Her Last Love (Small Town Hearts #1)
by
H.C. Bentley
The career, the man she loved, a family of her own. Then her fiancé issued an ultimatum: come home and marry him, or lose him forever.
Eight years later, Lieutenant Lynn Johnston returns to her small Kentucky hometown with a secret to keep and a desire to find peace. Her planned lifelong career had been cut short by events beyond her control. Now, she hoped that she could forge a new path, one that would heal her heart and help to put her past behind her. Those hopes are dashed when she discovers Carter Mathis, her former fiancé, has also returned and is raising his two young sons.
Lynn must decide if she can deal with not only the old hurt feelings from the past -- and Carter’s soon-to-be ex who has a vendetta against Lynn-- to give Carter a second chance. A deadly collapse at the coal mines where Carter works, an accident that rocks the town, could possibly take the choice out of her hands. Does she confront her feelings and move forward, or leave the life she's always wanted behind?
Review by Gia:
Wow, this is a great story. The character are so well written that they feel real.
Lynn had planned on being a lifer in the military but after some things happen she decides not to relist. She goes back to her hometown, where her ex and past love Carter still lives.
When they run into each other again you can tell the connection is still there. There's a lot of hurt from how then ended their relationship but they start out again by building a friendship.
Carter has an ex wife with who he has kids with. I loved how the kids were worked into the story. Sometimes in the books I read the kids are there but they play not part in the story. Carter's boys were perfectly weaved into the story. Carter's ex, Hillary, is a little crazy. I had excepted Hillary to get a little more crazy in her action but she didn't and after reading the story and looking back her level of craziness was just enough so that she didn't overshadow Lynn and Carter's love story.
This is a great story. You should definitely check this one out.
