Publisher Description
Has Life Ripped Away Her Ability to Love?
Renzo Drakos’ job has taken him to every corner of the world, and he’s loved every minute of it. The freedom has helped him bury many demons from his past. But as he’s watched his huge family start families of their own, he feels like something is missing. He wonders if his wanderlust will allow him to stop long enough to find a woman who will capture his heart.
Millie Randolph has struggled all her life. As a child, she barely survived when her family home burned to the ground and she lost her beloved parents to the flames. Her aunt and uncle reluctantly took her into their family where she shut down. Emotionally and physically scarred, she feels flawed and knows she’ll never be loved again. Years later she finds herself at her parent’s farm, trying to fulfill their vision. What others say can’t be done makes her even more determined to achieve what has now become her dream.
When Renzo meets Millie, he finds the missing piece of his broken soul. Knowing this gentle woman has been through so much, he refuses to be another person who lets her down. Will Renzo be able to see that living in one place is not a cage, but with Millie, it’s a home? And will Millie open her heart to believe that love is possible, or has life taken away her smile forever?
Customer Reviews
Her Hidden Smile
Her Hidden Smile is book 2 in the Protectors of Jasper Creek series by Caitlyn O’Leary and a great addition!
This book grabs you right from page 1 and doesn’t let go til the last word is read! The prologue about Renzo life before he bacame a Drakos leads into his destiny with Millie and how he brings her back into the land of the living after a devastating fire takes her family, her self confidence and leaves scars. This story has compassion, romance, some snarky humor, patience, understanding and so much more…if you haven’t read this series you are totally missing out!
I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy (ARC) of this book from the author. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Show Me the Beauty
I love the warmth of this book and Jasper Creek. Beloved characters from other series add color (and remind me that I need to reread some other beloved books). Caitlyn O'Leary has a special talent to spin her stories and build wonderful families within a series. And keep me reading late into the night. In this book Millie and Renzo, each with scars, find their way. Bravo!!
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
