The time is now. New emotional and hopeful standalone novel by New York Times bestselling author S.L. Scott. I'd almost forgotten what it felt like to smile, to laugh, and to really live.
Until I met him. Heart-stoppingly handsome. Totally forbidden. Keats Matthews looked at me like I was something special. He was escaping his past. I wanted to escape my present. Together, we fell hard and fast and knew we had found forever.
Or so we thought ... Six years later, his shoulders are broader than I remembered, his charming smile thaws my frozen heart, and it's so tempting to run my fingers through his hair like I did years ago. But it's the tenderness and warmth in his brown eyes that remind me of the forever we almost shared.
It's magic when we're together again. Our chemistry has only magnified. Seeing him, confident and more irresistible than ever, has me falling for him all over again and hoping for a second chance.
But he still believes our timing was off before.
He's wrong. It was the secret I kept hidden that was our undoing. Time hasn't healed old wounds, and not everything hidden has come to light. When it does, we'll stand together or fall apart. Either way, we must find out.
Author's Note: This contemporary standalone packs in the romance, heart-swoons, and love that never dies, but does not contain cheating or love triangles. It's one love in this book. Two souls that are meant for each other who will have to overcome obstacles to be together.
