A Healing Spirit Riverview Series Volume 2 Melissa A Hanson 9780996548526 Books

This is the second book in this Riverview series. I read and reviewed the first book not too long ago. As a reviewer, I don't always love the books I am reviewing. That goes without saying. But, I do believe that when I read a first book by an author, and don't really love it, I should give them another chance. Sometimes authors get better as they go, sometimes I get better as I go. :) Either way, I believe in second chances. I didn't really love the first book in this series but I had already signed on to review this one and like I said before, I thought I would give the author another chance.

Unfortunately, all the reasons I didn't really enjoy the first book were amplified in this book. This book is told in first person from multiple points of view. It drove me nuts. Especially in the beginning when it jumped from person to person. By the end of the book there was really only 3 alternating voices going on which was a relief, but I still would have appreciated it more if there weren't so many voices. The problem, especially in the beginning was that I didn't feel any connection to any of the characters. I didn't feel like I needed those alternating points of view to convey the information or emotion. It was just distracting.

My other problem was the swearing and profanity. The first book had a few mild instances, this book had a few more, some not so mild. Not a fan of that. The first book mentioned the couple not being ready for sexual relations quite yet, this book did the same but took things just a little bit farther.

I will say that by the end of the book I really did like the main characters, Mia and Dylan. Mia has a fantastic attitude toward life and it's always refreshing to have characters that sends out positive vibes. This book also tackles the very tough subject of domestic violence and I thought the author did a great job of capturing the emotions of abuse. I also liked the fact that this story was based on a real life event. I enjoyed reading about that in the back of the book.

I think now that I have a pretty good idea of how this author writes and I just don't think it's a good fit for me personally.

"Mia was special. She had already broken down several of my walls and found a place inside my heart and I knew I'd never be the same again."

Melissa A. Hanson does it again with A Healing Spirit! A Healing Spirit is the second book in the Riverview series. I actually just found out that there is a third book, and I am jumping up and down with joy!

Mia is not as together as her friends are. Bailey and Natasha are both attending school out of state, while Mia is attending the local community college. So, you can only imagine how excited Mia was to plan a ski trip with her friends. While at the resort, Mia is involved in a tragic accident. A boy named Dylan, who works at the resort, is part of the team that gets Mia off the mountain. Since then, Mia can't get Dylan out of her dreams and Dylan can't get Mia off his mind. Who could ever imagine that something so pure and beautiful could come from such a tragic event.

This is one adorable love story that you do not want to miss. It has the perfect amount of love mixed with just the right amount of heart break.

Melissa A. Hanson creates such amazing characters. Each with their own background and intense story. Dylan's story is extremely heartbreaking and will definitely surprise you! Mia and Dylan are perfect! So is Melissa's creative mind! As I said before, everyone needs these books on their shelves!

"Dylan?"
"Yes, baby?"
"Thank you, for rescuing me. Not once, but twice."
I was instantly smitten from the very start. I basically had to take it in doses because I was so overwhelmed.
And that was just the first 20 pages.
Like with the first I couldn't let go and couldn't wait to jump back in.

I fell in love with these two characters falling in love. I got so caught up in the writing and the way everyone's emotions were expressed.
That alone should get it's own rating. That writing style, towards the end I just had a total moment of "Huh."
I know I said this with the first, but it made me think, I don't know how, but it made my mind go to so many different places.

It made me think, it made me feel, it made me think about what I was feeling.

I don't read contemporary romances too often so finding one I absolutely love like this makes those rare moments worth it.
