REVIEW
This book came along exactly when I needed it, a nice cute contemporary romance to get me out of a reading funk.
We first meet Mia and learn some of her story, and it is not an easy one, she is not looking forward to returning to her hometown and the ghosts that linger there.
We then meet Garrett and find out his side to the story, and no situation is ever the same to to different people. When he sees Mia again for the first time it stirs up all the old emotions that he thought were gone forever.
They decide to become friends again and see how that plays out for them, and as you can imagine, it is more difficult then either of them would think. There are things that Mia is keeping from Garrett that I didn't see coming and it was a good plot twist.
I liked the character development in this book, it fit the story perfectly. Overall this story gets a 4/5 from me!
