Filled with all the emotions, the connections and the love.
I loved Liam and Kennedy’s second chance, first love romance with a side of stalker. This heart warming story will give you all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. Expect to laugh, cry, swoon, grit your teeth, bite your knuckles, and cheer. Liam is a fire fighter is Destiny Falls, a small town in New Zealand. Kennedy is an actress from LA. Eleven years ago Liam and Kennedy were in love and planning to make their life together in Destiny Falls. Unfortunately a family tragedy resulted in Kennedy ending their relationship without an explanation. Kennedy has now finished the obligations holding her in LA and has returned to Destiny Falls in hopes of finding the happy life she dreamed of. As Liam and Kennedy journey to their HEA, there are a lot of truths to learn and accept, a lot of hurdles to overcome, and a lot of baggage to unpack. All the while Kennedy is being harassed by a stalker. Liam and Kennedy were beautifully portrayed as real, relatable people who have flaws, but are really just trying to do their best as messy humans. The story included sweet moments, steamy scenes, chuckles, supportive friends and family, painful pasts, mystery, light danger, and all the heart squeezing love. The story was well written and included witty dialogue, three dimensional characters who grow, and an engaging storyline. I especially enjoyed the plot devices of the unsent text and email messages as a glimpse into the MCs mindset while they were separated for more than a decade. While the bad guy in the story was fairly easy to guess, that did nothing to diminish the enjoyment of the story. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
