#42 IN THE ENTIRE STORE
#1 Multicultural romance bestseller
I’m head over heels in love with my best friend. Although, I can’t pinpoint exactly when Reeve Lancaster became my entire world. Was it when we were little kids, practically brought up together, after Reeve’s mom died during childbirth and his dad subsequently fell apart? Or when I doodled his name in my school journal at age ten? Maybe it was when we became boyfriend and girlfriend at fourteen or when we shed our virginity at sixteen, pledging our forever?
I was there as his star ascended—like I’d always known it would—and there wasn’t a prouder person on the planet. As the only child of Hollywood’s golden couple, I’ve lived my life in the spotlight enough to know it wasn’t what I wanted for my future. But I sacrificed my own desires, because Reeve’s happiness meant everything to me.
Until he crushed my heart into itty-bitty pieces, forcing me to fly halfway around the world just to escape the gut-wrenching pain.
The opportunity to study at Trinity College Dublin came at the perfect moment, and I jumped at the chance without hesitation. If I’d known fate was meddling in my life, perhaps I would have chosen differently, but my future was cemented the instant I laid eyes on him.
Dillon O’Donoghue was Reeve’s polar opposite in every way, and perhaps, that’s why I felt drawn to him. He was the dark to my light. The thorn in my side, irritating me with his cold disdain, wild recklessness, and a burning rage hidden deep inside him that spoke to a silent part within me. Yet Dillon showed me what it was like to truly live, opening my eyes to endless possibilities.
What happened next was inevitable, and I only have myself to blame. He warned me, and I knew my reprieve was temporary, because there is only so far I can run.
Especially when fate hasn’t finished messing with me yet.
This is a full-length 168K-word second-chance romance novel that is book one of two. It cannot be read as a stand-alone, and it ends on a cliff-hanger. Recommended to readers aged eighteen and older.

Ok, for the storyline. I’m not going to lie. There were so many times while listening, that I wanted to turn this audiobook off. Not because it was bad or bad narration...just the opposite.
I was so invested in these characters, & the level of disdain I felt for Saffron was just that strong. I know that my blood was boiling at one point. To me, that shows EXCELLEN...

I was so invested in these characters, & the level of disdain I felt for Saffron was just that strong. I know that my blood was boiling at one point. To me, that shows EXCELLENT writing. To be able to make me despise a character to that level, pure skill. The relationship between Vivian & Reeve was just so sweet & perfect. At least until he got the one thing he really wanted. Then, maybe angst is a better adjective. I commend Vivian for sticking by his side through it all. She’s a better woman than me, ha. But when it was over, man was it over.
Then, plot twist...cue Dillon stage Dublin!
Wow...that man was sex on a stick. Their attraction was electric & so palpable. He was such a romantic when it came to the woman he wanted. Even though her time in Dublin was limited, they still went all in on making their relationship the best it could be. I was so glad that she was able to heal her heartache.
I was thrown for a loop when she went back to America, I was so torn. I’m going to stop there as to not spoil too much more, but that ending...wow. I didn’t see that coming & I can honestly say that I’m totally on board for the next installment.
