My Review:
Whew! Okay, so when does book 2 come out??
If you know me at all, you know I don’t read a lot of contemporary romances or even a lot of contemporary for that matter. I really have to be in the mood. But this one? Oh my goodness was it painful when I had to put it down for other life! I could have EASILY read this thing in one sitting if I had the time. The tension and was MASTERFUL. Scarlet and Jake’s past was so well developed and their friendship so deep, that you couldn’t help but cheer them on while also recognizing the deep wounds that needed healing before they could truly move forward. I really appreciated that the author didn’t shy away from faith in this story and that the characters truly sought God’s direction in their lives and it felt truly organic to the narrative instead of added in. Although you are given a satisfying ending, I was NOT ready to let these characters go in the end. I now sit and wait impatiently and have to wait for the next book in this series to release. Can it come tomorrow?? Haha.
*I purchased a copy of this book. Thoughts and opinions expressed are mine alone.
A series of heartbreaking setbacks behind her, Scarlett Sykes is now focused on creating the best life possible for her daughter. One where innocence and joy is not colored by rejection or loss. While finances are tight and Scarlett’s job isn’t ideal for a single mother, her child will always know she’s loved. Especially since Harmony’s father wanted nothing to do with them. As lead singer and the face of a successful country band, Jake Turnquist’s closest friends depend on him, but life in the spotlight is quickly losing its appeal. At a party celebrating another accomplishment, he’s stunned to discover Scarlett assisting the caterer. Almost ten years have passed, but he’s never forgotten his first love. In the hours after a surprise revelation, Jake scrambles to orchestrate a way to spend time with Scarlett and Harmony—the family he’s always wanted but never knew he had. He once gave her up to pursue his music. What will he have to surrender to win her back?
