Book Review: Lost Innocence by Jannine Gallant

Title: Lost Innocence

Author: Jannine Gallant

Stars: 4 Stars

Review:
Lost Innocence starts off with sweet Nina Hutton enjoying her quite life than everything is turned upside down with someone breaking in her house, a new neighbor and his daughter moving in across the street and emotions no one wants to feel.

The author used certain charterers as placements until they were needed instead of using them throughout the story. 
The story is more romance than mystery but its the characters builds that will have readers hooked to the story.
As the story ends readers will see the twist coming.  Its the emotions that come along that readers will not expect.

Add this to your summer to be read pile and enjoy.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher  Lyrical Press, Inc for the advance copy of Jannine Gallant Lost Innocence.

About the Author:

Write what you know. I've taken this advice to heart, creating characters from small towns and plots that unfold in the great outdoors. I grew up in a tiny Northern California town and currently live in beautiful Lake Tahoe with my husband and two daughters. When I'm not busy writing, I hike or snowshoe in the woods around my home. Whether I'm writing contemporary, historical or romantic suspense, I bring the beauty of nature to my stories.
