Woodrose Mountain by RaeAnne Thayne

Review by Sara Palacios

Woodrose Mountain by RaeAnne Thayne is a heartwarming story about redemption, forgiveness, and second chances. Once a thriving physical therapist in California, Evie Blanchard leaves her former life behind after an emotional year and finds herself in Hope’s Crossing, hoping to start a new, peaceful life. That seems unlikely once she finds out about the tragic accident that devastated the small town a few months prior to her move. Brodie (a single father) hears of her expertise and hopes that she can help rehabilitate his daughter Taryn, who was severely injured in the accident. At first, Taryn’s outlook for full recovery looks doubtful, but with help from Evie – and a few other surprising sources – things change. With a little encouragement, friendship, and love, Taryn may actually get the help that she needs to fully heal … but she isn’t the only one who needs a second chance.

I absolutely adored Woodrose Mountain. I loved the interactions between the characters and I think RaeAnne did an excellent job at making them feel authentic as they were going through their many trials and tribulations. This book is the perfect example of the strength of the human heart and the power of redemption. I loved seeing Taryn overcome so many obstacles to triumph at the end, as well as to see Evie finally give into her heart.
