Lea Lamb and Austin Wolf were young when they fell in love.
They never imagined the future could hold anything other than together-forever.
When Lea’s father dies in a tragic fishing accident, she's
crushed under the weight of her grief and catches a glimpse of another type of
future, one she knows she's not strong enough to face.
Austin is angry. For the past fifteen years, he's believed
the woman he loved with every ounce of his soul left him without so much as a
backwards glance.
When Lea unexpectedly returns to their hometown, all the
years of heartache inside Austin bubbles to the surface and presents itself as
blinding rage.
Faced with the truth about the past, a newly discovered
secret, these former lovers will learn that if they want to have any chance at
the future they’d given up on all those years ago, they will have to rescue one
another from drowning in pain so debilitating it will leave them both fighting
to breathe.
Tonya's Review
5 Stars
This is a great standalone novel. It was a quick read for me. I loved it.
I’m a sucker for a great second chance love story, and this one hit the
spot.
Austin Wolf and Lea Lamb were high school sweethearts. It definitely wasn’t puppy love. It was real.
They were planning to get married after graduation. But then tragedy struck. Lea couldn’t handle the thought of losing
Austin the same way she lost her father.
That was the life h wanted though.
She refused to make him choose.
So she did what she thought was best, she left their small fishing town
in Alaska. She left without Austin.
It’s been fifteen years and now she’s back. She has a lot to handle and come to terms
with. So does Austin. Their love is still there, that’s not the
problem, but they do need to move on from the past.
“As for you and me, we’re inevitable, Lea, and I know you
feel it too. I’m drawn to you in a way
that even if fifty years passed, I would still crave you on a primal level.”
Excerpt
“CAN WE STOP by the liquor store on the way to dinner?” Mom
asks from the passenger seat of my car.
“Should you be drinking?” I frown then turn onto the main
road—well, really the only road in town.
“What’s it going to do, kill me?” she jokes, making me
inhale a sharp breath. “Honey,” she says quietly, and I look at her briefly,
wondering how the hell she can be so casual about this. “I’m dying. When it
will happen, only the good Lord knows, but it is happening, and there is
nothing you or I can do about it. I have made my peace with it, and I want you
to do the same.” She reaches over to pat my thigh.
“Make peace with it?” I repeat, shaking my head in
disbelief.
“Yes, make peace with it. If you think about it, I’m lucky.
I know I’m going to die. I know that sooner rather than later God is going to
come take me home, and when he does, I will be ready. I will have had a chance
to say goodbye to the people I care about and right any wrongs I’ve caused. I’m
lucky, honey.”
“What about me?” I wring my hands on the steering wheel,
feeling my chest get tight as I fight back tears.
“I love you, honey. I loved you before you were even a
sparkle in my eye, and I will always be with you. I know this isn’t easy for
you. I know there are going to be a lot of tears shed, but we’re lucky, honey.”
I press my lips together to keep from saying something I
might regret. I’m not lucky; in fact, I’m unlucky to the tenth power. How many
people have I lost, how many people do I have to loose before it’s enough.
“Oh look! Sheryl!” She yells, pulling me from my thoughts as
she reaches over, pressing the horn on my steering wheel while her other hand
shoots across me so she can wave out my window. Looking to where she’s waving
my heart begins to beat wildly
against my ribcage when I see not Sheryl, but Austin walking
into one of the many bars that litter Main Street, only it’s not just
Austin—it’s him and a woman with her arm wrapped around the back of his waist
as he holds the door open for her.
Even from the distance separating us, my lungs compress at
the beauty that is him. The years have been good to him. His hair is still
shaggy, only now a little lighter; his face is tan and covered in a beard that
makes his crystal blue eyes stand out even more. My eyes travel from his face
to his torso, which is covered in a dark green thermal that shows off the
muscles of his arms, chest, and tapered waist, then down to his denim-covered
thighs. When my gaze sweeps back up, his eyes are on me, and I see them crinkle
in confusion then realization that soon turns into anger.
“You missed the liquor store,” my mom complains as I speed
up.
