Beautiful! This story is quintessential Ilsa Madden-Mills, a perfect combination of romance, steam, sweetness, and funny. The tropes of second chance and small town are like kryptonite for me, I can’t resist them!
Everly was best friends with Becket since they were kids, she loved him but he kept some distance. So, she turned to Carson, their other best friend, and they started dating. Until the sorry incident that caused the basketball team to lose the championship game. Everly was blamed, and she spent the whole senior year shunned by both Becket and Carson, and bullied by the rest of the school. She left Rose, TN, and hasn’t been back in ten years.
She received a Valentine letter inviting her back to Rose, and she came back, successful with her podcast Travels with Everly, intent to cover the town’s Kiss Lottery program. Here she met with her gang, Tabby, Fritz and Troy, and they went back to their usual haunts. Beckett is a mystery, neither glad nor angry. He did include her in his latest mystery as the villain, so she has a bone to pick with him. He has been keeping secrets from her, which explained the distance, and they are revealed during the story.
The story evolves just how I like it, with remembrances, yearning for what could have been, regrets over hurts dealt, melancholy over the loss of their mothers. Becket works on forgiveness from Ever, and their story evolves sweetly, as if meant to be. He gives some beautiful speeches to Ever, super romantic and full of love and regrets and longing. We also have the mean girl who is after Becket and hates Everly, fun times!
The story was beautiful and funny and sweet, I loved reading this and enjoying such a wonderful romance.
