Jennifer L. Armentrout (also known as J. Lynn), New York Times bestselling author of the Wait for You saga, delivers a new novel of first love, second chances, and scorching chemistry.
Eleven months ago, bartender and weird-shirt-wearing extraordinaire Roxy and Officer Reece Anders had a one night stand. Well, kind of. She's been in love with him since she was fifteen, and he wishes that night they shared never happened. She's sworn him off forever, but the past and future collide, forcing her to rely on the one man who broke her heart not once, but twice.
Her best friend since birth has been in a long-term care facility since he became a victim of a hate crime years ago, and the person who put him in there is out of prison and wanting to make amends with him and Roxy. She's not sure she has room for forgiveness in her and when she begins to receive frightening messages and is on the receiving end of escalating violence, she thinks she knows who is to blame. The man who already destroyed one life already.
But Reece isn't convinced. The threats are too personal, and even if Roxy doesn't believe him, he's not willing to let anyone hurt her. Including himself. He's already messed up more than once when it comes to Roxy and he's not going to let history repeat itself.

Dnf Weird conservative vibes, such as mentioning the statue of slave owning president Andrew Jackson during a sex scene?! Laughed so hard! Wish this author would use her gift for smut for good instead of this purple hearts kind of bullshit. The book is explicitly anti-homophobia, though, pleasently surprised about that, but at the same time copaganda, soooo... My question, after listening to an hour and then skipping through the first half before abandoning it, is: does it even matter anymore? Indeed, it does not. Do yourselves a favor and skip it, read Courtney Milan instead or something.
