Publisher's summary

Willa Doon has always been shy. Her quiet demeanor was something she's always embraced. That is until Jackson Page moves to town. The one man she desperately wants to take notice struggles to remember her name.

Year after year, Willa stands by, watching as the bartender/playboy drowns his demons in beer and sex. Then one night, he shows up at her door, suddenly aware that the girl he's seen around Lark Cove is now a beautiful woman.

Except what he doesn't remember is that this visit isn't his first. They spent a night together once before. A night he's forgotten, thanks to a bottle of tequila.

A night that crushed a timid girl's heart and set a broken man on the path to heal them both.

Loved It💕

Oh Jackson...my heart hurt for this man. His past was not easy and finally noticing Willa is exactly what he needed. This book will surely have you in all your feels.

Perfect Narration 🙌🏻

Really enjoyable listen!

I’m a big fan of Devney Perry. I think a big part of that is that her characters are so likable. I want to know what is going to happen to each of them. I want to hear about their adventures and how they fell in love and built a relationship.

This book is one of my favorites by her. Willa is a shy girl with a crush on a man who doesn’t know she exists. Jackson is a man with a difficult past. I enjoyed hearing about their relationship with each other and with each characters family. I like that this is not an insta-love, relationship built on physical attraction romance. I really appreciate the depth of the relationship, including all of the struggles. There is even a bit of mystery and adventure to add to the story.

Narration is great! Highly recommend!!

Timid

I adored Maxine Mitchell and Aaron Shedlock they're just so perfect together as a duo, maybe a duet would have been better but it was so good to hear them.

Amazing!!

This book has made me a Devney Perry fan! The connection between the main characters is 🔥🌶🌶🌶. Only negative is the weird cutesy sayings Willa says. It causes so much cringing at least in the audio book version.

GAH!!!

I absolutely loved this book!!!
Willa has loved Jackson since she was a teenager and one night he kisses her....but he forgot it happened!!
In most books there is usually so much push and pill, that it eventually becomes annoying!! Not this book. Willa is not a doormat, nor is she whiney and indecisive. Jackson comes off as a jerk, but it doesn't last and you can't hell but love him. Maxine Mitchell (whom I do not love) was awesome in this book, and Aaron Shedlock, well there are no words for his awesomeness! Everyone should read this!!!

Awww, Willa and Jackson!

Fantastic story of love and overcoming trauma with some deep themes regarding absentee, abusive parenting. Willa and Jackson could not have come from more opposite parenting backgrounds and it is the basis of a majority of their turmoil. There were some deeply emotional moments of “loving him through it” and others of standing your ground. Excellent !

Classic unrequited love story

Timid is book 2 in the Lark Cove series and it did not disappoint! We met Jackson and Willa separately in Tattered so I was excited to see how their story played out. We did get a glimpse at the beginning of their story in the first book as well and for me those unrequited loves just hit different 💕 To see how he ended up fighting for her was just perfection. Also the twist of everything at the end with his past created the best plot line for the second half of the book!

Ten stars

I so enjoyed this book. It is so well developed and the characters just become part of you as the story pulls you in. I am moving on to book three. The audible is fantastic. It adds so much to the story. I could listen to the voices all day! Enioy
