The Fragile Truth (The Honeysuckle Island #2) Reviews
-
Trust can be a tricky thing and very fragile. This Honeysuckle Island series isn't light and fluffy--there are suspenseful undertones that actually filtered into my dreams at night, making for some very interesting and intense nights.
Sheriff Ian has been burned before but is instantly smitten with personal chef Sadie, and this is where trust and truth really come into play. I loved the ebb and flow of their relationship, especially as the truth is revealed. The whole cast of characters was wonderful--some were mysterious, some were intriguing, some were genuinely likable, while others were villainous.
The twists and turns were so fast paced and exciting. This is the type of story that Youngblood writes best.
Content: mild romance; mild violence/moments of peril/death; mild religion

I love a good series. And this one is really dragging me in. I read Chasing Whispers last year and really enjoyed it. I’m finally getting to the rest of the series.
I loved that this one featured different characters than the first book. But still had some of the same characters. It was fun to see the plot through different and new characters eyes.
I liked that Ian was one of the main characters. In the first book, he was kind of one of the bad guys. So seeing things through his eyes cleared a lot of things up. Ian was not at all what I had thought he was from the first book. He was a good guy, just trying to do his job.
Sadie is a new addition to the island. And she has a secret. That kept me intrigued, trying to figure out what her secret was. I liked the way she got Ian to meet her. Sadie is a spunky person who isn’t afraid to get in and try to figure things out, despite the danger.
This book kept me guessing. There are tons of secrets that come out. I had no idea who the bad guy was in this one until the very end. Such a great book! -
Oh my gosh!! That was so good!! I loved finding out the mystery behind Lina. I had suspicions of different people through the whole book, but never knew for sure. I loved the not knowing. I also love the fact that Ian had to face his own forgiveness where Lina was concerned and was open to forgiving Sadie. Their story is so good. Sadie's story is good too. I can sympathize with her decision to kill, but you also show that their is justice to be served for our actions. So good.
I received an advance copy of this book from bookfunnel, however, I am sharing my honest opinion here. -

I am loving this series! Ian was not the most likable character in the first book. In this one, his protective and caring nature shines through. Sadie is mysterious and sweet. I love how these imperfect characters learn to overcome their weaknesses in order to develop a closeness to one another. So many twists and turns in the mystery behind this story. Terrific supporting charaters. I can' wait for more!

This is a great series. Because I had been introduced to Ian through the first book, at the start of this book, I really disliked Ian. Once Sadie entered the picture, I began to like Ian better and appreciate the trials he had been through. I began to realize that Ian is a great sheriff just trying to protect everyone in his jurisdiction. I love Sadie and her strength and her willingness to let God help change her life. I love this story and the twists and turns it takes. WONDERFUL!

Slow start, great finish
The first part of this book was a very slow start for me. I had a hard time sticking with it. But the last 2/3 of the book moved the story along. There is lots of suspense. The ending was happy. -

GOOD ONE!
I’ve read several books by Jennifer Youngblood and this is another great mystery. Honestly, I wasn’t crazy about how this one started out and it seemed kinda slow… but once the foundation was laid, the storyline picked up momentum. Ultimately, the mystery evolved and became very intriguing, leaving you guessing and changing murder suspects until the story concluded. It’s a really interesting story and highly recommended. -
Fantastic couldn’t put it down
This is the second book of this series and it didn’t disappoint! So much suspense and intrigue. Literally couldn’t put it down. Must read for sure but don’t read it before Chasing Whispers. Must read in order! Can’t wait for #3!
