Beauty from Surrender: Jack Henry and Laurelyn's Story (The Beauty Series Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Georgia Cates (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 2,939 ratings

The Beauty Series has been optioned for film by PASSIONFLIX!

How do you move on when he’s every song you sing?

After Laurelyn Prescott walks away from the love of her life, she returns to Nashville to pursue the only dream she has left. Determined to find a distraction from the pain of losing Jack Henry, she immerses herself in her music. But with her old life comes old acquaintances and new expectations. When Laurelyn refuses her record producer’s outrageous demands, she finds herself without a career—until an unforeseen opportunity presents itself. From there it’s a rocket ride straight to the top where Laurelyn finds the success she’s always dreamed of. Will it be enough to bring her the happiness she so deserves, or will the absence of Jack Henry leave her wanting more?

Jack Henry McLachlan never expected to fall in love with Laurelyn Prescott—but he did. After he foolishly let her slip through his fingers, he spends three months searching for her, but their reunion doesn’t come easy. The woman he finds isn’t the same one who drifted away without a goodbye. No longer an insecure girl on an Australian adventure, this Laurelyn is a successful musician with a promising career. Her dreams are becoming a reality, and Jack is terrified his American girl won’t have a place for him in her new life.

With only a month to convince her otherwise, will it be enough time to make her visualize a life beyond the glitz and glamour, a life that includes him?

    4.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed this book

    I thought the book was good and listened to it on audio as well.
    The Australian accent was fake and not quite right (I'm an Aussie) but it didn't matter - it's a fiction book and he can talk any way he wants to

    I like Jake Henry in this story and I think that is what keeps me reading. I hate how much Australian slang is in this story, it is so over the top. I also don't like how the characters think something and then go and do it. It feels like you are reading the story twice.

    I thought this story might get better, but it isn't. There is nothing wrong with idea and intention of this story, and the characters are good, but the delivery is just so slow and laborious ... it is disappointing.

    Tout comme le premier tome, je me suis laissée portée par cette suite tout aussi délicieuse.
    Il reste cependant moins bon que le premier tome.

    This was a beautiful love story. So romantic and the storyline was original and absolutely wonderful! I loved both Laurelyn and Jack Henry. The story had enough drama to make it gut-wrenching but not so much that it was annoying. I would love to see this story continue and am glad to see that there is a third part coming....can't wait!!!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Narrativa sem fôlego
    Reviewed in Brazil on 29 June 2014

    Em "Beauty from Surrender", continuamos a acompanhar o romance entre Laurelyn e Jack Henry a partir do ponto onde "Beauty from Pain" terminou: com os dois separados. Neste livro, Jack envida vários esforços para localizar sua "american girl", enquanto Laurelyn tenta superar a dor da separação e concentra sua energia em sua carreira. Quando Jack encontra a garota, ela está se firmando como uma cantora de sucesso e não sabe se deve abrir mão de tudo - carreira, família, independência - para viver esse grande amor. Agora é o australiano que deve provar a ela que seu amor é verdadeiro.

    Georgia Cates é uma boa escritora, e Jack Henry e Laurelyn são ótimos personagens, mas nada disso consegue sobreviver quando a narrativa não tem fôlego. Georgia Cates exagera nas cenas de sexo para dar mais volume ao livro, mas isso não engana o leitor mais experiente, que percebe esse artifício como uma forma de camuflar um enredo curto. Se "Beauty from Surrender" tivesse 100 páginas a menos, seria perfeito, pois concentraria-se apenas na trama principal e as cenas mais picantes estariam lá apenas para cumprirem seu papel de apimentar a história.

    Há um terceiro livro na agulha para ser lançado - "Beauty from Love" - afinal é o que manda a cartilha de "50 tons de cinza", mas, para mim, "Beauty from Surrender" encerra a história de Jack Henry e Laurelyn. Poderia ter sido bem melhor, certamente, mas valeu a leitura pelos personagens.
