⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review

I have yet to read a book by Isla Vaughn that I have not liked. To this point I have read every novel in the Hidden Valley Elite Series and I am absolutely in love. Cruel Love picked up after being left on a cliffhanger in Cruel Hate which wraps up the story of Phoenix and Aspen. There has been an accident that takes Phoenix’s memories. When he wakes up he thinks he is 14 again. Aspen so desperately wants to tell him she is pregnant with their baby and that he is in college but she doesn’t want to distract Phoenix from his progress of getting better. When things go south she has to tell him everything.

I admire Phoenix’s determination to become strong and to never give up his dreams despite his accident. I admire his determination to be a better dad than he ever had in his life no matter the situation that got him there. After reading Cruel Hate I was worried that Phoenix and Aspen would not have a chance at love, that this would turn into a single parent situation. Cruel Love absolutely proved me wrong. I highly suggest not only this novel, Cruel Love, but this entire series to anyone who enjoys reading romance novels full of love, determination, and devotion.
