Sometimes love needs a second chance…
I never looked back after skipping out on my own wedding, even if it did leave me estranged from most of my family. Eight years later, I have the life I’ve always wanted. As an advertising account executive, my world is damn near perfect.
Until I come face-to-face with my past. With the man I once loved. The man who holds my future in his hands. The man who’s hell-bent on getting even with me for leaving him at the altar.
Even with all the unfinished business between us, I still love Knox Montgomery. The only problem?
He loves me…KNOT.

"Sometimes perspective comes with time."
I AM SO GLAD I read this one!!! I have been happily reading RC since she was introduced to me earlier this year, and this one has been on my TBR since I heard about it. A second chance romance with some easy going characters? Sign me up!! This book flowed, as usual, and I even got some giggle worthy moments...totally signature RC. She is a strong writer, and that showed in this book. She always has a lighter feel to her words, and her storylines are always easy to follow. I *really* enjoy her writing, and this one was no different.
"It's because there's still something here."
"It's because there's still something here."
An eight year gap between the breakup of their wedding and seeing each other in their new lives would cause one to start proffering guesses as to what actually caused said rift, and I definitely was. My head was spinning with 'what ifs'. One thing about Emma Jane was that she was NOT a weak girl....oh no. She stood up for what she believed in and backed it up 1000%. You know, unless it was Knox and you couldn't stop staring at him or remembering how things used to be! These two characters were both cognizant of this hesitant need for each other, but were caught between allowing past actions and current desires to cloud their minds. It was evident that these two were made for each other, and as Granddad would say, you can't interfere with fate. They had to learn and grow before they could be together. With Fate's path set, it was only a matter of time before they figured it out. But, old hurts don't go away easily, and neither do old feelings. Their chemistry was undeniable, and the draw was insatiable. Just them being around each other added an electrical current to the air that surrounded them. I was giddy every time touches whispered close, when eyes instinctively locked, when breaths became shallow. You could just feel their chemistry!!
Knox was a man that was in touch with his softer side, with his feelings he knew to be true. He had a naughty mouth, a good head on his shoulders, and could literally do anything. He was a man of many talents. In and out of the sheets. Yes, it's not like me to say that....but he was just delicious. He isn't like most men we read about; super alpha, boss their way around, be jealous, etc. He was refined, but dirty. A businessman in a suit, but knew how to get dirty fixing things up. He was well rounded and super delicious!! Wanna see his naughty mouth? Yes....I think you'll enjoy this here:
“Get on the bed.”
He utters this command in a low, silky tone while he strokes his cock. His eyes remain locked with mine as his hand works his length, still slick from my mouth, from root to tip. As I scoot back onto the cool, cotton sheets, the sight of Knox’s large hand sliding up and down his thick shaft in tantalizingly languid elicits a rush of wetness to my core. I press my thighs together to try and ease the pressure, the flicks of heat setting my body aflame.
“Do you want my tongue inside you?” His voice is a low growl. “Or my cock?”
My tongue darts out to wet my lips before I answer, and his eyes track its movement. “Both.”
His grin can’t be classified as anything except predatory. “I was hoping you’d say that.”
I would be remiss if I skipped over the lifesaver by the name of Becket. He swooped in when Emma Jane was at her lowest, and yet he saw something in her that he knew he could trust. The way their relationship started out, it made me smile, and it made for a lifelong friendship. I loved Becket and I fell hard for him. There wasn't anything he could do wrong, even if he forced Emma Jane's hand a few times. He knew what was right for his best friend, and he had no shame. Such an amazing character!
This book now has one of my favorite cast of characters!! They were likable and really easy to fall for....all of them, and not just the main characters. Emma Jane, Knox, Becket and Madison made this story. Seriously. LOVED them. Especially all the secondary characters: I love when there are characters that help give the story an extra oomph. They were all enjoyable and added a level to the story that made it so much fun to read!!
