Series: Mended Hearts #2

Author: Patricia Lee

Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink

Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance

Can a hurting boy help two broken people find their way back to love?

Lissa Frye returns home from the Navy hoping to find a different future—one which includes a husband, marriage, and a family until news from her sister impacts Lissa’s personal life and derails her plans.

Kurt McKintrick, having lost his best friend to an IED in Afghanistan, has returned to help the man’s mother run a horse rescue ranch. Images of war plague him, and thoughts of anyone else he might love falling victim to an untimely end, distance him from the person most likely to help.

Eleven-year-old Jayden Clarke seeks to fill the ache in his heart from his father’s death two years before. But his life is turned upside down when the rancher who befriended him is found dead, the horses neglected, and the dog missing. When authorities arrive to investigate, Lissa and Kurt, estranged after a former relationship, are forced to meet again. Lissa must confront images from her past and Kurt struggles to live with his present truth.

Will Jayden be the catalyst that draws Lissa and Kurt back together for a happily ever after?

My Thoughts on Love Calls Her Home:

This is the second book in the Mended Hearts series.  The books do not have to be read in order though.  It is not a series that follows the same characters but rather a central theme of loss and healing.

In this book, we find tough topics just like in book one.  For book one we mainly focused on autism.  Book two switches the focus to abuse and PTSD or what soldiers face coming home from war.

I really enjoyed this book as well as the first one in the series.  They are well written and the characters dragging you in, begging to be heard and known.  This book focuses on three characters. 

Rescue animals!  I love books that bring out how animals can be used to help heal.  Rescue animals and healing is something I definitely believe in and back.  Not only do you rescue and heal the animals, but you also help to heal the people who heal the animals.  It’s a double win situation and such a good thing to do.

I recommend this book and the entire series.  Do note that this book involves a young boy who has had some severe abuse which makes him older than his years.  Also could be a trigger to anyone who has suffered abuse both as an adult or as a child.  Just wanted that to be known and clear.

I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from JustRead Publicity Tours. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.  I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way.  All opinions expressed are my own.  I am disclosing this in accordance with the FTC regulations.
