Home was where Reed would be…

~~Selina's 4 Star Review~~
Forgiving Reed by C.A. Harms is a book about your first
heart break, your first great love, and the soul crushing tragedy that comes
with it. It’s about being strong for the
people that need you to be, accepting help, and the acceptance of what already
is. It’s about love, lose, and forgiveness. I truly am baffled how C.A. Harms is able to
make me feel heart ache and happiness in one beautifully written book.
Kori’s character is someone who you wish was in your life. She struggles through so much yet is such a
strong woman and mother. She raises Rhett, her son, back home on her parent’s
farm after the unthinkable happens that leaves her a shell of the woman she
once was. She slowly starts to heal but
there’s a factor she didn’t put into her equation—Reed.
Reed betrayed Kori when they were younger and that left her
broken. So she leaves for college across
the country. Then she meets Blake, Rhett’s
father, and Blake shows her how to love again. When catastrophe strikes, Kori’s
world is turned upside down.
C.A. Harms wrote an awesome book that brought both sad and
happy tears. I really enjoyed the way
she executed the story line and plot.
The reading was smooth and I had a hard time putting the book down. I connected with the characters and although I
hated. Let me repeat. I HATED Reed in the beginning. I actually grew
to love him. I’m talking about “why the
heck don’t I have me one of them in my life” kind of love. Reed is total swoon
worthy book boyfriend material. I mean
come on, he has thrusting thighs!
I did feel like there was an unresolved issue involving trespassing
and a vehicle. I don’t want to give
anything away but I feel like there should have been quite a bit more
info. I felt like I was left hanging on
that issue. I hope it’s going to have
some sort of conclusion in the second, maybe …third book?
Other than that minor issue, I truly did enjoy this
book. I really can’t wait for the second
book, Finding Gavin. Now that’s one man
that has got to have some issues.
