When Jessica Shea fears that her privacy is in danger, she takes the drastic step to leave her life behind and escape to the only person who’s never treated her like the movie star she is.

As they both work to trust each other and figure out just who her enemies are,they learn that love is never easy. They have to decide if the victory is worth the battle.
My Review:
Worth The Battle is book 4 in the Heaven Hills series. This one involves Jessica Shea and Layne O'Connor. I want to say I love the series and have been a fan since book one. But this book was not one of my favorites. There are a few reasons.
The first is that Jessica is a well known movie star and she is suppose to drop everything to be a part of the MC. Is she not that recognisable or do people not care? If I saw a celebrity in my town I would freak out. That's just me.
Second, the issue with Layne's PTSD. I think this could have been better addressed. It is so common to say that someone in the military has PTSD, but if you use the storyline you should embrace it. I felt that the author tiptoed on this one. The author has this medium that could have been used for educating others about it. I wish that she would have dove more into that storyline.
Does all this mean I hated the book? No. I am still a fan of the series. I just didn't love this one. I liked it. I enjoyed the fact that we got more Meredith and Tyler time. I hope that they get a novella in the future.
Mrs. Briscoe is an excellent writer and her books are entertaining. I love the fact that occasionally she'll bring some humor to the MC world. It doesn't need to be all dark.
I recommend this book but I suggest reading them in order. This is a 18 and over read.
