Blog Tour: Reason to Believe by Rebecca Yarros

 

“I’ll take them!” 

That’s what I tell the social worker when my pre-k student and his baby brother need an emergency foster placement. I’ll do anything to keep the brothers from being split up. But my apartment’s flooded and there’s only one house I can take them to on such short notice…his. 

Knox Daniels, my older brother’s best friend, offers his new place without hesitation. He’s not moving back to our tiny town until next month—that’s when all our hotshot firefighters are returning for their one and only chance to rebuild our fathers’ fallen, iconic crew.

 It doesn’t matter that I’ve been silently in love with Knox since we were kids. It can’t matter that we pretend that reckless prom night kiss never happened. It won’t matter that my feelings for him could destroy his lifelong friendship with my brother and threaten the certification of their hotshot crew. Because I’ll be out of his house long before he gets back.

 Except Knox just walked in…a month early. And the icing on this awkward cake? He’s gorgeous as always and I’m covered in baby puke. He takes one look at the boys and tells me we can make this work—

 We can temporarily fake a relationship to keep them from being separated by the system.
Suddenly, everything matters.

Reason to Believe is available for purchase:

For me, Reason to Believe was a long awaited, first full-length novel in the Legacy series. The little novellas Rebecca Yarros has been dropping here and there just have not done it for me! I can honestly say that this novel did anything but disappoint. Knox and Harper's story was not at all what I expected it to be. This is definitely not your typical dance around between two individuals, attracted to each other but separated by loyalties to a third-party brother/best friend. Knox has always been in love with Harper and his many years away has not changed that. In fact, moving back home to where his heart had stayed put only puts him back in a direct path with Harper. Brought together and bound by the tragic loss of their fathers, Harper and Knox only find themselves more entertwined as life throws yet another curveball their way. The pair rise up to the challenge, putting their hearts on the line and letting their love for two little boys go ahead of any agenda they may have had for themselves. I think their selflessness adds to the immense amount of emotions in this book. 

There is so much history right off the bat that your emotions are high right from the start of the story. If you want all the feels, you will not be disappointed. The feelings are all over the place. From the gut wrenching ultimatums to the rollercoaster ride of emotions while the pair navigate the foster system, Reason to Believe takes you for the wildest ride. If this is the start of the Legacy series, we're in for an intense ride.
