Lexi Blake - Pure Bliss review

 
 

Re-released in a second edition with new content. The town of Bliss, Colorado, offered Hope McLean a second chance at life, a gift she cherishes every day. Her past was dominated by dark secrets and regret, most of which centered on a man named Christian Grady. All of that was behind her now, years of horror distilled down into the occasional nightmare or a random feeling of being watched. Surrounded by new friends, she tried hard to leave the past where it belonged—in the rearview mirror. Raised together, James Glen and Noah Bennett were the best of friends. They dreamed of growing up in Bliss, finding love, and settling down to share their lives on the Circle G ranch. James would manage the day-to-day operations of the ranch while Noah served the town as the resident veterinarian. Everything was perfectly planned out, until a woman came between them and their future shattered. Noah left Bliss for New York City and James was left to struggle to keep the Circle G alive on his own. Noah returns to Bliss on a mission to rebuild his life. When he sees Hope, he knows his return home was meant to be. Hope’s kindness shines like a beacon calling him to her. Unfortunately, he isn’t the only man interested in Hope. James is also interested in the beautiful girl with a mysterious past. He can’t be forced to choose between the woman of his dreams and his best friend again. As romance begins to bloom, a dark specter from Hope’s past returns to claim her. To save Hope, and themselves, James and Noah will have to rebuild the relationship they lost and fight for their future with Hope together.

MY REVIEW

I love getting lost in Lexi's stories and getting more of Bliss, Colorado. This time we're in James' and Noah's lives. These two brothers haven't seen or spoken to each other much in years and now Noah has returned home, hoping to fix what was wrong in his life. His brother doesn't make things easy for him though. One thing they both can agree on? Protecting and cherishing Hope. I enjoyed the way  Hope was alerted of danger, even though she didn't think she saw what she saw and yet lets the reader know it's the start as to what is going on. I liked how Lexi gave us bits of information either through Hope thinking of her past or the reader seeing what was happening in the now, even though we weren't given all the pieces yet. I like how we know there is danger, but we don't know WHY or HOW.... The relationship between Hope, James and Noah was sweet, passionate, caring and everything Hope deserved. I recommend this read and I'm looking forward to Chasing Bliss next!
