Goodreads
I loved Book 1, Covered in Coal, but I love this book more! After the cliff-hanger in the first book, I didn’t know how or how long it would take Silla Webb to answer all the questions I had. In this book, Carly Jo discovers the paternity of her baby as well as makes her choice romantically. She also struggles to keep her daddy’s secrets that she learned in Covered in Coal but in doing so she ends up hurting someone she loves. And as for Savannah’s secret, oh goodness Be prepared for her secret to be a heartbreaker. And let’s not forget Carly Jo and Savannah’s sleazy half - brother, Drew. How does he fit into all of this?
I loved that the story was told from multiple points-of-view: Carly Jo, Colton, Luke, and Savannah. I also loved that it was written in regional dialect. I, honestly, hate reading a story where everything is written “properly”. The regional dialect makes it so much easier to connect with the characters in my opinion. I absolutely cannot wait until Book 3 comes out (tapping foot impatiently).
Silla Webb is a Kentucky native,
raised in the heart of the Eastern Kentucky coal fields. A coal truck driver's
daughter, and a railroader's wife, the coal fields own a special place in her
heart.
Silla is a work at home, Super Momma to
three rowdy boys, who keep her on her feet from daylight to sunset. As a pass
time from her everyday life, Silla started a blog-Momma's Secret Book
Obsession, for reviewing romance novels. From there, she realized that not only
did she have a natural love for reading and reviewing, but she found that lost
love of writing that she once had as a young girl.
When she isn't conquering the world as
a wife, momma and Super Woman, Silla loves to lay on the front porch swing and
read while sipping sweet tea, just passin' the day away.

Carly Jo Simon believed
that Colton Weston was her future, but he shattered her heart into tiny pieces.
Just like any little girl would, she assumed her daddy would always be by her
side. Unbelievably, he turned his back on her when she needed him most, leaving
her with no one in her life to turn to for support.
Without options, Carly
runs away from the only home she's ever known, leaving behind her heartache and
the betrayal of the two men she loved most.
Seven years later, Carly
reluctantly returns to Kentucky. Her daddy is dying of cancer and Colton is
nothing like the boy she once loved and left. After her daddy passes, Carly
must uproot her life in South Carolina and take control of Simon Coal Company,
where she has no choice but face the pain of her past.
Can Carly keep her
secrets buried deep beneath the black Kentucky coal and her heart safe from the
fiery Colton Weston?
