Not Alone
Runaway Love
How To Save A Life
Unconditionally
Emmalynne Morgan thought that getting married to her High School sweetheart and starting a family was all she wanted in life. Everything was perfect until circumstances change and devastating blows occur.
Fast forward five years, Emmalynne thinks she is broken, not only emotionally but physically as well, so her confidence was severely lacking. Being a single mother to her son, Tucker, as well as an owner of a small town Bookstore, she does everything she can to keep men at arms-length, not thinking she is worthy anymore with her plus-sized body and scars.
Taking it upon themselves, Emmalynne's best friends, Toby and Tessa make it their mission to bring her out of her tight-knitted comfort zone. That is when she locks eyes on the male perfection that is Grady.
Grady Finnegan was the gorgeous new guy in town. Recently injured and discharged from the Army, Grady comes to his Uncle’s aid in helping manage the family bar. Not being anywhere near innocent when it comes to women, Grady meets Emmalynne and he knows one thing, that he wants her.
Sparks fly and passion ignites, but will that be enough? Not ready to lay her heart on the line, Emmalynne guards it as best she can and ultimately fails. When chaos erupts and Grady's past comes back to haunt him, it leaves Emmalynne's already broken heart, shattered.
Will past circumstances prevent Emmalynne from having the future she deserves? Or can Grady help her follow her heart and show her that she is Not Alone.
Review:
Not Alone is an amazing read, I absolutely loved the main characters Emmalynne and Grady both with great stories to tell. Emmalynne is a witty, stubborn and strong single mother who refuses to give up no matter what challenges she faces, widow of a verbally abusive husband she does however have some insecurities. Grady is the perfect match for her, he loves all of her insecurities and turns them from weaknesses to strengths, giving Emmalynne the confidence to trust and love again.
There were so many times when I was reading this book that I could not help laughing out loud, earning me some strange looks from people in the same room, but it was just impossible not to smile at the comments and witty banter through out Not Alone. As well as being full of funny moments, there were also moments that made me angry and tearful, it's the type of story where you really want the main character to get their happy ever after. A great debut novel from Amber Nation, I look forward to reading more of her work. :) 5/5 <3 's
