Afraid to Hope
MJ Nightingale
Louisa Sears is ready to start over. Escaping her small town where prejudice, long memories, and old fashioned values haunt her, Louisa embarks on her dream of finding love, and a man who can warm up her bed at night. Pregnant at sixteen, divorced from an abusive husband at twenty, and raising a daughter alone, Louisa is now ready to live. She wants what every woman wants. A rock hard man, who knows how to love. Will Florida be the place where her dreams come true?
Jay Russell is battle scarred. A past filled with horrors from childhood, the war in Iraq, and the most devastating event of his life that occurred when he returned home, he is definitely not looking for love. When he first meets Louisa Sears, the bombshell with the fantastic body, he wants one thing, and one thing only, her body underneath him. The hot little ticket that walks by his t-shirt shop, meets all his requirements for a night of passion.
The scars in them run deep though, and they both have secrets. Can two people so deeply wounded by the past learn to trust each other enough to share those secrets? And if they do, will they be able to get past them and learn to hope again?
5 Stars
This book has amazing character development that made me feel every emotion that they were experiencing right along with them. MJ Nightengale is a talented author who made me laugh and cry, get angry and everything in between with the characters. The storyline was great and it drew me in first thing and kept my attention. I liked that the characters were older one being a single mom and that the romance between them was super hot!
This is the third in the series but they can be read as a stand alone. I recommend this book and you should one click ASAP!
