Seaside Blessings

 
GIVEAWAY
HANNON, IRENE
SEASIDE BLESSINGS

The Healing Place

Starfish Bay could be a fresh start for Kristen Andrews…even if her new landlord isn't exactly tossing down the welcome mat. Haunted by his past, Clint Nolan isn't ready to open his heart to another woman. But Kristen's also harboring a secret—the daughter she gave up for adoption nine years ago. When the little girl arrives in the California seaside town, upending Kristen's entire world, the cop-turned-park-ranger can't walk away from them. For he's beginning to feel part of the family of two. Can Clint convince Kristen it's time to claim their long-overdue happy ending?

My Review:

Classic Hannon. Whether she is writing gripping suspense or intense love stories, Hannon thrills me every time. This author has an amazing capacity for creativity and fresh ideas. A simple love story in her hands is anything but simple. Taut with complications, Clint and Kristen's romance has a rocky start and plenty of dips and dives to keep a reader on her toes. I loved watching their hesitant, sometimes clumsy attempts at navigating the rough patches and gloried when their efforts met with success. A heartwarming love story that made an inspiring impact.
