Hideaway Cove by Anna SullivanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received a copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
Hideaway Cove is the second book in the Windfall Island series. The book begins describing the island and some of it's residents, along with a baby they smuggled off a ship. Many years later, someone is searching for the lost heir to the Stanford fortune... Trying to kill her, whoever she is.
I did not read the first book in the series, but this was a great book by itself. Book 2 is Jessi & Hold's story. Jessi was 16 & pregnant when her boyfriend left her and moved away. Eight years later, she is a single mom to her son, Benji. No longer the naive girl, she has a hard time trusting men. She is satisfied with her son being the man in her life. Holden came to the island to trace the genealogy of residents and try to find the heir. He does not share information about his life on the mainland, he's afraid of just being wanted for his wealth again. He wants Jessi and pursues her relentlessly until she finally agrees they have chemistry. Hold cares for Jessi and her son, but just isn't ready to give his heart away. Jessi is devastated when she finds out Hold's secret, seeing no future together. When Jessi & Bengi's lives are in danger, thought to be the missing heirs, Hold realizes his true feelings and rushes to try to save them... and make them a family.
Secrets, warring emotions, romance, suspense; this book has a little bit of everything, making it an intriguing read!
