Book Excerpt:
"A troubled young mother yearns for a shot at redemption in this heartbreaking yet hopeful story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover.
After serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where it all went wrong, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. Everyone in her daughter's life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself.
The only person who hasn't closed the door on her completely is Ledger Ward, a local bar owner and one of the few remaining links to Kenna's daughter. But if anyone were to discover how Ledger is slowly becoming an important part of Kenna's life, both would risk losing the trust of everyone important to them.
The two form a connection despite the pressure surrounding them, but as their romance grows, so does the risk. Kenna must find a way to absolve the mistakes of her past to build a future out of hope and healing."

Review:
"Reminders of Him" by Colleen Hoover"
My Assessment:
'Reminders of Him' was a beautiful story that will stay with one long after the read that dealt so well with 'love, heartbreak, pain, empathy, grief, and the power of forgiveness.'
We find Kenna Rowan, who was now out of prison, wanting above all to get to know her daughter Diem. However, the only person that Kenna could relate with about her daughter was Ledger Ward, Scottie's best friend. But the scene will change as 'their romance grow, and so will the risk.' It seems like all Kenna was trying 'to do right and make amends for the tragic past.'
What will happen when Scottie's parents confront ledger over the issue of Kenna in these unexpected twists of fate? This is where I say you will have to pick up this excellent read and see how well the author gives the reader quite a good read that will clear everything all up. The side characters were all well-developed, giving one something that would keep you turning the pages to see what was coming next with this rough issue of what was going on.
Be ready for an honest, emotionally gritty read that will leave you with feelings about how this story will all comes out...' featuring tragedy, growth, and forgiveness.'
These words were so eloquent taken from the story:
"I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Repeat."
The narrators did an excellent job in telling the story.
