I am just going to say this straight out. No holding back; no playing games. This book is "Oh My Goodness" HOT!!! I love Nicole. I love Nicole's writing. But honestly, I think I love Joe and Marti more now.
That sweet disillusioned Martha...only she would think
that relocating with her husband to a new location would "fix" their
marriage...her miscarriage...his cheating heart. What I can't figure out is why
she would even want it fixed! I think it's awesome that she googles just what
she is looking for...HOPE. This search for HOPE brings her to New Hope, SC.
I've gotta say, there is just something about the South that can mend a broken
spirit and soothe a troubled soul.
And then there is Joe. He is such a slut, such a womanizer, such a fan of the one night stand. He is also very broken...incomplete...maybe a little bitter. Joe is a contractor. He makes his living repairing houses. When he meets Martha, they hit it right off they clash like the Titans. (I just wanted them to hit it off right away!)
Those two bicker and fuss like 6 year old sisters with only one Barbie to share between them. But there is just something there that draws them back to each other. It was fun watching the town try to keep these two apart. It was entertaining to see Joe's senile neighbor mistake a bonfire for a house fire. I bet that water was cold!
This book started off with that tug on me and would not let go even at the very end. Oh, I still have questions, but I know that there are more answers waiting for me in the second installment of the New Hope series
