My ex returns the same way he left: like a ghost.
I hate him for breaking my heart, but I'm still aching to be in his bed.


It’s been 10 years since he disappeared.
My brother convinces him to come back for a visit.
At supper, our eyes meet, and the world stops just for a second.

So much has changed.
He’s rich, divorced, and a single daddy.

My brother says to take it slow, but he’s irresistible.
Long glances turn into electric touches, and it’s not long before I give in to everything I thought I lost.
If I can get him to stay, I’ll have the family I’ve always wanted.

Of course, nothing goes to plan.
He wants to revitalize the town in his pushy, billionaire ways.
As a lawyer, I’m going to fight him.

The only problem: if I win my case, I’ll lose my forever.

    Aimee Bronson has written a -star book. This is the story of Kayla and Andrew. Kayla and Andrew had been a couple back in high school until he and his family left town. He didn't let her know they were leaving and he didn't even keep in touch with her. Now years later, he comes back to town with his daughter Ellie for the summer. Kayla doesn't know that he is back in town. She goes to her father's house for a cookout and sees him there. All the hurt from his leaving comes back and she doesn't want to have anything to do with him. All she wants is to know why he left and treated her like she was someone he didn't want to know. Andrew wants to talk to her and she agrees to have dinner with him. The dinner doesn't go the way that Andrew wanted. They talk about what they have been up to but nothing else. Things happen and they end up sleeping together but after, Kayla avoids him all she can. It is a little hard since he rented the house next to her. She still has feelings for him but she knows that he is leaving again to go back to New York. Things happen and they start seeing each other. He starts to think that he may want to stay in town and comes up with a plan to move his business there. Things turn bad when Kayla finds out what he is planning to do. She is a lawyer and she is now going to try and stop him from doing what he wants to do. It takes Andrew a little while to understand why Kayla tried to stop him and he changed his plans a little.
    Will Kayla and Andrew get back together after he tells her of his new plans?
    This was a wonderful book and I would recommend it to anyone.

    This is the second book in this series and it is just as good as the first one. Told in first person POV by the main male and female characters, you really feel like you are there with them as they take their journey of second chances, mending broken hearts, standing up for what they believe in, and building a family together.

    I love that Andrew was a single father who loved and cherished his daughter, but never forgot about Kayla. I was hooked with this book from the time Kayla described herself with her nose pushed up against the window of her car trying to figure out if the hunk of a man walking with the beautiful little girl was the man who stole her heart and broke it all those years ago. I love that Kayla was sneaky about getting Andrew to see her point when it came to their conflict. I love the last straw it took to pull her from fighting her feelings for Andrew and give them a chance.

    This is the second book I’ve read from Amiee and I must say, it usually takes more than two books for me to really be hooked on an author, but Amiee is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

  • Wendy

    Kayla and Andrew were a couple when she was finishing high school. His father moved his company to New York and Andrew went with him, without telling Kayla he was leaving or even saying goodbye. Her heart was broken, and she's sworn to never forgive him. Several years have passed and Andrew is spending the summer in town, working remotely and visiting with friends and working remotely. Andrew is invited to a barbecue at his old friend James' house. James just happens to be Kayla's brother as well and neither was aware the other would be there. Kayla still refuses to talk to Andrew, but then she discovers that the house he rented is right next door to her. Soon she decides to be an adult and they discuss the past. Once they are dating (and more), Andrew sees how he can update the town and make things better for the townspeople. But Kayla sees things much differently and it breaks them apart. Can they see their way to getting back together or are they both too stubborn to try and find middle ground?

  • Maz

    I absolutely ravished this book in one setting.
    It was everything a Romance book needs.
    The angst, the emotions, the heat and of course the conflict and hurt.
    Andrew broke Kaylas heart and left her 10 yrs ago. He was now back with his beautiful little daughter.
    Once they meet again, all their feelings come back hitting them like a truck.
    Andrew is determined to win her back.
    Eventually they find themselves and get together. But he hurt her once, can Kayla really trust him again?
    Find out if they do manage to get that HEA they both deserve.

    I loved all the secondary characters and the whole family feeling.
    Great easy read and the series is continuing to be fab.

  • Lisa H

    I'm new into the world of Aimee, but have fallen in love!! She writes with such description it compels me to keep turning the pages.

    I enjoy knowing the couple had history, but fast forward to how life moves on and let them reconnect. I enjoy how they slowly reconnect, but giving that years of a firm history doesn't require some of the nitty gritty we sometimes expect. These two made a great couple (And can I be honest....) I love that there was some honest conflict on how they best thought they could grow the community.

    If you are in for a read to feed your need for heat, steam, comfort, familiar, and some good ol fashioned disagreements.....this is the book for you!!

    Who doesn't sometimes hope they get a second chance with a lost love? Well this book, that story comes to life. Will Kayla and Andrew find their way back to each other?

    One thing I don't like in books like this is everything is perfect, the second chance love happens like a fairy tale. Now that's a fun thing to read and see happen, but not always.

    This story is real. It could be your sister's story or yours. You find your way back to a past love and get a second chance, but it's not all perfect. There is thrife, conflict, and they have to WORK on the relationship. Great book I applaud Aimee and look forward to reading more of her work.

  • Natasna

    A great small town story about a second chance and the brother's best friend. In high school, Kayla and Andrew dated for awhile. After 10 years, Andrew comes back as a millionaire with a daughter Kayla is now a lawyer. Kayla is hesitant about having Andrew back in her life. Still, they can't stay away from each other, and they start dating again. There are lots of funny, sad, and hot moments. The characters are very real and easy to like. I kept turning the pages to find out what was going to happen next. Love their happy ending.

    I got a free book, and I'm leaving this honest review because I want to.

  • Yareth

    love it❣️

    Love this story from beginning to end. A second chance between Andrew and Kayla, to get back together. The plot is good, it has the touches to entertain you on every page, the characters are good, and the development of the situation I liked. There was love between them but they had spent a lot of time apart and had to learn to know and understand each other again. Not forgetting that Andrew had a beautiful girl who from the first moment adored Kayla. A beautiful HEA.

  • Philippa

    I loved everything about this second chance romance between Kayla and Andrew. After a ten year separation as young lovers, Andrew is back in his small hometown with his daughter Ellie for the summer.

    I loved the reconnection between the couple and the family dynamics of the characters of the town; extended families, close friends and everyone looking out for each other.

    Bronson delivers a heartfelt story that is truly enjoyable. I received this book as an ARC and this is my honest review.

  • Berta Greenleaf Richardson

    Andrew and Kayla were together when they were teenagers but he ghosted her when he left for college. Now he is back and with a young daughter. Kayla tries to stay away because she is afraid she will get hurt again. He is willing to try anything to get her back. This book has all the good stuff including, second chance romance, single dad, billionaire and a wounded heroine. What's not to love.

    I received this book as an Arc and am leaving a review voluntarily.

    After ten year Andrew returns to his hometown with his daughter to spend the summer. The way he left without saying anything to Kayla his girlfriend at the time, he knew he had to set things right. Finally opening up to her he thinks everything is healing until his world come crashing down again. But it’s not entirely his fault. Kayla is just too unmoving in her ways.

  • Stacey K

    Andrew and Kayla take us on quite the entertaining ride. Andrew left 10 years ago without saying goodbye to Kayla, she swore she'd never forgive him. When Andrew comes back to town things get interesting really quick. The chemistry is definitely still there but can Kayla truly forgive him. Cue the drama and angst as they work thru their past and figure out what the future holds. You will absolutely enjoy this read.
