Eternal Hope (The Hope Series #2) by Frankie Rose Blog Tour Stop

FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO THANK FRANKIE ROSE FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE A TOUR HOST FOR ETERNAL HOPE. I AM SO HONORED THAT I AM THE FIRST STOP FOR THIS TOUR BECAUSE I FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS SERIES FROM THE FIRST PAGE OF SOVEREIGN HOPE. I LOVE DANIEL AND KAYDEN LIKE THEY WERE MY OWN. OLIVER AND TESS ARE WHAT TRUE FRIENDSHIP AND BROTHERHOOD IS ABOUT. THIS SERIES WILL KNOCK YOU OFF YOU FEET WITH ALL THE ACTION AND ROMANCE HAPPENING IN IT. 
He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me

When your friends go missing and you don’t know if they’re dead or alive; when you tie your soul to the one you love; when you kill to protect and your family suffers, there’s only one thing you can do:

Move to Montana.

Farley Hope is special. She was prophesied to kill the forebears of her bloodline- a race of cold-blooded Reavers, men who steal the souls of the living to gain power. The Quorum had counted on Farley ending her own life in the process, but when Kayden came to her aid and helped save both her and Daniel, he undid their plans. Now the Quorum are displeased, not only with Kayden, but with Farley and Daniel too. Though her father is now dead, Farley’s troubles with the Reavers are far from over. An ancient Immortal, trapped for a thousand years, wants Farley for himself, and he will stop at nothing to claim her.

With secrets that lead to anger and pain, that turn friendship to dust, the group must overcome the problems within their own circle before they have a hope of fighting off the powers that threaten their lives.

MY REVIEW

5 OF 5 ETERNAL HOPE

Where to start with this review....

OMG I just have to say that I absolutely love The Hope Series! The author has done an excellent job of weaving a story that captures you right from the beginning. Eternal Hope starts off right where Sovereign Hope ended. Daniel and Farley have killed Farley's father and brothers with the help of Kayden. They are trying to see if they can find their friends who fought with them and try and find Agatha. Farley is so torn up about losing Aldan that she can't stand to think she has lost Agatha to. So Daniel tells her they are going to follow a lead and see if they can find Agatha.

Once Daniel has the plans solid he and Farley and Tess and Oliver go off to the place where they think they will find answers. Only when they get there they find more than answers. Farley is thrown a curve ball with Daniel and his past and what she is told and what she sees will break her heart. She will have to decide what her feelings are for Daniel and whether or not they are worth it. She will meet some people who are angry and have secrets of their own that they are keeping and when the truth comes out to Farley she will have to decide who to trust and who not to trust.

As if that is not the worst of it Kayden helped them and they help him in return only to find out that the Quorum wants Kayden back. My heart bleed and I cried when I read about Kayden. I really do love him as a character and he really does deserve a second chance because he made a mistake and he has been paying for that mistake all this time. Kayden lives with the shame and the guilt and pain of what he has done and he is ready to move on. But will Daniel forgive him?

Poor Daniel has not had very good luck with communication and he does not know how to tell Farley how he is feeling. He is about to lose her and he knows it but he still can't face the past to move on to the future. Daniel has a good heart but he better get to stepping up to the plate or someone else will take that plate for him. He is so desperate to find Agatha to that he sometimes forgets about Farley. That is until she starts having her visions again and passing out. He is angry with himself because he can't help her when she is having these episodes.

One thing is for sure there is an evil presence that is lurking and waiting to kill Farley. He wants Farley and will stop at nothing to get her. He is an ancient immortal and he is reeking havoc in Farley and Daniels life. What will happen to Farley? Will she be taken by this evil immortal? What will happen with Kayden? Will the Quorum still continue to punish him? What will Daniel do? What is he willing to sacrifice?

This is an epic sequel to this series and I need book three already! Lord I can't wait to read it!
As a child, I was always accused of being bookish because I wore glasses- big, horrible, ugly ones with too-thick lenses. Those kids, the super smart ones who always know which tender insecurities to poke at in order to provoke
life-long complexes, used to accuse me of reading too many books and that my eyes were going to rot out of my head (their words, not mine!)

The truth of the matter was a little more embarrassing: I used to sit too close to the T.V. That was the reason why I had to wear glasses, but kids don’t really care about small, insignificant details like the truth, and so I was labelled a nerd. The label kinda stuck, and after some sage advice from my awesome nana (nana, you rock!) I decided that if I was going to be abused for my supposed literary obsession, I might as well develop one.

I guess that’s how I got into books and reading at an early age. Since then, I’ve been ripping through books like they’re going out of fashion, which, thankfully, they’re not. Good thing, too, because I’m a writer now, and books are my business!

Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me on my journey- look for your names in the acknowledgements! And a big thank you to you, the reader. I hope you’ve fallen in love with Farley and Daniel just like I have, and that you’ll join them in the next book, Eternal Hope!
