Publisher's summary

If you like Jill Shalvis and Kristin Hannah, you’ll love Jennifer Ryan’s exciting new novel, where a young woman has the chance to rebuild her life and become the woman she was always meant to be....

An inheritance she never expected...

After serving time for a crime she didn’t commit, Evangeline returns home to discover her father left her solely responsible for the family’s failing ranch, her mother blames her for her father’s death, and her brothers want her out of their way. With her family’s future squarely on her shoulders, she desperately searches for ways to save their home - before they lose everything.

A chance to right past mistakes...

Her only ally: Chris Chambers. The cop who sent her away is positive she took the fall for someone else. And if she helps him track down the real criminals, he’ll clear her record. But the closer Evangeline and Chris get to exposing the truth - and to each other - the deeper Evangeline is drawn into a dangerous sting that will finally bring her justice and pave the way for a bright future.

All emotions Experienced

I cried through the first few chapters, stopped crying through many, and smiled through the rest. The story was a tad predictable but so well written I didn’t mind. I was sorry to have the novel end; I look forward to more novels by Jennifer Ryan read by Brittany Presley!

Refreshing new story nothing I’ve read before and couldn’t stop!

My favorite narrator Brittany Presley influenced this purchase. I couldn’t stop! Plot twists, mystery, action, deception, romance!! Jennifer Ryan includes it all. I will be looking into more books by Jennifer Ryan and hopefully they are all just as entertaining! This book could be a movie!! Love it! Highly recommended. I am putting it on the read list for my book club.

This kept me listening almost nonstop

I thoroughly loved this book and the narration was amazing. I was in awe of the heroine who really walked the walk and not just the talk. She exemplified true Christianity as it was intended rather than as it can often be exploited. This is the second book by this author that I have listened to and it definitely won’t be the last. It felt real and with some of the subject matter that is very sad. It’s obviously fiction, but some people act a lot like many of the characters in the book. Here’s to more Evangelines in real life. 5 stars

Run girl! Too perfect.

The idea of the story line was good. There could been some guts to the story, but turns out it was sappy and overly perfect. I found myself making fun of it pretty often. And can I just say, RUN away from Chris girl!! He's a piece of work!

meh

Turned into too much of a love story for my taste. There's a subtle way to fold that into stories without it taking over. "Sweetheart" was used beyond a normal amount of times. Just had to skip the last 45 minutes and be done with it.
