BLURB
From USA Today Bestselling contemporary romance author Evan Grace, comes a brand-new touching story about second chances and the jagged road to forgiveness.

The weight of the world sits heavy on my shoulders. The men in my life have left me broken and bruised. I know that I have to dig deep to find the strength to pick up the pieces and move on. However, there is just one problem, or one man standing in my way.

Hank Burns.
My ex-husband.

It's been five years since our divorce. I lost everything back then, and if I'm being honest, I've just been going through the motions. I just want to be alone, I want to salvage the pieces of me that are left and move on, but Hank is adamant that we give us another try. Can I really start over with the man who broke my heart into a million pieces?

When we were together, I thought that he and I could handle anything. It was us and our love against the word. Life, unfortunately, had other plans, and we experienced a tragic loss before we ever got to test our us vs. the world fairytale.

Life once again intervenes and brings us back together, but the demons from our pasts threaten to move in and ruin everything. Now it seems as though our second chance could be taken from us too.

Good thing we’re both prepared to fight for our happily ever after.

MY REVIEW

Brooke's in the last place she'd ever thought she'd be - her ex-husband's home. When her boyfriend assaults her, Hank and his family, both his biological and his MC brothers, become her own personal protectors. Not only is she surrounded by the ghosts of her past with Hank, but the result of Hank's betrayal in the form of the most adorable little boy, has decided he's her new best friend. How is her heart going to survive all this close proximity? Can she ever forgive Hank and embrace him and his son with her whole heart?


Second chance stories are usually some of my favorites. Unfortunately, this one didn't quite work for me. It's not horrible or anything, and there are some great characters - Brooke, Hank's son and family, but I just can't get past the circumstances that brought Brooke and Hank to this point. His betrayal just doesn't seem to be something a real person would be able to forgive. The way it's sort of brushed under the rug didn't set well with me either. So though the writing is good, I dislike the plot and don't feel as if Hank deserved the second chance Brooke gave him.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
