Enjoy this heartfelt romance from Jill Lynn, part of the sweet and emotional series Colorado Grooms.
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.
My Review 💙
I am a sucker for second chances, and Jill Lynn did an incredible job of bringing Addie and Evan's story to life. Evan and Addie are high school sweethearts that had to part not too long after high school ends, and end up reconnecting when they both find themselves back in their hometown.
It's been ten years since they've seen each other and though their connection is immediate, and still electric as ever, Addie has brought home with her a secret that she knows she must tell Evan, but doesn't know how. Evan agrees to help her with a major project and it is this truth that puts her in bondage, keeps her at arms length from Evan, and gives an air of mystery and apprehension to the novel. You know she's going to tell Evan eventually but, just like Addie, you don't know when or where it's going to happen, or how Evan is going to take this life-altering news. It's hard not to get hooked on the drama and mystery, and I was engaged until the very end.
I loved the playful banter between Evan and Addie, but little Sawyer stole the show, and my heart. He is the perfectly adorable relief amid the adult drama that swarms around him, and I caught myself smiling at several scenes that included him, especially when Belay was with him.
The light and breezy flow of Her Hidden Hope is refreshing, giving the lighthearted hope of love, forgiveness, second chances, and happy endings mixed with the apprehension that comes with untold secrets.
Though this is apart of the Colorado Grooms series, the author does a masterful job of keeping the reader up to speed, so you never feel lost. It is well written with such heart, and was a great quick read that I thoroughly enjoyed.
