Synopsis

First love. A second chance. Secrets with the power to change lives. 

When Will Kincaid's professional football career comes to an abrupt end in a single night, he's left to figure out what he's going to do with the rest of his life. He heads home to the small Virginia town where he grew up and crosses paths with Hannah Jacobs, the only girl in high school who had ever rejected him. It's Hannah who once made him question the choices he had made, and it's Hannah who's making him question them all over again. But with the weight of a secret he's managed to hide from the world his entire adult life hanging over him, he can't afford to question his choices. 

Hannah Jacobs had once made the choice to deny her feelings for Will Kincaid, at the time finding it the only possible option for a young girl intent on burying a nightmare she only wanted to forget. The life she's made for herself as a librarian in Lake Perdue is a quiet one, and she's hardly prepared for the day when Will rams his fancy Ferrari into her dependable old clunker. But for Hannah, Will Kincaid can only stir up memories she had long ago put away forever. And there's nothing at all good that can come from bringing them back to life again. 

***


★★★★★ One of the very best books I've ever read! Cooper knows how to keep you absorbed and wanting more. I didn't want to put the book down. A definite must read! I can't wait to read more from her.

★★★★★ How romance stories are supposed to be written.

★★★★★ While you now there will be "Happily Ever After", Inglath Cooper manages to keep her heroes and heroines interesting. They have their quirks, faults, and weaknesses, making them all the more likable. This is a great love story, where two people have to overcome challenges, and often themselves to find love in the end. I love how Inglath Cooper doesn't feel the need to over-do the sexuality, she makes her point and moves on. As all of her books that I've read, this is a great, well-written story.

★★★★★ What a lovely romance! Truths and Roses captured me from the first page to the last. This is an emotional-charged story with great depth to the characters. I felt that I really knew what made the hero and the heroine tick by the end of the book. It also has an excellent HEA. Happy reading!

★★★★★ A lot of romance novels are written with 95% of the book devoted to building a complex! intricate story filled with clashes and problems and then solving all the problems in a quick, pat ending involving a few pages. So often it's as if the author is just wanting to be done with the story. That wasn't the case in this book. Unwinding the problems and finding more realistic solutions makes this book's conclusion so much better than the "true love solves everything" of the other books.

★★★★★ I'm so glad that I've found this author! Fast, easy reads that put a smile on your face. Couldn't put down!

★★★★★ I don't usually write reviews, I'm a reader not a writer, as I'm fond of saying but every now and then a book comes along that I just have to comment on and this is one of those books! I started this last night and literally could not put it down! I finished it around 5AM this morning. This is a story that not only can a lot of people connect to but it's one you can actually believe in and not just some whimsical fairy tale that we dream of but know can or would never really happen. The author really delivered on this one, it kept me glued to the pages and is filled with the unexpected! Can't wait to read another one by Inglath Cooper!

About this title

About the Author:

Virginia author Inglath Cooper is a RITAŽ Award winner for best long contemporary romance novel chosen each year by Romance Writers of America. 

"I first fell in love with reading as a little girl, devouring most of the books in my elementary school library. At some point, I decided I wanted to pursue a writing career, creating romance fiction that might do for others what my favorite books did for me. I love character-driven books that leave me feeling as if I've really known these people and make me wish I didn't have to turn the last page."

"Romance fiction has always appealed to me because it deals with so many of the relationships in a woman's life. Not only the love of her life, but often her relationship with her mother, sister or best friend. Romance authors have so much room to explore many of the meaningful moments and transitions in women's lives. And who doesn't love a good love story?"

When aspiring writers ask her how to be an author, she says, "Everything I know about writing books I learned from reading books."
