Synopsis

There isn’t a rule out there that love won’t break. For better or worse.

Turning his back on his reckless lifestyle, former frat boy Clay Walsh has settled down to run an antique shop in a small Midwestern college town . . . and to pursue lofty and outdated theories on love and romance. But when Amber Hewson, a free-spirited woman with a gypsy soul, rents the apartment above his shop, Clay can’t help being attracted to her spontaneous and passionate embrace of life. Amber also finds herself surprisingly drawn to Clay, but his ideas about relationships are unusual to say the least, and they bring to light her own deep wounds and fears about love.

They say opposites attract, but can Clay and Amber move beyond their differences and their pasts to attempt an “old fashioned” courtship?

Goodreads review by Ann

Old Fashioned proved anything but. I loved the freshness of Gutteridge's quirky, warped characters. Gutteridge writes about the world I navigate--littered with the imperfect.

Goodreads review by Madison

I enjoyed this novel - it was surprising, fresh and different. It wasn't until I read the notes at the end that I realised the book is a novelisation of a movie (great observation skills right? since it is on the front cover) but never once was I reading it and felt it was missing anything or that i......more
