I do love a good rural romance and one from Rachael Johns is sure to have me turning the pages and this one did that, I loved getting to know Ellie and Flynn in the small town of Hope Junction, this is filled with a cast of wonderful characters that all add to this beautiful romance of second chance love.
Ellie Hughes left the small town of Hope Junction ten years ago in a rush and left her fiancé Flynn Quartermaine standing at the altar, this did not make her a popular person in the town but she had her reasons. Finding a new life in Sydney working as an actor on a popular TV show Ellie has done well but when her beloved Godmother, Matilda needs her help Ellie arrives back in Hope Junction and not everyone is happy to see her.
Flynn is running the family sheep farm and doing well these days although it was a few years before he got his life back on track after the girl he loved with all of his heart left him and now she is back in town, he is determined to stay clear but when the people of Hope Junction are treating her badly Flynn with his caring nature steps up to help, this brings them closer together and the walls he has built around himself are falling.
Ellie is so close to her godmother Matilda and when she finds out how ill she is Ellie’s world is shattering around her but Flynn steps up and is there for her and their hearts are joining again like they have not been apart, but truths and trust play a big part in a relationship and there are a few hurdles to cross before Ellie and Flynn find their true HEA. I did love this story and would highly recommend it, it is moving and emotional and there were many tears shed along the way.
