Half Shelled Heart
by Jenn Foor
Review
Synopsis
Brantley (Brant) Wallace Jr thought he had it all figured out. Living with his girlfriend of two years, he works hard on the water all day, and even harder when he gets home at night. The struggles of a serious relationship have always been difficult for Brant to digest, though he refuses to give up on what he feels is a good thing.
Jamie Danvers spent her summers on the shore of Chincoteague, Virginia, so after a messy separation from her husband, she moved her veterinary practice to the quaint coastal island. She never expected to run into the first person who ever stole her heart, or that after years there will be residual feelings.
When Brant sees Jamie he can’t wrap his head around the girl who got away from him. Torn between current obligations, and a burning desire to get back what was once lost, Brant struggles with being able to move forward while knowing Jamie is back.
When love throws a good man a curve ball, there’s no telling which road he’ll choose.
Contains some adult content.
Virginia’s Review
Half Shelled Heart is the second book in the Oyster Cove Series and I am really enjoying this series. Although they are standalones, I would read book one first to get an idea of what happened and learn about the characters. And I really liked book one, so I would read it first just because it’s good.
Here we have Brant’s story. He’s currently engaged to Leigh. When his first love, Jamie, comes back to the island after years, unresolved feelings come back to the surface. However, his current relationship is tricky and Jamie has her own things she has to work through. It’s often hard trying to forget your past and the one that got away. But when it unexpectedly hits you in the present what do you do? Can you let go? Do you want to?
I find all of the characters in this series to be lovable and down to earth. Well except Leigh in this boogggggk. Can’t stand the girl- but I won’t get into that and ruin the story for you. Brant is a sweetheart. A confused sweetheart, but a sweetheart. Jamie and him have quite a few things in their way and it was interesting seeing if they could make their relationship work the second time around. I love the dual point of view and how it wraps up. I found it easy to read and fun, even with the drama. It’s a sweet story of second chances and I can’t wait to see who is next in the series!!
