Ilustration To Books Just One Thing (Cupid Falls #2)
“Sometimes, you find yourself inadvertently in the dark. But I’d discovered that if you stopped fighting against it and just stood still, sometimes something marvelous comes along.”
Artist Lexie McCain spends her days literally weaving the story of her life into a gorgeous tapestry. But on Monday nights, she walks to the Corner Bar, drinks a Killian’s, and answers the same question every week from Sam the bartender: “One thing?” She starts with her name, then her cottage, slowly moving on to the devastating tragedies that tore her life apart.
Sam Corner’s smile doesn’t seem to hide any pain. One night, Lexie turns the tables on him, asking Sam, “One thing?” To her surprise, Sam reveals his own tragic history. Together, Lexie and Sam learn that, with good beer and a trusted friend, sharing just “one thing” might lead to the one thing they both thought was lost forever: love.
From award-winning author Holly Jacobs comes the story of heartache, hope, and the power of sharing just one thing.

And yes, it ends on a good note!About the audiobook... Beautifully narrated by Laurel Merlington! I could feel Lexie's heartache, Sam's understanding, kindness, and his own pain, through her voice.

An intriguing read.I loved the way this story unfolded, "one thing" at a time, enjoyed the way it was told (between present day and flashback). Couldn't wait to read on to find out more about Lexie and Sam's pasts and felt I got to know the characters very well by the end. Shall definitely read another by Holly Jacobs.
A good lesson for all who live life.Having recently supported a daughter who has lost 2 dear friends to tragedy at ages 21 and 22, this gave me a way to see the pain and the beauty of their young lives ended too soon. The message is timeless and healing. Don't let one thing define you. Beautifully written with compassion and lack of judgement.
A must readEach page was like peeling off a layer and learning more about not only Lexi but Sam as well. When I wasn't reading I found myself thinking about what would happen next. The characters are real and you feel what they are going through. I'll definitely read this one again
Ms. Jacobs' writing is strong and sure and I enjoyed being inside the world she created with it. She knows how to make her characters both sympathetic and complex, and I was glued to the page to see how they were going to navigate their many troubles. And their troubles are legion indeed. I appreciated the gargantuan task Ms. Jacobs took on with her depiction of Lexie's grief. And I fell head over heels immediately for Lexie and Sam and their simple game in the bar each Monday. How could I not?
TerrificWow. This is , of course, a romance. But more (much more) than that, it's a story of two damaged people finding their way through all the things that have made them who they are. I had to pause more than once to dry my eyes and blow my nose: the joys and pains that are the stories of Lexi and Sam have that much impact because the characters are so relatable.
