One night, eight years ago, she gave me peace.
No names.
No promises.
Just two broken people, desperate to quiet their pain and
grief.
In the morning, she was gone and had taken my solace with
her. I left for the military that day, vowing never to return to Pennsylvania.
When my father dies, I’m forced to go home to bury him.
At least I'll finally be rid of his farm, which is grown over and tangled with
memories I've fought to forget.
And that’s when I find her. She’s even more beautiful
than I remember and has the most adorable kid I’ve ever seen.
Years have passed, but my feelings are the same, and this
time I refuse to let her go. They say you can't bury the past, and they're
right. Because when long-ago secrets are exposed, rocking us both to the core,
I have no choice but to watch her walk away again . . .
Review:
This book had so much heart. I felt everything that Corinne wrote. I wanted to hug Ellie, I wanted to high five Connor. I wanted to save them all. The strength of Ellie's heart and soul become this book. She is a strong woman that has been beaten down only to find herself again. When someone you trust becomes the devil, becomes someone that doesn't deserve your love or understanding, that person slowly becomes a second thought, not your first. Connor has a strong relationship with his brothers, who I fell a little bit in love with. They have made a pact, but Connor is the first to break it, although the breaking of this pact comes with so much guilt at first. Would Connor become his own worse enemy? Ellie won't let him, her love and her heart are what help him to overcome and to love.
