Reading the prologue to this story I was wondering if the hero and heroine would ever be able to reconcile and find their way to a Happily Ever After. It took 16 years and some drawings by a patient in an institution to bring them together again. Once they met again the sparks were still there if they could forgive themselves and each other.
I've never read a book by the team of May McGoldrick but I look forward to reading more of their books in the future.
I received a free advanced copy of this book. ( )

It Happened in the Highlands by May McGoldrick
The Pennington Family #2

Engaged from the beginning I could not put this book down! It made me think and care and invest in the characters hoping they would manage to find a way to the HEA they so richly deserved.

Definitely a second chance at romance love story but with sixteen years apart both Jo and Wynne are different people than they once were and better, in many ways, for their years apart. Both have grown and developed into more interesting, complex and stronger people than they may have had they married years before.

I enjoyed reading this book not only for the romance but for the mystery of finding out what Jo’s background was. I enjoyed the growth of Wynne as he got to know his son better. I found the relationship between Wynne and Jo believable and now want to find out what will happen in the next two books of the series and can’t wait till they are released!

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press - Swerve for the ARC – This is my honest review.

A warm historical romance that smartly incorporates a couple of social issues. It's well-written, thought-provoking, and has a happier ending than most. The lighthearted romance is of the second-chance variety that includes the families, not just the MCs, and it complements the serious themes quite well. This book is the second novel in a series, but can be read as a stand-alone. The female lead is a passionate and caring woman searching for her past and the leading man is a protective and intelligent gentleman who helps her find her future. The scenery is beautifully described and historical facts are interwoven into the story. A good book for a rainy day. I look forward to the next installment. For historical romance fans.

I haven't read the previous book in the series or anything else by the authors but I definitely didn't feel lost while reading this book. The main characters Jo and Wynn were likeable and interesting to follow. The first half of this was really interesting to me and I feel like I read it really fast. After the secrets behind Jo's real parents were revealed I felt like the book kind of dragged on. I would definitely be interested in reading more of this series.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the galley. ( )
