But by the time she knew lying was wrong, the lies had become such a part of her, such a part of her identity, she found it hard to piece out where the lie ended and the truth began.

Jenna Lewis has spent the last 14 years of her life running from her past, but it is her past that brings her home. Jenna has spent most of her life moving around and teaching, she never wanted to plant roots somewhere, especially so close to the place that holds a lot of her past. A past that she never truly recovered from. Will Jenna recover from the trauma of her childhood, will planet roots be able to help her feel whole again?

Holding on is believing that there’s a past; letting go is showing that there’s a future.

Ben Fisher, a single father, a childhood crush of Jenna and a broken man in his own right. He works hard and he does everything he can for his 6 year old daughter, Kate. Who doesn’t love a sexy, single father?

I absolutely loved this story. Jenna’s past and present are heartbreaking, but I found myself relating to her on some level. I can see a lot of myself in her. Ben’s past is also heartbreaking, but watching him and Jenna work together and try to heal each other is what makes this so beautiful.

The descriptions of Langley Park itself are absolutely beautiful. It truly feels like you are right there in the story with the characters. The secondary characters were also great and also lead to openings to future stories, which I truly hope we get in the future.
