Review: The McKenna's Haven series is batting a thousand!
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 05 1, 2013
Having read the first two books in the McKenna's Haven series, I couldn't wait to devour this one. I was not disappointed. I loved Jack, your basic good guy. He's a local sheriff, -I kind of pictured a current-day Andy Griffith without the twangy accent. Just your basic down to earth, average kind of 'Joe'; -decent, honest, and godly. Then there's Jesse, someone who's walked a path that's unimaginable for most of us. Unfortunately, many people share similar experiences to her. Those experiences left her scarred, physically and emotionally. She's such an innocent in everything that happened in her life, you can't help but love her and root for her. It takes a while however, to figure out what happened, and why she makes the choices she does. Like many in her shoes, it's kept a secret. Jack is not portrayed as some bigger-than-life romance novel hero. He actually turns out to be a real-life kind of every-day hero, offering unconditional acceptance and healing as best he can in his own imperfect way. I really like the banter these two had, and the sparks that flew as they found their way.
