She's everywhere.

Ex-wife.

Love of his life.

The last person in the world he wanted to see...ever.

And now that he's working beside her every day, he can't escape her. Her scent, glimpses of her smile, even the tension in the air that makes his body hum with the kind of need he'd only experienced with one person-all of it is driving him over the edge.

Brant Wellington was certain of three things:

Alcohol wasn't going to solve this.

He really was losing his F-ing mind.

And his gorgeous ex-wife was going to be the death of him.

 

Can there truly be a second chance at forever? Brant & Nikki find themselves hoping against hope that there can be! These two wounded hearts have spent their time apart being gutted and wishing things had been different. Now they are faced with the opportunity of being in the same vicinity again and have to decide whether to forget it all and go about their separate lives … or to bear their wounded souls to each other in hopes that the other might decide to stay. This is my first book by this author, and I wasn’t a huge fan of her style of writing … but I did enjoy the story as a whole. I’m not a fan of a story that leaves us to play a guessing game of what happened and fills in bits and pieces here and there. I find it easier to connect and become one with the characters if I’m living the heartache right there along side them. In all, it wasn’t my favorite style of book, but in the end I did become a fan of the characters and stood right there beside them rooting for that happily ever after!

Brant Wellington comes from a supportive family who also loves to butt their nose in where it doesn’t belong every chance they get. None of them have been able to pull his head out of the sand over the years since he split with his ex and have worried that he’s a lost cause. Finally someone comes up with a plan to make him address his heartache head-on, once and for all … but having her in front of him again, no, he’s not going to be able to handle it!

His ex-wife Nikki is also blindsided to have him all of a sudden in the same room with her. She thought she was working towards moving on and starting a new life … but she’s really just been spending these years wishing he’d turn back around and give her another chance.
