Gen returns to her small town, which she fled leaving behind her bad reputation in favor of starting fresh to foster personal growth, only to come face-to-face with her ex, Evan, who has barely changed a bit since she left. The two of them are pulled together like magnets, but have a history of leaving behind a little destruction in their wake. The story follows Gen and Evan as they work out how the two of them can grow together instead of fighting this pull they both feel.
The story is both a little messy and a little cute. I read this as a stand-alone without reading the first in the series without any confusion and will likely be going back for the first book eventually. I am a sucker for small-town stories.
I will say that the beginning was really a "what happened to hello...my name is..." kind of beginning. Do with that information what you will.
I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Lee Samuels and Summer Morton, via NetGalley. An advanced reader's copy of this audiobook was provided to me via NetGalley by Macmillan Audio in exchange for an honest review.
