I was swept right back to Deep Haven and caught up with many of the Christiansen family. It was so fun to read this book as it felt like going home and visiting old friends. There are so many things I enjoyed with this story. Cole is very helpful to Megan and her son, even as he wants to get the home sold. He is also able to forgive his grandfather for the way he was treated. I enjoyed reading this story that showed the importance of having faith without getting preachy. “I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author.

Cole and Megan both carry burdens from their pasts. They both have made mistakes and those affect many areas of their present lives. And that’s what makes so relatable. They’re human, flawed, and desire love and acceptance and the road they travel is a bumpy one filled with plenty of potholes and detours. Still the One is a story of love, forgiveness, healing, and second chances that had me rooting for Megan and Cole from the start. Plus, there’s plenty of sizzle in there too. Russell is definitely an author to keep an eye on. Disclosure statement: I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book and was not required to write a positive review.

(  ) Suzie27 | Jan 22, 2021 | Still the One is the story of Cole Barrett coming back to Deep Haven, his childhood home, with an agenda: get his grandfather's house sold as soon as possible so that he can begin a new life with a new job as a Deputy US Marshall in DC. What he didn't bargain for was running into his childhood friend, Megan Carter. From the moment Cole and Megan meet again you can feel the attraction between these two. Megan's character is completely relatable, being a single mom running a wedding planning business, and trying to hold everything together for her and her son, Josh. The character flaws in both Cole and Megan are true to life and poetically beautiful. My favorite moments of the story were seeing Cole, Megan, and Josh interacting as a family. I loved the small town feel and the concept of friends falling in love has always been one of my favorite troupes. Still the One is a cozy, small town Christian romance that envelops you, making you feel like you're there witnessing the events of Deep Haven for yourself. It is well written and I seemed to devour it quite quickly. This is my first time reading anything from the Deep Haven collection, but I must admit I am hooked, and plan on reading more from this incredibly sweet, yet down-t0-earth series. *I have voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book which I received from the author/publisher through JustRead Tours.

( ) cflores0420 | Jan 21, 2021 | I enjoyed reading Still the One and stayed interested throughout the story despite some plot points feeling formulaic and predictable. The second-chance romance was clean and included a relaxed level of tension (not the I-can’t-put-it-down kind). I could relate to both Cole’s wrestling with unforgiveness and Megan’s struggle to trust God with situations. Still the One is a solid debut novel by Rachel D. Russell that fuses romance, spiritual issues, and life situations into a story that points to the God who can redeem all things. Readers who have enjoyed Susan May Warren’s prior Deep Haven novels will likely enjoy Still the One by Rachel D. Russell and Susan May Warren.

Recently divorced, single, and unattached, Cole just wants a new life as a US Marshal. One where he can forget the past and start new. Unfortunately, there's a tenant in the garage apartment who's refusing to move. Even worse? It's his childhood crush, Megan Carter, and her son. She's waited years for her first love to return. Wedding planner and single mom Megan Carter is no stranger to Deep Haven. To her, it's the place where she makes dreams come true??at least, everyone else's. Her big dream is to purchase the Black Spruce Bed & Breakfast to turn it into a premier event venue and, if she can stay booked for enough weddings over winter, she'll have enough money to buy the inn, move out of Grandpa Barrett's garage apartment, and finally give her nine-year-old son, Josh, the life he deserves. After using part of her intended down payment to cover his hockey fees, she's behind on her Black Spruce funds and only has thirty days to come up with four thousand dollars. Still, she's oh, so close...until her childhood friend-slash-crush, Cole Barrett, returns to Deep Haven. Unfortunately, he's not back to fulfill a silly childhood promise to marry her, but she never expected him to evict her! The last thing she needs is more expenses. Or for another man to walk into her heart...and break it. Maybe it's never to late to finish a love story... When a blizzard strikes Deep Haven, and Megan is overrun with wedding catastrophes, it takes a former Ranger to step in and help. But the more he comes to her rescue, the sooner she'll be able to move out...and he can move on. And that's what they both want, right? Return to Deep Haven with this magical tale about the one who got away...and came back. About the Authors: No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Still the One is the kind of book one cannot help relating to since there is such hope, faith, and love in the pages of a novel that grips your heart and refuses to let go.
As I haven't read any Deep Haven books (YET!) I was somewhat lost when it came to some things and characters that you were supposed to know things about, but it did not take away from my enjoyment of the story. The fact that Cole is a veteran was no small pull in my want to read this story, and I loved finally getting to meet him, Megan, Josh, and the others.
The wedding planning, my goodness, can I be a wedding planner, pretty please?! I loved every detail, it was just so cool to read about weddings being plan amidst a romance of the characters' own.
The conflict was done in such a way that I did shake my head but I didn't want to hunt the character down to make them see what was going on … I loved seeing what happened with Cole, his past, and healing from the mistakes of his family.
Since this is a romance, it is not for everyone however those who enjoy small-town romance, family ties, and hope in their literary indulgences will find this a need to read.
I voluntarily received and reviewed a complimentary e/copy of this book which I received from the author/publisher. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
