The plot is pretty predictable, which is okay in a summer beach read/romance novel. Now, every romance novel is really a fantasy, but this one added a layer to the typical fantasy by including a little magical realism. In Emmie's family, the women receive a vision showing their purpose (and usually who they will marry).
What bugged me about the novel was Emmie herself. I don't want to call her stupid because she isn't (she's running a business after all), maybe clueless is the better word. There were a few things that I figured out early on in the book, and Emmie just didn't see it. Maybe because I didn't really like Emmie, but the book felt like is was droning on. I feel like it could have been a little shorter.
A Sprinkle of Sweet Serendipity is a sweet read. There is no sex in the book, just a few kisses. And there are some cute characters. Emmie's son is adorable. Dot, Emmie's mom, Walt, and Jakob are great and added to the story.
If you are looking for a book where you can mindlessly lose yourself. then you should pick up this book.
