Review
My Rating - 5 Stars!
E Davies' Redemption is a fantastic and powerful addition to the Men of Hidden Creek Season Four series.
We met Chad previously as a bully. He knows he made mistakes, he knows people are right to not trust him, but he's trying to better himself, and show the town that he's reformed. It's tough enough to get someone to give you another chance, but to get them to actually forgive and move on, is much more difficult.
This quote sums it up perfectly.
"Once you'd already fallen down, how the hell did you get back up?"
Chad and Jasper get into a sticky situation as the two start dating. It's tough for Jasper that the man Chad was such an ass to is Jasper's best friend. I love this aspect of the story. It's intriguing and well developed.
Chad and Jasper definitely make an interesting couple. Both are complex men who are struggling with everything in their lives. Together, these two men embark on a wonderful journey of forgiveness and strength.
The author excels in exploring the powerful effect of having one person believe in you. But most important though is learning to believe in oneself, and be less sensitive to what people say about you or think about you. This part resonates with me on a personal level, and I love the way it is handled.
Redemption is a wonderful, touching story. It is beautiful seeing Chad redeemed and loved again. E Davies once again pens a beautiful and worthwhile story. Despite Chad being in a previous book, this is easily read as a standalone.
