I loved this second chance/ secret baby romance! Chris and Grace’s story was amazing! They get their second chance, but they have communication problems。 Being snowed in together they had a chance to get closer。 Will they be able to start over or will their past get in the way? Soldier’s Secret Baby is a sweet, heart touching story! I loved it!

Chris,
Soldiers Secret Baby is the first book by Clara Pines that I have read。 I was intrigued by the description and was in the mood for a holiday romance and this book didn’t disappoint。 Grace Cassidy and her eighteen month old daughter, Izzy are back in Trinity Falls when a snowstorm has them stuck at the lovely inn in town。 The problem, Chris Bell is also stuck at the inn and boy is he in for a surprise。 Grace and Chris have history and now that they are both stuck together for a bit, they are goin Soldiers Secret Baby is the first book by Clara Pines that I have read。 I was intrigued by the description and was in the mood for a holiday romance and this book didn’t disappoint。 Grace Cassidy and her eighteen month old daughter, Izzy are back in Trinity Falls when a snowstorm has them stuck at the lovely inn in town。 The problem, Chris Bell is also stuck at the inn and boy is he in for a surprise。 Grace and Chris have history and now that they are both stuck together for a bit, they are going to have to face their past, work through their misunderstandings, confess their secrets and maybe then they will finally have a chance at the happily ever after both of their hearts have always wanted。 。。。more

Such a sweet and delightful second chance at romance story。 Chris and Grace were both relatable and likable characters and I found it easy to get drawn into their journey。 It’s a journey filled with emotions, misunderstandings, miscommunications, forgiveness, and love。 Really enjoyable read。
Sassy Southern,
This was a sweet, wonderful second chance at romance story。 I really enjoyed the characters and the storyline and could feel the chemistry between Chris and Grace。 There were several moments of miscommunication that kept these two from realizing that they are truly meant for each other。 Grace is trying to protect not only herself, but her daughter as well, from heartbreak and Chris is trying not to let anyone know that he has been injured and views his hearing loss as a weakness he needs to hide This was a sweet, wonderful second chance at romance story。 I really enjoyed the characters and the storyline and could feel the chemistry between Chris and Grace。 There were several moments of miscommunication that kept these two from realizing that they are truly meant for each other。 Grace is trying to protect not only herself, but her daughter as well, from heartbreak and Chris is trying not to let anyone know that he has been injured and views his hearing loss as a weakness he needs to hide。Will Christmas magic do its thing and bring these two back together?

4 Star review Soldier's Secret Baby (Trinity Falls Sweet Romance #2) by Clara PinesIt was wonderful to be back in Trinity Falls to watch Chris Bell get his second chance at love with the woman who stole is heart and he has never stopped loving Grace。I love stories set around the holidays and Soldier’s Secret Baby ticked a number of boxes for me。 From the first chapter I was drawn to single mum Grace and her adorable little girl Izzy’s story。 Being offered the chance to live in her aunt and uncle 4 Star review Soldier's Secret Baby (Trinity Falls Sweet Romance #2) by Clara PinesIt was wonderful to be back in Trinity Falls to watch Chris Bell get his second chance at love with the woman who stole is heart and he has never stopped loving Grace。I love stories set around the holidays and Soldier’s Secret Baby ticked a number of boxes for me。 From the first chapter I was drawn to single mum Grace and her adorable little girl Izzy’s story。 Being offered the chance to live in her aunt and uncles cabin, she is disappointed to learn it has been damaged and needs to be repaired before she can move in so she is staying at the Trinity Falls bed and breakfast until the repairs are done。Imagine her surprise when Chris arrives at the B & B to stay; she had no idea that he was home on leave。 What Grace doesn't know is that Chris has been medically discharged and after suffering severe hearing loss in one ear。 Chris has a lot of bitterness and anger after all Grace disappeared two years ago without a word leaving his heart broken。 What Chris didn’t know was that she broker he own heart as well and was pregnant, a miracle in itself and she didn’t want to stop him from following his dreams。There was a fair amount of miss communication in this story that was a tad frustrating at times。 However once they finally started listening to one another and not jumping to conclusions it was heart warming to watch their love re kindle and in doing so create the family they both wanted so badly。 。。。more

OH WOW, when Ms。 Pines says her books are sweet romance, let me tell you they are so much more。 Simply Delightful just doesn’t seem like enough。 Soldier’s Secret Baby will melt your heart, having you smiling from ear to ear and reading every Holiday season for years to come (at least I know I will)。 It’s a story of starting life over, 2nd chances, the value of family, friends (both new and old) and of course romance。 You can’t ask for much more and Ms。 Pines delivers it all with storyline and ch OH WOW, when Ms。 Pines says her books are sweet romance, let me tell you they are so much more。 Simply Delightful just doesn’t seem like enough。 Soldier’s Secret Baby will melt your heart, having you smiling from ear to ear and reading every Holiday season for years to come (at least I know I will)。 It’s a story of starting life over, 2nd chances, the value of family, friends (both new and old) and of course romance。 You can’t ask for much more and Ms。 Pines delivers it all with storyline and characters that are believable and true to life。 I Highly Recommend grabbing this story up (along with book1 of the series, Cowboy’s Christmas Nanny, if you haven’t read it)。 You don’t have to read it first; but both are so swoon worthy that I would suggest you do so。 2 Thumbs Up and 5 Stars 。。。more
Sheila Schoenauer,
What a beautiful sweet read。 I love when two people get the second chance they never thought they'd have。 This story centers around Chris and Grace。 Two lovers who had a bit of miscommunication。 If they had only been truthful and talked to each other their separation wouldn't have happened。 But I also think the separation helped them grow。 I was curious about Chris's military background and kind of wish that had been more established。 I think it would have helped me understand their relationship What a beautiful sweet read。 I love when two people get the second chance they never thought they'd have。 This story centers around Chris and Grace。 Two lovers who had a bit of miscommunication。 If they had only been truthful and talked to each other their separation wouldn't have happened。 But I also think the separation helped them grow。 I was curious about Chris's military background and kind of wish that had been more established。 I think it would have helped me understand their relationship a bit more。 Was he only in for 2 years? Was he on leave when the two of them finally got together? They weren't 18 because he's best friends with Shane and in the first book we learn that Shane has a 13 year old。 I truly enjoyed this story。 It was wholesome, sweet, and a beautiful Christmas read。*I voluntarily read an advanced copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review* 。。。more

Desiree,
This was a very sweet second chance, secret baby read! This was an enjoyable feel good read。 Baby Izzy was adorable as was the dog Molly。 Chris and Grace were very sweet together, with their past you would think there would be more drama, however they were very grown up about the situation。 They both had secrets, but sharing them made their burdens less。 Really good holiday read, I love this town and the people in it!!
