Resumen del Editor

I never thought I’d find her.

After eight years in the marines, I’m still looking for the mysterious woman I’ve obsessed over since her first letter. When she shows up in my small town, I’m thrilled.

But when she turns out to be my brother’s best friend--and the girl he’s always loved--I’m caught between the two people who matter to me the most.

I’m a marine, which means honor and duty run deep. Joanna is off-limits. That would be a whole lot easier if she hadn’t already agreed to help run my brother’s fishing guide business for the summer, forcing me to work side-by-side with the woman I’ve fantasized about for years. I try to keep her at a distance, push her away, and man up. But she draws me in without even trying, and I can’t get enough of how she makes me feel. I’m stealing moments with her, and I know it’s wrong. She may not be my brother’s girlfriend, but I know a landmine when I see one.

Author's note: Finding You is a scorching hot interconnected stand-alone small-town romance. It is not a love triangle. Finding You is the first book in the Chikalu Falls series set in the fictional Montana town, Chikalu Falls.

Small Town Romance

This is everything I want from a small-town romance. A smart and strong female main character with a bit of vulnerability. A slightly broken but protective and possessive male lead. Fun side characters that really bring the town to life. I just loved it.
Joanna is a determined woman working in a predominantly man's field. Lincoln is an ex-marine who is finding his place in his hometown.
The way they "meet" is so sweet and moving that you are rooting for them before they've ever even been in the same room together.
I really loved the contrast between the two pairs of siblings' relationships. Lincoln and Finn are getting to know each other again after so many years apart. These brothers, while having a lot in common, are still finding their comfort zone with each other. Meanwhile Joanna and Honey are complete opposites, but their sister bond is strong as steel. Very different relationships but you could feel the love and affection in both.
I can't say enough about what a fantastic job Stephen Dexter and Charlotte North did in narrating this audiobook. A perfect casting job.
This book was a great read with a good amount of spice and just a touch of angst. If you like small-town romance you will enjoy this as much as I did.

Fantastic!

I just finished this audiobook, and let me tell you, it is eargasmic! The Narrators do such an amazing job! It has a fantastic story. I seriously loved everything about it! The storyline is engrossing, the characters are amazing, and the writing is wonderful! I highly recommend it and I cannot wait for more stories from this incredible writer!

So romantic

I love this love story! The pull between these two characters was delicious. The spice was excellent too 💖

Small Town, Big Crush on Lincoln

This was my first book by Lena Hendrix and I absolutely loved it. I loved the progression of the story and how we saw the past and how it was effecting Lincoln and Joanna. I loved the little glances into the letters and the connection they had.

I don’t normally gravitate toward Military romance but this one was just fantastic. It was light and fun, but did have the seriousness of PTSD and what Lincoln was going through after returning from war and trying to find low.

The performances were also just fantastic! definitely recommend this audio!!

I really liked it

I am not a huge book critic, if it has some kind of romance I’m here to listen to it. The voices are perfect for this performance. I really liked the story line too. It had some good romance moments in it. I can’t wait for book 2 to come out.

So good!!!

Holy smokes did I enjoy this book!! It was SO GOOD! I listened to this one audio and what a great decision that was. The narrators were amazing, they told the story perfectly.

I fell in love with Lincoln, with his and Joanna’s story. This book gave me all the feels. I smiled, I teared up, and I swooned. Oh and the spice… SO GOOD 😮‍💨

Finding You is ex-military, brothers best friend, small town perfection and I definitely recommend you read this one.

A good small-town romance with some nice spice.

Well, I do love an unconventional heroine and Joanna is definitely one. She’s a fly-fishing guide and throughout the book we see her grow in confidence. She also has curves and is proud of them. I love a good broken hero and Lincoln is a wee bit cracked. A returning marine suffering from nightmares with a fierce protective streak, yes please and thank you.

This is a good small-town romance with interesting side characters (I loved Joanna’s sister, Honey). Lena writes some delicious spice to go with this slightly feely romance. Yup, peeping in the showers never felt so gooooooood!

Charlotte is a new narrator to me, and I enjoyed her performance. She showed us the growth in Joanna and her inner strength. I’ve listened to a few titles by Stephen before and once again he did a good job with Lincoln. We definitely get those alpha protective vibes from him.

I did like that once the third act conflict happened they didn’t just kiss and make up straight away there was longing and work to be done first. This is a story of secret pen pals to lovers, a unique theme for sure.

If you are looking for a small-town romance with feels and some nice spice, look no further.

Loved this story!

4.5 ⭐️ 3 🌶️

Marine vet, Lincoln, received letters from a mysterious girl named, Joanna, during his time serving his country. He later learned the woman sending these letters was his brother’s best friend and off-limits. Lincoln has a hard time staying away…

This was my first Lena Hendrix book and it DELIVERED. With issues of war this could have been a dark book but it was wonderfully light & really well written! Joanna was a very different FMC and I really liked her! The spice was 👩🏼‍🍳 💋! This will not be my last Lena Hendrix & I’m excited to dive into more of her stories !

The audio was the way to go if you’re gonna read this story. Both narrations did such an amazing job!

When’s the movie??

Just finished and started this book today and damn was it good!! It may be a bit of a cliche story line but it’ll envelop you into the story and the arms of lincoln.

A good romance read

I enjoyed the story. A damaged veteran, and a jilted girl. Things in common, she wrote letters to him while he was deployed and they bonded. Filled with angst and healing.
