🔖 REVIEW 🔖 Hold on to Hope by A.L. Jackson {GIVEAWAY!}




Hold on to Hope by A.L. Jackson

Release Date: October 28th 2019
Genres: Romance, Contemporary

A best friends-to-lovers, stand-alone romance from New York Times Bestselling Author, A.L. Jackson . . . 

Evan Bryant wasn't your typical hero. 
But he was mine. 
Broken by the worlds’ standards, he was still the strongest boy I would ever know. 
My best friend. The boy I’d given everything to. My heart, my body, and the promise of forever.
The day I’d needed him most, he walked away. 
He left me shattered and questioning the love I’d thought we’d shared. 

Three years later, I wasn’t prepared for him to return to Gingham Lakes.
It wouldn’t have mattered if he wasn’t the most beautiful man I’d ever seen. 
My fingers still would have ached to caress his skin. 
My body still would have begged to get lost in his touch. 
And my heart . . . it would have always sung his name. 
But time changes things. With it, secrets that could ruin everything. 
Can we find a way to love again, or have the fears of our past stolen the hope of our forever . . .



My Review:

Hold on to Hope is a heartwarming friends-to-lovers story that will have you hooked from beginning to end. Having met the characters in Jackson’s previous series, we got to know them briefly as little kids and now we get to finally get to read their story and it does not disappoint.

Frankie Leigh has always lived in Gingham Lakes, that’s where she grew up with a very extensive family and community that truly cares about her. That is also where she met a little boy when she was just 5 years old, her special new friend was deaf but he had the ability to read lips and they both became instant friends. 

She was wild while he had to become her protector and he took that very seriously growing up. But Frankie soon found out that Evan had an illness, a genetic defect and this made her protective of him. Evan knew that his heart could fail at any minute and he did everything he could to protect Frankie from the grieve that everyone around him experienced. 

As they got older, Frankie started seeing Evan in a new light. He wasn’t just her best friend anymore and she wished he could give them a chance. Yet, when he did, Evan did what he promised not to do and that was to brake her heart. He left without saying good bye and came back three years later full of mystery but with one goal in mind…to win her back. Little did he realized that Frankie Leigh would have a secret of her own that could threaten to ruin their future.

I’m so impressed with the book, it was truly a great read! A.L. Jackson knows how to deliver stories full of substance and depth. This story felt more emotional especially after getting both perspectives in the book. I truly felt connected to the characters as they went on their journey to finding their forever. There are twists in the story that had me at the edge of my seat and the ending will melt your heart. All in all, Hold on to Hope is worth checking out as well as any other book by the author. You will not regret it! :)
