He needs to prove to Harper that he can be trusted with her heart and that no matter what happened in her past, he was going to be her future.But would everything be that easy for the two of them? Of course not. That’s why Stacy Borel has taken us on this amazing journey.

Can Harper see beyond her issues from the past and open her heart? Can Kyler devote to Harper without running? Or in the end will it all be a lot of old memories to learn to live with for another day?This book was wonderful. For once the guy in the book wasn’t really the one with big huge issues and Harper’s issues seem so mild, but powerful. I really liked the way these to conversed with each other. I loved the quick wit and crazy banter and I love the emotionally charged hot scenes. These two make quite the pair and I just adored the heck out of them. They made me smile and I clung to the hope that they would end up together and happy in the end.Now, I will say I felt the final scene, before the epilogue, felt a little rushed and it happened a little quick, but that didn’t mean I didn’t enjoy this book, I just think I wanted more out of that moment. This book was well written and I am excited to read more of Stacy’s work in the future!*I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*
