Snowflakes over the Second Chances Sweet Shop by Hannah Lynn #Review #TheHollyBerrySweetShopSeriesBook7

 

Hannah Lynn's The Second Chances Sweet Shop series continues with Book 7, Snowflakes over the Second Chances Sweet Shop. It was published by Boldwood Books pn September 1st.


It’ll be a Christmas to remember …

Holly Berry is finally in a place where she can see her happy ending: a beautiful daughter, who's growing ever sweeter by the day, a new home she can make her own, and – of course – her partner-in-crime, Evan.

But when tragedy strikes, Holly’s life is thrown into turmoil. And, perhaps in denial, she decides to cancel all of her Christmas plans in favour of some healing of her own.

She thinks spending time with Evan’s family will help, but it’s her own family she needs to be with right now. Luckily, they know this, and follow her out to the States to join her in her alternate holiday plans.

They say that time heals all wounds, and with her loved ones around her, can she hope for a brighter tomorrow…?

A heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting story about friends, family and true love lasting forever, from the bestselling author of the Wildflower Lock series


 My Thoughts

If you are expecting a happy story with this latest in the series, you will find that this is a much more emotional and heartbreaking story. Holly Berry finds that life is never going to be the same after a tragic event but you see how her friends and family rally around her to help her through. This is not a downbeat story but instead celebrates happiness and looking out for each other.

    Much of the story takes place away from Holly's Sweet Shop and home town. However, she still appreciates the stability and focus it gives her. There are some surprising characters created in this tale but they are all part of Holly's coming to terms with life and finding out the true meaning of family. 

In short: Can hearts be mended?
