Sooner or later the past catches up with you and then you have to face the truth...
Fourteen years is a long time to pretend someone doesnāt exist, especially if that person is responsible for crushing your heart. But pretending in a small town where everyone knows your backstoryāor thinks they do? Impossible.
Beckett Durrell isnāt the same lovestruck fool heād been all those years ago when heād believed in destiny and ever-after. At thirty-five, heās not interested in meant-to-be or long-term, though he almost made it to the altar eleven months ago. But he couldnāt spit out the āI doā and refuses to think itās because of her, the woman heās never forgotten.
Katrina Carlisle knew she married the wrong man long before she discovered his first affair. Sheād been too heartbroken after the breakup with Beck Durrell to notice the new manās slick words, or the fact that his mother seemed more interested in her than he was. After a disastrous marriage, sheās now divorced with two small children, working a low-paying job, living in a tiny rental, and wondering how her life had gone so wrong.
When destiny orchestrates a plan for Beck and Katrina to cross paths, thereās no pretending the attraction isnāt there. But the distrust? The fear of getting hurt again? Thatās definitely there, too, and itās going to take a lot more than simple attraction to get past it.
Can Beck and Katrina trust each other enough to open their hearts for a second chance at happily-ever-after?
