I recommend Reminders of Him to those who love fictional stories surrounding love, loss, tragic mistakes and forgiveness. He struggles with protecting those he loves, the little girl he loves as his own and coming to terms with what he thought he knew about Kenna and that tragic night to the woman before him who bares her soul.

He is loyal, loving, but not without flaws. I loved Ledger despite some things he did and said. It allows the listener/reader to reflect on judgment and our own actions. Even to this day, they are still judged for that one moment. I know people who have made tragic mistakes or missteps and know firsthand how they suffered and survived. Hoover makes your heart bleed for her as we get to know her, and what she went through. I felt her loneliness, desperateness and willingness to do the right thing for her daughter.

The pain, loss and guilt she carries are so heavy. I loved Kenna from her determination to her letter writing. Here she meets Ledger Ward and the two connect before she discovers he has a relationship with Kenna’s daughter and ties to her tragic past. When she heads to the bookstore, she once had happy memories. Kenna is hoping to reconnect with her four-year-old daughter. I laughed, cried, held my breath, and once again found myself in awe of Hoover’s writing. The tale that unfolds pulled me in emotionally and held me until that last page. Here she hopes to reconnect with the only positive thing left from that night. The story begins as Kenna Rowan returns to the town where a tragic mistake caused her to spend five years in prison. Narrated by Brittany Pressley and Ryan West, I settled in with a glass of wine and some chocolate truffles to listen to Reminders of Him. Kenna must find a way to absolve the mistakes of her past in order to build a future out of hope and healing. The two form a connection despite the pressure surrounding them, but as their romance grows, so does the risk. But if anyone were to discover how Ledger is slowly becoming an important part of Kenna’s life, both would risk losing the trust of everyone important to them. The only person who hasn’t closed the door on her completely is Ledger Ward, a local bar owner and one of the few remaining links to Kenna’s daughter. Everyone in her daughter’s life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. A troubled young mother yearns for a shot at redemption in this heartbreaking yet hopeful story from #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover.Īfter serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake, Kenna Rowan returns to the town where it all went wrong, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter.
