I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I found this to be a terrific book! I loved the romance that took years to fully develop between Lilly and Jack. I loved all the storyline between them and their many shared friends. I missed books 1 and 2 but the author didn’t make me feel like it was a problem.

Lilly has loved Jack since they were kids. She told him this when she was 18 and wanted to give him her virginity. He was best friends with her brother and on his way to the army so he rebuked her advances and I they left each other. Years later Lilly has returned to their home town after living in Los Angeles. She had been involved with an actor who was physically and mentally abusive and who raped her. After she went to the authorities without any justice for her, she returned home but didn’t tell anyone. Jack is in the FBI and was called to investigate a restraining order report filed by Lilly in Compass Cove when she learned that the abusive ex was going to be in her tiny hometown making a movie. She had a restraining order in La but the police didn’t renew it or believe her. The FBI implied that Lilly was crazy to accuse the famous actor so Jack kept their association to himself. Jack returns home as he is the best man to his his brother and Lilly is the maid of honor.

Along with all the suspense over the ex abusive boyfriend, we see Lilly and Jack come together and pursue a relationship after they realize their chemistry is off the charts. The romance is wet and steamy and so refreshing. I give this the max number of stars possible!

All of me by Jeannie Moon. A possible second chance at romance storyline. A great addition to the Compass Cove series. This is the third book in the series. Enjoyable storyline, loved the setting and likable characters. A book that pulled me in from the beginning. Look forward to reading more in this series.

I really love this series set in Compass Cove in Long Island. Jack’s and Lilly’s story has a long history going back to when she was only 18. She had a thing for Jack and thought he rejected her. Unbeknownst to her he too carried a torch. Fast forward years later to Lilly returning to Compass Cove following an abuse relationship with a Hollywood star. As she has settled in the star comes to town to film. She complains to the police and it ends up escalating to FBI - which brings FBI agent Jack into town to investigate - largely under the auspices of being on vacation and helping out with his brother Adam’s wedding to one of Liily’s best friend’s Mia. They both still feel the chemistry after more than a decade but both have a lot to overcome as well. The compass tells the story of true love here!

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. Thank you NetGalley.

All Of Me features the story of Lily and Jack. I'd say this is a second chance romance. Jack rejected Lily years ago... will he accept her this time? Will Lily want a second chance?!

The story of Lilly and Jack.

Lilly fell for Jack years ago, but he rejected her. Now he is back and wants nothing more than to protect her when he finds out she is in trouble. Will they get a second chance?

I discovered and fell in love with this author’s work when I read book one in the series. Each story has been wonderful and this one was no exception.
We are back in Compass Cove, where the legend promises that the Jenning’s compass will stop spinning when it points to your true love.
This story belongs to another Miller sibling, FBI agent Jack Miller and Lilly Vazquez.
No one knows why Lilly returned home and opened a hair salon, when she was doing so well in LA as a hair stylist for the stars. She’s kept a secret that changed her forever and it’s effect might never be overcome.
Jack is back in town for his brother’s wedding and he still has feelings for the young girl he turned away fourteen years ago.
As secrets are revealed and feelings between the two develop, Lilly’s world is once again shaken up. Will she be able to deal with her “enemy” and fears? Will Jack and Lilly miss their chance of love because of words spoken in anger?
At times heartbreaking and at others heartwarming , it’s also a story about domestic abuse and the long term effects it has on the victim. Feelings of worthlessness , terror and shame are hard to overcome, especially when dealing with them alone. But family, friends and that special person that loves and support you, can conquer all.
Another wonderful book in the series. Hoping that future stories revolve around Natalie, Doug and Luca.
I was entrusted a copy of this book by Netgalley and Tule Publishing. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Another Compass Cove hit by Jeannie Moon. Love this then and the people. Lily and Jack have a strong friendship cultivated in childhood, but they loose touch when feelings are exposed and rejected at a young age. Growing in two different directions, both Lily and Jack have some great life experiences that have changed them and made them different people.

Both are now back home. Lily lives in Compass Cove and Jack is back for his brother's wedding. Others are in town that are a threat to Lily and Jack will give his all to protect her.

Lily and Jack are great for one another, now convince them to give in the their strong attraction and they'll see they are meant to be.
