ARC Review: Love Me Again by Jaci Burton

Recommended Read!

“LOVE ME AGAIN was overflowing with goodness.”
~ Under the Covers

Jaci does it again! And again and again. The Hope series is one of my go-to series for a feel good story and LOVE ME AGAIN didn’t disappoint. There’s the fact that this is a high school sweethearts that didn’t end up together getting a second chance. Also that the heroine is now divorced and raising her daughter alone. I can’t get enough of these stories.

We’ve seen the sexy Deacon Fox earlier in the series. Loretta broke his heart when she left him after high school and went on to marry a future politician. Deacon has never gotten over the hurt and is not ready to face Loretta now that she’s back in town. In fact, they’ve done a good job at avoiding each other until he ends up working on the building next to her new bookstore. And Loretta’s daughter (and new pooch) soften him up. Small town, kids, animals, sexy construction worker and second chances… LOVE ME AGAIN was overflowing with goodness. I couldn’t put it down.

I loved the characters and their trust again, both for different reasons. But the love they had for each other was always there and it was nice to see them tentatively letting their guard down and showing the other that they still cared. It’s now a more mature relationship and Loretta especially had still some growing up to do and standing up to her parents. It was nice to see the evolution of that as well. And Deacon will have your heart melting at his feet. Swoon-worthy.

I sound like a broken record when it comes to this series, but it’s one of my favorites. This is the perfect summer read and one of those books that will leave you with a sweet smile on your face after you finish it. Even as you’re wondering when you can get more.
