Ah, love… It never fails to endure and in this book it simply did, again and again and again!
This was the sweet and satisfying conclusion to Book 1, Indecision, in Evelyn Montgomery’s Kismet series. It picked up right where Indecision left off.
Noah, upon hearing Eve and Gwen talking on his way into the hospital room, is devastated to know that Eve’s feelings for him are unrequited. He leaves in a mad dash to escape both his breaking heart and to run from the stain his past has marked him with, no matter the attempts to break away from it.
Eve is left alone to recover without the man she loves, not understanding that he had even attempted to come see her at the hospital let alone misinterpreted her words. She’s left with nothing but a note of encouragement as Noah heads home to Kentucky, freeing her to live the life she’s always dreamed...without him. But being without him, even if that’s what he seems to want, is killing her.
Gwen is the one to suggest they go to Kentucky after him as she has an idea of why he might have hightailed it out of Dodge.
What follows is beautiful scenery, a makeup made in Heaven, and the beginning of a new life for Evelyn Monroe as she finally stops to smell the literal roses and embraces where her life is taking her.
But just as Noah and Evelyn’s fate seems to have ultimately turned around and their paths are headed where they were destined to go, that awful past Noah thought was behind him has just threw a major sucker punch to his gut and that happily ever after he was hoping for with the beautiful woman of his dreams may never be.
A determined woman, a broken man torn by heartbreak, and a devotion so strong it can withstand miles and months and leagues apart. That is what you’ll find in this beautifully written story of Evelyn Montgomery’s. We should all be lucky enough to meet a man like Noah Stewart with his southern charm and big heart, to be a woman with the backbone, strength, and spirit of Evelyn Monroe, and to have a relentless fortified love that bonds these two lovers to each other forever.
