Disappearing without a word, Eden Richardt fled from her naïve former life in Oregon to start anew in the Midwest. Being a morning radio show host, she’s got a lot going for her except finding someone to share her life with. In that aspect, no one seemed to compare to the one. Having absolutely no desire to step foot back in her hometown of Cottage Grove, her decision was swayed with an invitation to her high school reunion and solidified after receiving a letter from her first and only love from her past.
Living his life the best way he knows how, Baylor Jenkins spends his time running the family plumbing business, after giving up his dream to be an Architect, and raising his almost teenage daughter solely without the help of his ex-wife. In the back of his mind he knows something was missing from his otherwise enjoyable life. But that something was actually a someone who disappeared after graduation; a former best friend turned lover.
Locking eyes after fifteen long years raises deep emotions and unanswered questions:
What happened to make Eden run?
Could their love for each other still exist?
Or will their past time together be nothing more than a memory?
I received a copy of the book from the author for an honest review.
This was my first Amber Nation book and boy have I been missing out. She knows how to tell a story. I was hooked and couldn’t put it down. I love second chance stories that give someone the opportunity to undo a wrong. Baylor and Eden even Dean needed closure and some communication lessons after everything that happened to them.
Baylor, Eden and Dean were the best of friends growing up they were the Three Musketeers. Eden was one of the guys and thought Baylor and Dean could only ever see her as there BFF. That is until graduation night it all changed for Baylor and Eden and both couldn’t be happier. Then the next day Eden was gone without a trace or explanation why she left. This hurt Baylor and Dean. 15 years latter Baylor now divorced and has a wonderful daughter finds himself getting ready for his class reunion wondering if he will ever see Eden.
Eden left her little town with no intentions of going back. She is now has her own morning radio show and loves her job. Well except when her meddling mother and co-host have a great idea to help her find “the one”. One day on air she receives a special invite to her class reunion and now has to decide if she will go back home. Loved seeing Baylor, Eden and Dean reunite and finding out all their secrets, yes even Dean had one. The best part was seeing Eden go head to head with her high school bully. To see the bond Eden was able to make with Baylor’s daughter in such a short amount of time was amazing. The relationship Eden has with her VFF spunky hairdresser is something everyone should have. I’m so excited for this series and need to know more about Dean and this spitfire hairdresser.
