Walk Beside Me (Walk series Book 2) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 381 ratings

When Tess was forced to leave town, she vowed never to return. That meant no Finn and no Finn meant a life filled with heartache. It wasn’t her choice, but what in her life has been? Tess was never one to believe in fairytales while growing up, and her past has only confirmed her skepticism.

With a baby on the way and her family needing her, Tess has no choice but to go back to the small town she never thought she’d have to step foot in again. She has been gone for six months and a lot can happen in that time. Tess is slapped with this reality just when she thinks life couldn't get any more complicated.

This is Tess and Finn's ending...but will it be a happy one? Will Tess finally believe fairytales exist?

    A perfect ending to Tessa & Finn's story!!

    I don't want to give away any spoilers, but awesome job HJ Bellus, you could not have ended their story any better than you did. I absolutely adored these characters and their story is one of love, heartbreak, angst, hope and pure joy that only love can bring!

    I've read the "that girl series - 3 novels" and the "walk series". Thoroughly enjoyed all five books. I encourage everyone to checkout any of her books. All characters are fully brought to life. I would love to see more books from the "that girls series". More stories to be told. Thanks for being a great writer.

    -- From the Cover --
    When Tess was forced to leave town, she vowed never to return. That meant no Finn and no Finn meant a life filled with heartache. It wasn’t her choice, but what in her life has been? Tess was never one to believe in fairytales while growing up, and her past has only confirmed her skepticism.
    With a baby on the way and her family needing her, Tess has no choice but to go back to the small town she never thought she’d have to step foot in again. She has been gone for six months and a lot can happen in that time. Tess is slapped with this reality just when she thinks life couldn't get any more complicated.
    This is Tess and Finn's ending...but will it be a happy one? Will Tess finally believe fairytales exist?

    -- My Thoughts --
    Novella, under 100 pages.
    It's been six months since Finn's father ran Tess out of town. Now, seven months pregnant, she's returned to town with only two goals: attend granddaddy's funeral and see her niece or nephew be born. Then she plans to leave town again before Finn's father can act upon the threats he'd made against her loved ones. But things are not that simple. The closing scene of WALK ME DOWN overlaps with the opening scene of WALK BESIDE ME, providing a seamless continuance of the story. The characters are the same as before, only several circumstances have shifted or altered. Dialogue is believable, interaction is natural. HJ Bellus writes in a style that flows extremely smooth, making the pages fly by like nothing. It's a very pleasurable experience. The plot is pretty good, for being so short. While it has plenty of dynamics to carry it, it lacks the fullness of a full-length novel. Several aspects of the conflicting elements were predictable, but it wasn't until moments before the reveal that I knew what was going to happen (My Opinion: Blech! LOL)! This finale novella closes Finn's and Tessa's story off with solidly. I enjoyed this 2-piece set rather well.

    This was a bit of a let down. Both book 1 and 2 are super quick reads and do give you angst, love, comedy and just about every emotion, but unfortunately this book seems to be in a hurry to end and could have been a lot better if the last 2 chapters were a bit more developed and thought out. I was able to figure out most of the book by the 3rd chapter.
    If you are looking for a quick read then this series is fine. There isn't anything wrong with it, it's just not one of my favs.

    I wish I could give this 10 stars! I loved it and could not put it down. It was amazing it and instantly grabbed my attention. Happily ever afters don't always come easily and this story had quite a few ups and downs for being a novella. I hope there is more to come about Finn and Tess-uh!

    This book was fun to read. Like all the drama.. How can one father do to his son like Finn father did. So glad he was found out.

    Reviewed in Australia on January 16, 2015
    So I finished the book walk me down and it ended right where the first book left off and it was full of drama but the way Finn was seeing Tess for the first time after 6 months was a bit lack lustre I wanted fireworks I got fizzle and Scarlett's reaction to Tess's return was ridiculous I understand why she was mad but she was so full of hate for Tess it was horrible definitely not a true friend in my book I also think Wes was a fool forgiving her just saying Tommie and Will were there same forgiving loving selves Finns dad and the evil ex kara were hard at work plotting and managed to keep Tess and Finn apart for most of the book until there scheming ways were found out that was a good juicy bit of drama and then we have a HEA the writing in this book was a bit better too

    To say that the family washing was aired in this book is a massive understatement there are plenty of confessions going on here. Finn and Kara are all tight his dad is happy her family happier but poor Tess get to lick her wounds further. It's all up in the air with lots of twists and turns. Great conclusion
