Blurb:
From USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke comes a witty romance about first love and second chances.
After being burned by her dream job in New York City, sports journalist Neely Kimber suddenly finds herself jobless and paying a long-overdue visit to her hometown in Tennessee. Her plan? Relax, reset, and head back up the corporate ladder. There’s just one unexpected step. Neely’s back in Dogwood Lane for barely a day when she sees the man she ran from nine years ago: the bad boy next door who was her first kiss, her first love, and her first heartbreak.
Devoted single dad Dane Madden knows he hurt Neely in the worst way. He’s got a lot to make up for. And as passionate as their reconnection is, it’s a lot to hope for. Having her back in his arms feels so right. But falling in love all over again with a woman who wants to live a world away is bound to go so wrong.
What’s it going to take for Neely to give him—and Dogwood Lane—just one more chance?

My Review
⭐⭐⭐
I love Adriana Locke’s writing. I really do. But I’m sad to say this book was just not for me. There is one thing I can't read in romance books, *spoiler* (anything that involves cheating) it turns me off of the whole story. I know some readers don’t mind it, and others even like it, but I personally won’t read a book, even by a favorite author of mine, if this theme is a big or small part of the story. It’s makes it really hard for me to stay in the story.
But by no means does that mean I’m going to stop reading this authors books. This one just personally wasn’t for me. I will say Adriana Locke knows how to write great banter and complex characters. She’s great at writing small town, blue Collar. And I will definitely be there to pick up her future books.
