Trusting no one only his twin brother Max , Knox’s life is about to get a little bit crazy as his closed off heart beats into life when his eyes lock on the most beautiful girl he has ever seen.

Scarring their hearts one more time.


Scarred Hearts (Blackrock) | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads

 

Bailey Mortenson decides to take a change of pace and get away from Grove and all the tragedy that has occurred.  She decides to move in with her dad for the summer in Blackrock.  Little does she know, Tall Dark & Handsome is right around the corner every time she turns around.

Knox Porter is TDH, guitar player and singer in a local bar, George’s, where he also bartends when he is not playing on stage.  Knox’s twin, Max is the first of the two to spot Bailey and tell Knox, I just spotted your future wife.  “See something you like Darlin?” is what lured in Bailey to finally approach Knox, and I’m so glad that she did. 

The truth to the story of Summer and what happened in Grove will absolutely break your heart.  I was crying just reliving what Summer and Bailey went through.  Not looking for love when coming to Blackrock, Bailey finds Knox.  But will they be able to be together by getting over their scarred hearts from their grief stricken past? 

I gave this novel 5 stars.  I loved it and it had be intrigued all the way through.  I found myself at one point stopping, not sure if I was able to endure what was to come.  I’m so glad I sucked it up and finished it out.  This book was awesome and I highly recommend it and continuation of the series as well.  




What do you do when the girl you love stops breathing in your arms?

When life kicks you while you are down? 

You get up and fight, fight like hell!

After struggling to put their pasts behind them and take a chance on each other, Knox and Bailey begin to move forward in their relationship.

But the past always has a way of catching up with you…….

On a trip back home to Grove for spring break, that’s just what happens to Bailey. Her past catches up with her, the sender of the dead roses reveals himself while making good on his threats. Sending Knox Porter into a place he never thought to be again…sitting in a graveyard, this time with the still body of the love of his life in his arms.

Join Bailey, Knox, Max and Paige as their lives evolve and change through out this book. Each dealing with their own difficulties and each finding solutions that will, either bring them closer together or tear them apart.


Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads

This is book 2 of the Blackrock Series, and you must read Scarred Hearts to understand.  So, if you have not, read book 1 first!!  This book picks up exactly where book 1 finished.  I gave this book 5 stars as well.  Bailey & Knox stole my heart in book 1 and I’m so happy to be able to share my thoughts on the continuation of the series.  Word of advice, this book will tear at your heart, have a box of tissues handy! 

Bailey is definitely a “fighter” in more ways than one.  If it wasn’t for Knox’s love, she wouldn’t be able to get past some more rocky situations in their relationship.  The sender of the notes, and dead roses reveals himself and tries to make his promise come true.  But Bailey is not going down without a fight.

Bailey, Knox, Max & Paige all experience their own dilemmas throughout this book.    Their solutions don’t always bring them together.  They find themselves all dealing with personal problems and they need each other to get through all their trials and tribulations.  This book is equally dramatic, definitely tugged at my emotions and made them raw, so be prepared for an amazing emotional read.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.



I Was born and raised in Dublin Ireland (above pic) and immigrated to the United States in 2001. I now live in Southern California :) enjoying the blue skies. 
Why write books?
Well it has always been a dream of mine to write a book, I have written many stories but never finished them or hid them away. Last November with some encouragement from my little sister I wrote my first novel Scarred Hearts. I enjoyed writing that book so much it took me three weeks to finish it! :)
