Sometimes in our lives, we face hard decisions, leading us to weigh our options. Do we go along with settling for the greater good or choose ourselves? Can we live with the consequences? This book explored themes like deceit, selfishness, resilience, manipulation, and more. Heather did a fantastic job with the plot and development of the story. I loved the witty and sarcastic nature of John's character. The book was also laced with humor that I laughed so much."Edith Wairimu for Readers' Favorite"Courage Johnathan follows Johnathan and Caroline's tumultuous relationship and marriage. It includes important lessons about courage and authenticity. Despite his initial hesitation to make changes in his life and his later financial strain, Johnathan works to build a decent life for himself and his new family. The novel contains many interesting turns. From the onset, Caroline and Johnathan's relationship encounters many challenges. Both are flawed characters which makes their story convincing. I liked that the supporting characters are also well developed. Some surprises occur in the end as Johnathan learns dark secrets about his family and a close friend of the family."Christian Sia for Readers' Favorite"Courage Johnathan by Heather Nadine Lenz is an explosive contemporary romance with well-developed characters and a plot that is tightly written and twisty. When his family makes it clear that he either chooses between his fiancée and his trust fund and business, Jonathan is faced with the biggest challenge of his life. Luxury and wealth are the fruits of hard work and he deserves every bit of it. But continuing with his marriage to the woman who made it feel like electricity when he embraced her the first time they met also means living without that wealth. He knows well that, "Money can't buy love and love can't make money." It is the moment to choose between Caroline, the woman from California, or the trust fund and business. How will he choose?"Pikasho Deka or Readers' Favorite"A heartwarming tale of love, sacrifice, and finding one's self-worth, Courage Johnathan is riveting to read from start to finish. Johnathan and Caroline seem well fleshed-out and that makes them easy to relate to. Having read Heather Nadine Lenz's previous book Courage Caroline, I appreciated the character of Johnathan Arrozzini getting further explored and delving deep into his complicated relationship with his family. I also enjoyed the character of Mark, who shines in every single scene he is in. The narrative flowed in an organic fashion that made it smooth to read and the dialogue felt crisp and concise. I thoroughly enjoyed Courage Johnathan, and I would recommend it to readers who crave well-written slice-of-life romance stories."
