There are some mistakes we make that we will regret for the rest of our lives. For Christian, it was the day he betrayed Elizabeth.
Christian Davison has a plan for his life. He is determined to become an attorney and to one day take his place as partner in his father's law firm. Nothing will stand in his way, not even Elizabeth Ayers and their unborn child.
After Christian cuts her from his life, Elizabeth spends the next five years struggling to provide for her daughter and willing to sacrifice anything to give her child a safe, comfortable life.
For five years, Christian has regretted the day he walked away from his family and will do anything to win them back just as Elizabeth will do anything to protect her daughter from the certain heartache she believes Christian will bring upon them.
When Christian wrestles his way into their lives, Elizabeth is faced with asking herself if it is possible to forgive someone when they've committed the unforgiveable and if it is possible to find a love after it has been buried in years of hate. Or are there some wounds that go so deep they can never heal?
They say everyone deserves a second chance.
My Review:
This book was pretty darned entertaining! I mean, Christian made a wrong choice, and then now he's dealing with the consequences, and trying to fix his mistake. Which makes things hard for Elizabeth, she doesn't want her daughter-or herself-to get hurt, but kids should at least have the opportunity to try to know their parents, right?
I enjoyed the relationships in this book, they were the main thing in this book. And what people will do for them, how they can harm them, and how they maybe can, or should, repair them. They worked on them, because they require work!
This book was a bit hard to read. Christian has a long journey to go on, to deal with the bad emotions he's feeling because of the choices he made, and while they lead to something good, he still has to deal with them!
I'm conflicted on this being a series. On one hand, that means more time with these characters. On the other, it means wreaking the pretty happy ending that they got. And a new book would at least shake it up, because a book without conflict is not a good book!
I enjoyed this book a ton, it was really nice to be able to read it!

A.L. Jackson first found a love for writing during her days as a young mother and college student. She filled the journals she carried with short stories and poems used as an emotional outlet for the difficulties and joys she found in day-to-day life.
Years later, she shared a short story she’d been working on with her two closest friends and, with their encouragement, this story became her first full length novel. A.L. now spends her days writing in Southern Arizona where she lives with her husband and three beautiful children. Her favorite pastime is spending time with the ones she loves.
