Magnolia Ellington is all too aware that dangerous things can come in shiny packages. Her husband made sure to teach her that.
Desperate to escape his wrath—and his fists—she flees in the dark of night. Seeking safety and shelter with the only family she has left, Magnolia finds herself in the sleepy, Southern town of Dogwood—and in the arms of Simon McAllister.
Simon has always been more of a thinker than a doer. That changes the minute he meets shy and mysterious Magnolia. She has him rushing into action, ready and willing to do whatever it takes to earn her trust.
Slowly, with his steadfast determination and kind heart, Simon brings Magnolia out of her shell. But just as things start heating up between the two of them, the darkness of Magnolia’s past resurfaces, threatening to rip apart everything they’ve worked so hard for.
With their future hanging in the balance, Simon fears he’s losing Magnolia. Now, he must convince her that, together, they can weather the storm.
I received this book for free from LK Farlow in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Weather the Storm is LK Farlow’s best work yet! Simon and Magnolia stole my heart from the first page and never let go!
I can’t begin to tell you how much I adore Simon. He’s all that and a bag of chips. Seriously. A southern gentlemen that stays by Mags side when times are hard and stands up for her when necessary but still knows when she needs him to take a step back and give her space.
The end of An Uphill Battle set us up for the beginning of Weather the Storm and the wait to see what would happen to Magnolia pretty much KILLED me, but Lord have mercy it was so worth it! (PS You don’t need to read the other two to read this one) The intensity of the beginning of this story really set the tone for the entire story and kept me hooked and engaged from the get go.
The element that really sealed the deal for me in Weather the Storm was a third point of view that was thrown in. Reading this perspective just added a level of depth and angst to the story. The sense of dread that this point of view gave us had me freaking out a little bit on the inside, I was scared for Mags and just hoped that Simon would be there to protect her.
I really enjoyed watching Magnolia grow in strength and confidence as she built a relationship with Simon. Seeing her come into her own from the meek scared girl we first met to the powerful and confident woman she became.
