Twisted Small-town Romance
Jessie and Cam were always made for each other. But they had to go through the darkness to find their love again. Literally. Sophie Barstow has a unique style and storytelling. I love the way she gives you the dates and times. How she weaves the story from the past to tell the present. Can’t wait to read more in this series.

Jessie and Cam have known each other all their lives. After the tragedy of losing her family, Jessie and Cam grow even closer. While their lives take different paths they both end up Swan Harbor and Cam once again helps Jessie heal. Jessie leaves suddenly and Cam's heart is broken. Just as Cam is putting his life back together Jessie comes back to town for a friend's wedding. Will Jessie's secrets tear them apart or will they fight for their love?
I love a fast paced romance with a little mystery thrown in. I don't normally enjoy second chance romances but I quite enjoyed this one. Their story is told from a dual POV and includes trips to their past. I felt like this really helped build the characters and helped me understand why they made the choices they did. I also loved the Swan Harbor residents blurb included at the start of the book. It really helped to give a quick overview of all the characters. Sometimes I find it difficult to follow if I haven't read any of the previous books. Overall this was an enjoyable read!

This is the first book by this author that I have read and although it took me a couple of chapters to get into the story and the writing I found that I fell into the town and characters, wanting to know what was happening.
This small town, second chance romance with a twist of suspense and a dash of sports romance.
Jessie and Cameron have a past that left them both with fractured hearts, and years later they find themselves acquainted, with chemistry between them the suspense comes in when someone decides to stop them.
Well written and emotional you are taken into this small town and you probably (like me) wont want to leave.

This is a re-release of a previously published title. I have not read anything by this author before but I've heard some great things about her, as well as a sports (ice skating and hockey) storyline drew me in. This story is a bit reminiscent of a movie I saw one time with a similar plot line, which caught me off guard a couple of times, but this story is still it's own.
I was immediately drawn to both characters of Jessie and Cameron. I felt like I was their best friend looking in on their story. They really welcome you into the story from the beginning and don't want you to leave in the end. This is a series I'll be looking for when new releases come out!
If you enjoy a good romance with some mystery and suspense worked in, you'll find this to be an enjoyable read!

From Darkness into Love (Hope & Hearts from Swan Harbor Book 1) by Sophie Bartow. This is a second chance romance and my first book by this author but it will for sure not be my last. I loved it. Its full of drama, romance, grief, mystery & family. Jessie & Cameron grew up together and eventually that friendship turned to romance. Cam was with Jessie thru all kinds of ups and downs including the loss of her parents. When she decides all the tragedy is too much and leaves town to pursue her skating career it leaves Cam broken hearted. After Jessie suffers an injury she returns home for a friends wedding and sees Cam. Cam had finally moved on and tried to get over Jessie but when he sees her all those old feelings come back. Will he let Jessie back in after hurting him so badly? There are other things that do not want them together and when that mystery turns up again it may be the end of them for good. When Cam finds out the real reason Jessie left town will it make them or break them. Read this amazing second chance romance to find out!
Jessie has her heartbroken in a way that she is not sure she can ever survive another blow. Now she is back home and her old love has found another. Moving forward Jessie knows she needs to work on herself, but there are also questions about everything she knows and what is the truth. Cameron is by her side though and the love they once had begins to resurface, can Jessie trust what her heart feels?
This was a riveting story. Goes back and forth a bit from current to past with all the characters involved. I was rooting for Jessie and Cameron to find their happily ever after.

This was the first book I had picked up by this author, but the cover looked really cute, so I gave it a chance. I’m so glad that I did because it was such a wonderful experience! I’m from a small town, and the author seemed to have captured the feel of it perfectly. The very beginning grabbed my attention and refused to let go as I read about this second chance romance. Cameron and Jessie are fantastic characters that encounter some very dramatic situations that will fill you with suspense. I have enjoyed this writing style very much and will continue to look for more books by this author. I highly recommend picking it up if you enjoy romantic suspense novels about second-chance romances!
