Release Blitz & Review - TRUSTING ROMANCE by S.E. Rose

 TRUSTING ROMANCE

SE Rose

Release Date: February 23

Jocelyn Hernandez loves romance books, but ever the skeptic, she doesn’t believe that they are anything more than some great fairy tales.

She’s been spending the last year working at a romance bookstore while she finishes her graduate degree. But with her graduation coming up soon, she’s not sure what she’s going to do with her life. She’s been burnt so many times by family, guys she’s dated, and even friends that she isn’t sure who to trust. It doesn’t help that she swears she keeps seeing a man that might be her long lost father. Her head is spinning with indecision, and she feels adrift with no anchor. Can she even trust herself to figure out her next move?

Hutch Cromwell had everything he wanted. He had a perfect girlfriend, his dream career playing football, and an enormous home near his parents’ farm. But when a tractor accident on the farm left him injured, his whole word came crashing down. He’s now living in the city, working in a job that pays his bills, and not trusting women enough to date.

Jocelyn and Hutch have flirted, talked for hours at happy hour, and even given each other hugs during hard times over the last year. But when they end up sharing a guesthouse on a group vacation, their hidden feelings come bubbling to the surface. The only question is: Can these two friends get over their trust issues long enough to give each other a chance at romance?

We are back to Hearts Lane for some fun with this found family. I have been waiting patiently for Hutch's story.
Hutch certainly has some of his own things to work through before he is ready to jump into a relationship. He has been coasting through since loosing his football career. He distanced himself from his family, letting his own thoughts tell the story. But for some reason Jocelyn just pulled him in. He wants to spend time with her.
Jocelyn is working towards finishing her schooling. Trying to decide what is next for her. But when she thinks she sees her father she has talked to in years, it brings back lots if hurts from her past. Hutch is a safe place and makes her feel seen. 
Hutch and Jocelyn have become very good friends over the past months and both are afraid to loose what they have. But the more time they spend together the more thoughts are wandering to something different. Will they cross that line?
