They can pretend they’re fine…
Moving to NYC is supposed to be the fresh start Kristy Andrews so desperately needs, but she can't seem to shake the after-effects of having been kidnapped last year.
Detective Jackson Reed never meant to kill an innocent man, but knowing that doesn’t change the guilt he lives with every single day.
But they can’t hide forever…
When Kristy and Jackson meet, the connection is instantaneous, but neither is ready to open up about their pasts. Can love and trust conquer their demons?
In order to have a future, they’ll have to face their past…
When Kristy starts receiving threatening messages, her anxiety kicks into overdrive, but the last thing she wants is Jackson worrying about her.
Jackson may doubt his ability to return to active duty, but he has no doubts about his instincts concerning Kristy. Someone is trying to hurt her, and he refuses to let that happen, even if it means going back to work; something he wasn’t sure he’d do.
As the threats increase, Jackson shows Kristy that strength doesn’t mean facing her fears alone, and Kristy shows Jackson that forgiveness starts from within. Can they save each other before it’s too late? Or will the past come back to haunt them?

Jaded Love Mending Hearts Series Book 2 edition by Kara Leigh Miller Jody Holford Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
This is the second book in the Mending Hearts series by Kara Leigh Miller and Jody Holford.
Kristy Andrews survived being kidnapped last year by an evil politician who wanted to kill her best friend, Alessa. She’s from Chicago but moved to New York City to be closer to Alessa and Alessa’s friends. Kristy doesn’t like to ask for help but it’s clear to her friends she’s not fine. She meets a handsome, moody stranger at the church she goes to and their connection is immediate.
NYPD Detective Jackson Reed attends group therapy sessions at the church because he accidently killed a criminal/informant in the line of duty. Though it was all an accident, he feels overwhelming guilt. He’s distant from everyone who matters to him and he took a leave of absence from his job.
Kristy and Jackson fit well together. Though neither of them is looking for a relationship, it just sort of happens between them and they help heal one another. When Kristy starts to receive threatening messages, Jackson’s instincts kick into gear.
While I liked the story, a few typos and inconsistencies with the first book stuck out at me. For example, the church in book 1 is Serenity Community Church and in book two it’s First Avenue Church. Maybe Pastor Ethan changed the name of the church in the year that separates the two books but I don’t think I read about that.
Anyway, I really liked Jackson and I understood his pain. I understood Kristy’s, too, but I couldn’t connect with her. She was in denial about the death threats and didn’t take the trouble she was in seriously. In my opinion, she put herself in needless danger.
I don’t read Inspirational books often but I enjoyed the scenes at the church because the main people involved are truly good, non-judgmental people (Alessa, Josh, Amanda, and Ethan). The story felt a little preachy at times but it didn’t distract from my enjoyment.
This is a sweet, romantic story about two people who needed help to move on with their lives. A lesson can definitely be learned from this book no matter the darkness you endure, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel but sometimes you just have to search for it.

Authors Kara Leigh Miller and Jody Holford have once again pleased their fans with Jaded Love, the second novel in their Mending Heart series. In the harsh yet exciting streets of New York City, Kristy Andrews and Jackson Reed are strangers with little in common other than a desperate need for normalcy after experiencing traumatic events that control all aspects of their lives.
Kristy fights with her fearful emotions and crippling shyness brought on by a brutal kidnapping that forever changes her naïve view of the world. The reader can easily associate with Kristy, rooting for a change in her life to overcome this form of post-traumatic stress disorder that victims like her often experience after a violent crime.
Jackson Reed must also deal with his own guilt and trauma after accidentally shooting the wrong man while on duty with the NYPD as a detective.
Kristy and Jackson’s chance meeting starts a chain of events that begins with love at first sight and ends with life and death struggles that the two reluctant lovers must overcome to save themselves.
Miller and Holford have done an excellent job following the tried and true story arc of storytelling in Jaded Love with first an event that changes the protagonists’ lives, then escalating trouble to test their mettle, and finally, a satisfying and dramatic resolution at the end.
The authors could have written Jaded Love as just a well-told love story between two damaged characters who need each other and God to help with their struggles, but as an added treat to the readers, Miller and Holford have thrown several monkey wrenches into the narrative, which threaten to not only disrupt Kristy and Jackson’s love but also their lives and careers. One sub plot involves the shady dealings of a corrupt pharmaceutical company that threatens tragic circumstances for our protagonists and throw twists to the story that will leave readers literally on the edge of their seats.
All in all, Jaded Love is a well-written and excellent follow-up to their debut novel, Dangerous Love, and highly recommended.
None
I thought there was good romantic tension and a solid element of suspense. I would recommend this book to others.
The unrealistic romance. The mystery part was interesting, but fell flat because there wasn't space to truly explore and develop what was occuring. Most of the story was taken up with a romance that doesn't reflect reality in any way. I just couldn't get past how quickly these two people jumped into a serious relationship with someone they had met.
Another winner! I love a troubled hero, and Jackson was perfection because he is such a good guy. Kristy was a happy and fun character despite what happened to her, and I really related to that. Kristy and Jackson are both trying to get over past trauma, and it was interesting to see each do so in their own way. I love seeing their relationship grow. The plot was intriguing and kept my attention the entire time. I plan on looking for more books by this author!
