Leaving everyone behind that she does truly and dearly love her family, her boyfriend, her friends. But what Dani learns is that even though she has left , her life is still not as perfect as she thought it would be. She learns the hard way that life is where you make it and not what you do. After losing her father and blaming herself because she wasn't there, she heads home and tries to deal with his death. Now with only her mother left she is determined not to make the same mistakes as she thinks she made with her dad. Somehow she feels if she was with her dad that he never would have died. So she sets out to be everyones saviour.

Her first love the only man she has ever loved that way. Gage. Gage is sweet and loving and might just be what she thinks she wants, that is until she meets Holden. And wait to you see how she meets this gorgeous hotness of a man!!!Holden has his own problems he fell in love with his best friend and got his heart handed right back to him, shattered into pieces, he is tired of one night stands and a different girl in his bed all the time.Once he left his home town because of his cousin, he joined the Navy after finishing his time in the military he starts working with his dad in the family business, and starts to travel around doing different jobs for him, he can spend up to 6 mths or less where ever he goes, after going to a new town, and spends some time in a bar with his friend Rusty, he meets Dani.

They stare at each other and something passes between the two of them. Leaving them to never be the same ever.  He is captured by her and her attitude. And definitely wants to get to know her better.He is determined to get to know her better, and Dani is just as love struck by him and wants to get to know him better too, but with her first love back in her life what will she do? Will she break Gage's heart again and pursue this new thing with Holden? Or will she finally give Gage what he has always wanted her love?Erika has done it again! With this beautiful love story about Holden, we met Holden when he was in love with Jesika his best friend, and we didn't get to know much about him other then the reason he left town, and when he finally came back to claim the person he thought he was in love with, it was too late. She was already with someone else.  Holden is a beautiful soul, he has been hurt, but you can see the love that he has to give, he is such an open book and shares his life freely. Dani is just the girl for him, she thinks that she has to save everyone else and never thinks of herself, she gives and gives. Even with Gage it is always about fulfilling his needs and what she thinks he wants. Holden gives her what she needs, he gives her his love with nothing attached and shows her that she needs to live her life for her sometimes. And that it is ok to love someone and not have to be their Saviour.The story kept me captivated and kept me turning the pages, and at the end it left me satisfied and wanting more, just what a book is suppose to do. It made me fall in love with the Characters and connect with them. I felt apart of Dani from the moment that I met her. And Holden has always held a place in my heart from when he first appeared.Dani learns to love without strings, she learns to follow her dreams, without guilt. And most of all she learns that life can be just how you dreamed it could be. Perfect.Thank you Erika for another amazing book .. I can't wait to read what you have coming up next for us.  <3
