Amazon Reviewer

Izzy
My life is not like I dreamed it would be. I had the foolish fantasy of finishing high school, going to college, making something of myself- maybe even becoming famous.
Instead, I'm the infamous kid of the father who killed himself in the family's backyard.
How's that for a legacy?

Renée
I came home for my mother's funeral, but I'm staying to mend bridges with my sister. We have another chance, and whatever it takes, we need to come together as a family or live the rest of our lives knowing we let our brother down.
They say pride goes before a fall, but it doesn't tell us how to avoid the scrapes along the way.

Finding Me is a new adult romance dealing with tragedy, restitution, and love in all its aspects. The story relates to sensitive topics that may be triggering for some readers.

Jacquie Biggar is an award-winning author of romance who has been listed on USA Today's bestseller list. Her writing is centered around tough, alpha male characters who fall for strong and independent contemporary women. She resides on Vancouver Island with her husband and would love to hear from readers worldwide!

In her own words:

"My name is Jacquie Biggar. When I'm not being a klutz, I'm a wife, a mother of one, a grandmother, and a butler to my calico cat. One of my guilty pleasures is watching reality TV shows such as The Voice and Amazing Race. Every Monday night, you can find me laughing at the judge's shenanigans as I'm plastered to my armchair. I love hanging out with my husband at the beach, taking pictures, and reading romance novels (what else?). I have a slight obsession with Tim Hortons, enjoy gardening, everything pink, and talking to my friends."

The characters shine!

Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024

Jacquie Biggar takes her reader on an emotional roller coaster of family dynamics, romantic entanglements, misunderstandings, buried feelings, and forgiveness. She doesn’t hold back but places her characters under a microscope, digging deep into the core of what makes them tick. At the heart of this touching story is the relationship between sisters Izzy and Rene, struggling through estrangement after the death of their mother. Buried deeper in the past is the shocking suicide of their father, a tragic event that upended the lives of both sisters and their younger brother, Ben.

In addition to the two leads, strong supporting characters come into play (I’m a huge fan of Jay!), all twined together in an emotional nest that had me alternately grinding my teeth in frustration and other times sniffling with heartache. Told in first person POV from the viewpoint of several central characters, the writing flows effortlessly, rolling from the pages with authentic voice for each.

This is a poignant novella with a beautiful finish that speaks to the strength of family, belief in others and the power of love.

Progress and Setbacks Abound

In this second book in the Defiant Sisters Series, we see Izzy and Renee dealing with their mother's funeral, worries about their little brother and trying to work through their tenuous relationship.
I love the growth I see in both girls. They both have strong walls to break through and in this story, we get glimpses of how close they were at one time, growing up. Will they ever completely mend their fences?
Another big aspect of this story is the budding relationship between Izzy and Jay. There is no question about their love for each other, but so many secrets, unsaid things and miscommunications thwart their progress at every turn.
If you are a fan of family drama with a touch of romance, you will love this entire series. I do suggest you start with the first book, The Sister Pact, to get the background. However, I do feel this book works well as a standalone. It is well-written and engaging and I read it in one sitting.

Relatable and engaging family drama

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2024

In this character-driven sequel to Letting Go, author Jacquie Biggar brings the three siblings of the Thomas family together to heal their past devastation. The haunting memory of their father’s suicide rests heavily on each of their shoulders. Years have passed, but the scars remain fresh.

As the story evolves, threads of forgiveness emerge. Old hurts are aired and slowly, a tenuous trust is formed between the siblings and among their friends. Earlier loves resurface and by the end of the story, we celebrate the promise of new beginnings.

Biggar’s approach to capturing this family drama is novel and effective. Written in the first person from multiple points of view, the book reads much like a movie in which readers/viewers feel each character’s emotions. I highly recommend the story!

A family torn apart and sewn back together with love!

Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024

“Finding Me” continues the story of Izzy, Renee, and Benjamin. Their father killed himself in the backyard years before and Renee left. Izzy stepped up and helped her mother and brother, putting all her dreams and youth on hold. When the mother passes, Renee finally comes home but not to a warm welcome. Both sisters continue to grow and learn, and it is easy to follow along through both of their perspectives. Renee finally sets her roots down at home but still has a long way to go with her relationship with her sister and boyfriend, Simon, while Izzy hangs on to her anger and grief, pushing everyone away. There is a brokenness that needs to be fixed on many levels, but also a dash of hope that is weaved so skillfully into this family story. I appreciated how Jay’s story slowly unfolded through his point of view. He quickly became a favorite character to root for, along with the sisters. There are some tough mental health topics covered, including suicide and self-harming, but it also shows how love can bring people together in unexpected ways. This was a book that was impossible to put down and I read it in one sitting. I’d love to see more from this family, especially the little brother, Benjamin. I highly recommend this.

Once again Ms. Biggar delivers

Renee and Izzy were as close as sibs could be till their father killed himself and Renee took off, leaving Izzy to take care of their younger brother and deal with the heartbreak of desertion from the person she trusted most in the entire world. Now Renee has come home to heal the breach. She’s determined to stay, and make a life for her and her family, even if Izzy is trying her best to run her off with hurtful words and lack of trust.
FINDING ME touches on the raw subjects of suicide and abandonment with the delicacy of feeling we have come to expect from the author. Ms. Biggar is a master at putting her finger on the pulse of acerbated emotion and she tips the scales with this tale. Her worldbuilding adds another layer to the rich fabric of this story that draws the reader in. Once again Ms. Biggar has delivered.
Her fans will devour this latest offering. And for those who have never read her, I’m sure they too will be polishing off this story at breakneck speed. A must read for those that love new adult romance.
