Her secret blew apart his life—and now she needs his help? If only he could say no…

Ten years should be long enough for Jack to forget the girl-next-door, his kid sister’s bestie and the woman—no, girl—who derailed his life. Now, he sort of likes his loner world as a missing person’s tracker. Well, mostly. But of course, when he returns home for his sister’s wedding, there she is…

Nope, not forgotten at all.

Of course Jack the Grump has shown up for his sister’s wedding, and by the way he looks at Harper, um, clearly her sins aren’t forgiven. So what—she’s sooo over her best-friend’s brooding, dark oldest brother. Really.

Then a bridesmaid goes missing.

And sure, Harper is a journalist who knows how to sniff out truth, but the clock is ticking and there’s only one person who can help…Perfect. No problem. She’s not going to fall for her childhood crush again. Promise.

Yes, Jack can admit that Harper’s not the girl he used to call Pigtails anymore. She’s all grown up…but he’s not going to get burned again. Still, what’s a guy going to do?

So, find her missing friend, get the bride down the aisle and ditch town before they find themselves in over their heads…or worse.

Dead.

Jack is a best friend’s brother, childhood crush, grumpy-to sunshine, sweet but sizzly romantic suspense about second chances and finding the family you always wanted…

Tropes:

  • Second Chance at Love
  • Unrequited Love
  • Return to hometown
  • Grumpy/Sunshine
  • Secrets
  • Boy/Girl Next door
  • Kissing only

Some mistakes actually are a good thing, maybe

Jack
Minnesota Kingstons #1
By Susan May Warren

He is returning home for Boo, his little sister's wedding. For the last ten years, he's been trying to ignore what could have been the biggest mistake, make that regret, of his life. But it's all good. He's forgotten all about Harper, and she's sure to not be at the wedding.

Okay, he's been running, but it has shaped him into the man he is today. He's a tracker. Sure, the pay is good, but the satisfaction of helping others drives him. Now, Harper is asking him to help her find an MIA bridesmaid. This is so bad, Boo's perfect wedding is threatened, and Harper needs his help. Jack can't help himself; he has to help, but he works alone and makes no promises.

But this is Harper, and she's not about to sit back while Jack works. Nope, she's in this, and Jack will just have to accept her help. But the deeper they dive into the mystery, the closer danger comes. And it could leave them dead.

As with all of Susan May Warren's books, there are ties to previous books and series. Just enough to whet one's appetite for another book, but not enough to detract from a story that can be enjoyed on its own. This book offers hints about what's to come in the series, but the story itself does not end in a cliffhanger. If you want romance, suspense, and a good dose of family drama Jack is waiting to be added to the top of your TBR pile.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.

Adventures and family

An awesome start to another epic adventure series! This story has a little bit of everything from adventure, suspense, romance and of course, faith. I love series that focus on siblings. Jack is the oldest brother, but we get a glimpse at each of the Kingston siblings in this story.

I am excited to read each book in this series, and learn every detail about the Kingston siblings. This series is definitely going to be a thrill ride!

Wonderful Story

Jack by Susan May Warren features the wedding of Boo and Oaken, a couple from a previous novel. While it was nice to catch up with some previous characters, it was nice to be introduced to the new cast of characters for the Kingston series. It takes a while before the action begins. The story begins with Harper coming home and dreading running into Jack, the man who she secretly still loves. Once they meet, then the internal dialogue and feelings between the two really run the story line for the story. While this is a huge part of the story, Warren does put in a kidnapping that drives them together as they hunt for their missing friend. Readers will enjoy reading about the hunt and solving the missing person. However, there is a thread in the story that, I believe, will lead to more of an overarching mystery that readers will need to keep reading the story to learn more about. On the other hand, Warren does a wonderful job at bringing the setting to life. I loved how cold it was and the lodges and family homes that she built and brought to my imagination. I want to take a winter vacation to visit this wonderful landscape up north. Overall, Jack by Susan May Warren is a must read for fans of Warren’s writing who love action and romance mixed into an unforgettable storyline. Readers will anxiously await the next installment in the series. I know that I do.

I received a complimentary copy of Jack by Susan May Warren through Sunrise Publishing and JustRead Tours, but the opinions stated are all my own.
