No One But You Book Review

This was book two in the series but for some reason, I couldn't find book one at the library.  I went with what I could get to read the series in order.  No One but You: A Novel (Silver Springs) by Brenda Novak was the first book in the series that I read but it was a great place to start.

New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak welcomes you to Silver Springs, a picturesque small town in Southern California where even the hardest hearts can learn to love again…

Struggling to make ends meet after a messy divorce, Sadie Harris is at the end of her tether. Her waitressing gig isn’t enough to pay the bills let alone secure primary custody of her son, Jayden, a battle she refuses to lose. Desperate, she accepts a position assisting Dawson Reed—the same Dawson Reed who recently stood trial for the murder of his adoptive parents. Joining him at his isolated farm seems risky, but Sadie is out of options.

Dawson has given small town Silver Springs plenty of reasons to be wary, but he’s innocent of the charges against him. He wants to leave his painful past behind and fix up the family farm so he can finally bring his dependent sister home where she belongs.

As Sadie and Dawson’s professional relationship grows into something undeniably personal, Sadie realizes there’s more to Dawson than the bad boy everyone else sees—he has a good heart, one that might even be worth fighting for.

This was the book I read while on vacation which was a story that was hard to put down.  I went to bed a little early and stayed in bed a little late so that I could find out what was going to happen next.  Sadie was trying to do her best for her son, Jayden, but her husband did everything to fight that because he felt that she would come back to him if she couldn't make it on her own.  As a police office, he made most of the businesses in town turn Sadie down for jobs because they were afraid of him.She finally finds someone how is willing to take a chance on her but she needs to decide if she is willing to take a chance on him.  Dawson was in jail for killing his adoptive parents.  Sadie was worried for herself if she took the job and even more if she didn't because she couldn't make a life for her child.  Dawson came back to his family farm to make a home for his sister after he got out of jail even though he knew it was going to be tough for him.  It was a great book and it certainly had me hoping for the best.  I hope that you check it out and the rest of the series.
