Book Review: My Way Home by Ellison Lane

Thank you to @hazels_booktours and the author, @ellisonlaneauthor for the chance to read this book in exchange for my #honestreview. This is available now on #kindleunlimited.

After spending many years avoiding her dad, Reese Dixon is tasked with spending her summer between high school and college with him in rural Mosaic Grove, WI. She’s forced to leave behind her glamorous life in Malibu, her rockstar mom, Jetta Rose, and her alter ego Johnna Rose in exchange for helping out with her dad’s construction empire in the Midwest. Before long, Reese has developed a short but intense relationship with her dad’s right hand man, Shamus Samuelson. When things blow up after a fight with Shamus over a club appearance for Johnna Rose, Reese does the only thing she can think of and bolts back home. Ten years later, Reese is called back to Mosaic Grove and is forced to reconcile the past and decide what she wants her future to be.


This book delivers a real one-two punch to the heart. I will warn that there are jumps/lapses in the book that aren’t stated with a label at a chapter head so it can be slightly confusing but given the length of time the book spans I understand the need. This is an excellent book to pull for if you need a good cry - very emotional. This sounds bizarre but this is a mashup of Hannah Montana meets The Notebook. I recommend for those looking for a long game, closed door romance with a big payoff.


TW: abandonment, kidnapping, drugging, stalking, loss of a loved one, health issue of a loved one (message me if you need specifics on this please)


⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 - 3.5/5
