He never thought he’d see her again!

After being reported missing, presumed dead, globe-hopping photojournalist Mitch Simmons never thought he’d see his estranged wife, Zoe, again. Yet here he is back in their coastal Florida town, where Zoe is mayor. Turns out she isn’t the only one he left behind.

Discovering he has a baby son awakens thrilling new emotions in Mitch. And there are his still-powerful feelings for the high school sweetheart he vowed to love and honor forever. Thankfully, they’ll have the chance to find the love that was always there…

 

A shocking reunion leads to the fight of their life! A presumed dead resurrection is always a drama-filled subject that we don’t get to read all that often, so the turmoil it brought forth in this latest book in the Business of Weddings series really packed a punch. Mitch was really easy to sympathize with and I found myself pulling for him. Zoe on the other hand was really hard to like. I could sympathize with the picture she portrayed of their marriage prior to his “death”, but she was just too cold for my liking. Sometimes that type of heroine makes you strive for that happily ever after even more though because if he can still want her when she’s so distant, you know their prior love that he’s hoping to get back had to be a beautiful thing. Overall, an emotional read with relatable characters and a strong storyline!

Mayor Zoe Simmons has only recently started to move forward in her life after losing her husband a couple of years ago. They were high school sweethearts who wed young and thought they’d be together forever, but even before he went missing on an assignment and was presumed dead, their marriage was on the verge of being over. She was left with more of him than she would have ever believed possible, and that gave her the will to keep on existing even through her darkest grief.

Photojournalist Mitch Simmons knows his return from the dead is going to be a shock to his wife, so he arranges for his best friend to ease the transition when he faces her for the first time. He still has a lot of recovery to go through and isn’t anywhere near the man she was in the midst of walking away from before his accident happened. He hopes that maybe the thrill of him actually being alive will convince her to give their love another shot … and that’s even before he hears that they have a son he never even knew was on the way!
