Were they opposites? Or soul mates?
Finding she had a perpetually unfaithful husband had been hard to cope with as a newly wed and newly certified marriage counselor. Still, that wasn’t as hard as finding her husband had a newborn daughter with a teenager—effectively ending both her marriage, and the career Monet McLaughlin had spent seven years building. That’ll leave a mark.
It’s why she absolutely knows not to trust Nick, the hunky male model who shows up two years later at her therapy horse stable to do a photo shoot for romance novel covers. Certainly no one who looks like that, and makes a living being that intimate with that many women, has a shred of moral integrity—do they?
They both know they are far too opposite for even a casual relationship, so then what the heck is going on here?
Cynics can heal—if they’re brave enough.
My thoughts:
This is the second book of Jaclyn's I've read and although it took me a little while to get involved it ended up being a book worth my time. Monet and Nick are more than two attractive people who meet and fall in love and despite Nick's "hot" appearance and Monet's troubled past, their story isn't just an escapist-romance. Healing Creek is a multi-faceted read with depth, refreshing integrity and a colorful splash of unexpectedness.
