You Cant Hurry Love is the latest novel by author Susan Buchanan.
A 30th birthday celebration. A sloth sanctuary in Costa Rica. A split-second decision.
When Kat MacDonald takes the trip of a lifetime to Costa Rica, she doesn’t count on ditching her dead-end job, sending her uber-controlling boyfriend packing and volunteering at a sloth sanctuary.
But when she finally meets the swoon-worthy assistant manager Dexter, the chemistry between them is unmistakeable and sparks fly. Despite a rival for his affections, and her ex’s inability to know when to give up, she and Dexter are drawn to each other like magnets.
Just as she’s settling into life at the sanctuary and making friends, a letter arrives from back home in Scotland. A letter which could both upset her new plans and give her everything she has ever wanted. Everything except Dexter.
Kat is torn: should she stay in the tropical rainforest paradise with her beloved sloths, new friends and the delectable Dexter or pursue her lifelong dream? Or can she find a way to have it all?
You Can’t Hurry Love is a warm, feel-good escape brimming with charm, heart, and—yes—sloths. Susan Buchanan whisks readers away to the lush landscapes of Costa Rica for a delightful romantic adventure that’s equal parts self-discovery and swoon.
Susan crafts a story that feels genuinely empowering, with Kat’s journey toward independence and happiness as compelling as the romance itself. The chemistry between Kat and Dexter is believable and sweet, and while there’s a love triangle element and an ex who just won’t take the hint, it never overshadows Kat’s growth as a character.
The setting is a true highlight — vivid, sensory, and steeped in the kind of escapism that makes you want to book the next flight to San José and hug a sloth immediately. And while the story maintains a breezy, uplifting tone, it doesn’t shy away from the emotional tension of difficult choices — especially when a letter from home threatens to pull Kat back to a life she thought she’d outgrown.
An uplifting, romantic escape with an irresistible tropical setting, a lovable heroine, and a timely reminder that love — and life — doesn’t always follow a straight path.
