BOOK REVIEW- HER SECRET LOVE-Small business owner and metalworks artist Damon Brand finally has his future in sight when his past rattles into town in a broken down car stuffed with designer clothes and sky high heels. The last time he saw Jess, he declared his undying love. In return, she stranded him by the side of the road, taking his boots, pants and the tattered remnants of his heart.
So much for the bright lights of LA. Failed actress Jessica Palmer arrives back in Cherry Lake, Montana homeless, destitute, and desperate. She’s hoping her grandfather will let her have her inheritance early so she can make a fresh start—anywhere but Cherry Lake. No deal. She has to stay for six months and get a job to prove she’s matured. Not easy in a town where she flamed all her bridges in order to flee a wild child reputation and her high school sweetheart.
With every door that’s slammed shut in her face, Jess grows more determined than ever to prove she’s changed, even if it means she must turn to her first love, Damon, for a job at his gas station. Surely 10 years is enough time for him to forgive and forget…AMAZON *** 3 Stars is what I'm giving it on Amazon when it comes up for Sale on 9/1/15.
This story was an emotional one. There were plenty of wounds to go around when it came to Jessica (Jess) and Damon. I liked both Jess and Damon, even as different as each one was. Jess was the flighty appearing one. She felt deeply but also had deep insecurities. Damon was the intense, hardworking, responsible one. She brought light and fun to things and Damon was so busy he almost had no time for fun. I had to give Jess credit for grit staying in THAT town. Yes, I know she was desperate but man there were some humiliating times for her. She did rise to the occasion many times, often showing her own unique style. There were also more than a couple times that the story made me smile as well.
I received a ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
