Short romance, tender with young emotional heroine
Barbara Hannay's NEEDED: HER MR. RIGHT is the second book in the SECRETS WE KEEP multi-author trilogy. Simone's secret is dark and emotional, adding another layer to the series and the friendship between the women. The emotions are intense as the characters are young and less experienced in life as the characters in the first romance of the series.
Simone discovered friendship during her cycling charity ride for street kids in the Himalayas and the courage to deal with her past secrets. During her trip, she kept a diary where she wrote about the her past and her dreams---and the secrets her two friends, Belle and Claire, and confided in her. Once home, she discovers that her diary is missing. Ryan Tanner, the black sheep son of a mining business magnate, catches a glimpse of Simone in the airport and in the taxi line. When a book falls out in the gutter, he grabs it to protect the leather from the rain. When he finally discovers her identity, can the two trust each other? Both Simone and Ryan have family secrets. Will their secrets come between these two lone individuals or will they somehow find a way to trust one another, heal their past and maybe find that special once in a lifetime love?
NEEDED: HER MR. RIGHT is a short romance with a couple of tender and classic fantasies juxtaposed with some dark secrets. Barbara Hannay did not hesitate to make Simone an individual with her own personality. The couple had a younger feel than the characters in the first book of the series. Simone and Ryan, young and somewhat loners at least deep in their heart, have troubled pasts. Consequently they see and feel with a heightened sensitivity and exuberance that comes from finally discovering that person who unlocks their heart and opens the door to sharing. The ending of this romance tied a few too many threads together by creating adjacent scenes to resolve them. This created an ending that felt diffuse compared to the compact, dynamic way Barbara Hannay wrote the scenes between the hero and heroine. Barbara Hannay has a gift for writing tight, powerful scenes between the hero and heroine as well as writing dialogue that would stand out more if she tried to cover less ground in the ending.
SECRETS WE KEEP truly felt like a series beyond just a mere construct. One book flows to the next with a sense of continuity between the two books. Barbara Hannay did not waste time repeating the construct. Instead, this romance takes an image prepared carefully by Liz Fielding in REUNITED: MARRIAGE IN A MILLION and created a dynamic start that immediately draws the reader back into the series and into Barbara Hannay's own characters' romance.
