Cocktails and Books received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

This is a heartwarming and emotional story with complex characters that have a lot of emotional baggage. It’s an engaging small town romance and a second chance for two people to learn they can love and be happy together. 

 

The small town of Long Acre is still trying to move forward after a high school shooting changed the town forever.  Ash and Kincaid have never been able to forget they are survivors of a shooting at their high school. Years later, they are still dealing with survivor’s guilt and miss all the friends they lost on that horrible day that changed their lives.

 

Ash left town immediately after high school and he and Kincaid have both taken different roads in dealing with their grief.  Unfortunately, along the way, they lost their close friendship. They reconnect again when Ash returns to Long Acre and starts working on a project with Kincaid.

 

In high school Ash was a nerd, but he has grown into a handsome, charming successful writer and Kincaid is finding it difficult to resist him.  Kincaid is outgoing and fun loving and Ash has never stopped caring for her. Ash and Kincaid deserve to find happiness again and hopefully, they can find it together. I loved watching them fall in love and discover happiness again.
