He wants a second chance. I want a divorce. To get what I want, I’ll have to give him what he does.From New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Nicole Williams:The only benefit I want from my ex is a divorce. We got married for all the wrong reasons. The one thing we got right was our separation. I should have known better than to think I could bet on forever with a guy like Canaan … to think I could bet on forever with a guy like Canaan Ford. Everything about him screamed impermanent, from his wild eyes to his restless soul.
When I left him and the small town I’d spent my whole life in, I swore I’d never go back. Never only turned out to be five years. Canaan claims he’s changed, but he hasn’t—same knowing smile, same rough demeanor, same body crafted from sin and sinew. And yet, something is different. He thinks this is his chance for redemption. My disagreement comes in the form of divorce papers dropped in his lap. He refuses to sign them. Unless . . .
He wants a month to prove himself to me—that’s his offer. One month to make me fall in love with him again and if I don’t, he’ll sign the papers. As much as I want to say no, I agree. I can suffer my ex for a short amount of time if that’s what it takes to be free of him once and for all. I fell for him once; I won’t make that same mistake twice.
He says we’re not over. I say we were over before we got started. Only one of us can be right, and I can’t let it be him.

Sweet, sexy, and complete with a second chance, Exes with Benefits is a HEA lover’s wish come true
This book was a surprise I’m not sure why I just didn’t know what to expect, but I should have realised that a book by Nicole Williams was always going to be awesome this book exceeded all my expectations and I loved everything about it.
Exes with benefits would have to be one of my favourite second chance romances that I have read, it really showed me that you should never give up hope but you also have to do what’s best for yourself as well.
I didn’t like Maggie but that’s what made me love the book she annoyed me because I wanted her to see the best in Canaan but she had been hurt and didn’t want to go down that path again and I was so angry that she couldn’t see him trying and always brought him down, but I feel that’s what he needed as well and that’s what made me love Maggie as well. She had been through her hard times in life and you could really sympathise with her.
Canaan was one hell of a special guy who had be hurt, devastated, been through so much and I think he let him self drown in his self pity and lost everything that meant anything to him. I loved everything about him he was kind, hot, selfless and he had some big swoony moments as well and he just broke my heart but he also needed to grow up and he did and he became the man we all wanted him to be. He made big mistakes but I loved how he took on those mistakes and fought for who he became and never backed down for what he wanted.
Absolutely loved this book and it deserves more than 5 stars but that’s all I can give but if you love an awesome second chance romance, riding the highs and lows of a relationship, finding out secrets and keeps you page turning until you read the book in one sitting then this is the book for you. Romance at its best loved it and I am big huge fan of Nicole Williams and this is one of my Fav books
