Brandt Meyer is sure that he’ll never make up for what he didn’t see about his wife when his kids were young. She’s out of the picture now, and while that comes with relief, being a single dad of two young teens is no joke. Finding time for love is not part of his plan. When Ashley moves into a friend’s house partway through her law degree, she’s immediately intrigued by the hot single dad next door. With a best friend's ashes in a jar in her room, and a million reasons she’s determined to finish law school and put abusers in jail, she’s also decided she wants to get to know this neighbor better. Just when Brandt and Ashley find some common footing in the way they feel, Ashley goes to her internship, opens a file, and it destroys everything she’s learned about the family next door. Both Brandt and Ashley are in a fight to forgive their pasts, navigate the present, and find a way to hold on to the future they started together. But with everything on the line, and so much to overcome, they begin to wonder if their happily ever after is worth the struggle.
Brandt Meyer is the oldest of the Meyer Brothers. This is the third book in the Meyer Brothers Romance series. A version of this book was previously published as After All.
