![]() ![]() Does this in any way detract from the story? Nope, not for this girl it didn’t. ![]() Essentially, this is the strength of the novella and also a minor detriment because the ARC text wraps up the “who” and “why” of Brielle before it seems like the larger plot elements in the story reasons could be grasped. There’s a nice quality to the flow of the storytelling because of this and because of the heroine, there is definitely a mysterious bent to what is to come. ![]() Right off, Amber has created a mystery that leaves readers flipping the pages and was something I really enjoyed. Without dillydallying – I understand the reason for this being its limited pages, the story immediately gets into the heart of what is coming as our already confused (being dissatisfied with the direction his life is going) hero, Derrick happens upon the mysterious figure of Brielle, a girl no one seems to know. Amber Stokes took us on a journey to the old west with her sweet prairie romances in the Hearts Spring series and has now broken from that pattern to charm us with a new adult novella that is nothing if not sweetly romantic. Review: When you’ve admired and eventually counted as a friend bloggers who have dreamt of entering the publishing world by putting out their own novels, it’s a joy to watch them realize that dream – and be a shining example of excellence in the all-to-often brushed aside Indie world of publishing. Genre: Fiction New Adult Contemporary (novella) ![]()
