Loved this book! This is a tale of love lost.....Lily lost the love of her life, Jack, when he left after a family tragedy. Lily couldn't reach him and had no idea where he was, which forced her to handle everything alone, including the miscarriage of their baby. Then, five years later, he walks back into her life and wants to pick back up again - insisting that he still loves her and has been faithful to her.

This one tugged at my heartstrings, even making me cry near the end - a true tearjerker. It's a very emotional story that made me feel as though I was part of it and invested in the outcome. Kudos to the author for creating such a heartfelt book that reached out and touched me.

Romance fans will love this book. There is a lot of story packed into its pages and it should not be missed. Put this one at the top of your TBR. Additional note, while this is part of a series, it is a stand alone novel. I haven't read book one and don't think it detracted from the story, however, I enjoyed this one so much that I've added the first book to my TBR.

I always enjoy surprise baby plots. Add in a second-chance romance and we have a winner. In this story, Jack Bailey has returned to his family after a terrible tragedy led him to leave his family and fiance, Lily, and go away. He still loves her and has vowed to do what he can to win her back.

Luckily for him, she succumbs his first night back and the result is a baby. Lily has been terribly hurt that the man she loved and had agreed to marry left without a word to her for five years and now wants to rekindle their romance.

It is a good set-up and I felt for these characters. However, it all gets resolved very quickly. It’s as if the author set up the situation and then decided to then declared it all resolved. I would have liked a bit more.

I was given a free ARC of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I love stories like this- rekindling old loves and oops a surprise baby. I hate I hadn't read book 1 of this series because I feel it would have been a tear jerker- this one was. Jack was pitiful in his heartbreak over losing his twin and nephew. To see that face everyday in the mirror would have to be tough. Although I sympathized with him, the way he left and the heartbreak he left Lily with was terrible. Lily has had a tough go of things during the 5 years Jack has been gone and she cannot let him back in her life. She cannot risk him running away and leaving her again.

These two go through a gamut of emotions to heal from love and loss and finding it all again.

Great story.
