I've been on a second-chance romance kick lately so when I was given the chance to read this one, I jumped on it.
Ten years prior, Cole had purposefully broken Frankie's heart. She didn't know why he did what he did, but it caused her to run away from their hometown and abandon her family to hide from the pain she still wasn't over. But when a family emergency brings her back home, she's forced to face why she left and how to reconcile the past from the present.
I wanted to love this story. It was obvious these two still harbored deep feelings for the other, but I couldn't understand with those feeling why they let 10 years go by. Frankie's hurt made sense, but to fall so quickly back into those feelings just let me wonder why'd they wait.
Fans of Rebecca Shea will love this book, but my questioning of why took away from the reconnection to fully enjoy the essence of the story.
