Being Known {Review}


Being Known is the story of Jennalyn, a mother of two grieving the loss of her own mom.  Her husband, Joel, is struggling to balance family and a start up business, leaving Jennalyn lost in a sea of emotions.  An unexpected encounter with an old flame also has her feeling confused and vulnerable.  Although committed to her marriage, Jennalyn finds her heart quickly entangled.  Can Joel and Jennalyn find their way back to each other before it's too late?

The second book in the Haven Makers series, Being Known follows the group of five women... supporting each other through the ups and downs of life.  Unlike the first book (Becoming Us), this book follows the life of a new character.  The other four women have storylines in this book as well, but all are secondary to Jennalyn and Joel's life, allowing the reader to know them better.  Their struggle and emotions feel authentic, and it's easy to fall in love with the characters.

My biggest struggle with Being Known is that the issues are too easily resolved.  Although Jennalyn's struggle with her emotions is very real, once she and Jowl communicate these issues seem to melt away almost too nicely.  Being Known is a nice light read for a relaxing weekend.
