Falling in love is supposed to be the easy part. 
But nothing prepared me for losing my wife. I promised her that I’d love again. Find someone to mend my broken heart. And that seems impossible, until the day that I walk into Tilly Carter’s cupcake shop. 
I’ve never met a woman like her—sassy, dirty-mouthed, and smells like vanilla and sin. Someone that makes me want to sweep her off her feet. 
But there’s pain in her emerald eyes that mirrors mine. 
A past that neither of us can truly escape.
Now that I have her, I’ll do anything to keep her.

Review:

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars


Hook is a book where both MCs have lost their spouse and how they found love again. What I didn't really like about this plot is that I got the impression that Angelo and Tilly were each other's second best choice. The author did a great job at not making Mitchell and Marissa the bad people or lessening the love Angelo and Tilly had for them, but in a way it made it seem like Mitchell was Tilly's soul mate and Marissa Angelo's. It felt a lot like two people who settled for each other.

Another issue I had was Michelle. The second(?) chapter was pretty much about her and the fact that she was leaving town and it was supposed to affect Angelo. According to him, he was just fooling around with her and they didn't sleep together. Am I supposed to believe that? Because in the second chapter it seemed like they were sleeping together and the story could have been about them. My issue when it came to her was her appearance in this book and the fact that she had a very close relationship with Angelo's family. It felt weird having them hook-up.

Angelo's kids were cute, but we mostly saw his daughter. His son is mostly mentioned. I found that very weird and it was a turn off for me. The book could have been better (always in my opinion) if the author hadn't decided to focus so much on the dead people. Tilly lost her husband many years ago, but she made me feel like that happened yesterday and he is mentioned a lot. I felt like that took something from the story and it wasn't good.
