Convicted was an awesome read, about Joss & Ren! This story will suck you into their journey of sadness, heartbreak and happiness with some secrets on both sides! Fantastic ending! A must read!
Convicted by Kristi Pelton is a standalone contemporary romance told in mostly dual POV between Joss and Ren, with an occasional chapter from secondary characters, this story is emotional, tragic, heartwarming, and sexy.
Joss witnesses the worst thing ever and in protection and reaction does something that has him facing jail time. A stroke of luck places him at a ranch to work off his time versus spending it behind prison walls. It's at the ranch that he meets Ren. The ranch owners daughter and an enigma. He shouldn't want her - he has no right - and it's too soon, but he wants her.
Ren has separated herself from the ranch and only spends the holidays there (summer and winter) since her parents divorce. Returning for her last summer before college, she encounters a resident in the pool house who will change her life, irrevocably.
Well-written an enjoyable - I was shocked and intrigued in turns. With the backstory of Joss and his brothers, their home life, the accident and all the events that spiraled out from there. Enjoy!
Convicted is a standalone story that is told from several POV’s that I lost count at 4; this story gives you raw emotion heartbreak and the purist of loves and I knew all of this by the end of chapter 7.
Joss is your ultimate bad boy; he has a record and doesn’t hesitate when someone he loves is put in the line of danger which leads him to an 18-month sentence on a farm. When he is pulled into the web that is the owner daughter Ren he can’t stay away; his protective side coming out in full force.
When lines are crossed and incorrect information is given Joss is taken away from the world he has fallen in love with. Fighting for what he wants he is left with some questions that he needs answers to ASAP; hoping that they will lead to the HEA he deserves.
Pelton is a new to me author and I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story; I could not put it down devouring it in 1 sitting. I look forward to more from this author and hopefully Joss’s brothers in the future.
I absolutely loved this book, I really enjoyed it. I loved Joss and Ren, they worked so well together and had some wicked chemistry. I loved the storyline

I'm not a huge review person but after this book I knew I was going to do one. I just finished reading this today. I sent two messages to the author at two different times saying.....WHAT .... JUST HAPPENED! There were times I was roughing up my kindle where I thought the punches should have given out accordingly. Then to the smiles and sometimes tears with each page turned, where in my mind I was right with them.
This story about love and pain and grief for so many in this book to second chances with new beginnings, with the hope of love and new understandings. With every page this author makes feel this story whether you want to or not she just sucks you right in.

If ever you are looking for the ultimate second chance read, look no further than Convicted.
Joss Hess has been dealt one bad hand after another in life. When unforeseen tragedy strikes, another bad hand is dealt. As Lady Luck finally makes an appearance, Joss not only gets a second chance at life but at love as well.
Kristi Pelton does an amazing job at weaving tragedy and hope throughout the story. Convicted is a beautiful story of love, loss, and redemption that will have you hooked from page one.
New to me authir and while I found the heroine slightly spoiled rich girl, the hero was completely relatable. However, it's a romance novel and realistic isn't necessarily the option. That said, the writing style was fantastic, the plot well thought out, plenty of tugs on the heartstrings. Solid 4 star read.
This book has so many emotions.I cried for Joss and Abbey it broke my heart.I fell in love with Joss and Ren. Kristi writing is amazing,if you haven't read any of her books grab them now.
