Summary

Their love was supposed to last forever. But when life delivered blow after devastating blow, Yasmen and Josiah Wade found that love had its limits...it couldn't save their marriage.

Yasmen wasn't prepared for how her life fell apart, but she's finally starting to find joy again. She and Josiah have found a new rhythm: co-parenting their two kids and running a thriving business together. Yet, like magnets, they're always drawn back to each other, and now they're beginning to wonder if they're truly ready to let go of everything they once had.

One stolen kiss leads to another...and then more. It's hot. It's illicit. It's good - until it starts to hurt again. As old wounds reopen, Yasmen and Josiah wonder if it is too late for them to find forever.

Or could they be even better, the second time around?

Award-winning and bestselling 'powerhouse' author Kennedy Ryan is at her absolute best in this compelling, scorching novel about hope and healing, and what it truly means to love for a lifetime (USA Today).

painful but healing

Kennedy Ryan is a masterful story teller, her words are lyrical and being emotions and connections to characters other authors don't bring. This story is traumatic to check your TW. But as ever Ms Ryan does an amazing job with a difficult topic

BEST AUDIBLE BOOK I'VE LISTENED TO

OMG. I don't even know where to start. Kennedy Ryan is truly a gifted author. This book is heartbreaking, life affirming, uplifting, sad, hopeful, funny, joyful... I experienced ALL the emotions listening to this. Wesleigh Siobhan and Jakobi Diem are excellent narrators as per usual. Sensitive subjects so delicately handled ad only Kennedy Ryan has the skill to do. If you like her 'Flow', 'Still' series, then you'll love this book. I'm pre-ordering the next book in this series.
