I love second chance romances. I enjoy seeing people come back together after years of separation for one reason or another and making things work the way that they should. However, in some romances that comes at the expense of a third person and that is a part of this story as well. After suffering a horrific incident Cam decides that to be safe and secure with someone that she doesn't fully love is better than risking what could happen if she pursued what she passionately held in her heart. Although I empathize with Cam and understand why she made the choices that she made, I am glad that her husband Marcus recognizes that he deserves more than what Cam is capable of giving him. Sometimes even the good guys have to think of what's best for themselves. Unfortunately, in this case there are also innocent children affected. The result of her husband leaving is a catalyst for Cam having to face and make some hard choices.
Holden is Cam's regret and desire, but she has to decide if she can overcome her fears and painful past so that she can have a happy future. Cam makes some questionable decisions along the way and there are circumstances that definitely left me a bit uncomfortable. The story is well written and I felt that I got to run the whole gamut of emotions with Cam and Holden. This was a well done contemporary romance.
Happy Reading!
