4.5 Star Review by Jen Skewes
Wow!! Mandi Beck has done it again. If I made a list of my top anticipated reads of this year Love Burns would be very high up on that list. I have been patiently waiting for this one since I read the very last page of Love Burns. I needed more of Deacon Love in my life. I needed to know what would happen next and how and if Deacon and Frankie would get their happily ever after. And Ms. Beck did not disappoint at all. She gave me everything I could have wanted and more.
Love Hurts left us with a cliffhanger. Someone from Frankie’s past shows up leaving us to wonder what the heck happens next. Love Burns picks up exactly where we left off. It’s a race to see what happens next. Will Frankie be ok? Can Deacon save her? But most of all will they be together and happy in the end? I don’t want to go into any more detail about this book because saying too much will give it all away. This is Deacon and Frankie’s journey to finding their happily ever after that they both deserve after so many years of loving each other. It is not an easy road for them at all with many, many bumps along the way. But the love that thee two have for each other should be enough to get them through it all.
Deacon Love oh how I loved that man but at the same time he knows how to piss me off. Did he make mistakes? Absolutely! Did I forgive him for them? Absolutely. When Deacon loves, he loves with his whole heart. Frankie is his life, his world, his anchor. She is the only woman he has loved and will ever love. She has his whole heart. The moments when he fought, when he protected her, loved her and made me swoon, for me personally outweighed the mistakes that he made along the way. There was never a doubt that this man loved that girl with everything he had.
I loved Frankie. She is one feisty woman who knows how to fight for what she loves. She is a bad ass chick who loves Deacon more than anything. But that love for him also scares the shit out of her. But she knows that he is it for her. I think in parts of this book it was Frankie's turn to fight for him. And she is a fighter.
As I mentioned early the road to happiness for Deacon and Frankie has many obstacles standing in their way. And I am talking some major bumps in the road. At times I was unsure where they would end up or how they would move past them. There was drama, and angst and some heartache as well. There were times when I wanted to curse Ms. Beck for breaking my heart. At one moment I was at my son’s hockey practice and as I was reading I realized that I needed to shut my iphone off and go home and finish reading in the comfort of my own home because there were just too many emotions running through me. I felt EVERYTHING with these characters. The hurt, the pain but most of all the love. They have a love that is so intense and so deep and so so real that you cannot help but feel it with them. I was rooting for them all the way. I needed them to be happy, because they deserved it. Because if any two people loved each other enough to get through anything it was them.
Love Burns was such an amazing read. It was nothing of what I expected. And honestly I am not 100% sure what it was that I was expecting. But this one took me by surprise. I think it took a direction once or twice or maybe three times that completely surprised me. And I mean that in a really good way. The twist and turns were something that I never saw coming. and I loved every minute of those twists ands turns. I laughed, smiled, cried and hurt with these characters. I fell in love with Frankie and Deacon and hated to see their story end. But despite the fact that Ms. Beck completely wrecked me at times, breaking my heart in pieces, she managed to pick them all up and put them back together. Leaving me with a big smile in the end. This was the perfect conclusion to a beautiful hard fought love story between Deacon and Frankie. Amazing, amazing read!!

Mandi Beck has been an avid reader all of her life. A deep love for books always had her jotting down little stories on napkins, notebooks, and her hand. As an adult she was further submerged into the book world through book clubs and the epicness of social media. It was then that she graduated to writing her stories on her phone and then finally on a proper computer.
A nursing student, mother to two rambunctious and somewhat rotten boys, and stepmom to two great girls away at college, she shares her time with her husband in Chicago where she was born and raised. Mandi is a diehard hockey fan and blames the Blackhawks when her deadlines are not met.
Love Hurts is her debut novel and she is currently working on the next in the series along with whatever other voices are clamoring for attention in her mind.
