Blog Tour: Draw Me In by Megan Squires

Welcome to my stop on the tour for Draw Me In by Megan Squires hosted by Xpresso Book Tours! 
---------------------------------------
Review
This is one of those books that's just completely enjoyable to read. It's got a great personality and some aspects that go a little deeper than most NA novels do. Plus, what's not to love about the whole Italy, art and wine elements that highlight the main parts of the story?

I loved the serendipity of the cities that brought Leo and Julie together. Everything seems so coincidental, which usually drives me crazy, but instead of randomness it feels like something right falling into place. The back and forth between New York and Italy is just wonderful as well. Both places are vibrant and create a great sense of place for the novel.

The characters were just wonderful to spend some time with. They're like friends that you meet on vacation - fun, a little exotic, and you get the highlights of their lives. While there are some more serious things happening, it's still a lighter book. I was definitely expecting something different, with that "This is not that story" tagline, but what I got was great as well. This is a book that I'd recommend if you need a good dose of love and European settings.

About the Book
Draw Me In by Megan Squires 
Publication date: January 7th 2014

Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

He’s a young, up and coming businessman with the keys to his family’s Italian wine enterprise.
I’m a fine arts student, navigating life in the Big Apple, my pencil and sketchpad in hand.
We meet. We fall in love.
But it’s not that story.
Sometimes, by a rare gift of fate, two lives cross paths. And hey, if that happens to occur when staring at Michelangelo’s naked masterpiece, even better. We can tell our future children how a seventeen-foot tall marble guy named David brought us together.
But there’s always more to a relationship than its beginning and ever after. In life, there’s a whole lot of backstory. There are ex-fiancés and hot roommates and family members whose advice continues, even beyond the grave.
When you say you love someone, it’s never just that one person you’re saying it to. And it’s never just that one moment that sets everything in motion.
There is always more that draws you in.
