Since You've Been Gone (Restoring Heritage, #3) by Tari Faris

 


Leah Williams is back in the quaint town of Heritage, Michigan, and ready to try again to make her business a success. But blank slates are hard to come by, and a piece of her past is waiting for her there. Heir to the Heritage Fruits company, Jonathan Kensington is the guy who not only made Leah's past difficult, he also seems determined to complicate her present as well.

Jon is trying to prove to the Heritage Fruits board that he, not his manipulative uncle, should be running the business. The board insists Jon find a new owner for the building that will house Leah's business. To avoid forcing a buyout of Leah's part of the building, Jon strikes a compromise with Leah, and the two go into business together. With her vision and his know-how, it might work. And Leah might realize he's loved her since high school. If only he didn't keep on shooting himself in the foot by boxing her out of important decisions.

Sparks fly in this romantic story of two people who must learn to trust both each other and the one who called them to this journey.

About The Author


I have been writing fiction for more than twelve years. It has been an exciting journey for this math-loving-dyslexic girl. I had read less than a handful of novels by the time I graduated from college and I thought I would end up in the field of science or math. But God had other plans and I wouldn't trade this journey for anything. As someone told me once, God's plans may not be easy, and they may not always make sense but they are never boring.​

When I am not writing or working, I spend time with my amazing husband. We have been married for fifteen wonderful years and have three sweet children. In my free time, I love coffee, rock hounding with my husband and kids, and distracting myself from housework.

I love to hear from readers. You can connect with me at my website at www.tarifaris.com

 

My Review


This is the third and final book in this series, and while the books build on each other, the author does a great job of updating us.

My heart broke for poor Madison, and the life she has led, and the assumptions that others made.

We are given hurting individuals, Jon and Abby have lost their parents, and Leah's mom has passed away, but will she ever get over her father's leaving?

Will Leah's business ever get off the ground? Will Jon ever assert himself in the family business? Most of all will these hurting individuals see what is right in front of them?

Small towns do tend to dabble in other peoples personal business and assumptions are made, but updates are revealed and there are surprises. We don't always know what goes on behind closed doors.

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.
