Synopsis
Aidan
Morgan made many mistakes in his young life, but moving to Redemption gave him
a chance to wash away his poor choices and repair his relationship with his
siblings.
Ethan
Ashworth had the blond good looks of a hometown football star, but the picture
didn’t match the heart and mind of the young man living inside.
The
new kid in town with a history of getting into trouble and an unlikely geek don’t
often make a match, but a unique friendship forms. With on searing kiss on
graduation day, promises of a future are made. One day later Aidan is gone, and
Ethan’s heart is left broken.
Redemption, Maine. Never had the name
of a town been more apt or mocked a person more...twice.
Thirteen
years ago Aidan disappeared in the dead of night, but he is home now. Aidan has
come home to take the job of chief of the fire department and to reconnect with
his brother and sister. He wants Ethan back too. Unable to forget their kiss,
Aidan wants to explain why he went away, and he wants a second chance to win
Ethan’s heart.
Too
bad for Aidan, Ethan isn’t so quick to forgive and forget. He dealt with a
life-changing crises after Aidan went away. His hurt and anger at how Aidan
left him alone had resurfaced, bringing the controlled man back to life. Ethan
will listen to Aidan’s reasons for leaving when he’s damn good and ready ...
and not a minute before.
Redemption, Maine. A place for second
chances. Will the town—and Ethan Ashworth—give Aidan Morgan another shot to get
it right?
Thoughts
Isn’t
it nice when the blurb of a book is actually the book rolled in one?
Though
when push comes to shove there’s a lot more happening, and yet....
Hurt,
anger, pain, misunderstandings, pain, frustration, need, want, pain, fear,
love, loss, unbearable anguish, passion, pain, forgiveness, understanding, explanations
and a happily-ever-after after too much time, and to many tears.
That’s
this book, that’s the story. And man, is it worth everything you go through
while reading it.
I’m
actually a little...pissed at myself, I suppose, that I didn’t get this one
first, because of the fact that some of the things that would have been more
surprising was handed to me with book 2.
Another
reason I wish I got this first....it’s so fucking good. So much better. The
story is rolled out from the start to the end. You got to see them as the teens
they were, and then it jumping into the time of the book.
Most
of it played out around Ethan and though held a lot more voice of Aidan, Ethan
was the plot, storyline and the climax threw the book.
It
was his pain that we felt, not only from him himself but also from Aidan as the
guilt about what should have been and his content needed to validate his reasoning’s
in leaving. Which to me were a very teen reason. And yet...it was also an adult
reason when you’re not an adult yet.
But
that doesn’t matter. It’s all about getting Ethan back, while Ethan held his head
high and tried to be pissed and hard when his life was crumbling in on him—or more
so his emotions.
It
had some of the best fucking cry scenes that I have read for a long time. One
rolled into the other, leaving you just enough time to settle yourself before
something else pulls at your heart.
It’s
a book to read, one that’s quick, easy to follow and makes you feel happy at
the end that everything worked its’ way out.
One
thing that did annoy me was that nether men could really figure out the height
and size of the other one. it was confusing in a way that shouldn’t have been
but it was all threw the book and it annoyed me enough that I can remember it
now, and felt like the bitch needed putting out there.
Other
than that, it’s a good book. And it defiantly has put Dane in a new light that
will have me picking up the books just because I liked these that muck. Her writing
style was good and she didn’t fall into repeating itself or overly describing the
characters to you. Which I liked even more.
