ISBN: 9780373609178
After being away for over seven years, James
Bracken returns home to Fairhope, Alabama, a town in which he vowed never to
come back. His neighbor florist Adrian
Carlton is irate and afraid of James being next door. When he left town, James abandoned her and
their unborn child. When James meets
Adrian’s child Kyle, he knows by the age and especially the blue eyes that he
is the father and demands time with his son.
Instead she tells him to stay away from her and her son as he has no
rights.
Filled with regret for what he did to Adrian
and Kyle, and the lost opportunity to share a dream with his late dad, James
opens up Bracken Mechanics. When he
learns that Adrian married abusive Radley, James struggles with not battering
the SOB. As James and Adrian realize
they remain in love, Kyle comes first; but Radley has other plans for his ex.
Though the theme is not new and Radley the psychopath
has no redeeming quality whatsoever, His Rebel Heart is an enjoyable second
chance at family drama. Readers will
root for the mama bear protecting her cub at risk to herself and the remorseful
rebel with a cause to come together.
