Reviewed by Kim Roller
Posted May 7, 2019

Jada Brooks and Maddox Richardson were high school sweethearts who were torn apart after a terrible accident changed their lives thirteen years ago. They both have just moved back to Silver Spring - Maddox is starting a youth outreach program similar to the one that helped him over the years, and Jada is back to be with her family after the death of her father. Their love and attraction are as strong as it was back in high school. But when they begin to get close again, the past comes back in a big way... Will Jada's guilt and lies come between them? Can they overcome the past to find the true love and passion that they had all those years ago is still there?

Brenda Novak writes a compelling and captivating story of pain, forgiveness, and overcoming guilt to discover happiness in UNFORGETTABLE YOU. There's even a reference to another one of her characters and series, which was a nice surprise. I've been a big fan of Novak's since her Dundee and Evelyn Talbot series, and Silver Springs is no different. Her books are always emotional and heartfelt reads.

SUMMARY

New York Times bestselling author Brenda Novak returns to Silver Springs, where no past mistake is so big the heart can’t find a way to fix it. Jada Brooks couldn’t have known how her life would change when she fell for bad boy Maddox Richardson back in high school. She couldn’t have known his troubled brother would leave hers forever crippled. Or that she’d be forced to shun Maddox completely—only to discover she was carrying his child. Although Maddox was devastated by the events that transpired that fateful night, losing Jada was the worst of it. He’s back in Silver Springs, ready to make amends and provide the kind of youth outreach that once saved him. If he’d known Jada was in town, too, he would never have come. Jada has returned to Silver Springs to be with family after her father’s death. But when she sees Maddox, every tough decision she’s made concerning their now twelve-year-old daughter begins to haunt her. Falling for him again is so tempting, but not only does she stand to alienate her family—if he finds out about Maya, she could lose what matters most.
