Jamison Valley Series

From USA Today Bestselling Author Devney Perry comes a small town, second chance romance.

Life on his ranch could be their future. If they can overcome their past.

Felicity’s life story reads like the script to a bad soap opera. Girl’s high-school boyfriend becomes a drug addict. Girl falls for boyfriend’s best friend. Girl leaves them both behind only to return home years later for murdered ex-boyfriend’s funeral. Now she’s back home in Montana, ready to start fresh. She’s got a long list of amends to make and relationships to rebuild, including one with the man who has owned her heart for sixteen years.

Silas doesn’t need much. He’s got a great horse, close friends, and the Lucky Heart ranch, but something has always been missing. He’s not an idiot. He knows the missing piece is Felicity. And now that she’s returned to Prescott, he’s got a second chance to win her heart. This time, the only thing standing in his way is history. Drudging up the past is going to be about as painful as playing tug of war with barbed wire. But if they can heal old wounds, he’ll get the girl he should have had all along.

NICUnurse’s Review of The Lucky Heart by Devney Perry

The Lucky Heart is the third book in the Jamison Valley series, and by the time I got to this story, I was thoroughly invested in all of the characters of this series. Silas and Felicity’s story is a second-chance, small-town romance with a wonderful cast of characters, a well-developed plot, and a smidge of suspense which is why I love Ms. Perry’s writing so much.

In the beginning, I had to wonder just how the author was going to be able to redeem Felicity because she was such an unlikeable character. But as in all of her books, she did it by writing her with such depth and willingness to grow that Felicity just seemed to flow well from a real witch with a capital B to a lovable heroine. And Silas was the perfect mix of sweet but tough that she needed right when she needed it. But given the history between them, that wasn’t surprising. While I understand that Silas’ dad had a lot to get over, most of the time, I just wanted to smack him to make him wake up to the fact that his attitude and actions were going to cause him to lose his son altogether.

As with the first two books in the series, I’m left kicking myself that I didn’t find Devney Perry’s books sooner. As a romantic suspense and series junkie, her books have yet to fail to check all of the boxes for me.

NICUnurse’s Rating: I give The Lucky Heart by Devney Perry 4 out of 5 propellers!
