Description

From bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels comes a crossover small-town, second-chance romance series that welcomes readers back into the world of McCullough Mountain!

Ryan Clooney moved to the outskirts of his small town, and the last thing he expected to find was love, but when he meets Maggie, the beautiful young widow next door, his plans change.

Maggie O'Malley is not looking for romance. Since losing her husband, she's withdrawn from her social life and prefers to be left alone. But her new neighbor doesn't understand personal space, and the more he intrudes on her solitary world, the less control she has over her heart.

Determined to charm Maggie, Ryan pulls out all the stops. Will Maggie choose to let go of her past to have a future, or is there another way to move on?

    Excellent read!! I swear, I practically cried throughout the first two-thirds of the book! This authors description of the emotional pain following abandonment and loss was exquisite. I felt it…grieved it…from past experience and then and also felt the healing from the characters.

    I only rated this 4 stars because I listened to the book on audio and didn’t care much for the narration. I hated what Maggie had to face at such a young age, but it goes to show you that once you start reflecting back on that young, first love, that it might not have been as great as you thought it was. She loved Nash with her whole heart, but learning about Nash through her memories showed that a he may have had other dreams. I loved how Ryan tried to be patient with her, how he tried his best to help her, but she would always push him away. Don’t get me wrong, she knew she had feelings for Ryan, but she was afraid that she would forget Nash. All it takes for her to open her eyes to what she has, is discovering her sisters cheating fiancé. Really liked the idea behind this book and look forward to reading more from this author.

    This story was beautiful. I was overwhelmed by the feelings of los and helplessness. This was definitely a tear jerker. I loved the happy ending.

    This second chance book was absolutely great! I felt as if I were her losing my first love/love of my life. I loved watching Maggie come out of this great depression and finding happiness again. Heck, even finding the smallest bit of joy again. As someone who has been with her first love for 17 years now I can only imagine what it would feel like. Bring in Ryan, who I completely fell head over heels for right along with Maggie. Man, that man had me swooning without even trying. He had his own pain that I loved watch be broken. The narrator did really well with making me feel the different characters even reading the male roles. I most definitely can’t wait to read more about the people in this town. I received this audio book in hopes of an honest review. I wrote this willingly and are my true opinion of this book :-)

    Lydia Michaels has proven that she can write any type of romance. Wake My Heart is heart-wrenching portrayal of life after you lose your soul mate. The characters and the world this author has created are incredibly vivid and realized. The romance was executed perfectly and leaves you wanting to dive further into this world. Grab your tissues...cause even though this will make you cry, Michaels delivers on a heartwarming HEA.
