3.5 Heart Review by Ashley

Excuse me while I catch my breath after finishing Some Regrets are Forever. This was my very first book from Jane Blythe and it was equal parts suspenseful, gruesome and empowering.

I really liked Meadow. She was so strong and brave and resilient. Even on the run for her life and not sure where to turn or who to trust, she never counted herself down. And when she stumbled her way into Rivers End, she had no clue what she would find but she was determined to make the most of it. Enter Abe Black. I adored this gentle yet protective man. His relationship with his family. His dedication to his town. The way he opened up his home and heart to Meadow. Shared his painful past and the moments that still haunt him with her.

She brought out all of his protective instincts and as the danger around her grew closer and more sinister it was all he could do to try and stay one step ahead of a madman. But somehow, the danger kept finding her. I knew it was coming, it was inevitable but my heart was still pounding as those tense moments played out.

I will say that I found a few parts of the story repeated themselves but it wasn't enough to detract from the overall feel of things. Meadow and Abe's whirlwind romance was full of danger and feelings. And that ending! JUST YES! I am looking forward to seeing what Jane Blythe has in store for the small town of River's End next.
