She’d thrown a dart at a map and decided wherever it landed she would move without hesitation. One night was all she had left before she’d hit the road and never look back. But little did she know just how life altering that night would be. I know I can’t ask you to … know I can’t ask you to stay, and you wouldn’t ask me to leave.
Colin Banks was an aspiring musician traveling from town to town looking for his big break.

“Losing someone is a heartache that flairs up whenever it wants. You can’t stop it, you can’t pretend it isn’t there; you have to allow it to run its course or drown out the pain with medication.”
I enjoyed this book from Savannah Stewart. It is a second chance romance.
It is heartwarming and was a quick read.
At one point I was like NOOOO I wanted to shake the ever loving heck out of Arbor. She totally made up for it though 😉 The characters are after all flawed in their own ways.
Now the secondary characters were just as enjoyable. I loved Emily. I sure Hope the author will give her her own book! I would love to read and see what happens with her.
I think my favorite part of the book is the old house.. The memories it holds. It made me sad to read what became of it. I could picture the place in my mind.
The only thing I wanted more from is to really get that connection the two characters had. I mean I got it but not in the way I wanted to. I would have liked it to be more of a I can’t live without this person connection. But that’s just me. That could be from the past that is skipped at first and we are dragged into later on.
All together this is a really good read. That leaves you wanting more and not wanting the book to end yet. I do hope to revisit these characters in the future.
Arbor Kenton decided it was time to leave everything she knew to be able to grow and get away from the pain of her past. When she stops for one drink and that becomes one night with a man she can’t forget. Colin Banks is a man that finds the woman he can never forget and following her is his one regret. Through secrets and lies Arbor and Colin’s past crashes into their future. This was a good read that left you wanting more from these characters. This was the first book I have read from this author but it won’t be my last. Great story that will stay will you long after you read the last page.
This is a second chance love story between Arbor Kent and Colin Banks. I have had the pleasure of reading this aurhor’s work before and this book just cements what a great storyteller she is. Arbor Kent is ready to leave her small town and start her life. The night before she goes to The Lounge where she meets Colin Banks. Colin Banks is making his way as a musician. Fate has brought these two characters together but it is not the right time yet. Years go by and fate throws in a twist which brings our two characters together again. Can they take this second shot and make it work? This was a really great story that had alot of emotions and twists that continued to propel the story forward. I found it to be a quick read as I did not want to put it down. Enjoy!
