A Promise Kept by D.C. Renee

5.0

Lila Meddings is confused and so am I – great way to get me hooked. Tyson Welsh is a very confusing man – another great way to get me hooked. Once I got started I wasn’t able to stop. I was going to get this finished in one day no matter what it took. With all the ups and downs, twists and turns, I just had to be careful not to get carsick.

This story seems to be a modern day mash-up of two older stories. I’m not going to give that away because it will be easy for you to discover on your own. I loved how the author did the spin on them while adding in something that will tug at your heart. The author could have made this a very dark story but she let Lila’s light and love shine through. It took a while to get there but given the way this book started the author gives her readers the perfect ending.

This is a story to take a chance on. It doesn’t start off happy. You go through the story wondering what the true story is. Is this story going to show the darker side of humanity? That could have happened but the author created a secondary character that was a friend to Tyson and ended up being a friend to Lila as well. No scene seemed to drag on or slow down the pace the author set. That was one reason that it was so easy to read the book in one day. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
