Recommendation
I really enjoyed this book. It has romance, humor and so much emotion. Kacey has been madly in love with her best friend’s older brother Jake for most of her life. He never felt that way about her until he comes home for a visit and finds out she is now engaged to his best friend. Suddenly, she is no longer the pesky little girl he knew growing up. Jake and Kacey’s up and down journey is filled with passion and angst and you feel it every page you turn. I also couldn’t help but fall in love with Reilly and Heath. They gave the story such depth. Carey Heywood made each character so realistic, it was hard for me to decide who I wanted the best outcome for. Seriously, a great read from beginning to end.
Excerpts
"I kissed you because I know I'll never deserve all you have to offer, and I wanted to experience it at least once."
"Something is obviously wrong with me because even knowing she was kissed roughly by someone other than me, less than two minutes ago, I want her."
Publisher synopsis
He was my everything.
I loved him.
For over twenty years.
And everyone knew, including him.
But he never loved me back.
Not once.
Not ever.
So I moved on.
Until now.
Now he's back, and wants to make me his.
He's everything I've ever wanted.
I should be happy.
But there's one problem.
My fiancé.
