We love a story about realizing we deserve better and Hannah Tate, Beyond Repair is heartwarming. It’s perfect for those who want a story about fixer uppers and self-worth. Keep reading this book review of Hannah Tate, Beyond Repair for my full thoughts.
Summary
Hannah Tate can hardly believe her sleep-deprived eyes when she finds an engagement ring hidden in the closet. Killian, her super responsible, incredibly attractive boyfriend—and the father of her new baby, Bowie—is finally going to propose. But a romantic night out goes horribly wrong when Killian reveals he’s dumping Hannah, not proposing.
Furious and heartbroken, Hannah takes Bowie and moves in with her mama and stepdaddy in the mountains of Blue Ridge, Georgia. Hannah realizes that her parents’ cabin has vacation property gold written all over it—and could save her mama from going broke. Again.
Only problem? The cabin’s décor is . . . mildly terrifying and it’s in desperate need of renovation. Hannah hires the hot carpenter living in the treehouse next door to fix up the place. Not only does River respect Hannah’s business acumen, he looks at her like she’s a woman, not a hot mess. And Hannah can’t deny that River awakens something new inside her.
Can Hannah embrace a future that looks different from the picture-perfect family she once dreamed of . . . and maybe start living life on her own terms?
Review
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
From the beginning I was in love with Hannah Tate. As someone who feels like her life is slightly out of control, I emphasized with Hannah. With her feeling like somewhere along the way things ended up somewhere else. That her life had changed into something she never expected. So it was a love affair with Hannah In Hannah Tate, Beyond Repair we immediately are on her side as she has to figure out who she will be in the ashes of what she thought.
Through the course of Hannah Tate, Beyond Repair Hannah discovers her passions, a sense of community, and a new possible love – herself? She has to fall in love with what she always thought of as being impossible to repair, that we are a disaster. It’s almost like reading two romance stories in one. We can think so much about what we think we need, that what happens when we find it? When we find what we need but didn’t expect?

Hannah Tate, Beyond Repair is about realizing we have to be vulnerable with the people we love. We have to allow them to see through to us and to potentially take a weight off our back. It’s not about asking someone to change, making the love conditional on change. It’s about asking someone to vulnerable, to trust, to open our heart.
