Hope Restored (Gallagher Brothers Book 3)

Oh my gosh !! Love love the Montgomery's. Murphy has had cancer and it's now back. He needs someone to take care of him and Tessa is his friend and confidant. Tessa has always crushed on Murphy and now they are roommates. Will they find each other through the sickness and doubts they have. Great read. I was gifted an advance reader copy and I loved it

I voluntarily read & reviewed this Advanced Readers Copy of this story. Carrie Ann Ryan has written another smash hit with this story. The characters go through so much and it really pulls at your heartstrings. I really enjoyed this story and cannot wait until the next book this author puts out so I can read that too.

I absolutely love this book. Seems we have been waiting forever for Murphy to get his happy ever after. Had me worried there at the beginning of the book. I know the series had to end but I didn't want it too. Can not wait for the next book from Carrie Ann Ryan. You will not be disappointed with any of her books

What an awesome, emotional read this was to wrap up the series. I laughed, but I cried, big fat ugly tears...in more than one place. But it was so worth it. The Gallagher guys and their women will stay with me for a long time.

Tessa and Murphy are my new favorite couple!!!! I love that they were friends before they became a couple.They both have been through a lot Murphy with cancer twice and Tessa with her ex. Another great read by Carrie Ann Ryan!!! I received a ARC copy of this book.

Murphy Gallagher, the youngest of the Gallagher siblings learned at an early age that life wasn't easy. He went through Cancer twice and survived, he lost his parents and his childhood but through it all he had his brothers Jake (INK ENDURING), Graham (LOVE RESTORED) & Owen (PASSION RESTORED).

He'd been cancer free for years and hoped he'd become the man he family would be proud of. He was an architect in the family's construction and restoration company. Yet he found himself facing the unknown when he got sick again. Murphy knew how short life was and he was ready to fight for what he wanted, come what may.

Tessa Stone whom we met in Passion Restored was best-friend's with Murphy's sister-in-law, Liz. She worked as an administrator at the hospital. She was a hard working woman who played just as hard. Tessa lived in the present instead of looking back at the past. She became friends with Murphy Gallagher.

When he fell sick again, she feared she wouldn't know what to do if she ever lost him. Murphy's life was turned upside down in a spare of few days, he found himself moving in with the woman who'd been haunting his dreams for a while. Because of some unforeseen circumstances.

As they spend more time together, Murphy's feelings for Tessa changed from friendship to something more and vice versa. The change in their relationship scared her a little which was understandable but Murph made sure she knew she was loved and cherished.

Tessa's past came back to destroy her life in the form of an abused ex-boyfriend. What the man didn't expect was for her to have someone in her life who were ready to defend and protect her from him.

Loved the bond between Murphy and his niece Rowan. Not to mention the dynamic between the Gallagher brothers. There was nothing more important to them than their loved ones. To see them found LOVE after so many heartaches was alluring.

The unexpected twists and turns in the book was well done. Murph meeting up with an old friend and reestablishing a relationship with him felt like life came full circle.

HOPE RESTORED was breathtaking, heartwarming, funny and intriguing. It's the third and finale book in Carrie Ann Ryan's GALLAGHER BROTHERS series. Loved this series from the first book and to see it end the way it did was a delightful treat.

Carrie Ann Ryan never cease to amaze me with her talent. She brought us such incredible and flawed characters that stole my heart away. 5++++

I received this book in advance for an honest review - That wasn't hard - I loved this book. In fact, I've read it twice already. Murphy was such a great character. He's had some tough hurdles, but that doesn't stop him from living. When he loses his apartment lease, he ends up moving in with Tessa (who he has had a crush on and vice versa). He had kept them in the friends only box until he decided he needed to change that. A really good story with romance, laughs, a few tears and a villain. What more could you want. This is firmly in my read again pile.

Hope Restored I think is my favorite of the Gallagher books! Murphy is the youngest brother. His life has been hard fought and this book is a reminder to live life yo the fullest, its not always easy but to never take for granted each day.

Tessa Stone is a sassy woman, loved her! She has overcome a lot inner life and now feels like she might have a chance at her happily ever after.

This book will have you laughing and crying, it was awesome!!

Third book in the series tells Murphy and Tessa's story. They've been good friends for a long time and were always joking and flirting but neither had crossed the lines. Then Murphy learns his cancer is back and that his landlords are moving back and he's out of an apartment. Liz and Tessa had shared a house but now Liz is marrying Murp's brother and has moved next door. Murph becomes Tessa's roommate and the chemistry between them grows. Fantastic story!

Loved listening to Hope Restored, narrated by Gregory Salinas. Wonderful love story of 2 people overcoming illness and abuse to find a best friend relationship that turned into the loves of each other's lives. This book had all of the feels that a great story could ever have. I volunteered an honest review for this Audible book

I have been a fan of the Gallagher brother's since book one.I was thrilled to see that although this is the end of this series that they would likely make guest appearances in the Montgomery Ink Series❤️.

Loved catching up with the previous couples. If you haven't read this yet, I highly recommend you one click it now.

Absolutely loved this book!! Murphy and Tessa were amazing!! The story about them is a page turner!! Murphy is the youngest Gallagher whom hasn't found his soulmate yet and really doesn't care if he does anytime soon. Tessa Stone is adjusting to living alone since her bestie Liz found her soulmate in Owen Gallagher. Tessa has no plans on settling down but enjoys playing the field but lately she's seeing one guy Brent but everyone refers to him as boring but he's nice and a good guy so she's sticking it out hoping feelings will bloom.

However because their worlds are now intertwined Murphy and Tessa can't seem to avoid each other and they enjoy flirting with each other but it's harmless fun and nothing more. They are just friends but each day their attraction seems to grow a bit more and fate has a way of throwing curveballs to both of them, changing both their lives in ways they never thought it would.

This book was amazing and wonderful, I enjoyed every page of the book all the highs and lows all the curveballs it left me happy and sad and desiring more. Another great book by Carrie Ann Ryan!! Sad to see the Gallagher's come to a conclusion but it was an amazing series.

This is the 3rd book in the offshoot series about the Gallagher brothers and it is definitely the one I have been waiting for. Murphy always came across as this happy go lucky man in the previous books, and he truly is because of what he went through as a child and teen. He learned the hard way that you have to live life to it's fullest because it's so easy to lose it. Tessa is the best friend of Liz from the second book. Her and Murphy have always flirted but never took it any farther than that because they didn't want to ruin their friendship and make things weird. But then Murphy has his world rocked and needs a place to stay. Tessa has the room and lets him move in as her roommate. Now that they are forced into close proximity, the sparks fly! I loved this book! Tessa and Murphy are perfect for each other and they made me laugh. And then you throw in what is going on with Murphy, and that will break your heart. At one point I was crying over what happens. And then when Tessa has something from her past crop up? It just pulled everything together for me! I loved every part of this book and am so glad it lived up to my expectations! I'm sorry to see this part of it end but I know I will see them again in other off shoots!

This is the third and final book in the Gallagher brothers trilogy, and Wow! I've always loved a friends to lovers romance, but Murphy and Tessa really are such an amazing couple. This entire series has been full of feelings for me, but Hope Restored had me in tears from the beginning. I think I went through every emotion imaginable with this book. Sadness, fear, joy, terror. That, to me, is the mark of a great book. When you experience real emotions, along with a true feeling of getting to know the characters. And I couldn't help but feel like the characters were real in this book. Ms. Ryan always has amazingly strong characters in her books, but Murphy has been battling cancer his entire life, and still has an awesome outlook and a happy disposition. Even when he is afraid or upset or exhausted, he still has that personality that makes you want to be around him. And Tessa! A true friend, loyal and loving to everyone. For her to jump into the relationship with Murphy. It's just pure beauty! Another amazing story from Carrie Ann Ryan!

Hope restored by Carrie Ann Ryan is absolutely amazing and great ending to the Gallagher brothers trilogy. Murphy was just as sweet and flirty as I was hoping for and tessa truly is his perfect match, her sass and wit plus hard work and dedication make her someone I want to be when I grow up. This pair scorch up the page and the sheets. Carrie Ann Ryan's dedication to her craft really shines through in this story, and since becoming a fan a few years ago she keeps getting better and better with her storytelling. 10/10 would definitely recommend for anyone, even if you haven't read a word of her before, all the Gallagher brothers books are standalone as well.

Of all of the Gallagher brothers, Murphy was my favorite. I enjoyed his light and fun personality even in a time of personal crisis. I also enjoyed Tessa as a character for her caring personality and dedication to others but the pair together were an amazing pair even during a time of sadness and crisis. The plot of the story moved along well, having me hooked from the beginning. I enjoyed the return of the characters from the previous Gallagher brothers books as well as their strong family bond even in crisis. I loved this book from page one and would recommend it to others.

What a ride! I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book. I try to buy every book Carrie Ann Ryan puts out and this latest one did not disappoint. Murphy is the youngest Gallagher brother who has fought hard to stand on his own without his family hovering over him. Tessa is the best friend of Liz who is marrying Owen, the third brother in the family. She constantly looks forward to avoid facing the past. When they take their friendship to the next level, they are immediately confronted by someone from Tessa's past. All while battling an old nemesis of Murphy's. Loved every page of this book.

Beautiful book, Murphy is the youngest boy and has had cancer twice as a youngster, now it's back again, his life is tipped upside down when on top of everything he has to find a new place, Tessa one of his best friends is cornered into offering her spare room and so starts the fight to hold back the attraction they have for one another. I voluntarily review an advanced readers copy.

This book was amazing!!! It made me laugh, cry and also cheer. Tessa and Murphy had chemistry that was off the charts, however you knew early on that they were so much more. My heart was shattered for their loss yet like Tessa, the relief was guilt producing. The Gallaghers are an amazing family and their hearts continue to expand with every addition. Well Done Ms. Ryan, well done!!!!!
