Publisher Description
From bestselling author Stacey Lynn comes This Time Around, an emotional and sexy standalone contemporary romance!
Five years ago I married the man of my dreams. He was supposed to be my last first kiss--my happily ever after. He promised to hand me the world, but in one night, all of those promises were shattered.
Now, I was barely surviving the tragic loss of my husband, struggling daily to manage what was left of the life we'd promised to build together, when Cooper Hawke unexpectedly walked into my life.
The Hollywood heartthrob had plenty secrets of his own and his eyes held the same darkness as mine. I couldn't stop myself from needing to know why. And as much as I tried to keep him out of my heart, he slipped past all my defenses.
We both had pasts that destroyed our trust and had broken our hearts, but nothing will stop Cooper from trying to convince me we could have it all this time around.
Customer Reviews
Great Start to a New Series
What a great start to the new series Love in the Heartland by Stacey Lynn, this author is fast becoming one of my go to authors and if this book is anything to go by she has another hit series on her hands.
Rebecca and Cooper have both had their hearts broken, both destroyed by people who should never have hurt them but they are both strong in so many other ways, she is determined and he is kind and sincere maybe they need each other to heal their broken hearts and move on.
A hot successful actor finds himself on a cattle farm just outside Kansas, he knows nothing about farming but Rebecca does but is she willing to teach him and is he willing to learn.......
This is so much more than just a romance story, this is a journey where two people who aren’t looking for love manage to fall in love, they both need to learn to trust again and maybe they just need each other. The characters are easy to love and I found myself getting wrapped up in their emotional roller coaster, I found myself hopping and praying this couple got the happiness they so deserved and the author didn’t let me down. It’s great to read a book where you love all the characters, main and secondary and I can’t wait to read more in this this series.
A totally great read
From start to finish, going through the hurdles of death, love and tornados.
Fantastic read. I wanted to keep reading. Throughly enjoyed page.
A great read
4.5 star Review This Time Around (Love in the Heartland #1) By Stacey Lynn
This was an emotional roller coaster of a ride to read with moments of grief, anger, guilt, romance, passion and oh so much more.
Escaping from a bad marriage break up, actor Cooper Hawke is given the opportunity to escape the press by staying and helping out on Rebecca Splendid’s ranch.
Cooper has no idea that Rebecca is a widow, and is surprised by her manner and sharpness at times. Once he knows the truth it all begins to makes more sense. Told in dual POV’s I found both the leads to be strong, yet vulnerable characters; two people broken and without realising it, desperate to heal and find true happiness.
I was entranced with the story that Ms.Lynn wove, wanting desperately for Cooper and Rebecca to open their eyes and their hearts, to give love a chance to grow.The chemistry between them was blazing, with the romance slowly building between the movie star and the rancher.
I was drawn to Cooper almost immediately, Rebecca not so much, but as their story unfolded she grew on me, particularly as the depth of her hurt was revealed.
This is an emotional read and one that is well written with characters who are believable and easy to relate too. The secondary characters were just as interesting as Cooper and Rebecca and I hope to read their stories in the not too distant future.
