***CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE***

Samantha is aimless. A college dropout who’s just been kicked out of her house, she’s searching for herself. But she never thought she’d find herself moving into the apartment of the man she’s spent the last year trying to forget.

Derek has secrets. An underground fighter who acts first and thinks later, he’s determined to keep that part of his life hidden. But when he’s forced to offer Sam—the girl he can’t stop thinking about—a place to live, his carefully constructed lies unravel.

Everything is stacked against them. Yet neither can walk away.
She’s seven years younger.
She’s his best friend’s little sister.
She has a boyfriend.

There are lines you don’t cross… and they’re about to obliterate them.

Jeannine Allison is an author of contemporary and New Adult romance. After waffling between many degrees in college, she finally graduated with a BA in English Literature from Arizona State University.

She loves writing and reading -- obviously :) -- but when she's not she enjoys playing with her two dogs, obsessing over new makeup, drinking coffee, googling new tattoos, and pretty much anything else that allows her to wear yoga pants and a sweatshirt ;)

5 ALL. THE. FEELS. STARS ❤❤❤
Honestly, I could not wait to get my hands on Sam and Derek’s story. I have thoroughly enjoyed the other books in this series, Unveiling Hope was no different. Sam is young, but not at all naïve. She has lived through some difficult transitions in life and has lost her way. She likes to make those around her happy and sometimes it comes at a cost…her happiness. How long do you continue to do what others expect of you and not do what you feel is right?!?! Sam needs to make some tough decisions and finding someone’s unwavering support is what she misses. Can she find that with Derek? Derek is no stranger to struggle and heartache. He’s so loving and supportive, yet his self-esteem took a hit at an early age. He’s holding back in life and doesn’t even realize it. He’s afraid to takes risks, afraid he is going to fail so his vulnerability shines through every turn of the pages. Derek doubts himself and tends to pull away from people and things in life before he can get hurt. It’s his defense mechanism, but once Sam enters his life again those negative feelings slowly start to shift. There is a tether pulling Sam and Derek to one another. They understand and value each other without judgment. They listen to one another and despite their age difference, connect on a level that neither has experienced before. Jeannine writes beautifully flawed characters that you have no choice but to fall in love with. Her stories are overflowing with heart, emotion, love, forgiveness, the list can go on and on. I know my heart will hurt and tears are inevitable, but I also know that Jeannine will put me back together with the best kind of TLC. She walks through this journey with us, I can feel the raw emotion she packs in the story. I feel my heart explode and I know hers does the same. That is writing that captures my attention, it’s honest and real. Jeannine truly has a way of making you feel the happiness, heartache and suffering her characters go through. If you are looking for an author that doesn’t stick to a standard mold, Unveiling Hope is the book for you. This is a delicious slow burn that I would gladly relive over and over again. It’s about what you feel in the heart when you read a love story, and Jeannine has filled mine up time and time again with her magical storytelling.

    Unveiling Hope was definitely worth the wait. Ever since I was introduced to Sam and Derek in Unveiling The Sky I knew their story was something special cause little tidbits about them were revealed in the other books in the series. Only adding more tension to their relationship. As a first time reader Unveiling Hope can easily be read as a standalone. Nothing is left out and the other characters relationships are explained. So just jump and enjoy Sam and Derek.

    Unveiling Hope oozes emotion from the get go. The prologue alone left me reeling and a little nervous about what’s to come. I’m pretty darn invested in Sam and Derek and the other characters from the Unveiling Universe so I had my expectations. Let me say the author Jeannine Allison delivers. Sam and Derek are characters that crawled under my skin and into my heart immediately. Their friendship especially how they comforted one another when they needed it was beautifully written. A certain scene where Derek sang to Sam had me unraveling cause the emotion was so poignant. That’s truly Jeannine Allison’s gift. She captures human interactions flawlessly and effortlessly. When Sam and Derek or any character for that matter speak or interact with one another they’re real and relatable.

    Sam and Derek have both experienced loss and run away from what they truly wanted. Because of fear and what other people want or expect of them. They finally take a chance and follow their heart. Their journey towards love and putting themselves out there was everything and so much more than I expected. I not only got their story but also more of the other characters from the Unveiling universe. I went through every emotion and with that ending I can honestly say that I’m on cloud nine now.
    The Unveiling series has come to an end and Jeannine Allison created the perfect ending. Not just for Derek and Sam but for everyone. These characters are fictional but to me they’re friends and that’s truly because of the wonderfully writing and storytelling from Jeannine Allison.

    Written in true Jeannine Allison fashion, Sam and Derek's love story was epically beautiful and heartbreaking. I am all for age gaps, quiet heroines who grow continuously, musician heroes, and steamy (also funny) moments 😈. You know those flutters you feel in your stomach when you see your crush for the first time? Unveiling Hope will deliver them! Get ready for your cheeks to hurt from smiling, and your eyes to tear up. This book was 🙌🏼 and I'm so sad knowing this is the end for this group of friends. But I'm excited for all future books written by this author! 💙

    Things Derek said that made me fall in love with him even more:

    “It wasn’t fair that the one person I’d wanted–when I’d spent my whole life never concerned about finding anyone–was a person I couldn’t have.”

    “She fit too perfectly in my arms. How could she ever fit in someone else’s?”

    “As sleep pulled me under, my last thought was…
    Mine.”

    “I want what he has.”

    “When I said I want you, I meant everything, Sam.”

    I also fell in love with all of these:

    “Having good things didn’t erase our regrets. It simply put them in a different light, allowed us to appreciate that, while we may have still wanted this or wished we’d done that, our lives were ultimately shaping up in a the way that was best for us.”

    “It seemed everyone around me was finding their place in life, and the person they were meant to experience it with. It wasn’t that I was unaware of what I wanted. In a perfect world I’d be creating music with Sam by my side. I knew what I wanted, but sometimes a person just wasn’t lucky enough to get what they desired.”

    “What’s a shadow without its person?”

    “Why do you play? Your mother may have signed up for piano lessons, but you stayed because you loved it. Why?”
    Music had been a saving grace to a dying soul.
    “For the same reason I loved reading fairy tales. It gives you a home when you have none, and a friend when you can’t find one. It makes me feel less alone. It brings people together in a way that little else can. It can bring you to your knees, or lift you up higher than you thought imaginable.”

    “I want to mess up your lipstick. To strip all your clothes and rake my hands through your hair until it looks like you just rolled out of bed.” Derek’s hand cupped my cheek. “I love you made up.” He grinned. “Because I love unmaking you.”

    And my ALL TIME FAVORITE!!!!:

    “Loving you was the only way this was going to end.”

    All books in this series can be read as standalones but I highly recommend reading them all (in order or whatever you feel like picking up first) to fully experience the amazingness of every couple.

    Reviewed in Germany on June 23, 2018

    It's easy to dive right into this story because we already know Sam and Derek. These two are a beautiful couple. Sam is a little bit insecure and Derek is short on self esteem, he thinks he's not enough for Sam and her love. Then there's the age difference and Sams older brother and his best friend Gabe. A lot of things against there love!? But they are both so beautiful and adorable and so in love with each other for years and they deserve a love like this. Both have their package to carry. Sam wants to please her father and she wants his love, for him to show some emotions after her mother died. She doesn't want to loose another parent. And Derek was always there for his sister and his mother but never had someone to look after him. They both love music, because of the connection to one of their parents, but don't want to do it professional, they only want to make music together. athey only want to be together. Their connection is palpable through the story.

    I love Jeannines books because her stories are emotional and there's always a HEA and she writes stories about "normal" people (no billionaires or millionaires or I don't know) and their struggles. She writes amazing characters and when I'm an adult I want to be like Derek because he's an exceptional person with the biggest heart on earth.

    Thank you for sharing your words with us. 😍

    Sam and Derek's story is finally here....Wow!
    Sam decided after her first year at Dartmouth that she did not like it...it was her Dad's decision she go there...having an already strained relationship with her Dad she went for him. She returns home leaving her boyfriend, another idea of her Dad's, with no 0lace to go because her Dad gets mad at her for deciding about not going back to school in the fall.
    She ends up moving in with Derek...this is a stand alone story but if you want back history you need to read "Unveiling the Sky" the first book in the series...you will not regret it...in fact you will run to get the others...
    This story is about love and heart break...and second chances. Jeannine Allison is amazing at pulling you into the story and making it feel like you are part of it (like being a watcher from the sidelines).
    An amazing story...I wish I could give it more than 5 stars

    I had been waiting for this couple and finally there story makes me feel.so fulfilled. I've been crazily in love with this series. Each and every book has made me feel.oh so deeply.
    So Derek right from the time sets his eyes on Sam has been a goner but things have never been in favour for them. He believes to be unworthy of her and yet can't stop thinking about her. Then she breaks him by walking away. Now it seems that he's been given another chance with Sam when she comes back to town and has nowhere to love.
    Sam on the other hand has always been a sweet girl. Yep she's been wanted Derek for so long but when she realised that he only sees her as a kid she decides moving is the only solution. Now though she's back and somehow things have again turned and brought her and Derek together but she has a boyfriend who treats her well and also she needs to get her life on track.

    Oh my God ,I know Derek has not being exactly forthcoming but really Sam just made me angry once I had to keep my kindle aside for some time but I love that sweet girl and I couldn't stay away from them both😉.
    Like every book this book was just OH so amazing in the way that it digs deep into you and you're feeling along the characters .
    Yep, Ms. Allison m in love with your stories and writing. Please keep.them coming up more. Can't wait for the next book by you. 💖💖💖💖💖
