Low Country Dreams

GIVEAWAY
MCCLAIN, LEE TOBIN
LOW COUNTRY DREAMS

Return to Safe Haven, where a new beginning with your first love is only a heartbeat away.

Yasmin Tanner has devoted her life to making other people's dreams come true. But between running Safe Haven's women's shelter and caring for her brother, the long days -- and lonely nights -- are catching up with her...until Officer Liam O'Dwyer knocks on her door. She had good reasons for breaking Liam's heart all those years ago, but that hasn't made sharing their small town any easier. She's missed him -- that's painfully clear to her now. But that's not the only secret she's keeping from him.

Ever since Yasmin left, Liam has kept his head down and his chin up. But when a woman from Yasmin's shelter goes missing, leaving her teenage son alone, it hits home for Liam. He'll do whatever it takes to reunite this family...even work closely with the one woman he can't forget. Yet as late summer days turn into cozy autumn nights rekindling the past, Liam suspects yasmin is hiding something. And where her loyalties fall could mean the difference between lost love and a second chance at forever.

My Review:

I enjoyed the first book in the Safe Haven series (one of last week's giveaways) so much that I raced back to the library and managed to get my hands on book 2. Love that the books in this series are being released so close together. The third one will be out in September and it looks to be a doozy! But let's concentrate on Yasmin and Liam for now. What an angst-riddled second chance (if we can claw our way through all that aforementioned angst) love story!  And a stellar cast of secondary characters plus lots of brotherly love and a suspense element. This book kept me hopping right to the very last page. Again, it's not a Christian fiction selection but it is a clean read. I love the way the author tackles some tough subjects with compassion and grace.

Side-note: There's the continuation of a secondary character plot point from the first book that's resolved in this one but the author does a great job of catching new-to-the-series readers up to speed so Low Country Dreams could be read as a standalone. Rita's story will make more of an emotional impact though, if you've read Low Country Hero.
