Beauty in Hiding
Harper’s second chance at life will become a second stint in prison if anyone connects her to those two dead men.
Nutfield, New Hampshire, is as good a place as any to hide from the murderer Harper left behind in Maryland. All she has to do is lie low and make enough money to keep herself and Red alive until she can figure out who her enemies are.
Jack Rossi is mystified by his beautiful new tenant and her confused grandfather. Something's not right, but the love he sees between them and the care she takes of the old man convinces Jack they're trustworthy. As drawn as he is to Harper, she’s his tenant, so she’s off limits.
Derrick, Harper's ex-boyfriend and Red’s grandson, needs to find his grandfather and get his hands on the old man’s money before Derrick ends up with a bullet in the skull. And when he gets his hands on Harper, she’ll be sorry for what she’s put him through.
Harper and Jack grow closer, but so do her enemies. If the truth comes out, she may lose her freedom—or her life.
My Review
Wow, this book is like night and day from the first one. The first book, I struggled with it. In fact, if it had not been for the last third of the story picking up and turning out to be good; I would have stopped at the first book. However, I wanted to give the second book a chance. So glad that I did. I really enjoyed this book. Harper has grown on me even more as did Red aka Gramps.
There was a new person in the mix. His name is Jack. He is the land owner who rents out a place to Harper and Gramps. It was nice to see both Gramps and Harper open up, smile and even laugh. Jack was nice. It was good of him to not push Harper too hard or quickly. In fact, even though there were sparks, he did not jump on their right away.
When it comes to Derrick. I am so over him. I can't wait for him to get his justice. I will be finishing this series out with book three.
