Review: Two romances in one book
Rating: 4 out of 5

Loving Ellie by Lindsey Brookes is an enjoyable story concerning second chances to love and grasp hold of life. Both of the main characters have a connection through Jarrett’s death. I think this is a realistic plot since I have an ancestor who in fact did marry the brother of a husband who died. This is a bit more modern since Ellie had not actually married Jarrett. This book is not a happy read since the characters have to deal with the loss of those they love. Yes, I know that Ellie didn’t really feel like Jarrett was her soul mate but it is implied that she loved him as a friend. Lucas’ suffering from his loss of family made this a more sad drama read.The second romance going on distracted from the story Ellie and Jarrett, but I enjoyed the Sherriff and Victoria as much as the main story. I think they could have gotten their own book. All in all, I found this a likable read.Copy provided by NetGalley for an honest review.
