From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Hartmann comes a heartbreaking and empowering story of a boy rescued after he was kidnapped twenty-two years ago and the girl who never stopped loving him

"All these years, I've never given my heart to anyone…

The truth is, I didn't have a heart to give.

My heart was with a ghost."

To the rest of the world, he was the little boy who went missing on the Fourth of July. But to Sydney Neville, he was everything. Her heart hasn't been the same since her best friend disappeared, but she's learned to build her life around that missing piece.

Twenty-two years later, the last thing Sydney expects is for Oliver Lynch to return. Having been captive underground for decades, he's unfamiliar with the strange new world that awaits him—but he's alive. He's here. And no matter how he's changed, he and Sydney both still feel the connection that runs between them.

But as their reborn friendship begins to feel like something more, Sydney and Oliver realize there are still jagged, painful truths creating space between them. The walls Sydney's built don't want to come down, and as Oliver hunts for his missing memories and lost time, he realizes his nightmare is not yet over.

With nothing as it seems, is there space for love to bloom in this dark place?

Jennifer Hartmann

Jennifer Hartmann resides in northern Illinois with her devoted husband and three hooligans. When she is not writing angsty love stories, she is likely thinking about writing them.

She enjoys sunsets (because mornings are hard), bike riding, traveling, binging Buffy the Vampire Slayer reruns, and that time of day when coffee gets replaced by wine. Jennifer is a wedding photographer with her husband. She is also excellent at making puns and finding inappropriate humor in mundane situations. She loves tacos. She also really, really wants to pet your dog.

This is my first Jennifer Hartmann book, and I am so happy I received an ARC of Lotus! The author's narrative style was simply brilliant, luring me to unearth the beautiful relationship between childhood friends Sydney and Oliver, Oliver's subsequent kidnapping, and its long-term impact on Sydney.

I strongly suggest reviewing the trigger warnings, as multiple sensitive issues are covered.

Oliver's progression and character development were emotional, while Sydney slowly grew on me. Both characters had to face their fears before finding their way to one another. The slow burn element beautifully progresses throughout the book amidst well-written supporting characters. The final reveal tugged my heartstrings, and yes, I did get teary-eyed towards the end.

I look forward to reading more from the author. Thank you, NetGalley & Bloom Books, for providing an ARC. This honest review is left voluntarily.
