The man I once loved - and lost - is back. Only this time, there’s more than just my heart on the line, there’s his daughter’s heart too.
Leo and I were high school sweethearts who promised to love each other forever. Until I discovered that love is a lie, and I broke that promise.
When my life crumbled around me, and my career as a professional ballerina ended in an instant, it seemed clear to me that I didn't get to have any of my dreams come true. Finding my way to Dogwood Cove, and rebuilding my life there as a dance teacher, was my last chance at happiness, with just one big thing missing: The part of me I gave away a long time ago, and never expected to get back.
Leo has always owned my heart, and no other man has ever stood a chance.
When he shows up in my town almost twenty years later, with a little girl I can’t help but adore, it’s impossible not to get swept up in the hope of a second chance. After all, Leo makes it clear he’s determined to break down my walls, rebuild my trust in love, and prove to me that our promise was never really broken.
But then life decides to knock me down again with a direct hit to my just starting to heal heart.
With twenty years of heartache and pain between Leo and I, can I let him stand beside me as I face the ghosts of my past, all while fighting to keep my dance studio afloat? Or will all of the hard lessons I’ve learned, only make me push him away again?
Then and Now is perfect for fans of second chance romance, steamy small town love stories, swoony single dads, and close knit friend groups. This book is for readers who want a hint of angst with a lot of spice and a guaranteed HEA for soul mates who find their way back to each other against all odds. This is the fifth and final full length novel in the Dogwood Cove series and can be read as a standalone, although the series is best enjoyed if read in order.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
