Saving Hanna by A.L. Long

Saving Hanna

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Saving Hanna is a short and sweet novella by A.L. Long. It is a wonderful love story between Hanna who had lived her entire life on her farm until she was forced to move away and Aiden, a greedy and powerful millionaire.

Hanna was a true farm girl until she was forced to move away because of the consequences of her brother, Carter’s greed. after which she started working at a diner to support herself and to save her farm. Aiden was a true businessman down to his roots who bought the farm and wanted to buy the diner. He visited the diner regularly as a result of which he met Hanna for the first time.

Aiden was sweet, protective and had a good head on his shoulders. I felt like he was a good contrast to Hanna’s gentle nature. There were times I felt Hanna was being childish and impulsive like running away multiple times without telling Aiden and not giving him a chance to explain but otherwise I loved Hanna’s strength and loyalty.

Aiden saved Hanna both literally and figuratively so I believe the title is apt for the book. I felt that Hanna and Carter’s relationship could have been explored a little better. Also, I felt that there were things that were never revealed in the book like Hanna never really got a clear answer of how Aiden and Carter knew each other. I liked the fact that Aiden’s father came through at the time of need regardless of his previous behavior. Albert was a good supporting character and a few more scenes with him would have been enjoyable.

All in all, it was a nice book and was a refreshing change.

The Elusive Sun by Rebecca Hefner

My rating:  5 of 5 stars The Elusive Sun far surpassed my expectations. If you liked The End of Hatred then you will absolutely love The Elusive Sun. A big congratulations to Rebecca Hefner for writing yet another enthralling novel. The Elusive Sun is the story of Latimus, Sathan’s brother and the vampyre army’s commander and Lila, the sweet aristocrat who will definitely win your heart. I was so excited for their story ever since I first came across the two characters in The End of Hatred and I must say it was worth the wait. I think I liked Latimus even more than Sathan. Even though he was mean before, his transition after what happened to Lila amazed me. He was strong, sweet and so romantic in his efforts to court Lila that it made me swoon. But, at the same time he was a warrior at heart. Lila was kind, resilient and her true strength was highlighted after she suffered a major tragedy. I loved how Latimus was always there for Lila and vice versa even when they did their best ...

The Darkness Within by Rebecca Hefner

My rating:  5 of 5 stars The titles of all of Rebecca’s books have always been very symbolic and this one doesn’t disappoint either. The Darkness Within kept me engrossed since the beginning. We first met Darkrip and Arderin in The End of Hatred and since then their respective stories have always been at the back of my mind, no matter what I was reading at the time.   Darkrip was so tortured because of his past actions and because of who his father was and felt that he wasn’t worthy of love. Nothing could be farther from the truth. He used his rudeness towards Arderin as a defense mechanism whenever he felt things he shouldn’t (according to him) towards her. But, Arderin never let him get away with it and that was one of the most admirable thing about her character. She kept him on his toes and fought for him with her everything. There were times when Darkrip crossed the line in making her hate him but Arderin never gave up.   Darkrip’s transformation from befor...

Securing Brenae by Susan Stoker

My rating:  5 of 5 stars Securing Brenae is Rear Admiral Dag Creasy and Brenae Creasy’s story. We first met Dag in Securing Caite and even though he played a small part in that book, it intrigued me enough to want his own story and Susan Stoker definitely did not disappoint. This book is different from others written by Susan Stoker because it focuses on a couple that has already been married for 30 years and how despite of all odds and hardships they still love each other as much as they did when they first met if not more. Dag and Brenae first met when Dag was a student in the Naval Academy and Brenae was a waitress. I loved how confident and honest Dag was since the beginning. He was strong and he radiated power without pulling his rank. The thing that I loved about him was that even though he was so strong and responsible, he didn’t hesitate from being vulnerable in front of Brenae. Brenae was the perfect partner for Dag. She was smart, supportive and understanding and never ...
