Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl
"Heartfelt, emotional, and beautifully told. Absolutely one of my favorite books of 2018."-5 stars, Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews
With divorce and infidelity hanging from every branch of her family tree, Katherine Fuller sees no point in marriage. Boyfriends? Sure. Sex? Of course. Wedding vows? No, thanks. Still, when her younger sister Amy gets engaged, Katherine’s on board with everything—dress fittings, the florist, and bridal showers. She won’t let Amy down. She did plenty of that as a kid, starting the day she told their dad that Mom was having an affair.
As if planning her sister’s big day isn’t enough excitement, Katherine’s college love walks back into her life. It broke her heart to part from sexy Irish musician Eamon a decade ago, but falling back under his spell means confronting secrets she’s been hiding for years. One will forever ruin the sunny way Eamon sees her. The other will destroy her bond with Amy. But some secrets are too explosive to hide. And when the worst comes to light, Katherine must rely on the one thing she’s never, ever trusted—love.

SECRETS OF A (SOMEWHAT) SUNNY GIRL is a rockstar romance and a second chance at love, with complicated family dynamics and secrets, and a whole lot of wedding angst.
This was my first read by Booth and while I was immediately sucked into the first few chapters, I pretty quickly lost that loving feeling. I wasn’t really convinced there was chemistry anywhere to be found to sell me on this second chance reunion, instead it felt very clicnical and remote. I was frustrated by the previously mentioned wedding angst which included lots of sisterly drama, which builds and builds and by the time it resolves you’re just tired. There were piles of secrets and sorta red herrings scattered around the plot to drive the readers’ interest and that annoyed more than intrigued me. There was a precocious child character that didn’t win me over, as they so rarely do, and just.. on and on. Maybe it was the writing, maybe I was just detached because for all the emotional elements at play, I couldn’t feel any of it. But this also, conversely, just felt over the top.
However, if any of these tropes (including sexy! single! dad!) turn your crank, you might enjoy this read.

Secrets of a Somewhat Sunny Girl by Karen Booth transcends the contemporary romance label, it is an epic story of second chance love, of family secrets, of heartbreak, forgiveness, and love. This is author Karen Booth at her best and this book contains everything I look for in a romance and more.
To say the Fuller sister’s views on marriage are a bit skewed is putting it mildly, but when Katherine’s younger sister Amy gets engaged Katherine is determined to be by Amy’s side from the planning to the big day and she’ll try to keep her opinions to herself. However when a man from Katherine’s past comes back into her life, she finds being with him brings back memories of a better time, but the memories of the day they lost their mother keeps her from trusting her happiness.
This book tugged on my heartstrings for many reasons so bear with me while I go through and discuss why I loved this book so much. The accident that took Katherine and Amy’s mother was tragic on many levels, but the revelations that Katherine was made aware of that day and the secrets she’s kept since she was a child of 10 are a burden no one should have to carry. In all honesty Katherine’s childhood stopped the day of her mother’s death and she has spent her entire life trying to live up to the promises she made that day. I wept for that little girl and all she lost. The time she spent with Eamon in Ireland at 21 was the only time she was free and happy and while she worried about her sister and father back at home, she let herself LIVE during this period knowing that when she returned home she would be back on duty to her family. I was thrilled that Eamon came back in her life, that he was determined to have her in his life and his daughter’s life and that he was so very patient with her as she slowly unburdened herself to him. I appreciated that even though he realized she wasn’t the “Sunny Girl” he once wrote about, he was determined to help her find the part of herself. I shed a lot of tears throughout this book for these sisters, but mainly for Katherine and everything she’d kept inside for so many years. Then there was Eamon’s daughter, Fiona, who helped Katherine in ways no one else seemed to be able to and even the kindness of Eamon’s ex-wife and Fiona’s mom, Rachel had an impact on the way she saw herself. A lot happened in this book, but I never felt like the relationship between Katherine and Eamon got lost, their relationship developed and changed throughout and the love they felt for one another grew with each step.
Secrets of a Somewhat Sunny Girl is one of those big picture books, each and every thing that happens in this story is an integral part and has an impact on the outcome. This book was heartfelt, it was emotional, it was beautifully told, and it was absolutely one of my favorite books of 2018.

This is my first time readying Karen Booth, and I really enjoyed Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl. Katherine and her sister are incredibly endearing, and I they made me laugh and smile throughout the story. Their relationship’s evolution is just as much a part of the story as the romance between Ian and Katherine, but there is still plenty of heartfelt, sexy romance to satisfy. You’ll fall hard for the sexy and sweet Irish musician, and I would definitely recommend checking out Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl!

“Have you ever had a secret that was so bizarre that it didn’t feel real? Like it didn’t feel possible, so you just didn’t tell anyone at all?”
Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl gave us something we’ve not had in a while. A story of a family living in the shadow of tragedy with a closet full of skeletons and strained relationships. The writing was mature, easy to read and quite flawless. For us, it read like this second chance rock star romance took a back seat to the main poignant story, which for us was a tale of two sisters. Two sisters that at first glance come across as happy, settled and care-free albeit it with a dash of pessimism. However, family is often patched up by a band-aid, which when you start picking at the loose end, can reveal a multitude of hidden scars and wounds yet to heal.
‘Was I happier with unhappiness? Or had it just become my default setting, so that was the comfortable place?’
Katherine and Amy are still grieving and living their adult life as a consequence of memories from their childhood. However, one of them has a secret and as a child she made a promise which keeps her locked in the past whilst carrying a tremendous guilt on her shoulders. Deceptions, lies and drama, the sisters vow not to follow the path of their parents which ultimately lead to infidelities and broken hearts. But are vows -of any description- made to be broken?
‘As the words rolled from my mouth, I could see the cold swirling around me. Blue. Black. Silver. The colors came at me like I’d climbed inside a dark kaleidoscope, and the images from the day were whizzing by me so fast I couldn’t keep up.’
The bond between the sisters is tested when Katherine discovers that Amy has decided to take a different path to the one they agreed upon. She’s getting married and she’s moving out of their shared home. That’s the first bombshell of revelations. The second one is that the lost love of her life, whom she hasn’t seen in over ten years, is rocking out in concert and she, Katherine is in the audience. The one and only sexy charismatic rock star, Eamon is back in her life at a time when the ground is already unsteady and crumbling beneath her feet.
‘How does it feel to drown in sadness? To be at the bottom of the deepest, darkest water, looking in the direction that you think is up, eyes wide open, and you still can’t see any light? No sun? That was the way I felt that day.’
This is a wonderful story of finding your inner strength, of forgiving yourself and releasing the self-imposed guilt which binds you. It’s a story of sisterly love, loyalty and protection. A second chance mature love story which buffers and underpins the foundation of healing. A story of tested loyalties, revelations, heartbreak, love and understanding that the past does not have to define who we are or who we are meant to be. Want to be. Sometimes discovering what ultimately lies beneath years of hurt can help us see the true nature of our hearts and it can be a beautiful revelation. Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl is not at all what we expected it to be but in many ways ended up being so much more. This is our first book by Karen Booth and it certainly won’t be our last.
‘As beautiful and incredible as he was, being with Eamon was like flying too close to the sun. Eventually, you’d have to steer yourself away.’

4.5 stars
Second chance romance, family secrets, a rock star (actually he prefers songwriter/performer)…all of these combine to make an amazing story! Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl by Karen Booth hooked me early on and held my heart right to the last word!
Katherine, oh this woman….she’s strong, independent, and she’s skeptical of love and marriage. She has loved and she has lost. Her mother died when she was young (and WOW you won’t believe the circumstances – follow all the bread crumbs!) and she left what was probably the love of her life behind in Ireland when she was in college. Katherine has some big changes coming that she needs to adjust to, and let me just say that for the most part she is so mature about it all and takes it in stride. She shows us that she’s upset but she handles things like an adult. Then….then there is her second chance. Seeing Eamon again after 10 years apart starts a new chapter in her life.
I wanted to see him and be alone with him, even when it brought back the butterflies. Mine weren’t just regular butterflies either. They breathed fire.
Eamon, with his Irish accent and his brooding ways. He knows what he wants and he won’t stop til he gets it. Eamon is just simply amazing. I could not get enough of this man. He is a bit older and wiser now, he is more mature and broody. The fame he has found does not go to his head, he is not your typical “rock star”. He’s a father now with a wonderful young lady for a daughter (she really is something else!) He is down to earth, romantic, determined.
“Because I’m guilty of being a hopeless romantic. I always wanted fate to bring up together.”
Ten years doesn’t seem to matter to these two, Katherine and Eamon pretty much pick right back up where they left off. Quickly working themselves into one another’s lives and learning all about each other all over again. Their road isn’t bumpy, it’s beautiful. There is unsurety along the way but they manage to work through it becuase they are just that perfect for one another. Katherine and Eamon share their feelings, their worlds, their secrets. You won’t be able to get enough of them, I promise!!

I'm a sucker for second chances and this one was served up lovingly. But this story is about so much more than a romance. It's about forgiveness, finding yourself, and realizing that our past may shape who we are and how we look at life but it doesn't have to define us.
***
I first fell for Karen Booth's storytelling in Bring Me Back , a heartwarming yarn spun around an older couple...characters closer to my age. That Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl also revolved around an older heroine and hero was therefore appealing. It's also a second-chance romance. I'm a sucker for second chances and this one was served up lovingly. But Katherine's story is about so much more than her second chance at romance. It's about finding yourself, forgiveness, and realizing that while our past shapes us and how we look at life, it doesn't define us.
What Worked:
*Characters
Booth excels are drawing relatable and engaging characters. I was immediately drawn to Katherine, her sister Amy, and Eamon. I was curious about their pasts, thrilled with their achievements, and rooting for their HEAs. Katherine and Amy's dynamics, with each other and their family, and the idea that Katherine was seemingly a different person - lighter - when she was studying abroad and involved with Eamon were things I found fascinating.
*Plot/Sub-Plot
Katherine was dealing with her past via her sister's wedding and the rekindling of her romance with Eamon. I liked how she went about tackling them both. She had to make peace with things from her past - being from a broken home, losing her mom and her perceived role in the loss, and the secrets she's kept from both her dad, Amy, and Eamon. Katherine had to resolve these issues in order to more forward toward a future she really wanted. The way Booth wove this element into Katherine's journey of self-discovery and forgiveness was well done. I also liked how Katherine's secrets were doled out piecemeal so that the image of who Katherine was and how she came to be that person became clearer and sharper little by little.
*Romance
As I've said, I'm a sucker for second chances so Eamon and Katherine getting one ROCKED. It's been 11 years and yet when they see each other again, it's all still there. The chemistry, the feelings. Yes, they've experienced more life and Eamon was adamant they not start anything if she wasn't serious but everything fell back into place as if fated.
What Could Have Worked Better:
*Loose Plot Threads
There were a few things left untied and although they were minor, it bothered me.
*Character Development - Eamon
Eamon didn't seem to do much growing as a character. There were some areas where if we'd seen a little growth, learned a little more, his character would have had more depth.
Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl was well written and compelling. It solidified my admiration of Booth's talent.
**I received an eARC from the author. This did not affect my rating and my review is provided voluntarily.**

This was a sweet read about the beautiful bond between sisters!
Secrets of a (somewhat) sunny girl is all about family relationships, specially the relationship between the sisters Katherine and Amy. These two have been through a lot and coming from a family were no marriage seems to work or last they have always been set on never getting married. That is until Amy meets someone that is willing to prove to her some marriages do last.
Katherine is petrified of losing her sister, of this guy hurting her, but she will also do anything to see her sister happy. And right now, that is smiling and pretending to be happy about the wedding.
A lot of drama unfolds as the story progresses. We slowly find out exactly what happened in these girls past, we meet their dad, their grandma, find out some pretty big family secrets....
While all this is happening we also get a glimpse of how great a guy Amy is marrying and a look at Katherine's past relationship. Her ex, the one she never told her sister about is in town and he wants to reconnect.
Although I really enjoyed this book it was more contemporary fiction than it was romance (and you guys know me by now, I almost only read romance and ya fantasy). So, it was a good book. A great book even! The way the relationship between the sisters was portrayed was great. It just wasn't what I usually read and because the romance was so overshadow by that I can't say that I loved it. There was almost no chemistry between the main female and male characters to speak off. This was a second chance romance with no spark...

4 1/2 STARS!
An emotionally raw depiction of life, love and happily ever afters! He saw her in a way no one else ever did ... but circumstances split them apart. Now reunited at a time that her life is in turmoil, Katherine has to dig deep and confront her past in order to have the brighter future she never even let herself dream about. The relationship between Kat and Amy is heartfelt and once Eamon comes onto the scene, the platform is laid for a very strong book. I really enjoyed their story and watching the past get laid to rest once and for all. Highly recommend!
Katherine Fuller has spent her life avoiding what she considers to be the kiss of death ... commitment, marriage, family. She adores her little sister Amy who she's extremely close to, but a traumatic childhood has her keeping everyone else at a distance. She's thrown for a loop when Amy announces she's getting married. She thought they both knew what destruction the sanctity of marriage could reap, but evidently Amy has blinders on. She'll do anything to keep her sister happy, so she guesses she'll be faking some enthusiasm!
Irish rockstar Eamon MacWard can't believe his eyes when he sees Katherine at his New York concert. For a few short months more than a decade ago, she was his, and he's never forgotten her. He can't let this moment of fate pass them by and insists she meet up with him to catch up. It doesn't take long for the passion of the past to reignite and lead them towards the reunion they'd given up hoping for, but getting closer to Eamon leads Katherine to have to confront the past she so adamantly wants to keep hidden. Will the secrets she reveals ruin the sunny girl that's just beginning to shine again?

I had high hopes for this one. I think the biggest issue I had with this book is that the romance between Eamon and Katherine was kind of hard to imagine. I think to make it more believable and swoony, there should’ve been some flashbacks. I just didn’t feel it at all.

This book was a new-to-me author and I have to say I would definitely read another. This stand-alone was a great read that pulls you in and gives you the feels. Oh the feels. I enjoyed every moment of this book
October 16, 2018
Another great book by Karen Booth! I loved how this book explored the relationship between the sisters. Highly recommend!

I have to be honest. I didn't think this book going to be for me. It started off slow and I did no think I was going to finish it. I was going to give up, but then I changed my mind. I am glad I did, because. although it is not my typical read, I liked it. It was more about family and relationships in families then romance, but that was ok. See, for me, we all have family stuff we deal with, And that is what makes us relatable.
I am glad I went outside my comfort zone and read this book. I ended up really liking it!

A wonderful story about the pieces of ourselves we hold back, and those we allow others to share. Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl focuses on the relationship between sisters and the secrets we keep in order to protect those we love.

This story rang all my bells - sisters, family, weddings, rock stars and romance!
I adore the loving alliance between sisters Katherine and Amy. The bonds forged as children - as they coped with the failed marriage of their parents - are tested as they're forced to face their past in order to move forward with their own relationships. The banter between these two is funny, heartwarming and authentic. I could totally relate to Katherine's need to always put Amy's happiness before her own. Their love is the heart and soul of this story!
Besides the tangled family dynamics, there's a second chance love story between Katherine and Irish musician Eamon Mac Ward. Ms Booth expertly crafts the impossible-to-imagine-rock-star-romance to feel grounded and oh so real.
Extra star for the gorgeous cover!!!

I am simply overwhelmed with feelings right now ... all the feelings.

I love it when a story pulls me in within the first few pages of Chapter 1 and Secrets definitely had my attention. Katherine is a bit jaded about marriage and when her sister announces she's getting married, she's got to suck it up and not let her own feelings about holy wedlock cloud Amy's wedding and preparations.
It doesn't hurt that a former boyfriend, now musician and performer is in town. When Amy takes Katherine to Eamon's concert, Katherine isn't sure what to expect. She does know one thing and that is Eamon was a shining moment in her life, and even though it was ten years ago, no one has come close to Eamon in Katherine's eyes.
Eamon wants a second chance to see if they really had it all ten years ago, and even though Katherine is nervous about what letting heart go might bring, she can't turn her back on this second chance.
I really loved this story. Katherine has some secrets that she's going to have to spill if she has any chance of making it work and that's really tough for her to do. That's the crux of the story that plays out during the preparations for her sister's wedding. Katherine has good reason to not want to put her heart out there, and Eamon is going to have to shatter all of her preconceived notions that all marriages fail.
I also really liked the story between Katherine and her sister Amy and the family secrets that have colored both of their lives. Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl really had it all for me -- a second chance romance and a tender resolution of past family hurts and secrets. I just loved it all. Definitely recommended.

Secrets of a (Somewhat) Sunny Girl
Karen Booth
There are a couple of books that I read every year that stand out in the crowd, this is one of them. This book was recommended to me by a friend. I had read many of Karen Booth’s Harlequin books, so I was familiar with this author’s writing. Well, I was thrown by this book. It is a second chance romance. I don’t read the end of a book to see what happens, I just hang on until the end, enjoying the anticipation. It took everything within me not to go to the end to find out what happens between the characters. It was worth the wait.
The Fuller family has had little luck with marriage and fidelity. When Katherine’s sister Amy gets engaged, she finds it difficult to be happy for her based on the track record of their family. As they plan the wedding, Amy gives Katherine tickets to see a popular musician, Eamon MacWade. Little does Amy realize, but Katherine knows Eamon from a relationship she had with him while she was a visiting college student in Ireland. When they go backstage, Eamon recognizes Katherine immediately. He makes arrangements to meet with her for coffee the next day. It is there that Eamon tells Katherine that he would like to start seeing her again, to see if the relationship can work this time. Katherine is hesitant, She is fearful of the past, so much so, that it is difficult for her to fully commit to the relationship. Eamon is patient throughout, trying to help and support Katherine because he lives her and believes in them. As the story progresses, we discover family secrets that impact on not only Amy’s future, but Katherine’s as well. These secrets could cause her to lose a sister and a second chance at love. I really enjoyed this story and recommend it to anyone looking for a story to tug at your heart strings.

Secrets of a somewhat Sunny Girl was not what I was thinking it would be… It had a much deeper look into the Sunny Girl.
Katherine and her sister Amy are still trying to recover from the brutal loss from their childhood. Amy’s upcoming wedding has thrust Katherine back into her childhood trauma, the last place she wanted to be or ever thought she would be. Along with the uncomfortable childhood memories, Katherine’s former love has re-entered her life. A whirl wind of an adventure, facing her fears from childhood, learning to let her heart fully love, repairing relationships once thought long gone. Katherine and Amy both reach their happily ever afters in Secrets of Sunny Girl.
Katherine and Eamon have a very different relationship that has faced many difficult battles, some self induced battles and some are secrets from their past that influence their future. I did enjoy the fiery romance between Katherine and Eamon, along with Katherines easy acceptance of his daughter. At points I was frustrated with Amy’s personality, however it is explained further in the book and makes it more understanding. The secondary character were perfectly done, they each added to the story and brought more life to the novel. The plot has many twists in it, it’s not a hard to follow book but does need an attentive reader. The Sunny girl does carry through, Katherine and Amy both start their happily-ever-afters at the end. I would recommend this book to those that like a little more raw emotion in their reading and a quirky family that loves deeply!

After reading this phenomenal book by Karen Booth, after wiping away the tears, I couldn't help but sit here and absorb everything that went on in this wonderful story. I was never so happy for a happily-ever-after as I was for Katherine's.
Childhood secrets, infidelity, self-depreciation … everything no child should go though. But with fierce determination and love for a sister that is never-ending, Katherine finds a way through it all. Yes, she is happy for Amy but her family's history with marriages is always in the back of her mind and, of course, the secret that could take everything away. She's determined that Amy will never find out. Now, thinking that she will never find love again, Eamon is back in her life. But, for how long this time? Well, that ball has been put in her court and she is going to have to decide if she is willing to take that chance on love or walk away from the one man who has held her heart from their first meeting in that Irish pub.
From beginning to end, Karen Booth had me totally entranced in the story and life of Katherine Fuller. From the childhood betrayal … to the confrontation with her grandmother, I was totally all-in with this story. I adored Eamon and the way he handled Katherine coming back into his life. I loved Fiona and I know that her heart is pure. But, most of all, I love that Karen Booth gave us an emotional and devout story about second-chance love, family ties and devotion.

5 stars! Sisters, a wedding , family secrets and an Irish hottie all in one book!
I very much enjoyed reading this story and seeing how secrets of a family and between sisters being brought out in the open paved a path for possibilities in love and new beginnings in life. Katherine’s sister Amy has just told her the one thing that she didn’t see coming —- she’s engaged to be married. Katherine musters up all the happiness she can but feels her sister has gone against their pact to never marry because marriage in their family seems doomed.
Katherine Fuller intends to put her best foot forward and keep her lips sealed to not rock the boat with Amy and hold their tight sisterly bond. Amy loves her big sister and sees an opportunity to surprise her with VIP tickets and passes to see someone from her past — Irish hottie Eamon MacWard. Katherine suddenly knows her past won’t stay quiet for long.
Eamon MacWard walked into the backstage area after his concert, and that’s when he saw her. Katherine. His Sunny Girl. After a decade apart he wonders if fate has brought her back into his life. And now he knows he must do whatever he can to keep her there this time. They both realize the chemistry is still there and leads them to develop that closeness once again. The closer they get, Katherine realizes she has to tell Eamon of the dark time from her past she never wanted to relive again and worries she isn’t the woman he needs as he once did.

Anyone who knows me knows that I have always rolled my eyes at the mention of a romance novel, but Karen Booth turned that around for me when she clarified that not all romance is steamy, cheesy sex scenes, it simply means a happily ever after, and don’t we all want that? At the end of a long work day I want nothing more than to fall into a good book and Karen Booth’s Secrets is A (Somewhat) Sunny Girl was that for me.
The characters are well rounded with just enough drama and family secrets to keep the story flowing, while the sisterly bond holds everything together, even if it’s falling apart. So much of this book is realistic and I loved every minute of it! As for the sister’s leading men, they are perfect; adding their own depth to help hammer out the story. Sure there was still the occasional swoon worthy steamy scene, but unlike other romance novels that I’ve taken a chance on, this book was so well written that it was more like a fade to black with just enough of a spark to leave some intrigue...and I can handle that.
All in all this book is easily 5 stars and I look forward to the next Karen Booth novel!

Katherine and Amy have weathered some pretty tough times together in their childhood, having seen the destruction of their parents' marriage and the aftermath following it. Katherine doesn't even believe marriage is for her, so when Amy gets engaged, Katherine has a hard time accepting it, thinking that she and Amy would be by each other's side for the rest of their lives. While Katherine is learning to cope with this new change, an old flame, Eamon, crosses paths with her again. Through Eamon, Katherine is re-learning what love and sacrifice really means. While I loved the relationship between Katherine and Eamon, I needed a bit more of a front row seat of their past to see what they had back then to fully understand what they were sharing in the present. I could understand Katherine in a lot of ways, her hesitation to trust others and to fully let them in, skeptical of finding true and lasting love, and always waiting for the other shoe to drop. While Eamon plays a big role in the story, it is more about Katherine's relationship with her sister and unfolding the events of the past that hold Katherine back so she can move forward with her life. There's a lot of things that happen, as well as piecing the puzzle of the past, that move the story at a good pace without it feeling like excess drama. There's an underlying theme that not all families are perfect, in fact most aren't, but family is still family, like it or not. I liked the note of where the book ended, but there were still some minor, lingering loose ends that I wouldn't have minded to have some sense of closure for.

such a perfect book!
Wonderful writing, great characters, terrific plot…this was a book I honestly, nearly DNF. But I’m a sucker for handsome Irish blokes who seem to fall in love forever. Eamon is just the perfect hero. And Katherine is the perfectly imperfect heroine. There is a very long background story here. (That is why I considered not completing this book.) But each & every piece of that background story is absolutely necessary to the whole of this angsty love story. In many ways, I truly believe that everyone can & will relate to many of the thought provoking details that lead to the finale. Sometimes it’s great fun to read a quick, slightly dirty romance. But if you want to really get the reason why romance and love are so important to us all, you must read this! And then go tell your special person that you love them! XO

Main characters: Katherine Fuller, committed singleton, who is about to have her life turned on its head. Eamon MacWard, an old flame who is keen to reconnect with Katherine.
Why you should read it: Karen Booth is a seriously talented writer. She gets into the heads of her characters and spins an intricate tale of family secrets and human frailty. I really empathised with Katherine’s character, who, more than anything, just wants to keep her family together. This story was a family tale more than anything, with a romance bubbling in the background. It was quite unusual that the crises in the book related to Katherine’s relationship with her sister, rather than with her old flame, Eamon. Eamon is pretty straightforward as characters go. He knows what he wants and he wants Katherine. It was quite refreshing that Katherine is the one to balk at the idea of committing to him, rather than vice-versa. At times I thought maybe Eamon was too good to be true, but it turns out he was just a good guy! They do exist!
Katherine and Eamon have strong chemistry and it’s palpable. Reading about their evolving relationship kept me engaged and invested in their journey.
What you may not like: One word: Amy. God I couldn’t stand this spoilt little brat! Oof she made me sooooo mad! She was self-absorbed, took her sister’s love for granted and basically made me want to smack her! She has her own journey to go on and she does evolve as a character. I thought Katherine was so strong, despite the rough deal she got. The adults in this book do some pretty shady stuff and poor Katherine bears the brunt of most of it.
Rating: 3/5 for an engaging, if somewhat tense tale of familial guilt, making peace with the past and love, in all its forms.

This book was an excellent story on family and how emotions can affect each other. I loved how Eamon was a strong man emotionally and wasn't weak with baggage that kept him from loving.
You can tell Karen worked her butt off to deliver this satisfying story as it flowed well.
I loved how karen made him a supporting hero in helping Katherine get through her baggage and deal with her relationships. He was sexy, he was romantic and most of all, he wasn't perfect, which he admitted to. And if you want a romance and a woman's fiction tied up in one, and hoping for a happy and sad cry, go buy this book!

I am pretty sure this is my first book by the author. I picked it up honestly because it was on sale and I buy all the books on sale. :)
I normally always read the excerpt and some reviews before I purchase any book but I decided to wing this one. It was 99cents.
The book was a good read. A second chance love story. I didn’t get to really click worth he characters like I like to do but it was still a good read. I didn’t immerse myself into it like others but I still read it and I finished it. It was sweet. Not a lot of drama or crazy just a love lost kinda story. A rekindled flame kind of romance.

My $ 14.99 investment in this GORGEOUS PRINT copy was WORTH every penny.., what a compelling story of second chance love that’s being told amongst one of the best sister romance stories I’ve read in a good while... so much family drama and heartache between the two sisters that you’re sure to be entertained and root for Katherine AND Amy to both find happiness & trust in love & family again! Irish Eamon was absolutely delightful in how he handles Katherine with such care ... plenty of sexy , passion . Angst along with a good dose of family stuff to keep your attention ! Another wonderful piece of work by Karen that will stay with me ..❤️
