Title: Homegoing
Author: Janae Keyes
Genre: Contemporary Second Chance Romance
Publication Date: August 1, 2018
Bethany Cross was avoiding her hometown like the plague. It was all due to one person in the population, the one who broke her heart, her ex-boyfriend and high school sweetheart Liam. When Bethany’s dad dies, and she's left with the pieces of his life, including his popular downtown bar, Crossroads. She’s forced to return home to the scars of her childhood and her broken heart.
Liam is pissed. He’s angry that the girl who somehow still held his heart wasn’t there for her dad in his time of need. When she returns to take care of her father’s homegoing service and possibly close the bar he’s known his entire life. He realizes that Bethany is more broken than he could have ever known.
Can one homegoing bring home two hearts that have always belonged together?
Nikki's 3.5 Star Review
I'm a big fan of second chance romance , this book ticked all the boxes when reading the blurb and although I enjoyed the story line I didn't love it. For me it seemed a little rushed in places and although there was a great spark between the main characters I feel they lacked that passion. Lots had happened between them in the past and I just wanted that passion to shine through as they fought for the Love they both still held for each other.
Bethany and Liam were childhood sweethearts but the older they got they they discovered their lives were going in different directions. Liam was happy staying in his home town and working the family business but Bethany had big dreams of becoming a surgeon and moving away. When Liam breaks her heart Bethany walks away and it's been years since she last made a visit home. That is until the death of her father and she has no other option than to confront her past.
An enjoyable read and this is my first time reading Janae Keyes I will be looking out for more from her in the future.
