to take over his dad’s legal practice. Being the only lawyer in small-town Papillon, Quaid is pretty sure he’s seen everything. After all, he was once asked to sue an alligator for defamation of character. He’s prepared for anything the town can throw at him, until he encounters Jayna Cardet. She’s gorgeous, smart, funny, and unlike any woman he’s met before....Except he has.

Jayna never thought she’d return to Papillon, but when her life gets turned around she must learn to live in the close-knit community again. She certainly never dreamed she would practice law in her little town, but she finds herself in the courtroom, and the opposing counsel is her former high school crush, Quaid. It wouldn’t be so bad if the man had developed a beer belly, but Quaid is more handsome than ever. And instead of ignoring her like he did in high school, he’s made it plain that he wants to get to know her.
 
Thus begins a courtship destined to end in a wedding or a war. Either way, the locals are popping some corn and eagerly awaiting the outcome.
