Revived: Emerson Falls, Book 4 Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 201 ratings

Being a single dad is not what I signed up for, but when my wife died unexpectedly just after our son was born, his upbringing became my number one priority, and I shut off the rest of the world, including any interest in women.

My mother helped take care of Grayson while I worked, but when she broke her hip, I was suddenly without childcare—and in desperate need of a nanny.

Rachel Zanetti befriended my son over feeding ducks at a pond, and before I knew it, she was moving in with me and my kid, much to the delight of my friends who actually knew her.

Little did I know that hiring the first woman I found attractive since my late wife would flip over my world and my heart as it learned to beat to the idea of someone new.

But grief is a fickle thing, and I struggled with the guilt of moving on, even though every fiber of my body wanted to be connected to every piece of Rachel’s.

And my son fell for her just as hard as I did.

The question is, do I guard my heart from the risk of losing another person that I love?

Or will I be able to let my first love go to make room for this woman who is reviving me one day at a time?

Beautifully Broken
This book was a masterpiece in emotional, heartbreaking, second chance romance. Luke lost his wife in a horrific car crash when his son was 3 months old. A piece of him understandably died that day with his wife. Five years later, his aging parents can longer care for Grayson full time while Luke works...enter Rachel. We met Rachel in Book 3, Captivated, as Piper's best friend from New York. The meet cute with Rachel and Luke's son Grayson gave me all the warm fuzzy feelings. She immediately falls for Grayson and Luke, following his gut, hires her to be his live in Nanny. Luke and Rachel are immediately drawn to each other, carefully navigating this scary new relationship. The way Harlow James writes Luke's conflicted inner thoughts and guilt is so painful but also relatable. His conversations with is sister are also beautiful and honest. As Luke and Rachel's love story unfolds, at the perfect pace I might add, both Luke and Rachel's inner conflicts and struggles reach their tipping point when they realize how much they love each other but are unsure if they can move past Luke's fear and apprehension. The scene where his wife gives him the sign that he CAN and SHOULD move on, broke my heart but also pieced it back together at the same time. Luke are Rachel were destined to be together and this painful, emotional, relatable, second chance love story is perfection. I loved everything about this book and these characters. Harlow James writes incredible prologues and epilogues too. The ending to this beautiful story had me crying happy tears and the epilogue was pure perfection. This book is easily one of the best books I've read in 2020 and is one of those stories that will stay in the back of my mind because it was so powerfully emotional, relatable and perfect. Harlow's writing and pacing of this story was perfect and I wouldn't change a thing.

    Harlow James has given us a lot in the Emerson Falls Series...enemies to lovers, forbidden romance, reformed bad boys and lots of delicious drama. And now in Revived she has given us a gut-wrenchingly emotional story about loss, moving on and second chances. I promise you that this book will have you wiping tears away as Harlow brings ALL the emotions with this book. ⁣

    Luke is a widower and single dad. He is not really living life but doing the best he can to cope with the heartache of the tragic & sudden way he lost his wife while raising his son the best he can. An unexpected situation forces Luke to hire a nanny. Rachel is light and everything good. She loves with her whole heart. Luke did not expect Rachel...not the way she takes such loving care of his son, not the way she fits into their lives and definitely not the way she makes him feel. But is Luke strong enough to move on from his loss or will his fears make him lose Rachel? ⁣

    This story is emotional. The battle Luke has with himself is heartbreaking. His fight between loving again and feeling like he is betraying his wife will rip open your heart. The sadness Rachel feels knowing she might not ever have his heart is gut wrenching. I cried multiple times reading this story. ⁣

    We see a lot of the characters from the prior books which I love as we get to see where they are today. We get the most adorable little boy, Grayson, and his obsession with the human body. We get steam, passion, fear, anger, sadness, hope and ultimately the beautiful fight for a second chance at a HEA. It’s really hard earned in this book...Luke is battling himself and they both also fighting for each other. It is a beautiful thing to read. ⁣

    Each book in this series just keeps getting better and better. Harlow really knows how to write emotions and make the reader feel those emotions. She also knows how to bring the passion and chemistry by giving us those steamy scenes we all want. Overall, this book is everything you could want in a romance and I would highly recommend. 5++++ stars from me. ⁣

    I received an ARC in exchange for my honest opinion. ⁣

    I’m very torn about this book. (This review may contain spoilers). It was good. Very well written. I really liked Rachel (although at times I felt like she was a doormat). I loved Grayson (Luke’s son). He was hilarious. My problem is is with Luke. Honestly I felt like he was a self absorbed jerk so much throughout this book. He was constantly giving Rachel mixed signals. I kind of hated that she spent so much of this book waiting for him to “come around “. Things between them seemed to move painfully slow because Luke was so wishy washy.. and not ready. She was so patient with him. She was amazing with his son. Grayson adored her. Luke’s family adored her. He supposedly loved her. Yet he still held back and would hurt her because he still didn’t know if he could move on. (It’s been 5 years since his wife died). Things come to a head and Rachel calls him out on it and he’s downright brutal to her. At that point I was so fed up with him, I didn’t even want them to get back together. I wanted some great guy to swoop in and treat her like she deserved to be treated. Anyway, he comes around, but i don’t know.. he just seemed so obsessed with his late wife. I know that sounds insensitive but I just felt like Rachel deserved more.

    This book hit me smack dab in my feels. From beginning to end, Harlow James managed to evoke every type of emotion out of me while I was reading this one.

    Luke lost his wife in a terrible accident 5 years ago. He’s still broken but pushing on in order to raise their child. He wasn’t looking for anything more than a nanny, but when he meets Rachel, all bets are off. Rachel is funny and has a heart of gold, and best of all she loves Luke’s son Grayson like he was her own. The one question Luke Keeps asking himself, does he have it in him to love again?

    Rachel moved to Emerson Falls to be closer to one of her best friends, and to find what her purpose is. Her meeting with Luke and Grayson is anything but ordinary, but it turns into a job that she loves. She quickly falls in love with Grayson, and no matter how hard she tries, she’s falling for Luke too. The problem is Luke is locked up like a vault. Rachel can see a difference in the man she met to the man Luke is now, but is that enough?

    Luke’s book is one I have been so excited to read, and Harlow James did not disappoint. Reading about the accident and what that did to Luke had me in tears, the ugly kind. This book is a rollercoaster of emotions, but it’s a beautiful story about a second chance at love. Harlow handled this sensitive topic in an amazing way. I feel like Luke and Rachel’s story played out in the best way possible. They are hands down my favorite Emerson Falls couple and the Emerson Falls series gets better than I could have imagined with every book that gets released!

    Oh my heart! This book hit me right in the heart and gave me all the feels. From the very first page I was instantly drawn into Luke and Rachel's story and I couldn't put this book down. Luke has dealt with a loss that no one should ever have to face and moving on and picking up the pieces has been hard and devastating for him. When Rachel walks into his life, his world is literally turned upside down and I thoroughly enjoyed Luke's journey to his happy ending. This story has so much heart and soul in it, the story is captivating and keeps your attention from start to finish, the characters are relatable and such a joy to read about and don't get me started on Grayson! This kid, will literally melt your heart! If you are a fan of small town romances, single parent romances and heartfelt romances that will stay with you for years to come, then this book is for you!
