Beneath the Willow: Book Review

Amazons Description:
Jesse and Sarah’s journey continues in Beneath the Willow, the sequel to the heartfelt novel, Across the Creek.
For Jesse Malone, an architect in Chicago, life has been anything but easy. After losing the love of his life six years earlier, he is determined not to let love slip through his grasp once again.
Sarah Ramsey, a business owner in the Windy City, is struggling to keep everything together through a difficult divorce. Her husband, a once brilliant attorney, is about to lose his career along with his marriage and is set on making Sarah’s life just as miserable as his.
When Jesse and his fiancée, Kate, walk into a local floral shop to pick out the flowers for their upcoming wedding, Jesse runs into the only other woman he has ever loved, Sarah. Their brief encounter sets off a series of catastrophic events as Sarah reveals a secret that will test the foundations of their lives, leaving them with one certainty…life will never be the same for either of them.


This is book 2 and continues the story of Jesse and Sarah.  Get your tissues ready...as if book 1 wasn't sad enough, this book throws another curve ball at you.  The story was a sad one, but it definitely ended on a high note.  As in the previous book, the characters are likable and relatable.  I liked the storyline, though I wish it had been a bit happier--maybe in book 3?  I found it a little predictable at times, but overall, I really enjoyed it.  I can't wait to find out what happens next.
