Her Hidden Hope

GIVEAWAY
LYNN, JILL
HER HIDDEN HOPE

She once trusted him with her heart...but will she ever trust him with the truth?

With only two weeks to renovate her family's Colorado B and B, struggling single mom Addie Ricci can't turn away help. Especially not when it's her handsome high school sweetheart, Evan Hawke, who's offering to pitch in. As they repair the B and B, Addie and Evan also begin rebuilding their relationship...until a secret from their past threatens to bring it all crashing down.

A Colorado Grooms story

My Review:

This is another Love Inspired novel with a gorgeous cover. Really sets the tone for the story inside. And I am continuing to appreciate the diversity the Love Inspired line is bringing to readers each month.

Jill Lynn is a sublime storyteller. Love the way she digs deep into her characters and delivers a complex story full of heart and hope. And there's a dog, people! A clever, empathetic guide-dog flunkie. :-) And a rambunctious toddler with too much energy for his exhausted mama to keep up with. Addie is overwhelmed -- by life and past failures and the challenge of starting up a B and B business. She can't handle one more thing -- especially not the reappearance of her high school sweetheart.

Evan's only in town for a couple of weeks -- enough time to fix up his parents' house and put it on the market. He never stays in one place very long. Especially not in the small town he grew up in. Too many bad memories -- including the tumultuous ending of a summer romance.

Angst oozes off the page as these two circle around past hurts and insecurities. And secrets. There are sweet moments too. And funny ones. And a great cast of secondary characters (including Belay, Golden Retriever extraordinaire!) and a real slice of small town living. The kind of story that warms your heart and curls your toes.

  4. Wonderful cover! Shame the house doesn't face the mountain because I could see myself sitting on that porch admiring that view. And of course, there's a cute pooch to boot!

    "HER HIDDEN HOPE" sounds like a great read and definitely one I'd enjoy diving into. Love inspired, pooch, toodler AND second chances - count me in.

    Thank you for the opportunity to win a copy!

    1. Let's pretend there's a back porch that's facing the mountain and we can have a tea party book club there. :-) Good luck, Kay!
