I was completely hooked on this story! Elizabeth @Carolina Chic’s Read
Jill has always had a hard life, every time things look up she is knocked down. So when her life takes an unexpected turn rocking her toward a series of events that are far out of her control… someone is looking out for her and she gets more blessing that she could ever hope to find.
This story soothed my soul and was just plan fantastic!
Finished the Audible with 24 Hours…. this says a lot as I usually take days to finish.
The Audio seem a little in and out but the overall performance of the story was good… not enough to bother me.
Surprising complexity and emotion:
This was the second book in the Betrayal to Bliss series and looks at the situation this time from the other woman’s point of view. It is not necessary to read the first book in order to understand and enjoy this one. It was
quite heart breaking at times but also showed how it is possible to overcome life’s tragedies. I just wished that I felt more depth from the characters. The timeline also flipped back and forth a bit which disrupted the pacing somewhat.
After finding out that her boyfriend lied to her, Jill finds herself alone with a new baby to care for. Her boyfriend’s family surprisingly steps in to help and I liked seeing how supportive they were despite having to deal with their own differing emotions and responses to the situation. Poor Jill has had a tough life and I was so pleased to see things finally work out for her. Johnny was a protective alpha male but I liked that he had a tender side too.
From a medical point of view I wished more details were given regarding her injuries and surgery rather than just saying she was in the ICU.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. All opinions expressed are solely my own.
This was one of the first books of Aiuthor Tiffani Lynn. I enjoyed the storyline and the unexpected twists and turns, kept me turning the pages. Never lagged the story was believable and the characters well cast. Enjoyed this book very much. I will follow this author.
This is quite a complex story about Jill Pierce, a young woman whose childhood was filled with verbal abuse and sadness.
Now on her own, she has been involved with Matt Browning, the man she’s been having a relationship for almost a year. When she tells him that she’s pregnant he gets furious, wants her to have an abortion and disappears from her life.
Already struggling , she’s determined to take care of her baby and let the father know about the child. Imagine her surprise when Jill discovers not only that he was married, but also is now dead.
Though shocked , the Browning give her a hand and in doing so, one of Matt’s brothers, Johnny, starts to have feelings for Jill. But as things get complicated, will they find happiness together, or will the past and intervening individuals hinder their HEA?
It’s a story with a complex plot, with well developed characters. It’s also a story about family. How for some, their childhood is full of sorrow and while for others, it’s one filled is love and forgiveness.
I would like to add that the narrator did a good job of differentiating the voices throughout the audio rendition.
