Synopsis
Returning home for her father’s wedding was never going to be easy for Adele. If being sent away at eighteen hadn’t been bad enough, the mess she left behind when she made a pass at her dad’s business partner sure was.
Fifteen years older than her, Pete had been her crush for as long as she could remember. But she’d misread the situation—confusing friendliness for undying love. Awkward. Add her father to the misunderstanding, and Pete had been left with a broken nose and a business on the edge of ruin. The man had to be just as glad as everyone else when she left town.
Seven years on, things are different. Adele is no longer a kid, but a fully grown adult more than capable of getting through the wedding and being polite. But all it takes is seeing him again to bring back all those old feelings.
Sometimes first loves are the truest.
Review
Another 5-star book from Kylie Scott.
This book for me is well written and does not hold back in
relation to the forbidden romance storyline. I could not put this down and I
was enthralled from the 1st few pages and my love for this book
continued to grow from there. I enjoyed the way the author does not sugar coat
truths that are interwoven within the story. For me, this was a forbidden love story done well. I loved Adele and
Pete and the forbidden love that grows between them. Adele, Pete and her family
at the beginning are trying to mend old wounds that were created by Adele. I love Adele’s family dynamic and her
relationship with her soon be a mother in
law Shanti. Shanti and Adele’s best friend Hazel throughout the story is the only
help keep the other adults level headed when they struggled to remain calm. This
also had for me had great smutty scenes.
If you are a fan of Kylie Scott’s Stage Series and the standalone
novel Trust, then you are going to love this one.
